First off, sending someone an e-mail is not like sending spam. Spam is often created by a machine and asks for credit cards and personal information. Yes, I would delete that. Not something someone sent personally that involved wanting to get to know them.
A lot of the messages that women get on here are in no way "personal". They're generic cut and pasted mesages.
quote:
Second, real world doesn't excuse not replying AFTER they read it. I have a job that has me working from dawn til dusk like many other people, and then I come home to a ton of school work that I need to get done, but when I get the time to read a message, I reply IMMEDIATELY.
Yes, but you aren't comparing like and like. Let's assume you're really popular on here. Let's say you're getting one message a day. Whereas it's really not unusual for women to get three pages.
quote:
Third, If someone sends you a message who could even be all the way on the other side of the world, you can still tell them a reply of "no thanks. good luck though".
Yeah, you could do. But why the fuck should I? I owe strangers absolutely nothing, regardless of what ridiculous overblown sense of entitlement they may or may not have.
quote:
Fourth, this website was made to bring people who like S&M together and form relationships (be they sub and dom, plutonic friends, or romantic partners). Coming onto a site that is designed for that, claiming you want to meet people, tell them your interests, and then ignore when someone is trying to make any form of connection is ridiculous.
No it's not. They specifically do not want to make any connection with you. That's entirely consistent. The fact I'll talk to some people does not mean I'll talk to everyone. You should only be messaging people who specifically guarantee a reply if that's what you want. Otherwise, it's your fault for projecting your assumptions on other people without justification.

And fifth, the fact that so many of you want to claim I am having a "tantrum" for asking for a bit of common curtisey has been quite a let-down. I am mature enough to accept a reject or two, but I am irritated that our socitiety has developed such a rude streak that no one wants to reply to a simple friendly message.
It's not that "no one" does. Back when I was using CM more frequently, I got a fair few replies. If you aren't, you need to write better messages as opposed to blaming others for your failure.
Because, in all honesty, I also think this says something negative about our society, but it's very different then your conclusion. I think it's irritating that people are arriving online without the ability to understand that expecting strangers to talk to them is an unreasonable assumption of intimacy. And I also think it's a sad reflection of society that there are people who are so pitiful that they feel the need for complete strangers to validate their existence. Get a hobby or something.
Wow you start one post out of boredom, and everyone jumps on the idea of creating their own opinions about it. I think I will end it here though because I need to focus on life. Marviouls waltz there apocalypso. You did a fine display of "douchebag with a chip on his shoulder" for that I give you the golden crap trophy. Personally, I just wanted to see how many of you would dance on this topic, and like moths to a flame, you came a fluttering in. weather you are right or wrong means nothing because you gave me a better show than when I told that guy in the comic book store that Spider-Man was my favorite DC hero. Bravo everyone Bravo!!
