Take into account that the women who have spoken out about their discontent of receiving one-line emails generally have a very descriptive profiles that clearly spell out many points of interest & areas of compatibility. Many (myself included) have specifically spelled out that one line emails will be discarded or ignored. I do this because one line emails give me (the recipient) nothing to build upon & no way to find compatibilities or a way to determine what they found interesting about me. Here is a construct of a commonly sent one liner...
"You have beautiful eyes (Goddess, Mistress, Ma'am, insert preferred term here) ... I'd like to know more about you."
Well my god, if it hadn't of been for this one line email I would have never known that my eyes were attractive... What this one line email tells me is that someone saw my pic & completely skipped reading all the information about me already provided. This doesn't really support the second statement about wanting to know more about me.
I completely understand what you're saying and don't at all disagree. I've had similar experiences on other sites, particularly those that were non-lifestyle specific.
I particularly dislike it when someone tells me they "found my profile interesting" without telling what it was in my profile they found "interesting" as it tells me absolutely nothing about where they are coming from or what their potential attraction is.

If a person is truly interested in finding compatibility with another why would they completely ignore the written word of the one they are about to post a comment to?
I have come to a point that I can tell so much about those who contact me simply by their initial contact. I've placed markers within my profile that will reveal to me just how closely readers pay attention to what I have to say. Through trial & error I have been able to pretty much conclude what the true intent is of those who contact me after reading my profile. I also know that if people cannot follow through with simple requests asked in a polite manner then they most likely will never be capable following through with complex instructions.
As you're a Dominant, it would seem to me, that logic would dictate there are additional criteria you are looking for in a partner (such as a sub's ability to follow your directions) that go beyond what I would be looking for. I have observed the markers you speak of in numerous profiles of women who advertise here. But then, I'm not here to find just any Dominant, I seek one who is mutually compatible with me and always read their profiles, plus their journals as well. I have no desire to waste their time or mine. For some reason, I've met women on other sites (like Alt) who think my time is of no value or importance. 
Personally, I look for outside interests in a profile which I share in common with a woman that I can comment on or ask questions about which we share in common, to discover just how close our level of interest or experience, which I'd hope would help to strike up a conversation. This is the approach I'd personally prefer a woman use with me as well.
