Why Bother Hetero females?

[Zuzannah]

  I don't agree with the add more info and reduce avatar space.  No,  The lobby as it is called, shows me, if people are interested, then they say Hi no matter what is on my profile.  Making it bigger, No. Definitely, NO.  Because, it's not read by anyone anyway.  Maybe another button somewhere on screen for a bigger profile, but make it small because no one would use it anyway.

  Loads of “straight” guys message me, and most think it's ok when I tell them that I'm not a Gurl in real.  Some take exception and never heard again.

  Introducing people to the forum is hard.  BUT have you noticed that the viewing stats go up, sometimes quite a lot in a few days.  People come here but never join in.  Getting people here is hard getting them to actually say something, now that's almost impossible.

  On point 3. Yeah maybe, but it won't stop the cold callers.  Nothing will stop the cold callers, lol.

Hi Zuzannah…thanks for your views

I think we're going to have to agree to disagree on the first point.  Yes, it's good to see a visual representation of the character people create, but for my own personal preference I'd like to have a little more info available to me at a glance without having to (sometimes) drag it out of people. Maybe it's because I prefer to chat…I go on, and on, and…well, you know.    Not really a button clicker, visuals aren't as important to me as the persona behind it.  Also, I know more than a few people who would like to be able to have more space to create a profile description. It is, after all, a profile not a dress up page. 
I agree with the button, as I said originally, and think a lot of people would use it before approaching someone if it were an option.

I'm always upfront with guys that message, at least the ones I manage to respond to, telling them I think I should save them wasting their time as I'm not into men. Most are fine and say Bye and move on. Some don't reply. Others are happy just to chat, that's how I've ended up with the men in my Friend list.

As to getting people in here, I know it's bloody difficult, and as you said, getting them to post even harder. Gotta just keep plugging away at people.

Finally, point 3…maybe a check box option to not accept invitations from people not in your list?  It would maybe encourage them to message if they're interested.  I'd like something like that, amongst other things. But not being well-versed in techie stuff I don't know what's possible and what isn't.

View from a straight female.  I make it quite clear I am straight.  When I get colded by anyone, male or female they get ignored.
