So how in the world do you get to know people on this forum? I post but damnit it's hard to keep up and talk with people.
 
sometimes pms help. A lot of people will talk to you in a pm more one on one than in a thread.

you may wanna change that av, sweets. ;) that way if it's women you're wishing to meet.. they'll know it's not a 'dude'. :D...
and I remember you. long time no see.
POST MORE ;)
 
I post, but I also read a lot. When someone catches my eye (usually when we've been posting to a lot of the same threads or have similar views) or I have a question, I'll send a friendly PM. Sometimes we talk periodically, others become friends. You have to be willing to put in the time and effort to get to know people though.

I've also met a ton of wonderful people through their initiation of a PM. I usually respond well to a comment or question about something I've posted or when someone's clear about why they want to talk to me (seen you around, we have similar interests, have a question, want to cyber, etc.). In other words, if I get the feeling a person is PMing every woman here for cyber or pics, or isn't really part of the posting community, I'll give a standard, cautious, and polite response.
 
Agreed on that one - posting is not enought. Reading and responding what ppls do, think and write + posting own opinions is the key activity, IMHO ;)

And if I see something interesting, I send a PM and ask and so on... :D Mostly I get good response and the infos I wand to know :D


SweetErika - I never asked anyone there about pics of herself, Im normal or not? :eek: :confused:

Depends on your definition of normal, I guess. Asking and not asking for pics are both common, but not asking will garner a more positive response from me and a lot of other women here.

I do this but sometimes there is just so many message on the forum here it's tough to keep up.

What are some of the threads that you keep up with?

I think it's more a matter of forums than specific threads. I usually subscribe to threads I respond to, so when a reply comes into my email, I'll scan it quickly to keep up and respond if I feel like it. If I'm busy, I'll leave it there as a reminder, and go back and read/reply when I have more time. But things generally don't move as quickly in HT and GLBT as they do in the PG and GB, so it's easier to keep up and get to new threads. :)
 
You'd do well to listen to Sweet Erika. She has all the wisdom and eloquence I do, but she's a lot nicer than me.

I also have to agree with whoever told you to change your AV. You gotta ask yourself, "Who is this avatar really attracting?" Mine attracts video game and fantasy nerds, which, in retrospect, was not what I was going for.

I PM'd you with a genuine interest in you, but you didn't really talk back with me :rolleyes:
 
So, I am to assume that it is not impolite to simply PM someone here, then. (versus chat where it is considered rude and improper).

Don't worry, I won't start flooding the world with PM's. ;)

funny if you want to get flooded with pm's then just join as a woman and talk about sexy things and i'm sure you'll get a TON of pm's :)

Well, if you see someone on here who catches your attentions why not just write them a private message and try to strike up a conversation that way. just a thought

I'm glad you like :) That makes me happy. If I ever get a cam what other things would you like to see?
I really don't have a preference when it comes to AVs...it's such a personal choice. But if you're going to stick with pics of you, go with something you especially like/feel proud of/are confident with. If that's your arm or tattoo or hand, face, eyes, or just a pic you particularly like, great. I might stay away from blatant genitalia shots and go for something a little more subtle or artistic, but that's just my opinion.

Well I'm an artist! I think I posted some of my paintings a long long time ago. I would never post a picture of my cock or anything. That to me just isn't very sexy and gives away all the mystery! I think I just don't really know what women find sexy b/c well I'm not one :) Since you are, what exactly do women find sexy?
