No doubt this was done before, but..
Do you read them?
Do they change your mind?
Do you prefer short or long?
Is it pics before text?
Does the "fill in later" make you scream.
Does the manifesto of 15 paragraphs make you keen? |

I read them, yes.
A profile can't change my mind because it either catches my eyes so I'm interested to find out more or it doesn't, meaning unless it's followed with a catchy message and/or pic, I don't want to find out more.
It's the profile as a whole that gives the vibe so both pics and text are of consideration.
Nothing makes me scream on Fab - it doesn't have that hold over me 
If the 15 paragraphs are well written, it'll give loads to start a conversation  |

Age first then pics. I scan the bio and it anything catches my eye I'll take it in with the bigger picture.
I wouldn't be able to tell you exactly what's written in the bio of anyone I'm having a conversation with but I always know what they look like. |

First thing I check it's if they meet smokers, if they do I proceed in looking further at the profile, if they say they aren't looking for single guys I move on, no point in wasting anyone's time.
Fill in later definitely something I run from. |

I love a blank profile that joined 2 hours ago and says hmu for fun, for 18-99 year olds 
Other than that, If I haven’t been grabbed by pics but the bio is something that screams of my kind of person (intelligent , sarcastic , and someone worth talking to) then it’s often been the right call previously to talk to that person.. |

I only read them if they fit certain criteria.
First thing I look at is age and then location.
If they don't fit I click out of the profile without looking further.
Pics are the last thing I'll look at in any profile and if they aren't consistent with what it says in the profile that's a no no too.
I have lots of paragraphs so can't really complain about long bios but there's a happy medium between can't be arsed and I'm up my own arse. |

Location catches my eye first, a meet is unlikely to happen if we’re opposite ends of the country but you never know. I met a lady from Newcastle UK while on hols in the Canaries so anything’s possible.
Bio then pics
Age is important as I prefer nearer to mine but will chat with anyone
“Fill in later” means I won’t be back to check later.

I put song lyrics on mine as I hadn’t planned on being active when I had set up the profile but turns out to be a great opener for people to message about and we can bond over the love of oasis. Although I’ve been asked many a time if I was a poet so not everyone gets it.
I’d read lads profile bio’s after they message me but the content wouldn’t really make any odds in whether I would meet them of not, I’d go off their messages and pictures. I don’t think I’ve ever taken note of someone’s age preferences or the list of what they are into to be honest. I’d read their verifications and look at the profiles of who they have met. If all their meets are with ladies who are slim and beautiful then I’d tell them I’m probably not for them as I’m a bit bigger. |

I read the bio and sometimes the tone of the wording can give me a slightly bad vibe about the profile
And if I’m engaged in messaging the profile then sometimes my suspicions can be confirmed

Some bios very well written,showing a great deal of someone's personality.....then they totally ruin it by posting the warning paragraph about Sydney University or ever the new one about GDPR regulations |

First thing I do is check preferences, if I don't match their criteria I leave the profile. No point in reading a bio or looking longingly at pictures of someone who won't want to meet me.
After that I read the bio, check pictures and any visible verifications. |

I almost always read the profile text and a funny witty description makes me want to message them, whereas something with a list of demands or with little effort makes me not want to message them.
It’s a fine balance and long text works for some but not others

I agree to that!
So many people use it though even though it’s rubbish.
Some people use it instead of a bio too  1 line bio 3 huge paragraphs of Sydney and other such rubbish 
A bio WITHOUT the disclaimer bit tend to catch my attention… of course it depends on what they write but I find bios hard to write so as long as people try… you can always find out more by chatting. |

Ours reads a bit like an FAQ page but it saves on misunderstandings about what we like and look for.
I do find one-liner bios a bit offputting as we like to get an idea of the people behind a profile using both pics and bio. Not a deal breaker though.
Definitely offputting when we receive a wink but the bio states that they are looking specifically for a woman or a couple with a bi-female. Mrs |

Well it would make sense to read the profiles otherwise how do you know if you are what they are looking for
For profiles that have variations of 'will fill later' or 'whatever age looking to meet men's etc I guess anything goes really like a blank canvas if your attempt doesn't work simply wash away and move on  |

There’s a fine balance between “I’ll read this” to ah for fuck sake it’s like a James Joyce novel ???? but yeah always good to read to see what they are into. Gamble with the ones who have nothing filled out |

Yes I read profiles,it's my go to before I even open a message from anyone on here is to look at their profile.Look at age etc first,then pics then read the profile. I like it to tell me something about the person,fill in later ones usually just get the message deleted. And ones with the disclaimers on them are usually a border line delete as well.Bo. |

Yes, I read them. I read from top to bottom, while I'm doing it I check the age range, are they looking for single guy's, then look at the pictures. I might fab a pic or 2. Hopefully they'll look at mine, if that's all that happens, it's fine with me. Long or short doesn't bother me, as mine is fairly long aswell.
I have the 18 to 99, as a way of keeping my options out, for now anyway's. I might change that in the future.
No pictures & fill in later on a profile that's joined for 6 months or more, is a red flag for me personally. If they're not long on Fab, it's understandable, I'm fine with that really.
