I for one love reading my messages but then again I'm not inundated with them. I've sent a few first time messages to a few different women, and it's been a few days and the message is still unread and they're active on the site? To the women of Fab, are you not bothered by new messages, or do you just have so many that you slowly work through them? |

I tend to look at the start of the message and the person's profile before deciding if it's enticing enough to open right away.
I also go through phases where I don't even look at my inbox, I just log on to browse the forums.
I'm not inundated because I use filters but I'm also in no rush to read messages straight away. |

I don't think it's just me....I'm sure other females get bombarded the same....It's hard as I like to speak to friends on here and chat in the forums....Then you get abusive messages if you don't reply....If I replied to all it would spoil my fun in here chatting to friends and stuff so it can get overwhelming  |

I can only imagine cause every time a new woman joins fabs it must be like bees to honey. I'm always polite and welcome them aboard but they never get read because too many idiots go straight for the jagular so to speak. |

It's not just fab where ladies get lots of messages. From what I've heard it's the same with all apps.
Awhile ago I downloaded a new app and I sent lots of messages but I didn't get any replies, none of them even got seen.
This went on for a week then I decided to do an experiment and I signed in with female gender and no pics or profile text.
Then almost immediately I started getting bombed with messages. What a difference! |

I know I sound like a broken record....however, if you get so many messages and the only way to deal with them is bulk delete, then what’s the point? Why not just put the filters fully up? |

I’ve over 1500 unopened at the min. There’s no way I can go through them.
I look at the headings especially when playing forum games.
But for me to open a random I need to see a face or at least one attaches and the first line interests me..... |

Yeah me too .. my filters are good for who I want to meet but no one reads the profile
I bulk deleted last week and back up to 1130 in less than 6 days
I don’t like bulk frosting because I could be kidding some real gems but how can we possibly go through them all |

Save them when you've read them then delete the rest...
I usually find if someone wants to keep in touch they always messages again anyway... its far easier for a man to keep track of his messages lol |

"If you get too many messages Why not block all messages and just wink at people you want too speak to that way if they want to message you they can ?"
Don't even go there,
Some girls do, some girls don't,some girls need a lot of messages & some girls don't.
Own up,who sang it out instead of reading it?

When I’m looking to meet I get about 5 a day (excluding fab friends).
My filters do all the work for me. I couldn’t come with the volume I got when I first joined.
This means I can answer all my messages and have time to chat with people and read the forums. |

I would love to get the right kind of messages from the right kind of profile. I get endless messages from profiles without pictures or just a row of cock, and I just can't be bothered to 'enquire' anymore. |

"I get too many messages, because even one message from a man who does not read profiles, thus disrespecting women's choices and preferences, is one too many. "
This too. Oh, it's just a message, what's the harm?
It's a continual drip drip drip of "I don't think you deserve the basic respect of being listened to in terms of what I want. Give me what I want and now. Baby."
No. |

Same as when we joined, quite clear in profile "No single men" 9-10 messages were
"I know you say no single men, but......."
Single guys blocked within two weeks.

"your profile is too long, I didn't read it, but I need a shag"
"I know you say you don't meet immediately, but..."
My profile is a guide to getting into my knickers. If you don't use it, you won't. |

Without filters it can be ridiculous!
With filters on and my profile aimed completely towards women is not so bad...
Tbh, I mostly meet at clubs so other than forumites, I tend to ignore most messages  |

Yeah we get too many. I even have a lot of filters on. What would be useful is two categories of messages. Those from people you’ve messaged before and those who are totally new. |

"I have a question. When you send a message to someone, how do you know that they’ve deleted it without reading it? "
Go to your sent items. It will have a strike over the mail to say it's deleted.
Not sure you can tell it's been deleted without being read. Unread are yellow but never tested the theory of unread messages bring deleted |

I did not say there was any harm. There are generally in the region of 10+ a day. Mostly from those people, occasionally from those who have read the first five lines, very occasionally from those with good reading comprehension. |

Isn’t the definition of madness doing the same thing time after time and expecting a different result?
Yet we have the same people on here moaning over and over about the amount or type of messages they receive yet do nothing about changing their approach.
I’m going to go and bash my head against a wall and see if it hurts the same as last time.  |

So it seems its really just potluck and timing. Depends on whether the person you're messaging has only received a few messages on that particular day you might have a chance of being seen. |

How long are your first messages usually?
Often when men complain that a message hasn't been read, they are incorrect. If a message is less than 12 words maximum, you can read it without opening it. The entire message is visible in your inbox. You can even click on the sender's profile and have a look at that from your inbox without opening the message.
So instead of wrongly complaining that messages most go unread, perhaps more men should be thinking about why their message wasn't long enough or interesting enough to entice someone to open it |

My tuppence worth on messaging a lady is ( not that it's a fool proof way of getting a reply ) is to ask them a question totally away from the sexual area of here ...we all know the lady is here for sex...we all know she has her filters set for her specific reasons...we all know she's not gonna let everyone that Messages her on her ..but at the end of the day she is here and the one thing she deserves is complete 100% respect...yes she may love to fuck 40 ways from Sunday and totally adores getting cock but respect is something that should be given so it's my opinion that a ladies profile should always be read and just see if there's a little question you could ask her that she has brushed by on her profile,other than the Sexual scenario...IE..if she says a guy has to make her laugh..ask if she has seen such a comedy..if she's wearing a rock band t shirt in a photo..ask her what's her fav track from the band ...l'm only giving my tuppence worth on this cause l do believe that there are only so many sexual Messages a lady can tolerate in any given day .week ..or month ..before it just gets totally boring or monotonous for them... |

I reply to all first messages. My profile puts many off. A ridiculous amount of men think it's real.
And some gems understand it.
It's easy to stop mail.
