OP: I gave a toaster out to #500 on my list. She wasn't impressed, but I thought it was a nice thing to do.
Wonder what bullielover gives out at 1,000? I'm holding out for a new microwave.   | |

Posted: 5/30/2008 4:40:58 AM | It's the ones that put you on their favorite lists and will not respond even if you write them that really puzzles me.
Let's see, I am your favorite and you will not even communicate with me by email.
I always wonder if they will talk to anyone if they won't talk to their favorites. | |

Posted: 5/30/2008 5:24:54 AM | Lately, I have been removing the members who put me in their favorites list because like what the OP and everyone had mentioned here, they never message you just to even say hi.
Though there is still one that appears on my profile but the bugger has hidden his profile so I am unable to remove him as well.
I wonder when his profile is showing up again? Hmmm.... | |

Posted: 5/30/2008 12:50:27 PM | Gotta Love the Favorites list! Its a great way to find out IF a lady is interested in starting a friendship that may lead to a LTR or Not! Also its a great way to know which ladies you can delete IF they dont respond to a friendly e-mail! Especially the ones who say in their profiles that they answer all e-mails!!  | |

Posted: 5/30/2008 1:46:32 PM | | I make sure I remove these people who add me. I don't want to be on anyone's 'list' | |

Posted: 5/30/2008 2:32:56 PM | | I'm on 260 favorite lists, yet none of them want to date. Is this a dating site or a popularity contest??? | |

Posted: 6/19/2008 7:44:06 PM | I just Deleted a Dozen from my list...
Since I wasn't Able to contact them...due to some trivial *Filter*...I at Least let them know that I was interested..!!
If they can't take a *HINT*.... ....it's _Their_ Loss...!! | |

Posted: 6/19/2008 8:27:58 PM | | I usually put guys on my favorites list for one of a couple of reasons.... 1. they're attractive and I want to read their full profile when I have time, 2. I like what they have to say and want to message them but don't have time to, 3. they've added me and I want to check out their profiles at my leisure. or 4. I can't decide whether or not I want to contact them, so I save em and go back and look at them later. | |

Posted: 6/19/2008 9:45:54 PM | | I've added one or two just because I thought they had really cool profiles but because of distance, relationship goals, whatever, we weren't right for each other but I still found them interesting. | |

Posted: 6/20/2008 1:07:22 AM | I left this thread about a couple of weeks ago. I thought i would come back over here to see what was going on only to find out that it is still just as lame as it was when i left.
I don't care what any body says, This site needs a favorites list like a hog needs a side saddle. The favorites list is of as about as much use as tits on a boar hog. The way i see it if i have the few seconds it takes to put a total stranger on my favorites list then i have the few seconds it takes to go ahead a write the person. No going back and looking at them later, Which is kinda creepy, And 100 other excuses that people come up with. Good lord! P.i.s.s or get off the pot! Your either interested or your not! How many seconds does it take to read someones profile? Not many. How long does it take to look at a picture and read a profile that doesn't even scratch the surface of who the man/woman is and decide to write that person? I can read a profile and look at a picture and decide whether to write that person or not and if i decide to write do it all in about 10 min or less. And, If for some reason i don't have time to write that person right then i don't have to put them in my favorites to remember them or to find them. Every woman that i click there picture one time will always be on the page when i sign back in again. There either on my Matches page or my Viewed me page. In other words, If that person made a good enough impression on me i will not forget there face or there screen name. It ain't rocket science. Favorites list is just a way for some people to leave other people hanging. Just enough to make the person think that someone is interested until that person decides not to message that one they put on there favorite list 3 months ago. Favorites list is just another way to play with some peoples emotions. Favorites list should be done away with. You are either interested or your not. | |

Posted: 6/20/2008 1:30:22 AM | | Ah......the infamous "Favorites List". I havent yet figured out why people add you to it and yet dont bother with an email. When I'm added to someone's favorites list, if I havent heard from them within the first couple of weeks, I remove myself from their list. If they're not interested in you as a person enough to at least say hello, you're not much of a "favorite" are you? | |

Posted: 6/20/2008 5:57:45 AM | I read just a few of the messages (the thread is currently at 24 PAGES!)
I too never understood the point of this "feature". But I saw that at least one woman was using it as a kind of bookmark. Funny!
I think it would be more useful to be able to block people that keep popping up in a search but for various reasons would never work out.
Anyway, now that I'm off the dating part of the site, I figured out one reason to use the favourites. If you like someone but she has a filter in place, such as distance or age or smoking or whatever, so you can't email her, you could put her in your favourites and hope that she will contact you... yea sure she will! | |

Posted: 6/20/2008 7:42:23 AM | I think the Favorite List is a good feature on this site.
- TO me, being on someone's favorite list is a huge complement. However, I probably live a good 70-100 miles from some of them. | |

Posted: 6/20/2008 8:12:44 AM | | the favorites list doesn't bother me as much as the testimaonials, they are a huge turnoff. | |

Posted: 6/20/2008 8:58:14 AM | Testimonials - cheesy, tacky, dumb!.
It's usually someone's friends confirming that he or she is a great person. Of course everyone's friends think they are wonderful. Testimonials usually have no bearing on a person's dating potential or anything for that matter. | |

Posted: 6/20/2008 10:07:42 AM | | I've noticed a lot of women use them to mark there territory...they want the guy so they more less tell you stay away. and then they talk about how wonderful the guy is, then why don't they have him? well unless of course he doesn't want them...a lot of women use them to beg the guy in around about way to date them at the same time its doing a duel purpose letting other gals know to back off...so I rarely see a testimonial that does the guy any good...they turn me off, I'm no longer interested... | |

Posted: 6/20/2008 10:46:01 AM | | Then there is the one where you are placed on someone's "fave list", you email them and they won't write back,,,delete, delete, delete | |

Posted: 6/20/2008 11:07:01 AM | | Some people use the favorites list like it's there own little black book. If a person has a few favorites that they talk to even if there to far away to date that's OK, Nothing wrong with it. I have a few in my favorites but i talk to them. These with 100, 200, 300, on up is just plain ridiculous and a huge turn off. When i see one with over 15 or 20 favorites i just keep going. The first thing i think is they are collecting trophy's. | |

Posted: 6/20/2008 12:00:41 PM | ~OT~ I don't believe it means jack. I spent 5 hours deleting favs about 6 months ago ~ from 450+++ to about 50. I hid my profile for 5 months and it's climbing again. I don't get much new mail, but that silly list creeps up and up. My list (that I generate) has 43 people on it. 6 men, the rest women. That's the ONLY list I care about. JMO  | |

Posted: 6/20/2008 12:31:20 PM | | the favs list is kind of like the who viewed me list, they look over and over never email or anything I don't understand it. its more like whose stalking me, I emailed a guy once he never responded. then one guy i told him to stop looking week after week if he isn't going to email or chat with me. | |

Posted: 6/20/2008 2:12:11 PM | Hard to believe this thread has gone on for nearly 3 years and 24 pages!! Geez!! LOL
I, too, have had men add me to their faves list without contacting me or responding to my attempts at contact. I find it peculiar, but I'm not losing sleep over it. I think it's flattering to be added for the most part. I normally send an email to the guy once he's added me to just to let him know I noticed. I use the note section to jot some reminders to myself about the guy (i.e. name, specific things he shared about himself, things we have in common, etc.).
