| MootBubbles review Posted: 5/16/2005 5:37:18 PM | MootBubbles
Your headline, "Gentle soul seeks kindred spirit" seems a bit "out there" but hey, if thats you and what you think will catch peoples attention to read further into your profile, then more power to ya. Personally I dont think it has quite that pep.
Your picture. Nice. But a little cut off, got any others to add by chance?
About your "Dating Interests" This, I think, is the one biggest boo boo most people make. This is where you could really show your stuff or just crash and burn! What are you interested in? Its that simple really. Perhaps you like reading, as you indicated. DONT PUT READING! Be more specific as "reading" is too friggin general. Anything general is open to interpretation and more than likely backfires on ya. For example, let's say you actually put in there, "Movies", which you did too. Another general and very broad interest. Think a moment, will ya? How many movies do you suppose has been made since turn of the century? Now of all those movies, how many different variations and genre do you think there are? If you think about it, the different varieties are staggeringly high. Do you really like all of those differences and varieties? I am gonna bet "no". So be specific. You like horror over comedy? Maybe chick flicks versus guy movies of shoot-em-up bang bang movies. Whatever the case, be specific. This is a very important key that may unlock your future happiness should you meet someone!
Generally, there are a few "industry standards" to avoid. Well, maybe not avoid, just be more specific. TV/Movies Dinner/cooking Camping Music Reading/books Computers
Always ask yourself, "what about 'em". Then fill it in some as to what you like about them, or what variety or what have you.
And my other tip is, be sure to have lots of things listed. 8 or 10 is what I would go with. Why? Its the shotgun theory, for those who hunt. You see, a shotgun shell has many tiny little pellets generally called "buckshot". When the gun is fired, these buckshot spread out as they fly through the air towards the target, ensuring larger coverage and thus, better chance at hitting something.
You are the gun. Your interests are the buckshot. And the more you list (and specify) of interests, the better chance you have of having something in common with someone else that will, thusly, create a hit! Then an e-mail is sent and before long, you are at the beginning of a nice relationship.
"About me" section is a little sparse. Share more about yourself and your general attitude. What are you about?
Good to expand a little more on your interests too. You started to do that, good job.
"First Date" Keep it simple for us guys. "Drinks on a patio, chatting over coffee, anywhere we could sit and get to know each other"
Thats good enough there. So revamp and tweak where suggested and go from there. | |

Buddy, dude. "just looking for a friend" Aww well now, ain't that nice?! It will also blend in to all the other profiles that say the same exact thing. Your headline is designed to catch peoples attention. To grab them by the scruff of the neck, to capture both their curiosity and imagination. What is it that catches your of others profiles? Thats a good place to start.
About your pictures. I like your primary one, lose the second one. Looks odd (the lightning and or camera angle). Do you have any others you may want to add? Wouldn't hurt.
Your "Dating Interests"...
Sorry guy, they suck. Perhaps simply you misunderstood the easily misunderstood with this section. All that is needed here is what you are interested in. Hobbies and such, ya know? Like I dunnmo, hang gliding, volcanoe exploring and perhaps bird watching nekkid. ha ha, whatever. Just be specific and list between 8 & 10 things.
Why? Its the shotgun theory, for those who hunt. You see, a shotgun shell has many tiny little pellets generally called "buckshot". When the gun is fired, these buckshot spread out as they fly through the air towards the target, ensuring larger coverage and thus, better chance at hitting something.

"About me" This section is where you can tie in all in. This is THE place you want to express yourself as to who you are. What your attitude on life is like. Maybe expand some more on your interests too.
Tell about yourself, stay positive. Remain focused on yourself and what you want. End this section with who you seek. What kind of person. Stay away from the negatives of who you do NOT want and so forth. Stay positive! You definitely need to add more.
"First Date" Lost (specifics) as to what you want to do on a first date. Is it really a weekend in Paris? Seriously now. Or maybe coffee and a danish or something. Whatever, just be truthful. | |

Interesting Sn. I like it!
Your headline, "WANTED:Sanity (I killed a FISH!)" I dont get it. I like either the first part (wanted: sanity) or the last part. But both together doesn't make a lot of sense.
About your pictures, I like the first (primary) and third. Lose the second. Too distant, no one can make ya out well.
"Dating Interests" Good variety! I'd be a little more specific with "Dancing, music, food, books and films". And you really wanna put under interests "arguments"???
In your "about me" section, well..... yuck, its a stinkaroo! "About me" This section is where you can tie in all in. This is THE place you want to express yourself as to who you are. What your attitude on life is like. Maybe expand some more on your interests too.
Tell about yourself, stay positive. Remain focused on yourself and what you want. End this section with who you seek. What kind of person. Stay away from the negatives of who you do NOT want and so forth. Stay positive!
"First date" yeah sure, keep it. Its original enough! lol | |

Ok, about your profile. Your headline first. "Hi There" Please consider this: Your headline is designed to catch peoples attention.
To grab them by the scruff of the neck, to capture both their curiosity and
imagination. What is it that catches your of others profiles? Thats a good place to start.
None of this "Hi There" stuff. Boring!! Get creative, get crazy! Have fun
with it. And remember, Try to think of what would catch YOUR eye, to
hold your attention enough for you to go reading further of someones
profile.
Your pictures: The first (primary one) is not the best plus you have someones arm on ya.
I DEFINITELY would suggest the seconf one however. Wholeheartedly!
Great smile!!!
On to the "Dating Interests" This, I think, is the one biggest boo boo most people make. This is where
you could really show your stuff or just crash and burn! What are you
interested in? Its that simple really.
Example: Perhaps you like reading. DONT PUT READING! Be more specific as
"reading" is too friggin general. Anything general is open to interpretation
and more than likely backfires on ya.
For example, well, you actually put in there, "Watching Movies". Another general and very broad interest. Think a moment, will ya? How many movies do you suppose has been
made since turn of the century? Now of all those movies, how many
different variations and genre do you think there are? If you think about it, the different varieties are staggeringly high. Do you
really like all of those differences and varieties? I am gonna bet "no". So be
specific. You like horror over comedy? Maybe chick flicks versus guy
movies of shoot-em-up bang bang movies. Whatever the case, be specific.
This is a very important key that may unlock your future happiness should
you meet someone!

avoid, just be more specific. TV/Movies Dinner/cooking Camping Music Reading/books Computers

"First Date" Eh, it's kinda the standard line most give. Is that what you'd
rrreeeaaallllyyyy like to do on a first date? If so, great. Keep it. But if
not.... go ahead and write it. Give us guys a clue. | |

| Basset Hound review Posted: 5/17/2005 8:03:30 AM | night501
Ok, let's see what your profile holds. Your headline, "a knight in shining armor" Its soveryclose to being original. May I suggest something? How 'bout "KISA me" ha ha, (Knight In Shining Armor) me, get it?
Please consider this: Your headline is designed to catch peoples attention. Get more creative, get crazy! Have fun with it. Try to think of what would catch YOUR eye, to hold your attention enough for you to get to reading further of someones profile.
Your pictures I like the third one just a little better than your primary pic, only 'cuz you got a smile thingy going. I'd definitely suggest you use it as your primary.
"Dating Interests" Well, you have a 50/50 shot here me thinks. My advice is some tweaking is needed, especially for "Hiking fishing camping" (Aren't they all one and the same?) & Movies and concerts. Need more specifics here. The rest are ok.
"About me" section, watch out for them spelling errors. Relax though, dont stress and beat yourself up. We all have the same prob. "im" should be "I'm" "Iv" shouold be "I've" "i" should be.... well you get the idea. This one is kinda embarassing, "Pennsulvania"?? That anywhere near Pennsylvania? lol
Needs more about you This section is where you can tie in all in. This is THE place you want to express yourself as to who you are. What your attitude on life is like. Maybe expand some more on your interests too. The first sentence is the most important. Start it negative in any way, and it's a turn off for those you seek.
Tell about yourself, stay positive. The Don'ts: 1) Don't go referring to the exes or what they were like or how they treated ya. 2) Don't be tentative. "I think", "Maybe", "Should". 3) Be assertive. "My friends tell me that I am funny." No no, Take control of it. Make it your own. Either believe it and write "I am funny" or leave it out entirely. 4) Avoid listing who you DONT want. "I don't want liars, or those who play games." Do you rreeaaallllyyy believe those people will not respond to you just because you said so? 5) Dont be negative. "I hate how my hair looks", or "I may not be all that but....." Always always always makes you look worse.
Remain focused on yourself and what you want. End this section with who you seek. What kind of person. Again, stay away from the negatives of who you do NOT want and so forth. Stay positive! You have a great base to start with in what you wrote already!
"First Date" Keep it simple. Coffee then maybe a pub and pool. And again please watch the spelling!
Ok, thats it. That'll be $995! lol | |

| burnedman90, review Posted: 5/19/2005 12:20:19 PM | Yo burnedman90,
So ya want a review eh? Well, here goes....
Your headline, "Looking for friends".... boring. Do you realize how many other people have the same exact headline as you? And as a result, how much it blends in with the rest? Come on guy, get original. Please consider this: Your headline is designed to catch peoples attention. None of this boring stuff either. Its a snoozer!! Get creative, get crazy! Have fun with it. Try to think of what would catch YOUR eye, to hold your attention enough for you to get to reading further of someones profile.
Your pictures: Eh, the second one that actually shows you, is the best. The rest I just don't get. Why show your tatt and your dog? You trying to find a friend for your dog or for you??
"Interests" You wrote "movies walks trying new things " Thats it? Just three things? And all generalizations too. Why? You afraid to really reveal what you like to do? Whats the dealio? This is where you really show your stuff or really fumble and make the person lose interest.! What are you interested in? It's that simple really. And be specific. Example, ok, you like "Movies". A general and very broad interest. Think a moment, will ya? How many movies do you suppose has been made since turn of the century? Now of all those movies, how many different variations and genre do you think there are? If you think about it, the different varieties are staggeringly high. Do you really like all of those differences and varieties? I am gonna bet "no". So be specific. You like horror over comedy? Maybe chick flicks versus guy movies of shoot-emn-up bang bang movies. Whatever the case, be specific. This is a very important key that may unlock your future happiness should you meet someone!
Another idea is to be sure to have lots of things listed. 8 or 10 is what I would go with. Why? Its the shotgun theory. You see, a shotgun shell has many tiny little pellets generally called "buckshot". When the gun is fired, these buckshot spread out as they fly through the air towards the target, ensuring larger coverage and thus, better chance at hitting something.
You are the gun. Your interests are the buckshot. And the more you list (and specify) of interests, the better chance you have of having something in common with someone else that will, thusly, create a hit! Then an e-mail is sent and before long, you are at the beginning of a nice relationship.
"About me" This section is where you can tie in all in. This is THE place you want to express yourself as to who you are. What your attitude on life is like. Maybe expand some more on your interests too. The first sentence is the most important. Start it negative in any way, and it's a turn off for those you seek.
Tell more about yourself, and you do a fine job at remaining positive. The Dont's: 1) Don't go referring to the exes or what they were like or how they treated ya. 2) Don't be tentative. "I think", "Maybe", "Should". 3) Be assertive. "My friends tell me that I am funny." No no, Take control of it. Make it your own.

Always always always makes you look worse.
Remain focused on yourself and what you want. End this section with who you seek. What kind of person. Again, stay away from the negatives of who you do NOT want and so forth. Stay positive!
Thats about it. Your profile is ok, but it needs some tweaking. Maybe renovations is a better description. ha ha. But you are on the right track atleast! Give a looksie at some other folks profiles and maybe that'll give you a few ideas too. | |

| Javacup review Posted: 5/19/2005 12:28:50 PM | Javacup
What up dude?
Ok, so your headline, "Looking over the city's shoulder", ummm, I don't get it. Care to 'splain yourself? lol Seriously though, if it is your attempt ay being funny or creative, well if ya have to explain it, your attempt is lost. Try again. Remember Your headline is designed to catch peoples attention. You have to get more creative, get crazy! Have fun with it. Try to think of what would catch YOUR eye, to hold your attention enough for you to get to reading further of someones profile.
About your pictures. I gotta be honest. You got a Ted Bundy thang going there. Do you know who he was? lol Seriously though, most of the pics are either poorly lit, or blurry. Get better pictures.
"Dating Interests" You have "Writing Exercise Learning Great conversations" Really now, can this be anymore boring, bland and general. What about writing exactly? What exercise? Learning what? Conversing about...???? Specifics dude, this will serve you well here!
"About Me" Your first sentence.... makes no sense. Did you leave something off? Or was this another attempt at humor that is now screaming for an explanation. And when you have to explain your joke, it ain't a joke. 'Least here in the states anyway.
About this, "Listen - the things I've seen in the hospital - be d*mn glad you're healthy and have all your limbs and cognitive abilities intact. Can really open your eyes." Well you are just a bundle of fresh air, a bright ray of sunshine ain't ya? Sheesh, lose that tripe! Best saved for a later e-mail. MUCH later!
The "About me" section is where you can tie in all in. This is THE place you want to express yourself as to who you are and really show some humor. To show What your attitude on life is like. Maybe expand some more on your interests too. The first sentence is the most important. Start it negative in any way, and it's a turn off for those you seek.
Tell about yourself, stay positive. The Don'ts: 1) Don't go referring to the exes or what they were like or how they treated ya. 2) Don't be tentative. "I think", "Maybe", "Should". 3) Be assertive. "My friends tell me that I am funny." No no, Take control of it. Make it your own. Either believe it and write "I am funny" or leave it out entirely. 4) Avoid listing who you DONT want. "I don't want liars, or those who play games." Do you rreeaaallllyyy believe those people will not respond to you just because you said so? 5) Dont be negative. "I hate how my hair looks", or "I may not be all that but....." Always always always makes you look worse.
Remain focused on yourself and what you want. End this section with who you seek. What kind of person. Again, stay away from the negatives of who you do NOT want and so forth. Stay positive!
"First Date", I like what you put. Keep it just as it is. Good job there! Now tweak the rest of the profile! Thats the first step. | |
