Help me out here what are BOTS? Please clarify. Search Google for "cyberlover." Seems somebody in Russia has developed a "social bot" that can carry on a complex, inane conversation with an inane person, as a setup for identity theft. Latest reports I've found are from December, saying this thing would hit the market in Fevruary. However, the URL "cyberlover.ru" was still blank when I looked last week. | |

Just e-mail.
I don't answer IMs, I think it's intrusive. | |

However for some reason at times it still shows me as available for IM and I do from time to time get angry email from users asking why i haven't responded to their chat requests. I always let them know that I do most of my accessing thru my phone and IM won't function there . Aside from that when I am accessing thru the PC is don't use this IM format because it is so cumbersome. | |

Posted: 6/21/2008 9:35:04 AM | | 'cause it really pisses me off when I'm trying to email or do something and all these IM pop-ups keep appearing and when I say no it just comes back on again!! If you wanna say hey then email first so we can look through ur profile first and see if we really wanna talk to you in the first place :p | |

Why should I chat to someone that has not even been bothered to mail me and try and get to know me first. It also bugs me when people ask for MSN asap. This site is free so what is the rush??? It just seems plane rude and makes me think men can't be bothered with having a little chit chat to see if you are both getting on. If you don't like messaging then maybe you should go on speeddating and get the chit chat done in 3 mins per person. End of the day the picture only tells you half a story and once you get on the date and you see beneath the beauty it could be wrotten.  | |
