Nurse Bubble asked (Msg 2):
whats with the application form?
how about if you want to get to know someone, you talk with them?
Oh, it was just a joke. Of course I promote talking. I deleted the whole application now to avoid confusion, but I did preface the thing by writing:
From my profile, shortly before being deleted:
Oh, if you need help writing an email, you're welcome to (but by no means required to) copy, paste and fill out my Girlfriend Application below: -_^

Male seeking Female, right? Just needed to check....
I was entertained in the beginning. You lost me at the end. I thought the "application" idea was unique, but hey, I am new so what do I know. But being new and just having to fill out a gazillion similar questions to set up my profile, you lost me. Maybe the idea works in a paired down version of 10 questions max?
Also, maybe I got lost but I didn't get much on the woman you seek. Is it a Lucretia Borgia, Ann Boleyn, Princess Leia?
You are a unique one, you are. I hope not too unique....
Male seeking female, indeed. It says "I am seeking a: Woman" at the top, I think.
However, you make good observations, so like I said above, I deleted the whole application thing (which was just a joke, in any case) and added a section near the end for "Who I'm seeking". Here it is below, for your convenience:
Found in my just-updated profile:
Who I'm seeking:
I have only three strict requirements; "fundamentals", if you will. I'm looking for someone who is:
1.) Female
2.) Attractive
3.) Intelligent
And that's about it! I'm adaptable to virtually all types, and I don't discriminate in regard to race, age, or height/weight (within reason). Regarding the age thing, I do have a slight preference for "older". There's extra credit, though, if you're a nerd, if you're "artsy" and/or have a creative personality, or if you're one of those elusive "gamer girls". I know you're out there somewhere.
Oh, and you're an instant winner if you're either a.) a librarian or b.) a candidate for being the main villainess in a movie, such as if you have a Russian accent and carry a sword. (Reference to Dr. Malko in Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. I just recently watched this movie for the second time, so bear with me.)
Do you think this added section, and the deletion of the whole "application" thing, helps?
Also, in regard to the "You are a unique one, you are. I hope not too unique" comment..... yes, I am indeed a unique person. I thought I would accentuate it instead of disguise it, since it seems like a whole lot of the critiques say that people's profiles are too bland or otherwise indistinguishable.
Also, the "review guide" that's pinned at the top of this subforum says:
From that one profile editing guide:
On POF, you get the results that you deserve. Boring people make boring profiles and get boring results. Fun people make fun profiles and get fun results.
With my old profile, I got boring results (actually, that's an understatement. I got no results at all.) So, that's my rationale for this new one. Hopefully it's not too over-the-top, since this one is very "brutally honest" me.
