| | Childish people on POFPage 1 of 1 | | I received a message from a lady today that said I should change my profile picture because I would never get a date with that pic unless it was some kind of joke. The pic is of me and John Dunsworth (aka Mr Lahey) making faces at the camera. I'm flipping the bird and he's pointing at the camera. I replied that I had received a lot of messages since I changed to that picture and it wasn't her business as I wasn't interested in her. A while later I received the good old message from Markus that my pic had been reported and removed. WTF? I don't want to ID the person but am wondering if others have had this happen? | |

Lots of stupid people on here, and as the saying goes can't fix stupid! :P The lady probably is just upset she doesn't get any messgaes and she is obivious not a fan of The Trailer Park Boys :( The show must offend her..... lol

| Childish people on POF Posted: 7/3/2012 2:49:49 PM | Unfortuneally there are way too many with 'old' pics on there profile. I had a pic but they removed it saying they could not see my face. I choose not to replace it with one of my private pics. I show those only when I am comfortable to do so. Should see the childish messeges I get!
Your pic is fine, and I guess we meet all kinds here. Simply ignore those who send 'hate messeges or report them.
I am at that point. Also those who have false profiles. | |

Well I'm off for awhile since I have better things to do. See ya and have a great summer:) | |

| Childish people on POF Posted: 8/13/2012 5:26:01 AM | | What do you do about the known serial daters? How do you protect the legitimate people wanting to meet others? | |

| Childish people on POF Posted: 8/13/2012 7:10:37 AM | In the aquarium (POF), as in life, it is left to each of us to sift the former from the latter.
It's not easy, because it's not even as simple as just separating the "legitimate" searchers from the serial daters, because some of the serial daters believe they ARE the legitimate searchers. Not everyone has the same definitions, needs, sensibilities.
Trying to 'click' with someone you could actually have a relationship with--here or out in the 'real' world--is not for the faint of heart. | |

| Childish people on POF Posted: 8/13/2012 9:55:18 AM | | Well said, Zaftiggg... it takes a strong set of kahunas to take that next step into the "real world." The odds of the "connection" happening the first (or fifth!) time out are slim, but worth the effort... or at least that's what we tell ourselves? | |

| Childish people on POF Posted: 8/13/2012 10:10:18 AM | | i've had people tell me to put new pics on, that they thought i should have more pictures on i do not even want to meet some of these people- so it doesn't really matter! | |

| Childish people on POF Posted: 8/14/2012 5:44:12 AM | I probably should have explained more. It doesn't matter. Not scared of an adventure, just hate how people believe having a monitor and keyboard between them and the person they are talking to is some kind of emotional armor.
Good luck to all, | |

For sure that callous streak is a downside to this form of communication. Probably fed, in part, by the very human tendency to take someone else's words the wrong way sometimes. Especially when you can't hear tone/see facial expression... | |

| Childish people on POF Posted: 8/23/2012 4:53:28 PM | My profile name seems to hit a chord with a few ladies....they think I'm a legend in my own mind, I'm not a legend I'm just extraodinary ,I'm here to date ,not squabble over profile names....do I care what they think......nope
I had all sorts of pics removed, I just kept reloading them....they gave up after a while....I had one pic of my guitar....it was reported so I put a little thumbnail pic of me onto the guitar you could barely see me,,,but they couldn't remove it anymore because there was a pic of my face within that picture.....so the joke was on them......there are some very vendictive idiots on here.... | |
