We put a lot of effort into creating an interesting page and we welcome the messages that show you are paying attention. Rude and insulting messages are not necessary when being declined for a conversation. Some people may only be on the site for browsing and may not want to be approached for a hook up. Test the waters. Be sweet and clever. Make us laugh and want more.
