One reason would be that for some users, who prefer to go down the social route to meet people in the flesh first, and get a feel for them as people before they even begin to think about arranging a meet, filling in a profile that encourages random contact would possibly be a waste of their time and energy, and a waste of the time and energy of those users who might choose to initiate contact based solely on the content of a profile.
Other users have privacy considerations, and would be very wary indeed of giving too much information away on a profile that might in some way make them more readily identifiable by their employers, for example.

Hello Twobicurious40s!
:welcome: to the forums.
I tend to think of profile text in the same was as telly adverts or estate agent's flyers..... pretty much designed to lure you in rather than tell you anything resembling the truth.
I'm of the firm opinion that it takes some time to get to know someone well enough to want to shag them, although there are a few people who'd jump right to the top of the list just because of their profile pictures! :twisted:
I know and fully understand the need for discretion and am definitely not advocating compulsory pictures or a full I'm saying is that there is nothing to distinguish these no doubt genuine folks from the drunk guy who logs on as a bi-fem couple on a Friday I'm just idle and it's time to go clubbing again.
It is true and I agree with what Cubes has said that the profile and ad is a hook and lure but there are some that do exactly the opposite. I urge you to check out "xxxxxxxx" profile. I am not into the business of bad mouthing anyone but I for one found it quite funny and slightly offensive. Clearly someone is finding it hard to work this site?
Mods Edit - user name removed from the post as we dont allow any kind of naming and shaming on this site.

From our point of view, I would say that our profile gets changed at various times over the months.
Sometimes we are actively seeking something and so we advertise for that thing and sometimes we do not advertise at all.
We tend not to have a permanent ad on here simply because we are not always looking for that thing.
As for the profile details? Well if someone wants to know more about us then they get in touch. I always prefer to chat to someone on the phone or by cam or preferably in the flesh to establish if we have a rapport. If others dont wish to do that then that is their choice.
I feel that sometimes a full profile with a thorough and detailed explanation of what someone is looking for is a little 'cold'. Once we are clear on the basics of what we are each looking for, I prefer there to be a little mystery in finding out what makes people tick.
Edited for typo!
Our profile gets changed according to what our wishes are at any particular time and what we are seeking. We also update pics so that unlike some which I suspect are about 50 years out of date....ok slight poetic license there...lol. but you get the gist. At the moment no pics as we are not looking, but happy to chat.
The site is more of the 'Close Encounters' of the first or second type.
... because I'm worth it.
