Doesn't matter whose profile you look at just about everyone seems to hate and detest winks. If they are so unpopular why bother having them on the site.
Do you know Steve, I've actually wondered that myself.
Seemed like a good idea at the time, I guess. It's a convenience tool.
To the recipient it also seems to mean 'I can't be bothered to think up something original and personalised for you but will you shag me anyway.'
Doesn't take much to figure out what the answer is likely to be.
The reason why they're there is probably because Admin haven't taken them off.

Perhaps to annoy people by making them look at their profile lol

I guess the people that like them are the people that send them confused :?
I like winks............. rolleyes
i think its better if people personalise their winks. the like ur profile why dont you have a look at mine is a bit lame. rolleyes
I've never had a problem with the little blighters. Then again I seldom receive any. Someone from the forum did wink me once and it lead to a regular correspondance. biggrin

I agree that personalised winks are better but we dont tend to answer any forms of winks or send them.
Then again we dont get much mail surprised

My thoughts exactly. I just delete them straight off. If someone can't be arsed to put some effort into a simple message it doesn't tell me they'll make any more effort in the bedroom
I never know what to do with winks I receive on this site or any other, like alot of people it lacks a little bit of imagination on the part of the sender, if they can't string a couple of sentences together as an introduction what are they going to be like when you meet them.
On here we have the automated response turned on, other sites we tend to ignore them as it clearly states not to send them, it kinda reminds me of the old playground thing "my friend likes your friend" kind of thing, where you don't want to make the 1st move for fear of rejection.
We tend to answer messages even if it is a no thank you...

If so, if you don't want winks just press the button. cool

For a "free" member who has joined the site but not yet paid the subscription they are the ONLY way of communicating with other individual site members apart from the ads. In that context, they do indicate that someone has looked at your profile and shown some interest. If you are interested in them I guess its down to you to reply with a message that persuades them to cough up at least the first month's subs so they can write a proper message.
Who have you winked today?? lol
I have just sent one, because I felt like it!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Yes its under settings...
Wink auto responders:
when someone sends you a wink the system will automatically send them a message back and the wink will not appear in your inbox, to activate just select a present message on the right.
In my opinion its freedom of choice on how I respond to a wink wink

So I'm clearly being a bit thick here but.........
if you can block winks why don't the people who don't like them do it? That way they don't get bothered by them and I mean this in the nicest possible way biggrin stop posting about how much they hate getting them. :D

I thought everybody had to put up an ad when they joined !!
I always assumed they were able to fill in their profiles as well ...

Yes and yes your right. What John is saying is after that process they have no other way of contacting other members - therefore use the wink system.

Exactly !!! So if it`s the only way they can make contact .....failing to fill in their profiles and then asking someone to come and look at it to see what they think is just plain stupid !!! :shock:
I don`t want to block all winks because the 1% that have actually made the effort would get blocked too .. rolleyes
So ...as I said earlier it`s not the winks that are the problem ....it`s the winkers that send them !
I agree confused :? :?
I think :giggle:

Unless they meant it to be referring to their photos rather than the bullshit everyone puts in the profile text?
