I'll get a PM from someone saying they saw me on JC and when I ask for their profile name, they reply they're not a registered member. It becomes the 'what are you into?' game.

Another is, telling a person I like 'A,B,C' and they like 'D,E,F' (which I'm not into). I explain that to them, but they still want to chat.

yes the asl and what you into annoy me , but those that reply with 1 word replies , ie yup , oh and text speak

haha happens to me all the time..il post something on here ans someone will add saying they saw my post then ask what im into...

If anyone does the 'wot u into' with me, I usually reply "my right hand". Half of them don't even get it....

Agree with all of this. Does not just happen on Yahoo IM. ASL, please..............

I get this a lot. My profile is quite specific and gives enough detail, yet I'm still plagued with ASL, what's your cock like, who's your favourite celeb etc.

And I get a few add requests from people who never want to chat. I can deal with people not wanting to chat with me for a second time, but what's the point of not wanting to chat ever?

Glad 4 YH contacts. Add me. ASL? What into? Send pics.

OK...ok....

So those of you who are adept masters of Yahoo chat...instead of telling us what you don't like (I am used to that on Yahoo) tell us WHAT YOU DO THAT IS SO SUCCESSFUL, so the rest of us have a clue.

To be fair, I find the ASL to be dumb and also "what you into" to be a big pedestrian, but often I add people and then don't see them appear for weeks. So sometimes I forgot WHY I added them. We probably share a mutual kink, but that doesn't mean I know which one. I;m into many things, so I don't mind chatting a bit to find out what it was.

My biggest gripe is the people who want to chat, but barely talk. Or just send a couple of words.

I'm looking for meaningful, erotic chat that can go more than 2 minutes.

ASL doesn't bother me, and I ask that one too on different chat sites. I don't want to be talking to some underage kid, and conversely someone in their twenties might not want to be talking to a more "mature"...shall we say.... person

pmont is exactly right - I use "asl" to weed out underage and those even pretending to be underage. I want no part of that garbage!! Adults fucking only! LOL

If you are going to ask "ASL?" -- at least say your own ASL first.
By the way, age/sex/status is enough -- who cares what your (or my) location is?

I get AS to a point, but it's kind of stupid anyway as it is easy to say anything. L is completely dumb. If we chatted a lot and wanted to meet up, we'll share locations. It has no real point in the early goings of a convo.

Try chatting with someone for a bit before you ask any of these questions. Unless you're looking to actually meet up with someone tonight, there's no real information to be gained by ASL questions.

This! Or camming/phone. When I say I prefer to just chat/don't have a cam and the immediate response is "why not" or worse, tell me that I need to. Seriously? Don't tell me how to enjoy my own dick, man.

Greatly appreciate the honest cultural feedback! Refreshing to know there are other sensibilities out there!

OMG you all need to lighten up. I can chat with the best of them - a hot, descriptive rp, even, but I always start with asl and what youre into - what is the big fucking deal? I like legs and feet and nn teens and petite chicks fucking big dicks. If you like BBW interracial lez porn, well, great but we're not going to have a good chat experience. So let's get it out of the way early on whether we are compatible or not. Seriously.

Am I missing something?
