Any hints for Scruff?

[Doe Be Doe]

I've been on Scruff for one week. It's fun but frustrating when you get no reply.

 

I am bluntly honest and use real photos. I don't think I'm ugly but who knows?

 

Any hints or tips on best practices for scruff?

I copied the below from this thread on online hookups:

My tips:

1. Keep expectations very very low

2. NEVER. EVER get into a fight with someone about anything, not worth it!

3. Always politely decline or respond people you are not interested in, even if someone gets upset by the rejection, it's the nice thing to do.

4. Make a set of rules for yourself (time limits for use, what type of responses you will not tolerate, what photos you will and will not send) then stick to them.

5. If it looks too perfect and the conversation makes no sense it's a bot.

6. Go for the personality and not the looks, the sex is always better that way.

7. Take your best offers on a first come first serve basis and let the other people know where they are in line. (It seems rude and deli like, but people seem to like at least knowing why you are not inviting them over even though you had a good connection. And even if it's not FCFS and based on who is hottest, no one will know that but you)

8. Avoid these words and phrases (into?, looking?, hung? sup, hru, wyd, AND THE BIGGEST OFFENDERS, responding to things with "COOL", "NICE", OR "LOL" it will kill a conversation so fast! haha

9. Don't listen to what anyone else tells you you need to be doing

I was a subscriber for about 5 days and cancelled because I could tell it was going to become a huge time sponge. Some really studly men on there. One guy wrote in his profile that he noticed his response rate went way down when he changed his profile pic to one with his shirt on. So take heed. Maybe a shirtless pic would help.

Thanks. I've been following those rules, more or less. It is time consuming. Studly guys. Some even respond to me.

 

Thanks.
