There has to be a better way

[kopfhorer1]

I've skimmed the personal ads here from time to time. I don't do it often because with all due respect to those members who do post, I find them mighty depressing. It mostly seems to be males engaged in a futile search for females, who it seems to this observer studiously avoid our personals and all others'.

My semi-educated guess is that in personal ad culture, here or elsewhere, there exist certain assumptions. I.E., men who place personal ads can't meet women in the usual way because of serious character defects, bad looks, etc. It's also assumed that men who post in personals columns only want one thing which isn't necessarily related to tickling.

Unfortunately I have no ideas of my own about how to make the system work better at bringing people together for good, clean G, PG-13 or even NC-17 rated fun. (I will make one suggestion. There ought to be a separate category for ads from "professionals" like the one I just saw in our personals column today). Has anyone else here got any ideas? I understand that Nerve Personals dodged a lot of the typical negative issues surrounding meeting via personal ads by taking a radically innovative approach (basically, they aggressively worked to clean out the negative vibes and assumptions), at least until their birdbrain owners sold their operation out to (eeeyyewwww!) Adultfriendfinder.com.

the hollywood brother tries to encourage people to use and not give up o nthe personal system here. it is just that not too many people post or respond to it. The hollywood brother never understood. The hollywood brother just always tell people to never give up o nthere tickling dreams because it might come true one day. The hollywood brother do wonder however how we can get more people active i nthe personal system here on the ofrum. with over 50,000 members we should get some good suggestions on this thread

Well, I began this thread back in August, and only the 'bro has responded to it. Surely someone here has some good ideas.

I subscribed 2 months ago to alt.com and match.com and so far have had maybe 3 women write back on match.com out of hundreds. My profile isn't that bad, and so I won't be renewing if the women are that set against meeting online. Alt.com gives you the option to look for women into tickling, but the focus of that site is bdsm so most of the girls are into being slapped around and used : ( Still I have received probably better than 10 replies out of no more than 50 girls written to, but alas none of the women in my area really seemed genuinely interested. I think personal ads for 20 somethings are a waste of time.
