"You can't expect too much from people who can't even write in English properly. But you could give us their profile name, and we would bombard them with insults. " That would be rude, and presumably a waste of energy, not sure these people understand it. | |||

"I still believe manners matter, even on websites like this. A simple “hello” costs nothing. Today, someone opened a conversation by asking me for fellation in broken English, without even bothering to read my profile, which is very clearly written. When I pointed out that basic manners still exist, I was called a c*nt and blocked. Some people want attention and gratification instantly, but collapse the moment they’re expected to communicate like adults. Frankly, being blocked by someone with no manners hardly feels like a loss. What do you think? " I think it's more to do with how people communicate in general now, they are so used to simply sending texts/messages etc etc and always in short form. If you can now click and get everything you need without communicating and hence the lack of manners. | |||

If you can now click and get everything you need without communicating and hence the lack of manners. " Technology made life easier, but convenience often breeds cognitive laziness. There are already studies on “digital amnesia” and “cognitive offloading” showing that people increasingly outsource memory, reasoning and even decision-making to devices and AI. We’re racing toward a society divided not by royalty and peasants, as in Medieval times, but similar by those capable of independent thought and those unable to function without a screen telling them what to think, buy, feel or say. Ironically, Gen Z may be the first generation in decades that, on average, hasn’t truly outsmarted their parents. Previous generations rebelled, adapted, built, repaired, questioned systems and learned through necessity. Many today grew up with infinite access to information, yet increasingly struggle with attention span, critical thinking, basic problem-solving and even face-to-face communication. Having information available is not the same as possessing intelligence. Technology should amplify the brain, not replace it. The people who will thrive are those who still know how to think outside the algorithm. | |||

"The problem is, so many guys take rejection so badly they get abusive, so guys don't respond. If someone replies with a polite no thanks and got, who who do you think you are you fat ugly cunt, didn't want to meet anyway, how would you respond? Youd stop replying wouldn't you and * can guarantee you they had happened to well meaning fellas on this site. You reap what you sow unfortunately. " This. I only reply if I'm interested. I have a hundred things in my life to actually worry about. This is not one. | |||

" I tend to laugh and wish them well, laughing at their 10 years old emotional intelligence pisses them even more, and then report. Unfortunately the admins don’t do anything about it. It amuses me when someone writes you and then say they didn’t wanted to meet, it’s really efficient, as trash takes itself out. | |||

"Good manners should be rewarded (pleasure) & bad manners punished (pain & humiliation) unless the opposite is preferred!" Nothing wrong with a little pee of gratitude. | |||

I’m not sure FabGuys admin can do a great deal about that… | |||

"the internet makes it fairly easy to be rude these days, i always wonder if these people would be like that if you were face to face with them?" I'm often accused of being rude. I dont think I am. I can be blunt, and I dont sugar coat shit, and I dont suffer fools, but it takes too much effort to be intentionally rude. I think many people are a bit melty these days, and hurty-feelings are the passive-aggressive's badge of honour. | |||
