Know how you feel on that one Rad with the messages, there`s nothing worse than sending either a PM or a nod and the recipient can`t even be bothered to acknowledge your existence, personally I think thats just ignorance of the highest order. Most people are on here not just to find someone but also to make a few friends ( which I must admit, I have done) but also because we share a common interest, i.e. a love of bikes and the lifestyle that goes with it I came on here hoping to find "the one" and whilst it hasn`t happened yet, I`m not giving up just yet, stick with it Rad, I, for one, would be sorry to see you go mate
What makes me sad? when some people are offended when they don't get a virtual nod in response to one that they sent.
For myself personally, I don't send nods, what is the point?
A nod on the road is an acknowledgement of a fellow rider, nothing else, so why would we nod on a web site, as we are all members of the site it's a given we are all either bikers and or lovers of bikes.
If a nod is sent because a person fancies, or wants to make friends with, another member then surely a message would be better? I haven't yet learned the art of mind reading, so I appreciate a message to a nod which could have several meanings in the mind of the sender.
When I didn't have a man in my life and I got a nod I responded to it with a short message and most of the nodders ignored me. Sometimes I, incorrectly, assumed the sender was interested in me as more than a friend, which proved embarrassing when it became obvious they weren't.
Maybe that's what's happened to the recipients of your nods, Rad?
May I suggest you (applies to anyone really) send a PM, to go with the nod, to clarify? then hopefully a communication will start.
Also, may I suggest you attend some of the BM gatherings, we really are friendly folk and you will be most welcome?
agree with you to a point sandi,but unfotunately little cliques exist throughout life,and a circle of backs is harder to take than a circle of faces....myself,so delighted for nods or p.m.'s,i usually carpet bomb people with messages so long that they fall asleep.....sandi?the only way sometimes is to get out there and introduce yourself....beware the ides of march though,jinx57 in a room typing....
Hi Jinx, what date does the Ides of March fall on this year?
The only clique I know of, and it's not one that excludes others, is those members who live near to each other. They get together regularly because they live near each other but when they attend BM events they welcome others with open arms.
BM members really are friendly, and even tho I know that we can't like everyone we meet, there is no awkwardness or unfriendly behaviour at any of the gatherings.
i fully agree about meetings ,went to lower lode,met loads of people i've never seen before,and had an absolute blast...electronically,things are not so rosy unfotunately......nuff said,sun's out,bikes beckoning,jinx 57
In essence, it seems like there are two kinds of people that come onto this site, those that are here to make new friends and join in with all this site has to offer (I`d love to get to more meets but personal circumstances dictate otherwise sometimes) and the people who are really only using it as a way to meet a potential partner. I have to admit when I came on here it was for the latter but now I realise what this site is not just about that. BM is about friendship, camararderie etc. you`re right Sandi, the VAST majority of folk on here are wonderful human beings ( myself included, of course) and are very welcoming, but I still think a reply to a nod or PM still doesn`t cost anything and is just common courtesy.
