Vomit your thoughts and feelings

I wonder if there is on the earth any other country where civilization is reduced to saying "please", "sorry" and "apologies" at the beginning or at the end of every sentence while it is very famous with its civilization?

Except a very recent exception due to a very personal reason, I have thus far been one who received PM first rather than one who sent PM first. Over the years this has reached to an extent to feel a bit personal proud. Indeed I am now proud of never having sent and having always received PM first.

Receiving PMs from Admins, Mods and spammers is not always a reason to be proud

Receiving PMs from admin, mods and spammers, which is very rare, doesn´t change the fact that I have always been one who received PM first

As for spammers, suffice it to say that receiving PMs from them must be something worth mentioning while you, at a girls-/women-guided Turkish site such as TC, declare at your profile page that you are male - don´t you think?

Just teasing about your being proud .

 

I don´t know which profile you looked at, but I specified "none" next to "gender".  A daft entry to make, I know, but I don´t understand how you interpret "none" the way you have. No matter, it´s not important.

 

Gezegen? . . . hmm . . . I´m sure I know your cousin . . . Guzunder {#emotions_dlg.bigsmile}

Quoting gezegen

, at a girls-/women-guided Turkish site such as TC, 

 

Who let the Girl Guides in? 

 

DYB DYB DYB!  DOB DOB DOB!   (Oops sorry, wrong gender.)

To help you (you as a user called ´peacetrain´ ) understand what I meant in my previous post, I have below made the necessary change. I must admit, however, that "a girls-/women-guided [Turkish site]" didn´t gain the intended meaning- a meaning as in "guided bomb/missile". Still very clear is the context - almost every female user feels they must declare that they don´t want spam (because they are target) while almost every male user sends (because they are in a way ´guided bomb´ ).

"As for spammers, suffice it to say that receiving PMs from them must be something worth mentioning while one/people, at a girls-/women-guided Turkish site such as TC, declare(s) at their profile page that one/they is/are male."
