It's really annoying to get mail from somebody who has no picture in his profile. I just ignore it. What do you do?

If they have written a semi decent/interesting profile I will ask them to send a pic.. if not I delete and or even block them. Perhaps they don't want the world to see their pic.

Time wasters.. and often even married trying to hide.

...but there are so many variables... just do what feels right for you..

Could be they're just ugly. I send them the phone number of a plastic surgeon.

You are definitely no a "sight for sore eyes" for woman so what makes you comment about ugly people like that?

I get what you’re saying, however the phrase book and cover springs to mind.
I got a nice message one day, which I answered asking why no photo.
The Lady explained she had taken them down due to unwanted attention, it turns out she was absolutely stunning.

For me it would depend on the message and if I thought she was hiding something.

Like everything else when searching a profile, whether it's distance, ethnicity, age, country, etc, it is about your own preferences, and if you prefer to see their picture first, then I guess you either reject or just ignore them. I wouldn't bother asking them to send me a picture when there are thousands of other equally interesting written profiles which include pictures available to view, and I don't want to give my personal email address away just to receive a picture from someone.

I post no picture bcuz let's see I'm ugly a thief and a killer ..speculate the hate and negativity..

I'm sure there are all kinds of reasons why people don't post their pictures maybe it's Oh I don't know..because they don't want to..Naw that can't be it..there must be something wrong with us..ok


But hey not to worry about spewing the negative hate..cuz people without pictures can't read either...spock

Depending on what their email says I look at their profile.
Depending on what their profile says, I will tell them I'm going to be somewhere at a certain time and ask them to meet me there. Starbucks, chilis, barnes and scrobles, something.

IMO it doesn't mean anything unless it's in person.

IMO little to no difference between someone with no photo, no profile and someone with the most beautiful and honest photos imaginable, along with the most compatible seeming honest and open profile, if neither of them want to meet and actually date.

Less stressful and wasteful of (lost) money and time for a quick 30 minute date somewhere local and public than sitting online for hours, days, weeks, months, whatever. Especially less wasteful than sitting online chatting for however long only to show up and the photos were generous, or old, or fake, or photoshopped, or misleading.

From my perspective a "complete" profile is less desirous than a basic profile with no photos.

IMO profiles are just advertising.
I'd rather do a taste test then rely on the commercial.

So, that's what I do when someone without a photo emails me (when my filters are open on a legitimate dating site) and why.

Thank you. I totally agree with you,i don't use foto due to personal protection but if i chat with a honest man and he desires to see my foto, i will put My profile picture till we get to know each other better before proceeding to skype to view each other. I can say majority of people who have contacted me with picture on their profile are scarmmers with other peoples fotos, i know them when i ask them to go for video call, they will start making many líes.

I don't get annoyed, I just don't answer messages from members of a dating site without photo. I just ignore them.

In real life (bar, beach, bowling alley, fair, parade, whatever) you SEE someone and decide to go talk to them.
You don't just strike up conversations with random people behind walls. You SEE them first, then you try to get to know them.
Bingo Bango.

Online, You are not SEEING them, you are SEEING a photo that you have no idea if it is that person or someone else.

There ARE real people here looking to meet someone.
There are actual photos of those persons on their profiles.
The photo is the attention getter.
Just like in real life you SEE them first.

The person that abuses their photo are liars, plain and simple.
If you are so gullible or desperate that you fail to notice the scam, you get what you get.

Even in real life the ones that LOOK to good to be true usually are.
Online dating requires the same kind of common sense.

That being said, I have dated women without a photo and yes, they did turn out to be liars. I will not "Blind Date" again but I can and do have message conversations with women with no photos. There is no reason I can't be friendly to them. I just refuse to meet them in real life till I see them on live video.
