Still slowly getting views and bookmarks, but otherwise, no real response. Well, how’s the search going now? i’m having a lot of the same troubles you are, but i just joined the site around a week ago. These are, obviously, just my experiences and opinions. Preferably an enticing but brief status message with some picture links. Of course, the basis for finding partners is a good avatar, and a good profile. It’s fine as a baseline, but it isn’t all you should do. You can, perhaps, tell from my tone that I don’t hold this method in too high regard. Then hope that it isn’t just “hi” or someone who clearly hasn’t read your profile. Sit quietly for hours, days, weeks, and hope that someone else decides to approach you. Lastly, there is the method of finding partners that way, way too many on F-Chat use. Of those remaining, you may have a 1% hit rate, but it’s still a way for you to try to find someone. You can discount a lot of them based on name and avatar, and just skim the remaining ones. You just have to be willing to skim through many, many pages of characters. Some may discover you through it, and you may discover relevant partners through it. The next way to find partners is the character search system. Don’t force it, don’t be pushy, but just remember that talking in channels relevant to your character is a fine way to get some eyes on you. Chatting in channels isn’t something you should do just as an ad, but it’s fine to pass the time, and demonstrates what kind of player you are to potentially interesting people that might otherwise never give you a second thought. This, however, leads me into how to actually find partners. I think we might have some interesting play, but, as always, schedules tend to put these things some time in the future. But we do have some overlap, and they write well. They said they figured I was looking for something else, and, at least mostly, I am. In any case, my talking in one channel actually lead to me messaging someone that, at least based on my profile and ad, wouldn’t consider me a match. Particularly if they’re purple, or pansexual pink. Those that are just looking for a quick one-off scene that’s straight to the point, they probably do fine with it. The ad system is fine, but almost nobody that I’d consider interesting seem to use it. I’ve believed, for a long time, that the actual best way to find partners on F-List is passive discovery. Idling, occasionally setting myself to looking, very occasionally posting the new ad, and trying to start conversation in this or that room, now and then. The summary of the last few days is quite simple: More of the same. Persistence is needed, but it does pay off. If anyone ever stumbles across this, here’s the takeaway: I suppose it’s only fair that I finish this brief saga with the update that I did eventually find 2 people as partners.
