IM - So many Questions - Well, Two, Actually I see more and more Altizens on IM and not in rooms (at least, not those I frequent). I understand that for many, IM has the advantage of being private, of not leaving a digital scroll that has to erased, and so forth. So, what are the rules of civility on IM? Is a polite introduction sufficient, such as, "I read your profile and think we might get along - would you like to chat and find out?" And after you send such a note (or you receive such a note) how long do you typically wait for a polite reply? Just curious. Thanks. |

I used to find that if I didn't reply fairly promptly they had moved on. But it's not always apparent to me that I have a message especially if I'm on iPhone. Sometimes it's a civil and hopefully interesting conversation between like minded persons who enjoy a solid conversation. But also there can be very short enquiry that appears to immediately need to get down to brass tacks and talk dirty. I gravitate away from this..... If it works I preferred to move to alt mail because they allows the conversation to continue on into the future..... I'm not always a good conversation though I think. I try to be. But it's not really about conversation here is it?
