I send messages along the lines of:

Saw your profile, thought I would say hi. Hows the site going for you?

Things like that. Not so much as 'want to chat'.

I get messages like that all the time. Really annoys me! :mad:

Why join a dating site and then send people you have no interest in dating messages ? :mad:

Hate the ones with just "hi" also grrr
