I've given it a major overhaul using the best advice from guys with killer profiles (personalizing mine, of course), but I'm still getting the same lousy results... girls I message usually just view my profile and don't respond.

Help much appreciated.

Oh man, totally forgot about the privacy thing. It's viewable now

No one can help? I honestly think my profile looks pretty damn good... but for some reason, almost no replies.

Would really appreciate some feedback

Well, personally I thought your profile lacked a bit of personality, as in your own personality. Put something in there that's genuine, because while it obviously comes across that you're funny (Btw, I assume the typos in your self summary are on purpose? If not, get rid of them.) you don't really give anything about the "real" you, and that's somewhat important.

You can't give EVERYTHING away, but keep in mind that people in online dating are often looking for a specific type of person and you can't keep her interest as easily as in the field by barfing routines and cocky funny at her. Give your snark some context .

Other than that, you're a good looking guy, your pictures are great, especially the last one with the chick. You obviously have a sense of humor, so I think you'll be good to go.

Thanks for the help man.

I actually had some more info in there yesterday, but I thought it was too long. So I cut out most of the favs section. The personality bit is a criticism I usually here though, so i'll give that a shot.

Strangely enough, I'm having a hundred times more success on POF, but the types of girls I usually get along with are almost entirely on OKC. Fuckin weird.

Can you explain what you mean by 'giving my snark some context'?

Honestly, your profile is pretty funny, but it almost seems like a joke. Not sure if that is your intention, but that's what I got from it too. Add some serious parts about you.

It was actually a lot more serious yesterday, but after working it and re-working it and still getting shit results (no joke, messaging girls I have a 96% match with, we have all the same interests, about same level of physical attractiveness, similar personalities, etc, most view my profile so I know they got my msg..... and no response), I just DGAFed and filled it with bullshit. Just gonna keep it that way and not worry too much until I find something that works.

I kind of wish I'd kept it the same as it was before I got back into online game. I wasn't doing phenomenally, but my results were a lot better than this

Yeah, I hear you there. I guess I'm not the only one going through a dry online spell. Give it a few days I guess.

Olaphs first comment kinda sums up my thoughts as well. That's what I mean about giving some context to your snark, don't make your profile a comedy show either

Okay, did some research around this and other forums and other sites... gave it a major overhaul. Let me know what you guys think.

I actually think this one is kind of decent... it's even been getting some views by girls I didn't even view or contact (no messages yet though). Still, I would like to put a little more alpha/sexuality in it without being obvious.

I think it's because of your face looks like shit

Correction: Let me know what you think if you're not interested in video games and anime more than girls*

It isn't bad but it isn't great either. I dont like starting off a profile on a negative, so while disclaiming you ant a creeper and trying to be cute it still starts off on a bad feeling when you talk about weird guys and bad dates right off the bat.

Get ride of the photo with the Indian guy giving the two thumbs up, its the second picture with your ex girlfriend in it not looking especially hot and your face in that pix looks extremely odd. You may also try want to use the break-dancing picture as your main profile as it will cause most woman to dig deeper intot he profile if their ambiguous about your looks

Done and done. Replaced the indian dude photo with one of me better-dressed with a hotter girl. I think 6 photos is the max I should put up

Any suggestions on how to better the profile text? Usually the criticism I get is that it doesn't really say anything about me. I feel like something is missing from this one, but I'm not sure what

I would agree with that criticism, it seems your playing it safe. What you have is nice , funny filler material with the right frame but you are going to have to sell yourself a little bit, that means turning off some chicks but attracting others by being bold. Its liek a resume like that, the best resume for one job disqualifies you fo others, jack of all trade resumes dont work, neither do those types of profiles. Your profile says "nice, probably cool fun guy"; that isn't enough. There is no main section where anyone would get a sense of your status or your potential.

Perhaps talk about what your passionate about (exaggerate your passion), talk about how your job inspires you and others, talk about your future and how you always get what your after, take the reader on a positive trip. Also act more picky in who your looking for and set boundaries, be somewhat more Alpha, make your profile something girls aspire to qualify for.

All these things can be seen on other guys profiles, id keep looking for those types of examples, girls love that shit
