me : behind her, he looks cool (a cosplay guy). Too bad the white dress creature blocking the visual
HB : oh
HB : then don't look.
HB : well, that's me. Behind me is a cosplay.
me : he looks pissed off got his handphone borrowed
HB : that would be my handphone -_-
me : I didn't say YOU borrowed from HIM didn't I?
me : why do you feel offended lol
HB : I don't understand
HB : who are you btw?
HB : I don't know you.
me : oh I'm ---
me : in --- (our community forum) ---

When you are trying to sarge someone online and use C&F jokes, you should at least use proper English and make sure what you're saying makes sense. When I read the quoted lines above I do not understand what you're saying. Calling a girl a creature is bad too, you could've thought things through a little more before attempting to contact her.



me : that's scary
HB : ?
me : your avatar

maybe use: OoO your avatar is scary


I'd trash the rest of this and try a different route next time because it makes you come across as being a jerk.


HB : who are you btw?
HB : I don't know you.


Maybe something like "I was just looking through some pictures in (community forum) and .....".

We don't use english. We speak indonesian. The conversation was translated. I didn't really say exactly "creature". Kind of difficult to find the equivalent in english. But nevertheless I got your point. I use this one with other friends. kind of like :

"Hey that's cool"
"what?"
"your avatar" (a photo of herself with background somewhere)
"why thank you!"
"yes, i love the view in the background, too bad something blocking it. I wish I can see it clearly"

It does work most of the time. But usually do that to 7.

This time she's a 9 so I try to modified it a little, figure I should neg her first. Like mystery's "where's the switch off button". To make matter worse females are barely found in the our community. She's 9, surrounded by AFCs, everytime she posts something long and serously, some other guys responded "hei --- " or just heart smiley or some guys just trying to kiss her ass. "woah that's cool" "that's great" something like that.

So... playful from the start. noted . I was clueless. Thanks.

cool. Thanks very much for the feedback.

Can I actualy salvage this conversation, and re-open her again?

I could use some more feedbacks since lately i'll be staying in the office more often and can't really do field training. Hopefully not. Anyone?

You're done with this one. Drop the attitude in chats. Having a "Mystery" attitude in a chat will get you blown out so quick. If you're chatting online, get them to chat and keep it interesting. Find common interests without trying hard and asking too many questions.

You're new to this, so heed this warning: Negs don't work online with someone you just met. Ever.

They work on hot chicks in clubs but they have no place online.

I don't believe that. The neg is working I think. Her reply was quite quick. I got her attention. I do think transition was my problem. Where to after I got her attention?

But yeah MrGravez pointed out some stuffs that could be adjusted to be alittle bit better. Well probably she's working aswell at that moment. I'm not really interested with her, but I just need more input, sort of like MrGravez did.
