I'd rather be face to face than Skype. I'm not interested in long distance so there's no reason not to meet them if I'm interested. So would everyone........... That's not the point. Dig deeper young padawan ;)

No ladies, why jazz yourself up? Just be yourself. That is one of the benefits of skype! What you see is what you get! What the hell Pilgrim? Did you get into my mind? All the excuses are BS. No reason to hide....... You show me your face and I'll show you mine. People are just so afraid. They think they know computers but they don't. It's all smartphone BS now. If you asked one of them to pull up a word document on a PC................. HUH?????? I think most people know they can skype with a smartphone, I also think most are aware of how to use a computer AND pull up a word document on a PC. Maybe some people just don't like skyping, it is possible. If the person you are talking to doesn't want to skype, they don't need an excuse to justify it...they just don't want to skype with you period. If that is a deal-breaker for you, move on to someone else...or you could belittle them, tell them they don't understand their own PC's, and that they MUST be hiding if you they don't...i'm sure THAT will change their minds

I truly believe most ladies know what men want to do with skype, if one pushes it on them they run knowing what is coming....unless they want to see what you have...if they want to use it to validate someone is real "THEY" will ask for it! I certainly would do it if asked but would never suggest it. Just my opinion and we all know what opinions are like.

Some actual smart guys and gals want to know about a person. I just think most are afraid to show their face and talk. If you're out there give it, let's Skype............... Hell, and I'm shy LOL

I find it amusing that that any opinions that are contradictory to your own are "pure bs", that seems to be a favorite phrase of yours as well as "You guys know (fill in the blank) right?" I've met many people with similar type phrases and the commonality with these people is they always seem to think they are the smartest in the room, and that everyone else's opinions are then ignored and dismissed because OBVIOUSLY they come from people who are perceived as having a lower intelligence level then themselves.

Heard a lot of scammers using skype, thats the first thing about skype. 2. I dont speak english that good, so its not that easy to skype and get a real comunication. Think its easy for people how is good in english, of some reasons people wont speak danish ;-) I have to fell i know the person a bit first before i go on skype, havent tried to skype yet Haha...a bit behind in using that. Not all that dont want to skype is fake/scammers, but a lot that want to skype is, some use avatar insted and you think its the right person behind, but its not. Make sure the sometimes look around, an avatar can only look forwards, not to the sites yet. and you will never se the back of an avatar.

If you're out there give it, let's Skype............... Hell, and I'm shy LOL Okay, firstly Its really quite simple isn't it?.....some are hesitant to skype some are not, its just another form of communication, some are hesitant to write endless letters some are not..... Me personally I wouldn't skype until I knew someone reasonably well after several letters first.... And that's no BS..... Secondly, you appear to be following this theme of harping on across multiple threads about wanting women to contact you, I am sure I am not the only one to notice this.....this is looking like desperation and your insistence to want to skype at first glance is going to put most women off...JMHO..... Don't be getting creepy man....that is BS....

Yaa...it also happened many times with me..The person to whom I was thinking as female after calling her I come to know that she was man himself.

A few years back when I had a pc I did have skype, but it really slowed everything down really bad, so I assume it would be worse with this didi I pad.

No, as much as hate Networking, I'm trying to weave my way into the forum. I do not knock others unless it's deemed necessary. I take everyone at "FACE" value. Please don't mock me.

People shoot down yahoo messenger all the time but I find I like it better. I find dating site "chats" are horrendously slow if they work at all. If you're on a dating site for any length of time the scammers/hustlers are easy to detect, usually within the first day or two. It's very easy to delete them and put them on an ignore list. I find I write better than start conversations for what ever reason...ok once started...but tried Skype one time and we both just sat there and stared at each other for she wasn't a good talker even worse. Skype IM/chat is ok...guess it's what you're used to.

Yahoo chat is decent. I don't use it, but it's what I caught my wife using cheating on me. I was actually updating her PC at the time....... Yummy.

I don't have Skype. My internet is on my mobile phone. I doubt it would work on a phone.
