I know earlier on the gendermatching was not enabled because not enough people filled out it. Is gendermatching referring to writers or the characters? If it's the Characters I play portion that was being waited on, are we getting closer? These days I see a lot more players (active players) with that section filled out than not.

Thank you!

I think that's matching things like Player A plays :"Males who submit and are attracted to females" with Player B plays: "Females who dominate and are attracted to males".

That my assumption. And the last update said it was pending until people actually filled that part out. My basic inquiry is are we at that point yet, where enough have filled it out?

I think it is enabled and has ever been, but I believe Veks said that it is not worthwhile as not enough people have filled the info and therefore the results aren't as relevant as would be desired. But in terms of functionality, I think it works...

No, it isn't enabled. If you click on the "players" tab at the top of the forums, you see the message.

Please fill it out and convince others to do so : )

So it is not currently enabled.

You're probably right about the fact that there are probably enough people to have filled it out. You might PM Veks and ask him directly. (Don't forget to say hello to him anyway and tell him how awesome he is. ;) )

Thanks will do, on both accounts.

Any word back on this?  ...about the Gendermatching, I mean.  We all know how awesome Veks is.  (He helped me with an issue I had.)

Hurray! New signature!  How do you get the stupid plastic wrapper off this freaking thing?

Nope I did not hear back from him on this. It was probably a busy time for him when i asked.

Gah, sorry.

Mostly it's because I've been wanting to focus on the new software instead.

I love filling things out. When I get approved I'll be all over that.

Oh it's fine. I am not expecting any magic wand instant gratification. I was mostly curious if participation in the new system had reached the point when the effort would make sense is all.

I've usually figured the problem was often that the guys mainly attempt instant gratification, and women like more build-up. 

Shrugs.  Maybe I'm just speaking for myself (feminine side thereof).  :-\

I think part of the reason why people are not fillingout the O/Os is because they see everyone having their own O/Os thread instead of the applet. Do we know what percentage of people actually have the applet filled out?

Well, some people do go both ways.  [/Ray Bolger]

Naturally I don't have numbers or anything, but are you encountering a lot of people that don't have it filled out? These days, i rarely see them which is completely different from a couple months after the feature was released.

I have it mostly filled out - there are some aspects of it that confuse me.
I also have an o/o thread, 'cause .. well .. . .. . everybody has one?

Sorry if I make no sense. My brains feel kind of disconnected from the rest of me.
