I think you can think this through and answer your own question Libertine. These gals come and go faster then a Kansas tornado! I wouldn't trust posts that are more then a year old personally. Even if they are still in the game, most of them are constantly changing their phone numbers or location they are residing in. Just not worth the trouble searching through all the trash.

Go for it then Statue! To each is too their own! If you want to spend time reaching out to "long lost flames", no one is stopping you! IMO it isn't worth the hassle trying to locate some of these gals. Many of them have quit or changed, names, phone #'s, are UTR, etc. I wasn't implying it couldn't be done, just that I wouldn't waste the time trying. You simply asked a question if we had seen old ads and received responses....

So one thing about written communication is that the connotations are not there and we may misinterpret the mood with which something is said.
So "digging through the trash may sound like someone is calling those old ads trash, but it also something people do when they're searching they may have misplaced and thrown away.
The second one that's bolded starts with an important acronym. IMO. So for bigkansas that means calling up someone from long ago is not worth it, but that only applies to them. It's not outright explicitly stated, but when someone says IMO, it's about something contextual and the stance is based on personal preference.
Big kansas does outline some of the potential pitfalls of calling an old ad (number change, retired, etc). So if you consider those potential issues and still wanna reach out, go for it!
Miscommunications and misperceptions can happen in written communication but big kansas is trying to deescalate, so I doubt that the phrases that were bolded were meant to jab at you. Originally Posted by ughiphopfan
