Hello, fellow sludge-pit dwellers!

Thanks to your warm welcome and helpful tutelage, I think I finally have a nibble! IP reads as satellite provider, so I suspect Africa somewhere. This is a dude from FMF. He'd initially wanted to IM chat with me there, but my ISP (or perhaps the crappy site's own problems) crash that after 2 lines of text or so, and so I'd managed to get him to email me. He's told me he was a conservation park ranger or some such crap, so I asked him what park and said that I love nature. Without answering which park it is , he's told me some more b0ll0x about his work:

thers a variety of things but we dont have poisonous or dangerous animal nor plant,,its all greenish all year round but sometimes dry all depend on the weather,,,can walk throught the mountain and explore everything there's lots to see here and we are surrounded with water lots of beaches amoung the best in the world lol pround of my country

And within a few minutes (I'd left gmail and was afk eating) also sent:

do you have skype account that will be nice i really want to know who im chatting with!

Now, I am female, and do have skype and have no intention whatsoever of letting him see me. (I am guessing this is a request for a video chat, or?) Any ideas on how to go on from here?

First, tell him that you really prefer to get to know someone before you skype. Or tell him you don't have skype. Or tell him you don't have a camera on your computer. Tell him that email lets you know aperson better. Or that you work a lot and don't have time for chat ot IM. The excuses are endless.

Excuses I've used (that have worked):

"I'm not some hussy whore giving web sex!"

"This one time, I forgot I wasn't wearing pants and that dude I was skyping with captured my naked butt when I walked away from the camera and then he told me he was gonna leak it all over the internets!!! I don't skype anymore."

"What's skype?"

"Oh, I don't play video games"

"My computer crashed when I try to sign on, email me!"

Thank you both! I will see if he emails me more by tomorrow (I am not some hussy web cam sex forum-dweller to be checking my email this late!), and then pick one to start with! Very Happy

Interestingly, he does not appear to be using a script. At least not yet. I replied with:

Ronny, good morning!

That sounds really remarkable! What's the name of the park, I want to look at some pictures! And surrounded by water? Sounds so pretty! It's great that you are proud of your country - what is it? Your FMF profile is a bit confusing, but I know it didn't have Sweden listed as countries to pick from, either so I had to pick UK. Silly, right?

It snowed here yesterday evening, but melted by this morning. It is not yet really winter. Winter is really beautiful here - have you ever seen forest under a meter of snow?

About chatting - I don't have skype, no. I work a lot so not much time for that kind of thing. I'd like us to get to know each other better through here if that is ok?

If I have made any egregious mistakes, please feel free to point those out. I hope it's not a bad idea to ask them a lot of questions about them and their country and their professed job.

I particularly like how the park (no name) in the country he's proud of (no name) is really beautiful but there is nothing dangerous or poisonous there!

Looks like you are doing fine there. A couple questions aren't too bad although one per mail is the suggested route.

I think your boy lives in Eden.

Eden. Very pretty, nothing is dangerous. Sounds about right.

My country is called seychelles and from the indian ocean such a nice place,,,no never been or seen winter forest under meter snow but dreaming about it maybe someday if you invite me lol,,,you're very lucky that you will spent chrismass under snow here in my country its always sunshine and sometimes rain we have only two season,,,

Yeah it will be nice if we can see each other and talk freely face to face and i would like if you can send me some pictures of you that will be great,,,but skype you just need to download on your computer but for now will keep it like that maybe one day that ill change!!

He's awfully off-script, or at least really good at what he does. Do you think he's free-forming, or did I accidentally nab a real person? I'm freaked out that he's actually reading my emails and responding to them. I didn't think he was a real person, since this dude was hanging on FMF for days on end (every time I logged in he was there), but I leave it up to you lot to commen.

Well, if he is really from the Seychelles he is one lucky guy... beautiful islands and the people there have quite a good income (prepared to Africa).

Ask him on what island he lives, that should be interesting.

Here are the national parks of the Seychelles:

Ste. Anne Marine
Morne Seychellois
Baie Ternay Marine
Curieuse Marine
Port Launay Marine
Praslin (Vallée de Mai, Maital) — UNESCO-world heritage
Silhouette Marine
Moyenne Island National Park

Special Reserves:
Aride Island
Cousine
Aldabra — UNESCO-world heritage
La Digue Veuve

There is one island where they shot the commercials for bacardi rum, it´s either La Digue or Praslin, i can´t remember. HE should know ...

Just giving you a few things you could ask...

Maneater, thanks, you knocked some sense into me here - duh, I didn't think twice about what he actually said. Seychelles are amazing - I've only seen pictures and such. But somehow I doubt that anyone from there would be on FMF!

Off to ask my lover boy which island he's from and such! Wink
