it should be general rule to at least say what you want. A simple "Hey" is not going to work. I personally get a ton of them a day and if I don't know you it you are way down the list to get a reply.
A typical icq convo with someone I don't know often goes like this:
Hey
4 hours later my reply
Hey
4 hours later their reply
Hey you still there
4 hours later my reply
Here now
4 hours later their reply
Let me know when you are around
4 hours later my reply
Drop me an email roald @t freeones .com time zones are a bitch you know.
Hate it! Don;t understand why people can not at least say what they are contacting you for or just send an email.
