Example 1:

This one is completely ok in my book. She's merely thanking me for my service, no different than somebody coming up to me and shaking my hand at the mall. To this message, I responded cordially.
Verdict:
Example 2:
Quote
Everything was ok, up to those last two sentences. "I find you cute too
"Cute" is typically not what comes to mind. This may be due to my generally untrusting and suspicious personality, but why would I want to add a total stranger to my Facebook so they can get access to my personal information? Because she thinks steampunk-esque anonymity is "cute". Something's not right with this and I didn't bother responding.
Verdict:

Example 3:
Quote
This one is what set me off and why I decided to make this thread. It's great that you like the military and it's great you're working toward a goal, but do you honestly believe that that alone is enough for me to lift a finger for a total stranger whom I'll likely never meet?
No, of course you don't. So to up the incentive, you've decided to "reward" me with a bunch of sexy pics. Really? You're offering your body to a stranger as incentive for a favor? That's just being a straight-up whore. You're no better than the girls at the strip club; I'm sure they're doing it to reach their dreams and aspirations too.
Perhaps I may be persuaded by such if there was a legitimate chance of you and I ever getting intimate, but that's not likely to happen by any account. And it's not even intimacy you're promising. You're promising to send "sexy pics" over the internet. THE INTERNET! The same place I have complete and total access to terabytes of pornography without performing any type of favor whatsoever! And I'm sure that's exactly where these supposed "sexy pics" of you that you're promising to send are going to come from anyway. If not, other than only furthering my previous assumptions on your promiscuity, I have no way of verifying your age and I'll be damned If I get sent to jail as a damn pedo because you happen to be 16 or some shit.
The fact that she thinks that she, a total stranger on the internet, can flatter me and seduce me enough to do anything for her is down-right insulting. I take it that she thinks I'm weak-willed and easily susceptible to manipulation by just about any female who gives me the time of day. Sorry honey, but I've got standards, and you clearly don't meet them. So go fuck yourself.
I was about to reply something similar to this to her, but fortunately, my conscience and reason told me to ignore her and rant about her here instead.
Overreaction? Maybe. But once again, I have standards that are so easy to impose on total strangers.
Verdict:

TL;DR: If I don't know you, don't try to get friendly and ask me for favors over the internet. Better yet, leave me the fuck alone.
Also, Merry Christmas
