That's another problem: crossing all your T's but getting no response. My profile is complete, too, and I'd write personalized requests but almost never would get a response, much less a positive one. After writing about 100 requests over a few trips/years and getting 1-2 "yeses" and 3-4 "thanks but can't" responses, I stopped trying to be hosted.
