Q:I am a woman, and I keep seeing ads and pics of women on your site. What is up with that?
Answer
Before you login, the site does not know who you are or what gender you are, so we wouldn't know what to show you. But once you login, you should be shown only men's photos and profiles. However, the banner ads are from Google, and not under our control.
Also, there are 8 boxes across the bottom of some pages. They have a mixture of ads and CS profiles. But they are also from Google and not controlled by us.

Q:I blocked a location (or age range), but someone from there was still able to contact me. How is this possible?
Answer
You can block members by gender, location, marital status, or age range. But once in a while, you may want to contact someone outside your location or age range.
If you do email someone that you have blocked, then they won't be able to contact you back.
So we have designed an "override" where if you contact them first, then they can contact you back.
Sometimes members get likes and respond with an email that says "I'm not interested". This email will trigger the "override" and allow them to email you.
Go to www.youtube.com, find the video that you want to post in your blog, and copy the URL of that video. Then paste that into your blog between [youtube][/youtube] tags.
For example: [youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SaA_cs4WZHM[/youtube]

Q:Why is the Like button missing from some profiles?

You can only Like someone that is in your own area, and is the gender you are seeking.
