OK. CS is a well designed platform. We are all grateful.
Hard to improve on much, even for a highly skilled and intelligent researcher, as I might just be. But, folks, it would be nice for them to present the results of a little research of their own. The data should exist to do so, or would be a cinch to generate, and even easier to work with. Using, for example, self reports of success and failures in the CS search for love, they might be able to present various strategies for outcomes here, based on choice of search approach used, with probabilities for success or failure, along with any reasons given for the results, real or imagined. For example, should one resrtict searches to locals only, or look around the world? Best to spend a little time each day with only newest victims, or those on line? Best type of pics? And so on. A bit of this assistence exists, as in tips on profile composition, and how to avoid scams. Some sites do make a lame approach to my suggestion, but it's done so poorly, it wouldn't make it as a project in even an undergraduate marketing statistics course. Much less real academic pursuits. Could be presented statistically--- by age, race and sex. (Which incidentally qualifies someone as an epidemiologist, if a they might be doc broken down but these three variables.) Could even be a marketing tool for the fat cats at CS, helping them to be first to VALIDLY present probabilities of success by approaches to searching. They could hire me to do so, but if they have to ask my hourly rate, they can't afford my services. As in pricing yachts .Aa.

"why men pull out"
Made some friends, though, ones I value. So that was pretty cool
I agree with El, it would defeat their purpose of generating more wanna bes...
But what matters to me is that I have found so many friends and my learning is still very much in gear.
