I've seen a few people make their way from Matchdoctor. Does anyone know what happened over there? It used to be a great place but when the blogs all went political it went to hell.

A few years ago I saw Match Doctor - So I looked at it for about 2 minutes & concluded No thanks. ---- Someone I know mentioned it recently, so I looked again only to find the whole set up has been changed & the page looks totally uninviting except maybe to computer experts - For me it was too complicated to even read. .

Bladewound: WTF is Matchdoctor?
It was a free dating site with blogs, forums, email.
Much like CS, with the exception the members there were much friendlier to newbies.
If you didn't know something, you could ask a question and not give a WFT response.


Hi whatagal, long time no see!

MustangWriter, I used to live in Boerne. Miss it when it was a quaint, small town with no traffic. How are you liking it there?

"What happened over at MD? Do you know?"

Yes, there were a few things happening at the same time, but the main issue was a few members who were booted out returned with a vengeance flooding the blogs and forums. The owner would come online, delete them and (often within minutes) they would return doing it all over again.

To eliminate scammers, he implemented a different password system linked to the email used to create a members profile, but many who forgot their email or passwords got auto-booted.

Without warning, he linked their URL to another site and all was gone.
Too bad he didn't set the controls to 'read only' so 10+ years of good blogs and posts would have been archived.
