no doubt most here have signed up to a few diferent dating sites. personally, i've tried a few but am always wary of forking out good money so i have a look around and tend not to bother. what i've noticed is that many of these sites are sending messages to your account from bogus accounts in the hope that you will sign up and pay for the privilage of being able to reply to these messages. personally, i just delete my account when i see this happening. anyone actually paid good money to these scammers??

funny topic

yes there is alot of misrepresentation

i discovered once my foto posted on a site id never been to
that the site maintains profiles of men and women
that either were copied from somewhere else
or people that did a trial short term membership
and after saying no thanks
after a short time their profile went back up as active-
to attract other members

some show online when the person isnt or never say
more than 'hasnt visited in one week'

sad they dont think they can have a spot fun enough
for people to hang out

oh my
fun enuf is awful grammar

help

btw-hiiiiiwave

I find it too hard to d=iscern who is telling the truth and who isn't anymore so I just stay away from the dating thing altogether now...I have better things to do with my time then figure out game players and liars!!!!!!!!!

Yes it is difficult to tell who is who and what is what.
I think people that do this are so sad.

Nope, never. And don't plan to, either.

I have yet to be a victim. Also if I can help it, I do my best to make sure no one else gets victimized as well.

well I actually paid for a month on a site, figured I never did and the people who owned it were actually part of an organizeation I am in, met a really nice Latin girl, talked for a few years and things changed due to another woman was interested in me.......

I don't spend money on the net though.....
