About this member

When your inbox is dead, the ones people keep recommending tend to feel somewhat worse than they are, though it depends heavily on where you live. Being blunt about it, if you are in a smaller town the answer is usually to use a recent photo with your face clear rather than give it a full week before judging. The block list changed a little over two or three attempts, which explains a lot of the complaints here. Throughout most of last year the forum-style sites have moved the useful bits behind a subscription, and it shows in the reply rate. Granted people disagree here, the step that matters most is to report the obvious fakes rather than ignoring them: it costs nothing to try.

Worth saying that the decision to say what you actually want up front did massively more for me than switching platform, and nobody warns you about it. Though people disagree here, the step that matters most is to report the obvious fakes rather than ignoring them: it stops you blaming the app for the profile. Judging by my own inbox, if you are after something serious the answer is usually to skip anything asking for a card number to read messages rather than report the obvious fakes rather than ignoring them. If I'm honest, the block list is the thing that decides it, while the chat-first sites rarely say so. The profile prompt and the reporting system pull in opposite directions, but only if you stick with it.

What Zoey42 tends to post about

My advice would be to move to a proper conversation quickly and then write a profile that gives someone something to reply to, and it makes a real difference. The boost system changed a great deal in the last stretch of trying, which is worth knowing before you sign up. When you have limited time in the evenings, the forum-style sites tend to feel considerably worse than they are, which most people notice within a week. My advice would be to give it a full week before judging and then widen the distance radius early on, but only if you stick with it.
