Depends on the person. I wouldn't "just" date anybody who also "just" dates a bunch of other people.
it's kind of hard to tell sometimes if they are just keeping themselves open or really looking to play the field
i dont have a dating profile and haven' for years, so i can't exactly remember what i did. i think i met a couple girls around the same time but not more than that and i don't think i took the profile down
from hearing about friends online dating, they mostly go on only 2 or 3 dates with each person and it fizzles out fast, so i can see keeping it up while not exclusive.
Why not give it a chance? What would you think is the other party kept theirs up?
Seems if you want something with a potential you offer it a fair shake otherwise expect nothing more than you put out.
I'm curious about how many people do this. Say you met someone and you have gotten past the 3-5th date, are just dating but not in a relationship, do you normally keep your dating profile up to advertise for more dates, if you plan on still dating someone?
I didn't vote in your poll as neither option would be my choice. I have always kept my profile up until we have reached a mutual decision to take them down. In my own experience, it was always the guy that made the call, and I have always found that to work best for me. Actually the only time that I would say it didn't, was the very first guy that I went out with. He wanted me to take it down after our very first meeting.

Why aren't you giving someone a chance if you are leaving your dating profile up while you are not exclusive yet? Doesn't not being exclusive imply the possibility of dating other people, whether meeting them online or in person?
There is still a chance that it will work out. At some point the decision will be made to either stop seeing each other or being an official couple. But in the meanwhile, I'm not sure why it would be necessary to remove one of your option to meet people.

It depends on how much I like the person. I always keep the profile up unless we've had a conversation about being exclusive or taking them down because I don't want to appear to eager. It can really scare a person if you take your profile down all of a sudden when they're thinking that everything is still casual. However, if I'm really into the person, I won't be looking for other guys whether the profile is still up or not. If I'm not that into him, I will keep the profile up AND keep looking. The challenge for me is to not check how often the other person is logging into the site because that can drive you crazy if you really like them.
