That's a new one to me. Could you give an example? Thanks!

It's a topic in another thread right now. But if you see something like:

NO DRUGGIES
I hate cheaters and liars!
If you're only here for a one night stand, move on

...etc., then it means they can't tell if people are heavy drug users and they fall for scams by cheaters/liars, or were played a guy/guys seeking a ONS.

Few people LIKE these things, but the people that feel the need to put it in their profile are the people that have been wronged by them recently, and will likely continue to be wronged by them because they're not learning any better.

I don't do online dating but I could imagine using filters and certain angles as your profile picture can be manipulating and deceiving.
Many dating sites make provisions regarding children. And if they don't, you'd always have an opportunity to write about them in your profile, if they are an integral part of your life, etc. In my book, that should suffice, as far as minors are concerned.

A person who is so easily offended + has too many rules = biggest turn off.

Well, Physical attraction first. Attraction has to start somewhere.
Talk on the phone and go from there. That is how I did it when I was OLD.

Why would a person be bad if they are only in group pics? I mean, maybe that's because they don't do the selfie thing?

The others I agree with.
