On the subject of online dating attitudes, what do people think of those who put in their profiles "I haven't paid for a subscription so if you click you want to meet me, I can't see who you are. Message me instead."
you said you quit the website but just to clarify:
OKC made a change on Jan 1 2016 where anyone who clicks "like" on you, you can't see that if you're not a paying member.
I liked "the idea" of the "like" button, because I figure that made OKC more like Tinder, where at least if you knew they clicked "like" back on you, you had a pretty good chance of communication/date? Like shooting fish in barrel?
But naw - I looked at my stats of who responded, and it had little to do with any mutual like. OFTtimes you even msg someone who clicked "like" and they wouldn't respond at all, same behavior as a random profile. Website is crazy/useless/waste of time.
Online dating is 100% about looks. If you don't look like a masculine male model forget it.
I always get a good laugh when women say it's all about confidence...No, it's all about looks.
I did an experiment and set up a fake profile on a dating website for 2 weeks. I put up a pic of a model looking guy. Within hours I had several messages without doing anything....

You don't have to look like a male model, but yes, your pictures will determine whether I bother to even read your profile. It's shallow, but I can't see anyone going out of their way to date someone they are not attracted to.

BREAKING NEWS!! Looks are important. Conventionally attractive people get more interest than people who are not.
We all want to feel attracted to a (potential) partner. What's your point?

Thanks. This is what I was thinking of; I deleted my profile at the end of January.
With Tinder and OKC being owned by the same people, it makes sense that they'd be similar in some respects - only have to pay one programmer that way. I noticed that Tinder and the Quickmatch feature on OKC worked the same in that if I clicked/swiped "No" on someone, they would keep reappearing. If I finally clicked "yes" on them on both OKC and Tinder, they were always a match. It was driving me nuts on OKC that I was only getting a cycle of the same men via QM and couldn't figure out why those I said "no" to kept coming up - most notably a guy from Michigan when my settings were "local." I said "no" to that one at least 5 times.

LOL...I like men who are attractive to ME, but 99% of them aren't male model quality at all. Heck, the most recent guy who I met online and found really attractive would probably be considered average/plain by a lot of people.

The men I find most attractive tend to be "average" by most people's standards. On OKC, I found the average and above average more attractive than the "hot."
