Thanks but no thanks.



After quite a long time, the site has given me free gold Membership, as long as I followed the rules.

I have followed them to a T, now I've been informed that my gold Membership is no more.... that is unless I want to pay.

So.... if any of you nice people send me an email, I won't be able to read it. I will get around to setting up a place on my blog page where you'll still be able to send me a message..... that is.... if they don't take that away too.

 I refuse to renew gold as it is no value. You will find that they continue to chip away at what standard members can access. The latest resitriction is not seeing or even seeing larger than thumbnail size, a picture you would like to comment on

Just don't allow yourself to be blackmailed into thinking paying for gold is value for for money and find your best ways to get around them to keep in contat with your online friends here

If it was the same site as it was all those years ago, I might have been tempted, but it's been shite for years now.

I have made some lovely friends through here, but now all it seems to be is.. wanna fuck etc.

Been meaning to set up that private thingy on the blogs where standard and other members can send you messages. I've written down how to do it, just have to find it.

 I've seen a few single female profiles have their gold membership removed and I've never been clear on their reasoning why.

Perhaps the revenue is diminishing so much that they need to tap in on the female population?

Maybe it's just the beginning of the end of the site as a whole. Although they still seem adamant on making changes to it - they wouldn't be wasting funds making those kinds of changes if the site was going to close.

Seeing as how males far out number females, the thought used to be... give females free gold Membership to boost the male memberships.

I do think it's the beginning of the ends. The site used to be really good, even told a few of my friends about it, not any more.

All the changes had the members up in arms. They were never for the good of the site.

I should have known something was a miss when heaps of my blogs disappeared.

It's been in decline for a few years, easily 3 or 4 years of serious crap and decline. All that says is that I'm a sad loser for continuing to log on, despite there stil lbeing only a few blogger friends still worth posting on!

But it is a valid point- it says more about my desperation than the actual quality of the site, and the quslity of new women, given the sheer volume of bots/fakes/spammers that are constant deluge now x

Well, there needs to be some form of limited functionality, otherwise nobody can conect with one another, unless you paid and choose only to interact with others who have paid- though having gold doens't prove one has paid for the privilege

If gold members choose to msg standard/former gold members through PM then they go unread because tey are blurred out, which ruins the site experience for those gold members too. I would have thought that kind of scenario was blindingly obvious

Even when I was gold, there was hardly any of the old bloggers left, but I still hung in there.

Guess I'll continue popping in every day in the hope of a new blog being posted.

Thanks for popping in.

Too many changes, and too many emails from guys that didn't read my profile. So...I guess I won't miss the gold ball.

The IM has never worked as it should. Only used it a couple of times.... kept getting cut off, but you didn't know, so was waiting for a reply that never came.

If they change to having to be a gold member to blog, then I shall say my goodbyes.

Thank you lovely. <3

I will get around to the private message thing on my blog. Got some time off, so I'll find my instructions on how to do it.

They will probably change it to.. gold members only can blog. After all. they stole heaps of my blogs the other week. could this be a sign? lol

Nice to see you pop in.

Now I know what to do with all those 1000's of points I've collected over the years, that is if I've still got them. They did take away heaps of my blogs.

As I've said so many times, the site was great when I joined many years ago, but has been going downhill for a long time.

I've made some lovely friends all over the world through the blogs.

There's no way I'd pay to be a Gold member these days, too much crap going on.

Thought they wanted the females to stay, seeing as how the males far out number us.

I might have paid years ago when the site was fun, but not now.

I have more points than I know what to do with. Did read somewhere that points can be used to view profiles. Must have a look and find out how to do it, if someone of interest sends me an email.

I used to have fun with scammers.... play them along till they thought they had me, then I'd let them have it. lol

Only used the IM a few times, found it totally useless.

I'm pretty sure males and now females are leaving the site in droves.

 Hi There,
Family from Wentworth Falls originally so soft spot for there. Love to get to know a bit more about you. ...at this stage would enjoy the possibilities of a building friendship with someone nice and compatible.
