Lots of people, guys and girls, recommend Plenty of Fish online dating (which I dub Plenty-Of-Flesh) because it’s free. I’ve been a member there twice now, and I haven’t been impressed either time.
The site places a lot of emphasis on photos, which has led to people judging one another not by their messages, but solely by looks. I’m not impressed with the forum moderator either, who has a firm yet obnoxious and stuck-up attitude to posts that raise questionable suggestions issues, even with the site.
Many of the people there have been rude and/or full of hot air, both in the forums and through messaging. Even the friendliest of messages went ignored - the sent messages list proved extremely helpful in finding out just where they were going.
Plenty of Fish advertises itself as a dating site, which is my biggest disappointment: the only people who’d enjoy Plenty of Fish are the average loud, outgoing people who already have “great” lives and have no intention of being serious.
As with most other places I’d suggest someone experience it for themselves, if only for them to reach their own conclusion. I’ve had much better results with Match and Perfect Match.
Hi, I've been a matchmaker for many years and have experience with just about every dating site out there. I have thoroughly reviewed and rated the best
calling some one ugly is juvenile . People are honestly here to meet someone and it never fails there is always someone with an ignorant remark because they think its funny. this is not high school its grown life and if your so childish as to make comments like that maybe its YOU who are the ugly one and you are just lashing out at everyone because you know it. and its pretty sad that the moderator of this site would even POST those kinds of remarks.
Ive been on POF a couple of times now and the first time seemed more of a waste of time than anything. The people that responded where,to say the least, NOT what I was looking for. Most had photos that were years out of date and a few just simply wanted nasty pictures and werent at all interested in meeting. Quite a few rude people on here who feel it necessary to respond to every single ad on here and spew ignorant remarks where none were asked for. I gave it a break for a while and came back to POF with a better sense of what replies I MIGHT get. This time has been pretty cool. The replies have been great and the people have actually been real. While its easy to get discouraged maybe sometimes it just takes pulling a few weeds to get to the flowers( no mushiness intended..LOL).best way I can tell someone is to let them come to you that way you know in someway that there IS an interest.and you can figure out from there if they are for real or some 400 pound dirty old pervert just looking for a time wasting thrill off of someone.
i thought i was the only one,,,pof is prejudice, and very rude,,,to any race other than white,,,,i,ll never get on there again…
