Pretty much the bottom of the barrel of dating sites. If "quality" is important, stick with top dating sites like Perfect Match or eHarmony.

I too have been a member three different times in 18 months. Finally this last time i have decided that alot of these men are full of hot air and probably don't know what they want, and i agree with one of these other blogs, in the respect of photos having to be used and can only be head shots. I think there is too much emphasis on looks myself.

I've been a member of POF for several months. The site's major problem seems to be the egotistical forum moderators who pick and choose who to ban from posting, ranging from a few days to a permanent ban. Any email to them that is returned is laced with superiority and "I'm a God" type language.
Rules are not enforced equally in the profiles either. People reported for not having a picture of themselves may or may not be deleted, depending on the whim of the owner and his moderators.
There's a member named darkeyedjoker who is a fake, quite probably placed as eye candy bait. He's been reported numerous times by numerous users and remains a member. He presents an attractive picture and profile, and his city changes by the hour or day...sometimes several times in one day.
Users who attempt to get in under the filters (a very nice option in my opinion) by saying they are looking for long term, but stating in their profile description that they are looking for a piece of ass, are not deleted, even though they are violating the rules of the site.
Many of the girls and guys are just there to be voted a 10 and end up on the top 500 beautiful people list. The owner could care less. A young girl in a thong gets his site lots of hits afterall. This is going to end up nothing but a porn addict site. Too bad.

I met several guys from POF. 2 really nice ones. 1 that I am still friends with. Its sad, but the others. All just want a booty call. It should be called " plenty of booty".
They say they want LTR but its all about them, or sex, then they think they can call of come over any time they want, and all on their terms. then make excuses like... Im looking for more.. or something better, or you are too emotional, or some load of shit! well guys, guess what.. women ARE emotional.. get over that! its how we are wired! Dont use cliches like _ "its not you- its me" bullsh*! Dont say you are something when you are not. yes, people, I have used POF for about 5 months, and nothing has brought me happiness. Guess I will have to pay for quality.. thats a sad fact!
