A poll for standard members about the IM change
A poll for standard members about the IM change |
||||
|
Repeating the text in case words get deleted from the post: So we know that standards no longer get 3 free IMs a day to send, and now you have to spend points to send. However do you spend/lose points if you receive IMs? IF and only if you're a Standard member, please vote. There is one option for Golds who want to vote but really, this isn't your circus.

I'm not sure they realize...and I'm sure they don't care....just how many standard members there are on this site. Eliminating them will have a negative impact on the paying members as well.

With less people male/female, gold/not gold, those here will have less choices therefore less possibilities of interacting. Interacting, in various ways, is th only thing dating sites have to offer. Far as the OP's question goes, I have only looked once at IM since the change. I did not see where I could use points to contact someone. Is that actually still possible and, if so, how? When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro. The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.

By charging points they will eliminate a lot of FAKE PROFILES and SCAMMERS most of the fake profiles are standard members
| |||
|
I lose points if I send the IM or receive the IM.
| |||
|
I haven't had an IM since the site changes so don't know if I lose any points or not. However, I used to report those members who would send their email address in an IM and I'd have to click Reply so I could copy the message I was sent and paste it into the online report and then close the IM. And because I'd clicked on Reply, I'd lose one of my three points. Even though I hadn't actually replied.

I think now there is a question?? Does the originator of the IM pay ? The recipient ? Or do both have to share in this expense?? Stop by at lonlyforlove2 also see Lunch with Lonly , we get snow tomorrow Check my blog on New Community, "A photo of my big Pecker" also, " My Sunday afternoon with the kids'

I am not a standard member, and this is straight up BS and they need to give back free IM's and email. This site is going to down hill each and every day!! It's all about the all mighty dollar for them. I am always trying to help out standard members who need points..I hope your staying cool hun and enjoying a peaceful Sunday..
| |||
|
you know what else is annoying... I can read emails from guys but never from women unless it is the 1st 4 or 5 words. Great!
| |||
|
It used to be vital to read someone's profile and now it's more important to be able to chat to those who can't read them? Using more than all the road!

Even though I was a former Gold member, I'm currently standard, which doesn't make me tight, despite the stupidity of tartwiffaheart and moronic observation- and we don't know if she's one of the many many many women who were given free gold status on the back of paying male members Yes, we lose points now if we answer an IM, and have done for days, so not effective from 20/7/19 as the site claims. The points are lost even if person we msg or reply to is offline or ieven if msg is unread or just in sent status. I have even been deducted points for a follow up msg to same woman later on despite it in effect being part of the same 'chat' There are plenty of similar mind to tart who only thnk Gold members are worth engagin with, though no doubt plenty of Gold members are total morons, as no doubt many of you can testify This does have an impact on gold members being able to interact with all members on the site and devalues their membership, but, there are plenty of points like this that can be made that are way beyond the capacity of some idiots to comprehend

they're obviously trying to make changes to the site in order to stay competitive with stuff like tinder or whatever, but this seems like it will in the long run drive people away. if there's only 5 gold members left in one city and they can't talk to anyone else why would they keep paying for it? i suspect the whole thing will fold sooner or later. If you want to contact me send me a message on my postbox blog: My Postbox

I would consider paying, but the site itself doesn't appear to be a stable platform and their functions seem to work sometimes or are buggy. It's a tough call.

Totally bullshit
| |||
|
It sucks but since not paying i cant complain.
| |||
|
As a gold member, it's a joke. A lot of people sign up to see if there's anyone local and once they can't interact at all, they're going to move on. Having a limited number of free contacts per day would go a long way to encouraging people to become paying members, even going back to the old tiered membership structure with a cheaper, somewhat limited option.... Just my two cents
| |||

Yeah you do lose them either way. I wouldn’t have a problem with the change if the messenger worked everyone but it sucks when you waste time getting points and it doesn’t work. Plus getting charged 10 points when they don’t respond is kind of bs.
