Posted: 1/1/2012 5:50:24 PM | | I've had this account for awhile and every time I try to use "Meet Me" it says that there are no users. I have a buddy who has a pof account also and his "Meet Me" works just fine and he has plenty of users to choose from, is there something wrong with my account or is this a technical error, or is my profile so unique that pof just hasn't found any users for me to meet yet? | |

Ive received 2 emails lately from this feature supposedly and i went to click on the person's profile and it wasn't there at all??? What's up with that not once but twice??
That would be because they have their profile hidden.
Make sure you are logged into the dating side and then copy and past the URL* from the POF email into your browser and they should come up.
Just below this:
******* wants to meet you! Click below to view ******** profile:
You will see the URL I am talking about. | |

Posted: 1/18/2012 1:57:56 AM | PLEASE, please, please add a remove, or 'undo' option for meet me.
E.G.
I clicked yes/maybe to add someone.
Turns out I *actually* know them (in a group of friends outside pof), and feel a bit embarrassed now, as I would like to change my answer to meetme on pof.
Without an undo, it is my understanding that I will show up as recently logged in every time she checks meetme/viewme...
Please reconsider adding this option.
Thank you!

Posted: 1/29/2012 12:06:23 PM | I don't lie meet me feature it's a waste of time, you end up wasting your time sending them a message because when they see your photo they never bothered to view your actual profile. It defeats the purpose it was intending to do.
I would imagine it's liken to standing in a bar, and mentally deciding whether who they would date based on their looks. It serves no purpose for me, and can be embarrassing when you get no response. | |

why have a SUGGESTIONS section, if you're not taking SUGGESTIONS?!
they don't want suggestions. normally "FAQ"s aren't places to even LEAVE suggestions, so this particular thread can be easily missed/unread (hear that, mod? FAQs usually just have "instructions" or answers to common questions).
but, as you've noticed, they don't want to change anything about this feature, no matter how many are unhappy about it.
it is their responsibility to have a message that tells people who are looking at the MEET ME section that a message will be sent to the person if they hit YES, MAYBE, or even sometimes when they hit nothing at all! (who on earth would think they'd sent an email to someone after you said "MAYBE"??!! completely idiotic) if you make a mistake, well that's just tough. they don't care. there's no reason to undo it, delete people off the list, or anything else.
completely useless, totally annoying. | |

Posted: 2/18/2012 7:26:13 AM | THANK YOU... MY POINT
I do not want to receive "soandso wants to meet you" emails.
If they want to meet me, send me a message.
If they are too lazy - as referred to in a reply to this thread somewhere- to send a message, I don't want to "meet"- for crying out loud, make an effort. | |

Posted: 2/18/2012 7:28:39 AM | | If one is too lazy with sending a real message, then look at the PROFILE before you reply yes or maybe.... then YOU check the milage distance before deciding to want to meet. | |

Posted: 2/18/2012 7:32:40 AM | Shy or lazy--- why are they here? I will look into the
A suggestion would be to keep all the meet me requests in a separate email folder set up through the suggested email filter above.
and call it POF JUNK.
Thank you. | |

Posted: 2/24/2012 1:56:04 AM | Thank god I did a bit of research before taking any action on those 'meet me' emails. Seems like the sytem is broken and doesn't seem like POF is doing anything about it. It's pretty sh'tty enough trying to find a relationship but to have this 'meet me' confusion and mess added doesn't help. POF needs to clarify what the feature is and how it works before letting people play this stupid game. Seems like quite a few members have been the end of rude email due to this confusion and silliness. POF...take you finger out and fix it. In fact it shouldn't be called Meet Me, I think it should be 'Interested, May Be and No'. The 'instructions' to the game should be explained beforehand and I think this is how it should work to avoid unecessary confusion:
1. If you are Interested, an email will be sent to the recipient to notify that you are interested in them and NOT jusst playing some sort of stupid game.
If it's Maybe, then the recipent will be placed in your Favourites folder for later.
If it's No then nothing will happen.
2. By clicking Interested, the profile page will pop up where the person clicking should read the profile to decide wether they are interested or not, at this point they are given a prompt 'Are you still Interested'. If they click 'YES', then an email will be sent, the person clicking will also be sent an email to their InBox to remind them that they said they were interested in such and such a person and to avoid any confusion when they recieve a seemingly random email.
3. The person who recieves the 'Interested' email can obviously view the other person's profile and decide what to do. If they decide Yes they are also interested, they can reply to a link. This link will send the reply to the same email that the sender has and thus creates a conversation history (again to avoid any unessary confusion).
This seems like a lot more fool proof. | |

| Doesnt make sense.
Posted: 2/29/2012 10:07:26 AM | | I've been using this Meet Me feature on my cellphone like a gam, going through hundreds of pictures rapidly clicking yes if there was anything interesting about it. I think thats a lot more fun and useful that way. The emails are useless (I'm not even looking at dating site email notifications. I wish tje meetme feature had a history so I could find these people again. It should be changed totally to become a speed dating game, like a subway ride where you scan all the faces quickly and send a wink if someone apoeals to you. | |

| Doesnt make sense.
Posted: 3/2/2012 6:32:28 AM | | I like to think I'm using the feature correctly. If I see someone I might be interested in, I always open their profile in a new tab to read it. I never click "yes" or "maybe" without reading the profile first. Problem is, it always gives me people at least an hour away. I still click "yes" or "maybe", if I like them, because I'm led to believe that it will help POF find matches for me. I'm not just racing through, judging pics, I'm actually using it to select people I wouldn't mind meeting. Isn't that how it's supposed to work? | |

| JUST IGNORE IT.
Posted: 3/26/2012 1:59:55 PM | This is what I found to be the simple fix. Ignore it. I hate to ignore anyone. But with this useless feature you just about have to. I've gotten so many 'wants to meet you" notifications it ain't funny. 99% of the ones I get have never looked at my profile. When I see they haven't looked at my profile I write it off and move on. Because I know by past experience if I do write the person they will ignore my message. If they don't take the time to look at your profile at all, Ignore the notification. They really are not interested.
They are doing like most people on the internet do. Playing and clicking on whatever they see. | |

Posted: 4/5/2012 2:27:41 PM | Please make it an option to change or delete people off our own Meet Me lists.
There are guys I selected yes to that I don't care to even look at anymore because they're such ***holes on their profiles. Don't even want to give them the pleasure of knowing I saw their page at all. Tools. | |

| Worthless
Posted: 4/6/2012 1:10:59 AM | The 'Meet Me' feature is worthless as far as I'm concerned.
Why do women click 'yes' then not respond to messages?
They may as well call me and hang up or ring my doorbell and run away.
We should have a 'Leave a flaming bag of poo at their door' feature. | |

Posted: 5/11/2012 8:43:27 AM | I hope in the future something can be done to recode the meet me "Maybe" feature.
I did not know a "maybe" selection would generate an "I want to meet you" message.
It would be awesome to just add a "skip" selection so all the "maybe" people don't mistakenly think we want to meet. That way a person would still be able to be viewed down the road.
I never selected "Yes" for anyone. However many men now think I want to meet them.
or just allow a user to say "Maybe" without generating and "I want to meet you" message? possible?
Thank you. | |
|
| Worthless
Posted: 5/11/2012 8:46:03 AM | I think because clicking Maybe generates an I want to meet you exactly the same as a Yes does.
The site needs to fix this. | |
