My understanding of ad sites is they get paid for unique hits on their ads. So not logging in means no hits on thier advertisers, purpusefully or accidentally. Between the blackberry and laptop i probably accidentally click an ad almost daily.
Though like stated the viewed me is now down for service so maybe a recant is already in the works. | |

The cost of one or two dates alone would get you an upgrade on POF.
You guys kill me. There's no free lunch on the internet. Everything that you see on here costs money. Ads won't cover it alone.
Good grief! Hi scores must be a friend of the jackazz that owns this site..10 million dollars in PROFITS and ads don't cover the cost of operating the site...those ads made him a millionaire..think its time to pull the plug on this pond for me..the shark that owns it is getting a little too hungry for me. I think everyone should cut and paste his opening statement about it being a free site and send it to his mail box here and keep sending it till he gets the message | |

Charge £80 uk for a feature...because they can..and a stock market floatation may be on the cards like Facebook, its worth hundreds of millions for personal information, and everyone has their price..£100 million anyone.... | |

The only redeeming quality this site offers is that it is (or was) free, which in turn leads to more users. Take that away and POF becomes the bottom of the barrel.
Hell, even the other "free" sites are much better. The only reason I use this site is because there are more people on here in my area.
If you were going to pay to use a dating website, you'd be a fool to pay for POF when the others are far superior. | |

| Viewed Me Now a Paid Feature: Please post comments here Posted: 3/13/2012 3:15:22 PM | It's sad how many people POF will be leaving POF based on the fact that VIEWED ME is now a paid feature. I think it was bound to happen so I'm not too shocked by it. Don't waste your money by paying for Match, Harmony or Chemistry. I've been on all of them and this was beats them all. Yes, POF is not perfect, but neither is other paying sites Trust me POF will be better because of this move
POF: $35.00 for 3 months!
Match: $39.00 for 1 month!
Chemistry: $49.00 for 1 month!
Harmony: $69.00 a month!
It's time to make this site better in my opinion. I'm not pleased with move, but I expected it to happen. If you're serious about dating and you like this site enough, you will pay. | |

Off to (wont display name "OKcxpxd") 100% free, more features, profiles don't show up all over google! and most of all I like being able to hide people I'm not interested in from continually showing up in my searches | |

That's not really a fair assessment of POF vs. any of those sites. They have better features for paid members than POF, have much better M:F ratios in general, they function more reliably than POF, and a whole host of other things already mentioned in these posts.
For me the issue is similar to many others point of view. Come up with additional things for paid members instead of hijacking features that have been provided free for so long. Further limiting what people can do is not likely to encourage established members to switch to paid accounts. It encourages them to leave because it shows a disregard for those who have been on the site for extended periods of time. For the record I found the viewed me section useful after they took out the ability to see if your message was read. | |
