I see some cities have a few sign up, some have 50, some have 100. It seems to vary. I can do a search to see how many people live in my area. Is it because people do NOT use the forums to know that there is such a thing as a POF Singles Mixer? Maybe they just make a profile and think that's it.
So what keeps you from going to a PlentyOfFish Singles Mixer? | |

| Why don't you go to POF Social Mixer Events? Posted: 11/22/2009 1:33:30 PM | | I generally find that the mixers aren't really for my age bracket. I mean, I've met some great people there, but they were generally on the other side of 40 from me. | |

Thats 4 different forums. If someone posts in any of the city forums, I'll probably miss it. But if you advertize in the gatherings forum, I may catch it. | |

| Why don't you go to POF Social Mixer Events? Posted: 11/22/2009 8:42:50 PM | I work 2nd shift on a Friday and that's about all they offer is Friday nights. I can only do summer or on a holiday if it fell on a Friday.
I am looking for more in south suburbs, NOT bar oriented. | |

If one was done somewhere south of oak lawn or close to the indiana border I'd probably go. | |

| Why don't you go to POF Social Mixer Events? Posted: 2/20/2010 6:27:52 AM | I plan 2 events a month. I post them on the website forums. The notices get sent to email boxes. The notices show up under your mail area where you see your Inbox when you check it. I put it on the bar's Facebook (If they have one) J.P. Kelly's is: http://www.facebook.com/?ref=home#!/profile.php?id=100000387662510&ref=ts I put the next event and link in my own profile as they come up.
I am not sure what else I can do...LOL.
I tell people to click on Forums----then USA Forums----then Illinois------the red text "Illinois Singles Events".........and there is a list of all the events in Illinois including the 2 a month I plan here in Springfield.
I am taking ideas on how to get the word out! | |

| Why don't you go to POF Social Mixer Events? Posted: 2/24/2010 5:43:09 PM | | Do you know if there are ever any events in Lake county or near the Wisconsin/Illinois border? I would love to go out this weekend but everything is sooooo far away! | |

| Why don't you go to POF Social Mixer Events? Posted: 2/26/2010 1:22:34 AM | POF Events are everywhere.
The Red text in the forums are called "illinois Singles Events". http://forums.plentyoffish.com/partythread39.aspx
If you do not see it in there and want something closer.....then click on "Create a Party" link. That is inside the "Illinois Singles Events". It should take you to.... http://forums.plentyoffish.com/AddPost.aspx?ForumID=39&party=1
If you host one..then it will be exactly in the best location you were looking for..LOL.
Actually---this is what many people do that do not see an event in the "illinois Singles Events" area that is close enough for them. | |

| Why don't you go to POF Social Mixer Events? Posted: 3/3/2010 6:12:48 AM | I don't see any mark. Where do you see it?
Never mind..
If you click on the icons to the right side of the postings...when you post a NEW one... you can add cartoon characters.
One of them is the exclamation mark. or you type : stop : which will get you the same effect.
You must have clicked on one of those animated characters.

| Why don't you go to POF Social Mixer Events? Posted: 6/12/2010 1:45:21 PM | I live and work in Springfield. I have yet to see a line-up of events to attend. There were a few last year. I did attend a couple, they seemed to consist of guys who were there to drink a lot, and gals who were there to drink a lot (at the expense of those guys) and maybe "hook -up". While I do my fair share of partying, that scene was not what I was looking to find. I can do that any night of the week. I am more looking to meet, converse and maybe connect. Is anybody up for that?
