Why the hell does my profile content keep disappearing?

My headline and the stuff in the two main boxes (About Me Description, and the First Date Description) Are always blank whe nI log back in later.

My Interests box and other specs remain untouched, as they were.

I DO NOT include personal contact info, lewd words or images, or anything else that might be considered inappropriate content.

I am getting sick of having to repost the content (good thing I save everything in Notepad files) over and over and over.

You have this in your profile:

1991-1999

The automatic filters think it's a phone number. Remove it or write it differently and you shouldn't have a problem with your profile disappearing anymore.

I wanted to use some kind of bullets, but the Alt+0149 bullet wasn't showing up (along with dozens of other Alt+code characters). The Alt+0164 symbol (whatever it is) is one of the few that worked.

Thanks for the links - I will keep them in mind for future use.

By using the bullets in your interests list you make all your interests unsearchable. It still lets people know what your interests are if they visit your profile, but if you got rid of them people who search for those particular interests will be able to find you as well.

Hello,

I am also having the same problem as the gentleman below. What is in my profile that is the problem?
(could it be "Africa or Tanzania"?)
thanks.

The content is gone again, so I can't guess what's making it disappear. If you've got a reference to Africa, that may be it. Easiest way to find out is to remove that and see if it fixes the problem.

If that's not the culprit, try posting your profile a bit at a time. If one bit stays, put in another one, and so on until something triggers the delete. That will narrow down exactly where the problem is.

Both, along with just about every other Country in Africa is a restricted Term/Phrase to combat Scammers.

LOOKING FOR:
-ideally you don't smoke (as it is my biggest turnoff, espeicailly when kissing is invloved) but i'll survive
-Am looking to date someone, something a little serious possibly, but not necessairly (all depends)
-Should be relaxed, fun and easy going but we can have intelligent conversation as well.
- You like new things (life in general) as I am spontaneous and love photography/ travelling, extreme sports.
- Don't particularly like overly talkative women, women that are clingy/needy. I like women who can be independent without me all the time (includes having me to call every single day). I will treat you to dinner etc once in a while and little gifts here and there but don't expect me to be your Suga Daddy

FIRST DATE:

I am pretty easy going..it could be a coffee or a drink, maybe something active like biking or skiing (I am a snowboarder) or a walk somewhere quiet. Maybe meet up with others in a group situation (eg. watch the Leafs )..really anything that both of us can be comfortable and have time to chat.

I am fairly certain these are blocked:
  • Thailand
  • Estonia
  • Russia
  • Africa
  • Dubai
  • India


  • These may be iffy:



  • Gold
  • Singapore
  • Peru
  • Malaysia
  • Cuba
  • South America


  • Sometimes its not just 1 Word, but it may
    take a Combination of Keywords to get
    the Filter to trip.

    Hey,

    wasn't sure what you meant here..:

    "please remove all the verboten words, then hie yourself to the profile review forum. "

    did you mean remove all unnecessary works and go to the "profile review forum and post my profile?

    Looks like your Bullets are gone now ...

    Best at this point to follow Ms Taken's Recommendation in Msg: 8 ...

    Start out with the least amount Characters possible, just a Tad over 160. If that wont take, I'd say there is a good chance something within the Text is not going through.

    Should that be the case, then try again, but this Time using only Letters of common Words, meaning (No Symbols, Numbers, Punctuation, Special Characters, etc.) as a Test. That means Letters A - Z and nothing else.

    No Countries, Cities or the Name of other Places, meaning no Ontario, Cuba, Algonquin, etc. ... No Names of anything at all !!!

    If the first bit of Text takes, add on as indicated by Ms Taken's. Somewhere along the Line the Rabbit has got to fall out of the Hat.

    If it won't take after that, then we'll get drastic and fix it via E-Mail.

    Taken from, and applicable to Profiles ...

    One thing that will be getting it deleted for sure is this:

    2001-2004

    Exactly the same problem the first fellow in this thread had. See Msg 2. Try removing or rewording that, along with the suspect country names, and see if that's enough to fix the problem.
