Now if they would just banish users who take pictures in bathrooms that are photo-bombed by the big toilet or urinal in the background... THEN we would be making some headway!

I've been offered good pricing on Match.
I was gonna sign up, and try again....(boo hoo).
So I took a few selfies....and I did not like any of them. So I didn't sign up.

And yes, my photos on Agnostic are getting dated ....maybe 4 years old by now. IDK.. TIme for new , I mean old ones...

I have lots of old photos on here, and on dating profiles. I put dates on them. Open book, me.

my main photo here is how i look every morning before coffee and cocaine.

Good. I hate it when I see Instagram filters on dating sites. Like, what are you doing moron? Covering up your face is not helping you sell yourself.

I prefer to be brutally honest, but then again, I'm not searching desperately.
My wife might be, ........

Are these people so desperate that they have to resort to deception?

People lie and deceive?

There are some filters being used now that appear to wash out wrinkles, but the photos are almost blurred/fuzzy looking. I despise dishonesty. I think that's a small reason that I put hardly any effort into dating these days.

PoF is a cesspool.
I'm rather shocked that they'd do anything to improve honesty on that site.

Unfortunately , you're both right . It's wrong to lie about your age and post old photos or photos of others , to deceive people , and it's also true , that everyone , no matter what their own appearance is , will only contact the very attractive people , no matter what the rest of their bio. includes . Basically , if you're old , unattractive looking , or fat , no one is going to contact you , and if you contact them , they will brush you off as soon as possible ,

I thought about making youtube videos of my pof experiences. Maybe a series called " Player, please."
I have a long set of rules on my disabled profile including:

1.) Keep moving if you want to get intimate before knowing my last name let alone my first name.
2.) Please have a valid drivers license and no crimes preventing you from driving.
3.) Please have a reliable source of income. I can't be your employer.
4.) Please have a recent picture of you. I will google image your photo.
5.)I will do a background check on you.
6.) I am a liberal agnostic. That is not open to negotiation and we can talk about something else if it is a problem.
7.) I can't re-locate.

This is all I gotta say about that.

Lying, inaccurate photos and the like are an immediate deal killer. At least you find out right away.

Stupidw

I cannot begin to fathom why people put those ridiculous bunny/kitten ears and noses on their photos - just makes me move to the next profile.

I am writing a book called, Taking Selfies for Dummies. Well, thinking of anyway. Point is is that many of the pictures are bad or unflattering to the person. I see a lot of women who look sad, frumpy, grumpy, mad, or slightly out of it. I have a female friend who has shown me pictures of men who pose with a. fish b. dead deer c. motorcycles d. shirtless e. holding a beer can d. looking crosseyed at the camera like they are drunk (probably are) e. sitting at a computer with an ashtray overflowing with cigarette butts. I could go on but it is obvious that many men and women have no idea how they look in the pictures. And yes, women post pictures showing them to be much younger than their age just like the men.
