How would you suggest that be calculated? It seems to me that relying on a "compatibility percentage" takes a whole lot of mystery out of a potential relationship. Or are you joking, and I am mistakenly taking it seriously?

@citronella i totally agree with you. But, too many women do not respond with, "How ya doin?" They want a long missive of clear attractiveness. I got no time starting from scratch.

I have learned that knowing someone meets me at 80+% means we already have a reasonable foundation for conversation. Spending time scrolling through dozens of pages, testing those at 50% and below, is clearly a waste of time. Often no profile, not worked through the questions, or just not interesting to me. So, a "dating" site should provide searching on all the parameters available. This includes the percentage number calculated by whatever algorithm is used.

This is a man's perspective.

@Jacar or been talking with someone that they had us matched at 54% but we've been hitting it off. So who knows

@ashortbeauty I do not dismiss the possibilities. But i am here to filter the religionists. At OKC there are categories for religious ideas, so the algorithm can match those that are in opposition. But, those believers still get displayed.
To me, all filters should be at the users' control.

This is where I left the sort by % match [agnostic.com] - it only sorts all the members that you've seen in posts and search results.

@Admin Tell me what to do to get that result?

@Admin This link does an odd bait 'n switch thing... first it displays matches with the heart and Match %, but then when you click on that 99% it falls to 60-70-80% on the person's profile page.

@Admin I am at a loss as to how to recreate that page.
Why not just add a button at the top to sort by match %?
And to include everyone by default?\
Is there some sort of privacy issue you are concerned about?

I want to search for those within 100 miles, sorted by match %. Is this so wrong?

@Jacar I'm not done with the feature... it has a limitation to only show people who've been in pages that you've seen. It's a complicated query to generate with the current database schema.

@Admin Thank you for your response. It must be that the match % is done on the fly and is not saved. That makes for a lot of temp indexing.

I apologize for disturbing your sleep.

@Jacar No problem... I've been thinking more on how to generate the %s in the background. On the list...

@Admin why is there no response. It looks as if 5 others would also like to learn the answer.

@FrayedBear Is this happening now? I've not seen this issue you mention.

@Admin please save photo then delete and reply that you have received it. Thanks. - I've got dozens of them.

Thanks - typo fixed.
