A poll for standard members about the IM change

the more i listen n read....i think the male profiles get charged either way. Th females....so far.....only get points deducted IF they initiate the IM. The IM has been tempermental for eons.....the site has done nothing.

There are others here that also feel that gold is the only way to go...and they spout off that opinion every chance they get. I, at one point, thought they worked for the site , trying to drum up more paying members. Many stories of the site making unauthorized charges on ones credit card. I would only giv them a pre paid and zero balanced after card. Especially since the gold member features/access are spotty..at best.

I have been told that the only free gold nowadays is thru making an Ice Breaker. A few people in the past week have received gold for that.

Its becoming more n more of an elitist environment....its already heavily male laden. Once they chisel the standards down to nothing, they will be recycling all gold members. An ual cesspool in the making, IMHO~~

10 points to use IM is too much especially when most times it doesn't go thru. I am also on Alt and they are charging only 1 point and USUALLY it at least goes thru

It‘s a shame about the lost of these 3 free IM…TSmeet is going to loose money again I guess…no one will pay for that !

Even when Standard members got 3 free per day, I never, ever had a reply to my sent IM. So I'm not missing much. Also the only emails I get is from TSmeet trying to get me to go Gold. I'm not surprised, since we live in a monetary society and nothing is free except the gimmicks.

seems that any points you might earn get taken one way or another.

Before they start putting all the restrictions and rules on the IM function, why don't they FIX the damned thing first!!! I'm a gold member and cant answer IMs. And I doubt people see mine either.

Never been a gold member , this im charge is ridiculous. Messages charged for even though not read . Crashes during chats and have to pay more to carry on. This site is getting to be a money grabbing one

New policy sucks. Also use together points for writing a story. Why is that gone?

I use to have an TSmeet and ALT membership and ALT SUCKS cause its not that many so you are forced here. For the standard member after you have filled out your profile and even confirmed ID its a race to meet all the other criteria to keep this thing free.

TSmeet has wanted to limit the bandwith used by std members for a long time. They've been making little cutbacks to the service allowed for std members for years.

obviously there goal is to get more people to pay for there service, but as for me, I think membership fee is a bit too high. especially considering that the service is subpar. the apps on this site are very fickle and in a lot of cases inoperative, I was a paying member several years ago and opted out of continuing to pay due to lack of reliability. in reality they would make more, if they lowered prices and fixed the site to work properly

Personally I hate receiving IM chats from standard members who cant even see who I am or what I am looking for.I come online and before I have a chance to switch my IM to busy I get IM chats coming in.In my profile I have stated that I am not here to receive IM chats.I am not sitting here waiting for them ,I like messages sent the regular way so I can answer them when I feel like it not have to answer immediately. Usually IM chatters are just masturbating and want to get off.I am not looking for that.


FresnoWoman replies on 7/24/2019 12:48 pm:
As a standard member, I can see the first sentence and part of the second sentence if I hover over your picture. You could put the "no IMs, email only" part there if you wanted. That said, I've gotten too many IMs or emails from gold male members who are married, even though they could have read my profile to learn I want single men only.

However, I think a way to filter the IMs you receive would be a much better feature. If you could set your preferences for who can view or IM you by age, location, sex, standard vs. gold, etc., I think it would really cut down on the unwanted messages that female and trans members get. Some people will lie and fill out their profiles erroneously but such a filtering feature would help.

Standard member here. It is what it is. I will never provide them with my credit card info. Not worth the risk. I can still read blogs and stories on occasion.

If i try to IM a female its rare they even reply back. I dont know if its me or IM dont work. Either way you lose points. Then if you try to contact them later it cost you 10 more points which sux.


FresnoWoman replies on 7/24/2019 12:49 pm:
They might be swamped with IMs already, you might not be the age they want, or some other reason. They could at least make it so you don't lose the points unless you get a response, but I doubt they will implement that.

    Quoting Tmptrzz:
    I am not a standard member, and this is straight up BS and they need to give back free IM's and email. This site is going to down hill each and every day!! It's all about the all mighty dollar for them. I am always trying to help out standard members who need points..I hope your staying cool hun and enjoying a peaceful Sunday..
I have NEVER had free mail.. every message, INCLUDING ones from the site, used to cost $1.95 or so if I wanted to read, which I did not. So, MOST of the mail I got went right to the discard bin.

However, that ONE person who emailed me.. I really regret not getting back with them

Well, they baited the line, now let’s see how many sign up for full membership, my experience here has been 0, most are trolls and not serious about meeting let alone chatting, unless Western union is involved

Yes, I've noticed that I had to pay 10 points to respond to an incoming im earlier in the morning. It sucks for the rest of the standard members since they have another restriction for this site which is only going to drive a good majority of them away rather than making extra money. In my opinion this is just going to hurt everyone else and the site itself in the long run but what do I know?

    Quoting redrockrascal:
    VERY good point PCG. Since the IM changed happened I've been watching my searches, women only within AZ, and it looks like both gold and standard ones are less active then they seem to have been.

    With less people male/female, gold/not gold, those here will have less choices therefore less possibilities of interacting. Interacting, in various ways, is th only thing dating sites have to offer.

    Far as the OP's question goes, I have only looked once at IM since the change. I did not see where I could use points to contact someone. Is that actually still possible and, if so, how?
You just type your message as usual and a box comes up saying it will cost 10 points to send and you have to click on the box agreeing to it. No guarantee it will reach a valid recipient because you know how this site works.

    I think now there is a question?? Does the originator of the IM pay ? The recipient ? Or do both have to share in this expense??
Like cell phones and pretty much anywhere else both ends get charged.


FresnoWoman replies on 7/25/2019 10:51 pm:
I don't get charged to answer IMs. I think for now, women can still answer for free.
