Who thinks this site breaks our human rights to delete all our personal details when we chose? (Not just de-activate and keep your personal info without consent)

Doesn't work...they keep sending emails from this site...how can someone mutual match with a blue photo and a blank profile...but it does...makes the whole site a huge joke in my opinion

You can't criticize the rules or the moderators decisions, beware you'll get spank.

I always sit back and wonder when I see a thread like this. Did you read ALL the fine print before you agreed to the terms of use. If not then well that is your fault.
One of the things that is on most dating sites what you put out here they own and can use as advertisements or how they wish.
So my advice is to READ before you join a site if you don't like the terms of use then DON'T join.
How simple can it be.

Humm maybe if all went back and read this thread she started around the same time as this one her answers would have been answered.

There are many sites that do the same thing as this one does as far as deactivating it is not that big of a deal very easy to do.

But as most do they say they are leaving but in fact within a matter of days and sometimes hours they are back posting on the site.

Therefore the way this site has one deactivate instead is actually a plus for the members. If in fact they do everything that is needed before deactivating you will never receive any mail from the site after you have correctly done what you are suppose to before deactivating.bigsmile

Ohh and I will add there is nothing that keeps you from deleting all your personal information that you in fact have put on your profile. Again that is something each member has access to and must delete on their own.

well just to burst the bubble a little more, anything you've typed or said on the internet is kept and includeing emails, pics, exceterra one only need know the site to look up the history of anyone thats ever been on the net. Once you've entered this domain its a free for all, and you give up any privacy you once thought existed.
