i was just sent a message by a very pretty girl from alabama, she was a bot from mate.com, whats going on mingle2?

What's a 'bot"?

Just like any other site even though we strive very hard to eliminate the scammers some still are able to get by. The site has updated their system due to scammers. Please help us out by using the Abuse Report System we have in place for the members... At the bottom of each e-mail is a button that says Report this Member just click on it and follow the directions. By doing this Admin will receive your report directly which will be checked out and all scammers will be dealt with.

Hope this helps.....

Isn't that a bottom feeder?

huh...I don't know.

I thought a bottom feeder was a prawn.

Hi william525,

Please report that profile, by clicking the "report this user" link, or email me with the user name. (please do not post it on the boards) I'll be happy to look into it.

Thanks,

Mark...what's a 'bot'

I really don't know...

Hi Lori (me thinks that's right) I think a lot of folks are confused about the term "Bot" I think some folks get that confused with scammers.

A true "bot" Is an automated profile, which has a program associated with it. These are typically seen in chat rooms, where admins have no time to effectively control the environment. There are no "bots" on Mingle2. We do have our share of scammers, (as does any free site) However, we do eliminate them as soon as we spot them. Members are a big help here, and it is greatly appreciated.

cool, ok..I really didn't know.

Yeah, it's Lori

Thanks
