Just wondering like every site i incounted there is nothing there.Meaning no messages no friends no nothing sure people add u as a friend but do they realy want to be your friend?Or is it just another site to see who has the most friends like myspace,twitter,tagged.

I been on this site for some time and have to say this site very booring maybe thats why i been staying off this site lol But to be honest Do it realy make you wonder is this site like some it becomes free for a while then if you want more you have to pay?I rember tagged used to have chat box's and used to offer stuff that changed.plentyoffish i got out left they changed it they dont have any forums.But now if u want more you have to pay but yet it says thease sites are free.See nothings free this is how thease sites get you.

Some site you have pay a year or so to become pro whatever happend free lol. I realy dont know if iam making any sense but like many sites i have been on it feels as waste of time and no im not asking for a pitty party.

For what it's worth would be nice for once to find a site to have some kind of contacts friends family etc to say hi keep incontact on myspace it became all spam mail and crap that site failed i think my yearbook spam there now. Just figure i ask how others feel are you realy getting anything out of thease sites?

Never been anywhere but Mingle2.
Which, I find, rocks.
It is more about friends and socializing.
Wonderful forums.
Love can find you anywhere :-)

You get out of it just what you put into it.

It is perfectly possible to use this site and never pay a penny!! We added a few extra features that you can purchase, but really, you can enjoy it without ever having to do so.

If you're looking for a partner, it IS nice being able to jump to the front of the search, but people make matches every day without ever stepping to the MinglePlus.

We were trying to add value to those that wished for such options.

I've been here forever, and I love it here.

A friend once told me, "Ted, if you're bored... amoungst all the other possible scenarios... it might be that you're boring.
Not a personal slight to me... nor do I mean it in that way to you.

But shake it up a little bit... change a little somethin'.
Mingle... or any other venue in your life is going to be, in part, what you make of it... the attitude you bring.
Make your own happiness in life... nobody else is responsible for doing that... and if whatever you're doing, or not doing... isn't getting you what you want... try something different.

You can meet people on any site, I have been on several others and have met people. I do like the people I've met here most of all though.

It's not going to happen over night or anything, you're chatting with the whole world, not just a few locals at the bar.

I think if you want to keep in touch with family. You and your family should join facebook.

I have met people from online before. Great people, love them.

Just have a little more faith in hope! happy

Plenty of really cool people on this site bro. I have made lots of good friends and found a real woman who I adore here. + I have actually met quite a few people from here and they are a hoot.

Mingle2 was never meant to be a pay site. I'm sure some of the other sites you mentioned, didn't plan to be pay sites.

During the past couple of years, the economic downturn has forced website owners to find other avenues of generating revenue. Simply put, the revenue generated by advertisements can no longer fully support these websites.

I think Mingle2 settled on the best compromise, in order to keep the site free, at least for the most part. Also, the cost of premium membership is quite low, compared to other websites.

The basic site functions are still free, and as Lori pointed out, you can still enjoy the site, free of charge.

I love mingle and the people.. I have found my man, and made some great friends,
and for me, even if i had to pay a small amount to stay on, who cares, Everything costs money and I dont expect things for free if its costing the peole to run it..
Thats life, you get out what you put in..
so come on here and enjoy it, meet the people and make some friends..

Not a personal slight to me... nor do I mean it in that way to you.


LMAO! That's just what I tell my kids!

Good advice tho, Ted. Mix it up, get on the boards, participate ... you'll meet plenty of people and make friends.
