I have come across two profiles so far today that do not show the last time they were here. Is that a glitch or a way to make that hidden?

I think for the match section when we scroll down to see more of the profile to determine if yes, no or maybe seeing the last time they were here makes a difference.

I see several males that have pics of females - I find that very confusing and not sure why they are a match for me.

I really like the page with the icons to post on facebook. I might post one soon.

Welcome to the site. Best of luck indeed in your search.

I believe that if it doesn't show the last time they were here, they are in stealth mode..many people do that when they have been here a long time..cuts down on scammers and such.

Oh...and welcome to Mingle

I have been on this site a long time and if I don't see several photos and a history of posts I generally am warry of the person being a scammer or married. Pays not to get too excited until you have a better idea if they will be around. Not all scammers are illiterate and rude or gruesome looking. You are really an online "baby" until you get your hopes up only to have them dashed when someone charming is deactivated.

I am not a moderator; but they do a good job of trying to weed the "scammers " out as fast as possible. Until someone reports it can be hard to catch them so if anyone makes you even uncomfortable it is ok to report or block.

I strongly suggest follow all the "on line" tips posted so you save frusteration and have a great experience.

Sometimes you will see people put up pictures with friends so it may just mean they are social or don't want to go through the steps of photo shopping people out. Quite a few of the long time users do know each other also. It can kind of be an unspoken reference.

Some started out as single and have significant other relationships but now extend fellowship. Friends can be a viable way to be referred to someone great that is not on frequently. Use your own discretion.

Yes, as mentioned above, it is just a stealth feature. Some people like to browse privately and honestly I cannot blame them as for many, trying to write what you want or talk to who you want gets far too difficult when you are being pounced upon every couple of minutes.
