Can I change my user name?
Once an account has been created, it is not possible to change its user name. So, in order to get a new user name, you will have to register again. Since we only allow one Mingle2 account per email address, you'll have to use another email address to create the new account. For those who do go this route and register again, be sure to deactivate your older account.
What is stealth mode, exactly?
Stealth mode is a way for you to browse the site without giving away your online status. If you have stealth toggled on, others will not be able to tell that you have viewed them. Also, other members will not see "Online Now" in your profile. You can toggle this option on the Account Settings page, at any time. To get to that page, click the My Account tab and then the Settings link near the top of the page.

After doing this, you may be prompted to confirm the deactivation and to fill out an optional survey. At the bottom of the survey page, click the Continue button. Finally, you will see an "Account Deactivated" message. Click the Logout button at the bottom of the page.

*notes: In order not to get anymore emails from us, you will need to unsubscribe before deactivating the account.
How do I delete my account/profile?
It is not possible to delete Mingle2 accounts/profiles on demand. If your account stays deactivated for some time, though, it will be completely purged in a future site cleanup.
Why do I have to type in a code when logging in, on occasion?
This is a "captcha" security measure which only appears after a number of failed login attempts. We implement it to help ensure that our user base is kept free of automated spammers.
