Now situation 2 is how just about all dating sites are: Mr.X finds the site, sees he can join for free and fills out a profile. He gets teased on the site, maybe by finding girls he'd like to hook up with or maybe form the webcam/chat features, or messages. He decides "ok, I'll give it a shot" and pays the money.

In dating the key to getting members to pay is TO TEASE THEM.

You are right about that Mr. X.. But if he cannot get to the free members area (because he never received a password to his email), he is lost surfer anyway, and definitely would not buy anything.

All the loosers making fun about the cfoxs30 language.. Be a normal guys and not morrons, at least guy tries to write in your native language, i bet it's not first or even 2nd language for him.

By the way, some time ago i have tried to signup with a fling free membership, i was unable to get the welcome email with activation links, so i think they are loosing lot's of potential free (and of course paid) members too..
