No longer on OKCupid

[firecat]

Deleted my OKCupid account because they are trying to get people to use their "real names," whatever those are. Apparently they aren't going to police the names the way FB does, but although I have reluctantly chosen to make an exception for FB, I'm done with social media sites that have policies requiring "real names".

I've done the same. The "real names" thing was just the last straw. They've removed all of the features that once made it an interesting and useful site.

Yeah, I said fuck it. I'm not going to pay to see who likes me and, if I have to like someone to get their messages, the site's lost all usefulness for me. This was just the last straw.
