It's a tough call....Standard members here are pretty much helpless....I remember when Standard members could at least read a message sent to them....and even respond....but thats been gone now for some time. I spent years as a Gold member, sending message after message, and had very little return....gave it up, remained as a Standard member and focused on my blog. Developed a bit of a following over a year or so, and actually met up with a member local to me, and we spent a few years together.....

I came back 6 months or so now, as a Standard member, and yep, you can't do shit....so I bit the bullet and gave them some cash. I've had some response to my messages, but it is oh so slow.....so I toy with the bots and fake profiles.....string them along and out them to the site......but that's getting old....as am I.....I suspect when my current membership is up, I'm out of here....

Unless, of course, "She" comes along and pulls me up out of the depths.....Hope Springs Eternal".....

I'm a standard member and I can answer messages. But as a female I tend to get special privileges.

I would revert to standard....and continue to blog since you do it for yourself. After a few weeks or so.....you will get an offer you cant refuse to re up to gold. Then decide..to stay or leave.
Just so you know...loads of potential partners have an aversion to married ones. That in itself...lowers your pool of candidates.
Though, at a certain advanced age..everyone is married /attached or carrying some other baggage.

Good Luck with it all ~~

if your negative experiences outweigh the positive would it not be insane to pay for negative experiences
if you are here to blog, then there is no need for gold
"Decision 4: Delete my account and say goodbye to A*F*F. Whether I stay or go will make no difference to the people on this site. I doubt anyone would even notice my departure."
this seems to be the most reverent of decisions, one not made by use but by faith itself.... when leaving becomes more pleasant than staying, naturally one will leave.
bonne vie

there is a world of difference between insane and stupid

Hot damn, I am not alone. My Gold lapsed in August. I have tried to get my gold back using points. BUT I am now having a major feud with the site as they want me to send them a copy of either my passport or my driver's license. Getting gold mean you are now being told to become VERIFIED. Well this place has been hacked way too many times and I am refusing. I will go after them for as long as it takes to be able to use my points without the "restrictions"

(Virtual Symposium Group) use Virtual Symposium Group

    Quoting  :

Since lapsing back to standard I have noticed that while I can stil read and reply to emails on here in the standard web mode, when I switch to the app, the emails are blurred out and I cannot reply.
