Is Furrymate even worth it? I truly wanna know.
11 years ago
Everything revolves in its own time, regardless of your own desires.
So I guess this site called FurryMate I've signed up for doesn't seem to be worth it on my end.
The last time I used it, the site doesn't let me read them until I "upgrade" my account... by paying. Since I didn't have any balance to my Paypal, nor even have that much to deal with cryptic messages, so I wrote on my profile to go to my sites for any way to send emails and instant messages.
But that's doesn't work, since there's a large mess of words being censored on purpose and you wouldn't know that at first until AFTER updating your profile. Even google and email is censored, it's a douchy way of saying "you are forced to have no option other than our OWN message system", particularly on a site where there's not much activity.
So after a few months, I log in my email today to read something titled "Now or Never" and assumed that the site is shutting down, instead I get this:
"All unread messages are deleted after a period of being unopened, so don't wait before it's too late!"
So basically I have to pay some cash to upgrade my account temporarily to see if I have messages that isn't a single word, or lose 27 messages that are posted despite of me writing "I CAN'T READ THEM GUYS" just because I'm too cheap to pay for a furry version of eHarmony.com that didn't have this forced payment crap in the first place! Well... not in such a mandatory manner at least.
Pay or lose messages? Pay or delete the account and find something active or less obnoxious? I know I sound too whiny but I don't even know who's gotten good NOR bad results from this site even after all these years, this is why I named this journal "Is it worth it?" instead of "I'm too cheap to find long-distance relationships without instant conversations". But then again, I walk alot in this city, I can just get a date manually if I had the patience... and time... and money... oh...
Your thoughts?
