Seriously…
I think that the reason B3ta would make a better dating site than ‘Match.com’ or whatever it is called (member number 7869433 btw ladies - *winks*), is because with B3ta there is no pretence.
As well as all the valid reasons mentioned above…nobody is (currently) trying to score with anybody, so they are relaxed and honest….erm…except when they’re making stuff up...nd even then it’s usually for entertainment purposes.
If any dating element were to be introduced, then I think it might be a bad thing – it could change the ‘fun’ intentions of posts as people would possibly try and ‘big themselves up’ for pulling.
I personally believe the self-mocking posts where a hero unwittingly ends up on the arse end of some calamity are the best. And those kind of posts could dry up.
Also, all people have to do is add a photo and state their marital status on their profile…start posting…then wait for the gazzes…
*rushes to change profile*
*waits for onslaught of offers*
…
*gives up, starts drinking*
