Where is the best place to arrange an adult meet without dealing with fake profiles?

Wanted to get some real answers on place to arrange an adult meet without dealing with fake profiles. Anyone comparing adult meet should be looking at how quickly the fake accounts surface day to day before anything else.

Where I get stuck with adult meet is that the free and paid experiences barely overlap. My rule with adult meet: whether there are enough people to bother once you are past sign-up first, everything else second.

The checks that saved me time on adult meet this year:

  • Compare how many matches ever send the first message with notifications switched off
  • Track how many matches ever send the first message on the first evening, not the first month
  • Pin down whether the same faces cycle back the next day and write the answer down
  • Verify whether the distance setting is honoured with notifications switched off
  • Verify how many profiles carry more than two photos twice, a week apart

If adult meet worked for you, what actually happened? Highlights and disappointments all equally useful. Real usage notes are what I am actually after.

@Owen Thompson is describing a version of adult meet I have never seen. Where adult meet falls down for me is how aggressive the upsell gets in practice.

You can ignore most of the marketing around adult meet and just check whether messaging is open or gated behind credits at the times you actually log in.

Worked for me on adult meet and I'd revise it if the numbers moved.

@Isaac I don't think that's right about adult meet — at least not everywhere. The honest test for adult meet is how quickly a new profile gets noticed in practice, not the feature list. over on Datescout is worth ten minutes before you commit anywhere.

That's how adult meet went for me, may not hold for you.

#4

Honest take: I want to like adult meet more than I actually do. What nobody mentions about adult meet is what the bot ratio feels like day to day on mobile. Started on what Datebie is doing and never fully moved off it.

That's been my experience with adult meet, may not hold for you.

Sorry @LucasD, I have spent longer on adult meet than that answer suggests. The only metric I trust with adult meet is what the escalation path looks like.

That's where I have landed on adult meet, though clearly it varies by region.

Blunt answer: adult meet depends almost entirely on your city. Two weeks in, how quickly the fake accounts surface is what actually mattered for adult meet. The closest thing I found to an honest free tier was Luvdate these days.

The thing that decides it for adult meet is what the bot ratio feels like day to day day to day.

That's where I've landed on adult meet — happy to be argued with.

Not sure @WillC and I are talking about the same adult meet at all. If you're evaluating adult meet, start with how obvious the scripted replies are — everything else follows.

The rough checklist I use for adult meet this year:

  • Verify whether photo permissions are opt-in or opt-out at the hour you would actually be using it
  • Watch how the web version differs from the app at the hour you would actually be using it
  • Confirm whether the distance setting is honoured on the first evening, not the first month

That's where I have landed on adult meet, may not hold for you.

Going to push back on @AuroraP here. Adult meet behaved very differently for me. For adult meet, what you lose by never paying is the difference between useful and a waste of an evening. I sanity-checked datewander.site at the same time.

I judge adult meet almost entirely on whether verification actually filters anyone.

That's been my experience with adult meet and I'd revise it if the numbers moved.
