My trial account with the ridiculous profile (above) has expired, but I did get to email back and forth with a couple of people who happened to be REAL. Both were men....pretty cool guys actually who gave me their regular email address. I guess because my account had mistakenly placed me as a man (due to my bearded/moustache answer), I happened to receive an email a few hours before my account expired. The email was from supposedly a woman. It was a very GENERIC email about how they were browsing through the profiles and found mine interesting, and how "you never know when you might meet the right guy". The so-called woman had a pic of course...some young blond chick. (You would think with the profile I had posted, the person would have written "ARE YOU FOR REAL???"). I wrote back and said "I am a woman". Several hours later (when my account expired), I could not access anything on the site, and my username/password does not work. Strange isn't it? I guess the admin must have seen my response and my profile and figured out that I was testing the site. (Look up the profile HunnyBunz) So my conclusion is the MEN ARE REAL, but the women are not! I feel bad for the guys who are paying for this, because they are definitely getting ripped!

Hello again, I decided to test LoveOnTheWeb again (since my trial account had expired and couldn't read the other emails), and this time I made my profile so ridiculous that I'd be surprised if a real person responded! I wrote to a few people, so let's see what they think about me. Here is what I put: (For some reason, it put me as a "male", but I filled out the initial form as a "female". I think it placed me as a male because of my answer about the beard.. See below.) -Would you travel to meet someone from here? Anywhere within 100 miles. -Are you happy with the point you are at your life? I'm about to take off. -What are your spending habits? I'm really cheap. -What are your religious practices? I'll convert when I'm on my death bed. -What kinds of music do you enjoy most? (May choose more than one) Country. -What types of movies do you like best? (May choose more than one) Art. -Pick some great escapes. (May choose more than one) A weekend at a nude beach. -What is your education level? Have not finished high school yet. -What is your favorite season? Spring. -Do you drink? I bathe in the stuff. -Do you smoke? I smoke like a chimney. -I am... Very attractive. -How much facial hair do you have? (May choose more than one) Mustache. Beard. -What is your annual income? This is my business only. -What type of work do you do? Other. -What is the style of your hair? Bald. . -What is the color of your hair? Other. -What is the color of your eyes? Brown. -How tall are you? Less than 5'. -What is your present living situation? Other. -How much do you shave? My shave includes a bikini trim. -Do you have children? I have 3 or more children. -I am currently Hopeful. -What race best describes you? I don't think this matters. -What type of food do you enjoy? (May choose more than one) Fruit. -Do you use eyewear? I can't see the monitor, so I can't answer this one.. -Why did you join Love On The Web? (May choose more than one) To find a bride/groom. -Describe the type of person you might be interested in meeting. What do you find attractive (or annoying) in a person? I think Hervey Velachez ("Tattoo" from Fantasy Island) is a hottie. -What is the FIRST thing others notice about you? I suppose it is the fact that I am 4'1" tall, and also 4' 1" wide. I like to call myself "the human cube". Also I am bald and have a beard. How many women do you know are like that??? -Who would be involved in a potential relationship (besides the person you might find here)? Just me!. -What type of work do you do. For how long. Do you like your work? I am currently a cirus clown midget for Ringling Bros. I have been doing it for about 5 years now and I enjoy it very much. I do have a beard, and I wanted to try out for the "bearded lady" position, but unfortunately Bertha (the current bearded lady) has that job. I'll just wait until she retires. -What are your favorite pastimes? Hobbies? What do you do on your day off? I enjoy training my flea circus to do new tricks, using my dandruff to make it "snow", and letting out sbd farts (silent but deadly) and then pretending it wasn't me.. -What would you have printed on a T-shirt? Gee, your hair smells nice. -If you have any pets what are they? Do they have any unique habits? Besides my flea circus, I also have a pet German cockroach I call "Coco". He's cool! -What is one special thing you would most like in life? To be taller, but I'm sure there are a lot of advantages to being a midget. -If you suddently inherited a great deal of money, what would you do with it? I would quit the circus and start my own "midget union". I would probably also buy a wig made from human hair...the silky kind that comes from Asian women (they have nice hair). -Is there one special place you would like to visit? Any place above 4 foot 1 is good. -What would you do on a dare? How adventurous can you be? How would you surprise your lover? (Let loose here). Come on, say more than it depends on the moment or the person! If I made you laugh, then I accomplished my goal. -Where exactly are you located? Here is the place to tell other members where you live. This is especially important for sites that have a state designation only. Please DO NOT list your street or home address, otherwise leave as much detail as you wish. Nationally...remember, I'm in a CIRCUS! Where did you hear about LoveOnTheWeb.net? Other web page. I'll keep you all updated!

I enjoy reading Rip Off Report daily. I came across the complaints about LoveOnTheWeb.com, so naturally I became curious. I created a profile on LoveOnTheWeb.com, but I didn't put anything phony or fake about myself. I answered the questions as truthfully as I could. So far I have gotten like maybe 11 mails, but the trial account only lasts for a few days, so I have only been able to read maybe 3 of those emails. The few emails I did read seemed kind of vague and seemed to be talking generally, like it could apply to anyone. One of those emails did ask me to back up my profile with a pic, so I am assuming that person was real. I was looking at "Who's Logged On" and out of the dozens of names that are supposedly logged on, only two happen to be female (me being one of them). I am guessing that maybe the male members ARE real, but I am sure with the female to male ratio on that site being 1 woman for every 100 men, there are some fake profiles of women. I remember back in the day when love sites such as these used to be FREE. I guess everyone needs to make a buck these days. My suggestion: Just go into an online chat room and talk to people and meet people. Don't waste your time with these pay love sites.
