Relationship Between POF Meet Me and POF Username Search
Many women use the 'Meet Me' feature on POF as an indirect and lady-like way to introduce themselves to a guy. An image of a guy would have three buttons below the image with the caption "do you want to meet [username]?". When a women clicks YES the guy would get an email indicating the girls interest. The email would say "[username] wants to meet you. Click here to upgrade to paid POF membership to see who it is. The guy could simply copy and paste the girls username in the POF username search page and visit the girls profile without having to upgrade.
Marcus Frind (owner of POF) and the marketing crew must have realized this bypass of paid membership was going on so they removed the username search from the Plenty Of Fish dating site in 2016. Its seems as though it is still available in some countries but not others which indicates the POF crew is doing some testing or marketing research on the effects of removing their username search.
