		<description>The owner and the mods have a lot of disrespect towards the users. You see this displayed in the suggestion forums and any other forum where we get to interact with them. Snotty attitudes. And lots of control issues. They disallow chatting in the forums which is how many people get to know whether or not the want to befriend or date someone. They are big on rules and don&#39;t seem to care about pleasing the people who have made Markus rich. And I&#39;ve read on the site that the mods don&#39;t get paid. My God, how stingy. If you&#39;re rich Markus, pay the people who help run your site.</description>

		<description>"but try searching for any online dating term and I don&#39;t think you&#39;ll see any PoF ads."&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Have you tried typing "dating" into Google? There&#39;s a POF ad right there.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;But he could do well without AdWords, the site is sticky and I&#39;m sure he gets plenty of organic traffic. Revenue makes sense based on numbers, and with smart caching and limited DB calls the load could be handled by only a few servers.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Besides, one nice benefit (or goal?) of releasing the numbers means stories like this, which mean free publicity and page rank boost.</description>

		<description>Woh, Mr. Markus is the top sample that I am impressed in my life. He has a master mind in marketing and managing his site by himself.&lt;br&gt;Again, Mark, if you read this note, I just want to say how smart you are.&lt;br&gt;Again, thank you for sharing his successful story.&lt;br&gt;Jenny.</description>
