This has definitely happened to me
[QUOTE=HabsBurg;4442030]Just one more data point. My paid subscription ran out last week. I had left some messages for some girls who hadn't replied. Nobody has messaged me since.[/QUOTE]I had a back-and-forth messaging with a SB in late May that died off with her not responding, never got off the site and onto texting. I cancelled my paid membership in July and literally the next day I saw that I had a message from her which I obviously couldn't read. I re-upped so that I could, and the message was "hey sorry I never got back to you, still interested in meeting?" so I responded in the affirmative and never heard back. Mission accomplished to get another month out of me, fortunately I have enough options to stay entertained for awhile until they dry up.
