One of many knockoff SA sites
It gets annoying Googling stuff for people, but you have to appreciate the pains some sites go through to get a piece of the action (seekingarrangement-com dot com). I know of one female (who I met on POF) who signed up for that thinking that it was SA.
Happy Hunting,

Sharing clear face pics on SA
I interact with an increasing number of women who are on SA. Once I meet them in real life or communicate outside of SA, I block them on the website although a few have asked why I deactivated my account. I don't need them trying to keep further tabs on me through SA as my profile changes. They get the message:
[I][center]
Profile not found.
That user's profile can no longer be found. The member might have deactivated their account, been suspended, or blocked you.

I was hanging out with a SB friend and she was showing me messages from some of the guys that had contacted her. The whole process was pure comic relief for her. I kept repeating, "WTH? C'Mon man!" as she showed me the profile with clear face pics and his approach to the hunt. She had created her profile as a SB, but also created an account as a SD to check out her competition. She was even communicating with other SBs, masquerading as a SD, and essentially messing with the girls for her own amusement. This seemed like actions of a sociopath, but I trusted that she had a method to her madness. After spending quite a bit of time shoulder surfing, I hope that none of us on USASG are guilty of this: posting clear face pics on SA, whether in the public or in private photo space of SA.
Just think about that for a moment: you are posting clear face pics on the Interwebs on a site like SA. Analogous to my SB friend's approach, you may be exposing clear face pics to a dude simply pic collecting. This likely isn't specific to SA (since the pics could be fakes), but we all have varying degrees of risk tolerance.
Stay safe,
Milfman.
RE: Tackling and blocking
[QUOTE=GaltGuy;3127718]Block a user after making connection: outstanding idea. Thanks.[/QUOTE]Sounds counter-intuitive, so I should have clarified. There's no reason to communicate with them through SA any more since we've made the proper connection and taken everything offline. Keeps the conversation moving more effectively outside of SA. Conveying the message: "I didn't see a need to keep the profile active since we met" seems to work with most of them. Blocked.
Stay safe,

Blocking the profile: explained
I just now realize my comment could easily be misread from my intention. I was being quite serious: blocking someone with whom I've already made connection really, really is smart. It says "I have you, baby, and don't need anyone else. ". I really like that idea.

Question on first meeting
How many of you are paying for just a meet and greet? Some of the girls I talked to are expecting anywhere between $100-$200 to meet and say hello. This sounds more like a scam than a legit reason to discuss arrangement.
