It's been this way for years. More guys message me on pof, reply more when I send a message, and stay interested longer. My pics and profile are pretty much the same on both. Why is this?

I've noticed this too. Women on okcupid tend to be more particular in who they respond to. It's also a lot easier to navigate and the search results are more specified.

also there are probably 3x as many people on POF over okcupid.

Because POF is a sausage fest.

So more guys are just looking for sex on Pof? Why does that make more people talk to me on there than Okcupid?

Same with me. When I was online dating I had profiles on both POF and OKCupid. With POF I'd log on and get like 10+ messages. OKCupid? At BEST maybe 1. I'd get a few views but nothing else.

 

For me, and the guys in my area, I noticed the dudes were super pretentious. OKCupid profiles for the NYC area are basically all hipster-douches who go on and on about their startups, their customized lattes, how many countries their dicks have been in, and what extinct animals they've had the opportunity to be photographed with.

 

I never got good vibes reading the profiles on OKCupid. Like LOOKATME LOOKATME I'm so much better than you because I'm such a witty, non-conformist! I am probably way too mainstream for OKCupid dudes. :rolleyes::rolleyes:

Really? That must be pretty old info, cause in the last couple of years they've put in a lot of measures to stop that.

 

I found that OKC leads to a boring profile. The formulaic questions you have to answer makes everyone the same. Yes we all know the 6 things you can't live without are your phone, friends, family, pinot grigio, laughter and the latest Taylor Swift album. And we all know you typically spend your Friday nights either chilling on the sofa with netflix or going out with friends. Snore...

 

POF is much easier to stand out from the crowd because they give you a big blank box to write whatever you like and express your creativing.
