The 5:1 ratio is still a lie. When I was on there it was pretty easy to scan last log in times for both males and females (not just number of registered users.)  20:1 was more like it.  And of course many of the females were bots as they now admit.  It was a real sausage fest

I remember when I registered for free, I started getting messages and likes from different females. But as soon as I became a fully paid member, everything stopped. Could not get a single "girl"  to respond. Lol I canceled immediately. I suspect that other similar sites use the same business model

Most all of those sites have fake profiles of women to lure men into joining.  Its quite obvious when you have your profile on the site and in less than an hour after joining all these women are interested in you and yet you might not have even posted a photo of yourself yet.  

I checked out seeking arrangements to see if there were some nice gals interested in the sugar baby thing and there were actually Ads I would have liked to have followed up on.  But the kicker was they tell you you can get 10 free messages if you sign up on a trial and post your profile.  What they don't tell you is yes you can receive 10 messages but you can't reply to any of them until you pay up.  The problem with that is without being able to read the messages its hard to tell if its a legit person.  I said no thanks.  

The other thing that troubled me was all the married women who supposedly posted photos of themselves. I just don't see a married woman wanting to be a SB posting a photo of herself as any acquaintance could see the photo and she would be in trouble.  It would have more likely been legit if there was no photo and photos were only exchanged after getting to know each other some.  So again...I think a lot of those profiles are flat out fake.  

AFF is another site with fake profiles

but when a 22 yo hot body hits me up, I pretty well know whats going on.

I was a member of that site and was deeply disappointed with it. 90% of the men were just looking to fill empty time by chatting and never meeting. LOL, never met one man from the site but lucky me was included in the list of those blackmailed.

I found one potential sugar daddy on the site. But most men just want to chat and never want to meet. If you aren't looking to meet me I'm not going to waste my time chatting with you. I haven't given up but I'm not on as much as I used to be.

I hate all the fake profiles and fembots. I guess it is all about money in reality and the owners of these sites just really want to seperate us from our money rather than provide the service that they advertise. Unfortunately most women just aren't into stuff like that, and the few that are, especially if they are good looking don't really need to rely on websites to attract a man. I live in a smaller metro area and the SA site listed 19 potential women seeking an arrangement. Two have already supposedly contacted me. I am leery though of investing a $100 to $200 to be able to message these women to see if any are truly real and seeking an arrangement. Around 12 or 13 years ago I did have some luck with AFF but I think that was more the exception than the rule and I haven't used AFF for a long time now. The ratio of fake women to real women has increased dramatically I think as with most of these sites I'm afraid. Alas, such is the woes of us horny men!

and while I quickly learned how to sort out the real women members from the shills/bots, I found there was an unreasonable belief in self-attractiveness on the part of the women.  Since they are deluged by inquiries from men based on the disparate numbers (20:1 is about right), they start to feel like they are very attractive physically, when most are not.  Met with about a dozen in person, and they were all below my own standard for someone I would be interested in having sex with, even if its free.  I ended up having sex with only one, and right afterward, she asked me to buy her a Rolex watch!  Fuck that!

From my experience AM is a complete scam and waste of time. Many guys think that Seeking Arrangement is much better than AM but I'm sure SA has much of the same fakery going even though there are some real women.

Seems to be taking over that industry.  
Not sure why some providers think it's ok to link their profiles to the site in light of the AM debacle.  
But as soon as I get shimmied over to SB site I dump the provider.

On how many providers actually link their web site to one of those web sites. I think it is the website that they use to make their web site that does the linking, because they use a free base web designer to make it. A price they have to pay for the free service.  I could be wrong

The hobby works for me, so why fix something that isn't broken?

you are so right about the "self-attractiveness" on the site.  I can never get over the sheer number of average to below average women that seek a "Practical" expectation (the highest I think).  Not only are they not the most physically attractive, you see in their profile that they have 2 jobs, 3 kids, and are going to school at night.  Really?  So when do you think you will be able to squeeze in the SD for $5k/month?
