Improving Authenticity and Safety
It was becoming more apparent that “Net Worth” and “Income” were inherently problematic because they were not verifiable and were being used dishonestly. To better protect our members and maintain authenticity on the platform, we’ve concluded that the most accurate measure of a member’s success and generosity is their willingness and ability to invest in meaningful relationships.
There are better ways to more accurately determine the net worth or income of an individual—for example, by reviewing the photos or descriptions on their profiles, which often provide a clearer, more authentic glimpse into the lifestyle a specific member actually leads.
Additionally, to reinforce this approach, our prices will soon increase. This change will naturally help us identify and retain genuinely generous and successful members who truly embody the values our community appreciates.
Questions for the group:
1. Will dropping net worth and income help or hinder allowance negotiations? After a few years of tweaking these fields to see what, if any, impact they had on SB expectations, I settled on using data slightly lower than my actual levels. But to be clear, I think most POT's either never paid attention to them or didn't really understand the difference between them, let alone the significance of various levels of income on cash available for sugar. For example, an SD with an annual (gross) income of say $100k with a family will be unlikely to afford weekly sugar dates at $500 allowances. Yet we have all seen SB's who routinely expect $2000+ a month!
Now the point is moot. But will POT's still try to find a way to gauge an SD's cash flow?
2. "Our prices will soon increase" and Diamond members get early access to new profiles? This probably bothers me more than the loss of net worth and income. I am already budgeting $1200 a year for an ongoing membership on Seeking. Add to that maybe $250-$400 a year when I test other sites like WYP, SB, and others. Will a price hike over the current $290 for 3 months push you off the site? If you stay, will you now pay even more for Diamond level as it may now actually provide a valuable benefit (let's face it, it was useless before) of access to new profiles 3 days before the non-Diamond members?
For me, I'm still not sure Diamond will be a good investment. I rarely get any significant engagement from profiles in their first week - except for scammers.
What's your take on these changes? Will you:
1. Stay on Seeking and accept the higher price?
2. Stay on Seeking and upgrade to Diamond despite the higher price?
3. Use Seeking occasionally, buying a 3-momth membership once or twice a year?
4. Start or increase use of other sites while staying on Seeking?
5. Walk away from Seeking completely?
6. Something else?
