Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this site free?
A: Yes, it is 100% FREE. No fees whatsoever, no different membership levels. You can contact other members absolutely free.
Q: How do I use this site?
A: Just like any other dating site or social network, we are no different! You search for members you like via Site search, then send them a private message. Of course you can also poke them, send them a gift, post on their newsfeed or comment on their pictures, but you will get a much better chance of response if you send them a nice meaningful message and properly introduce yourself.
Q: Can I buy credits with money?
A: No, our credits are virtual, just to boost the site's activity.
Q: What should I do if I don't have enough credits?
A: There are many ways to earn credits: post in forums, join and participate in groups, upload photos and videos, answer polls, etc.. Also, if you don't have a picture on your profile by adding a picture you will gain additional 10 credits. Similarly, if you remove avatar you will lose 10 credits.
Q: My credit balance was reduced. Why?
A: If the administration believes that you are abusing the credit system and your activity has the only purpose of gaining credits, like adding contradicting answers in polls, adding forum or group posts one after another with nobody answering (basically talking to yourself), uploading too many of similar pics, etc.. the activity will be erased and points will be taken away from you. The repeated activity of that nature might even lead to account suspension. Also, you don't earn credits for uploading pictures to private albums, only to public albums.
Q: I registered with Facebook. How come I cannot login with Facebook anymore?
A: We disabled Facebook login application due to their numerous privacy violation issues and because the majority of profiles placed via Facebook were of extremly low quality. However, if you registered with Facebook your profile is still here and you can still log into our site directly, without Facebook. Just request a new password from "Forgot Password" page (use your Facebook email address) and login with your email address and new password.
Q: How do I add an avatar?
A: You can do it on your profile page, there is a "Change avatar" link over there. There is also a link on your Dashboard.
Q: How do I add pictures?
A: You can do it on the photo pages. There is also a link on your Dashboard.
Q: Why cannot I upload avatar?
A: In most cases the reason for that is simple: the picture you are trying to upload as avatar is TOO BIG. The limit is 2MB, 1500 x 1500 pixels, which is a lot, a very reasonable limit. But many people try to upload those HUGE 3-4MB pictures right from their cameras. This is not a suitable image size for the Internet. You need to resize your pictures before trying to upload them online. If you don't know how to do it on your computer or mobile device, there are many free online services that resize pictures for you right away, just Google "resize picture online". Your image also cannot be too small, the minimum is 190 x 190 pixels.
Q: What can I use as avatar?
A: Only your own photo showing your face. We don't allow generic images as avatars, like cartoons, pets, cars, celebrities, etc..

A: You can set the age of your desired partner by editing your profile and changing the age range of your match. Other options you can adjust in matchmaking preferences section.
Q: Why cannot I find anybody in my area?
A: Because it is a small site with limited amount of members. The main point of Datingnmore is being SCAM FREE. How can one effectively monitor a huge site with millions of members and protect them from scammers? The only way to do so is manually check every single profile: IP address, email address, pictures, description... everything! When a site has hundreds of registrations per day it is simply impossible.
Q: What are Hearts?
A: You earn 1 heart per one valid login per 12 hours. Later you can share hearts you've earned with other users by clicking on "Share Heart" link on their profile. If you have an automatic login on (in other words, if you ticked the box "Remember me" at login) the hearts will not accumulate, you have to actually login with your username and password in order to earn a heart.
Q: What are Polls?
A: This is a section where you can ask questions which other users will later answer and create a voting poll. You should ask some interesting questions that everybody can answer. This is NOT a section for asking site-related questions and it is NOT intended for the personal communication with another user. An example of acceptable question: "What is your favorite movie?". An example of NOT acceptable question: "Why I cannot upload avatar?" or "Hi, how are you?" addressed to another user.
Q: What is Newsfeed?
A: A newsfeed is a public area of profiles that everybody can see (unless a user made it private on their profile). Everything you post there (on your own newsfeed or on other people's newsfeeds) is not private, everybody can see that. This is like writing on the wall. If you want a private communication, send them a private message.
Q: What is Poke?
A: This is a Facebook thing, like getting somebody's attention which we extended a bit. If you click on Poke it will give you options to poke, hug, kiss, wink or spank a user.
