POF : A tip to keep bots from messaging you.
When you edit your profile, down the bottom is a section titled Mail Settings.
After turning on the 50 character limit in this section I have had no messages from bots – they all limit themselves to « hi » as an opener. Once you’ve made first contact the character limit is removed, so it will only affect people trying to make first contact with *you* and, let’s face it, how often is that likely to happen?

I did this as I was sick of all the messages that just said ‘hi there’ (usually accompanied by an empty profile) and I ended up getting messages that said ‘hi there hi there hi there hi there hi there hi there hi there…’ you get the idea.
Yes good tip. I changed mine to 50 limit too.
Yep that’s what I did.
yeah… unfortunately now I get no messages at all… it’s fun isnt it…
