Money Scam For The Birds
March 12, 2015

Not a fair dating website

Tip for consumers:

This site is site is Prejudiced against African American women. And I am an African American woman. I have never heard of a dating site that you had to be voted in or out. This is insulting, because the guys on this site do not look any better than the men on Match.com. And the men on this site were not professional degreed men with stable jobs either. I fiound this site to be basis against people of color. There werte no black men on this site that voted on me, they were all White, This site is

SO HERE IS THE REVIEW I WISH I HAD READ FIRST:
November 20, 2014

SO HERE IS THE REVIEW I WISH I HAD READ FIRST:

Have tried several dating sites and this is by far the most difficult site to date on. Full stop. Period.

Me... A real person trying to see if he can get online dating to work as a healthy avenue to starting a new relationship and meet new people. I'm 33, fit an healthy and handsome - don't have trouble attracting women. Just trying something new. So it should work for me right?

My experience...
Got voted in - which in itself is challenging
Was mesmerised by what appears to be choice.
Of course cannot contact without paying. So silly me paid for the year - ELITE MEMBERSHIP! Thinking what the hell - it is my dating life - important right?

Then contacted several women in a genuine way over the course of the year- a way real women would definitely feel happy to respond to. (Being myself - not just saying 'hi')
Over the course of 1 year, have so far made only one real person connection. Not for want of trying - I estimate I have spent hundreds of hours on the site.

Most profiles of women on there are fake - with real scammers behind them. There are some real ones - but they are just bombarded by scammers and the "hi. What are you wearing" type of contact from a hundred guys - so it is very very difficult to make contact.
Was 'winked' at by several women - most of which are scammers with fake profiles trying to lure me of the site to a sex website with coupon codes or some crap.

So as it stands, 1 year in, paid membership, no date. You might think that there is something fundamentally wrong with my approach, the way I look? - This will sound arrogant but I would beg to differ. I was voted in - real pics - which says a lot. I wrote my varying approaches with care and genuine interest. In fact the one genuine person on there who replied thanked me profusely for my message saying it was the first genuine message and she had almost given up. Now I know what you are thinking - maybe I am in with a shot - so many women getting scammed but surely they will know and welcome the real deal when they see it. Lets look at the odds...

You get voted in - 50/50
You contact 100 women - 80% scam profiles
20 real profile - all bombarded with 100s of messages - they open your 10% chance - 2 real women read your message.
Chances they are going to give you the benefit of the doubt, have paid membership themselves to contact you, and there is a connection worth pursuing? 1%

You could spend a lifetime on this site and achieve nothing. Not to mention the site itself is build on some seriously slow tech - cumbersome to use on any platform.

If you are looking at dating seriously best advice I can give - be yourself, be open and free, socialise by going to group meetings and places where you are more likely to have something in common with someone and travel. It will be time and money better spent!

Best of luck in love

P.s. If you are looking to for something casual - you will be hard pressed to use this site - don't say you were not warned.

September 18, 2014

I believe this website to be fraudulent and here's why...

Some friends and I were joking about this website as it's obviously more useful for hook ups and casual relationships than anything serious, but we wanted to see the demographic of users and the setup of the site (and obviously if we would be accepted) so we applied to join. I'm not a supermodel, I'd consider myself a 6.5-7. So I was surprised when after a few hours I was already pretty close to the maximum level of attractiveness on the review bar. There were maybe 60% "beautiful", 20% "hmm, okay", 5% "no", and 15% "absolutely not". The bars would change slightly every now and then, but they stayed steady for the most part until 36 hours in. Then through the next 11 hours, the "absolutely not" bar filled up almost completely without any of the other bars moving until at last, with 1 hour to go, I received an email that I had been declined.

The only scenarios I can imagine this happening in where there isn't some sort of tampering is if perhaps my picture was shown alongside a more attractive woman's picture and male users were asked to choose who was the most attractive, or maybe my profile was listed in its last 12 hours as "about to join" and I received more exposure. As I wasn't accepted, I don't know how the rating process is set up. However, watching the process in its final stages was almost laughable. The idea that enough men would spontaneously decide I was unattractive in the last 12 hours to the point where it would completely undo the last 36 hours of ratings is silly. And every single one of them deciding "absolutely not"? To undo the previous ratings, I'd have to imagine that's at least 30-50 consecutive absolute rejections without any other kind of input. And of course, just 1 hour before I'm accepted... how convenient.

"Unfortunately, your application to BeautifulPeople was not successful.
Please note, only one in five applicants are currently accepted into BeautifulPeople.com... BeautifulPeople encourages you to try again."

You encourage me to try again. Of course you do. The thing about a setup like this is that it demands a certain amount of rejection to maintain its exclusive and prestigious reputation. Which is fine, but don't be surprised if you suddenly find yourself going from "hot" to "not" in suspiciously little time. They feel required to refuse 80% of applicants, so my guess is that it comes down to a third party having way too many people accepted, but too few spots to fill, so they plummet whoever the weakest links in the accepted bunch are. Whether that be because they're not *as* attractive or because they don't have the ideal fields filled out (for a site like this, they'd probably prefer you be looking for a relationship or for flirtation so that you pay for their subscription).

My point to all of this is, it's likely not legitimate. Maybe it is, but even with my story aside, you have to consider that in order to keep their reputation, they're going to have to narrow down the accepted members to a select few. Plus, more rejection equals more exposure and more desperate applicants.

January 10, 2014

I find it hilarious that all these people are basically saying, "this website for attractive people voted me out because I'm not attractive! How stupid!"

No... you're stupid.

Look, your whole life people have told you that beauty is only skin deep, it's what's on the inside that counts or being overweight is healthy, back in the old days us a little extra meat on your bones was sought after, or the media instills a false sense of beauty in people, or blah blah blah blah. You've been told this because you're unattractive.

The truth is sexual attraction is a completely chemical reaction inside the brain, it's mother nature trying to trick you into making little humans with that person because they have GOOD GENETICS, AND ARE MORE LIKELY TO PRODUCE STRONG HEALTHY BABIES.

Sorry... the truth hurts, but you should just accept it. You're ugly... so what... so is 75-90% of the population. You should have no trouble finding someone.

That being said. This site is STILL ABSOLUTE BULL$#*!.

After signing up and getting some attention from quite a few women, some who I honestly don't understand how they were voted in, but there was one absolute doll, my absolute favorite type of girl, perfect facial features, short, toned, blonde, with a profile that I immediately identified with, I was filled with excitement! Only to have my excitement crushed seconds later by a wave of emotions; surprise, denial, anger, disgust, and finally total disappointment that I'd have to drop a minimum of 24 bucks just to have a conversation with her. I'm still considering doing it... but I hate the owners of this website so much that I am very hesitant to support their greed.

If you are an owner and you're reading this, to you I say this:

There is so much money to be made through advertising on the internet, there's absolutely no reason you should FORCE your members into a paid subscription if they want to use the most basic function of a dating website: COMMUNICATION,
Give me one conversation a month at least... and offer paid memberships with all kinds of goodies that people can buy if they want. List them first in voting, unlimited messages, more pictures, I don't know... $#*! like that. I'm pretty sure you can think of something.

My point is., I'm very disappointed in you. You realize you (along with billions of other people) represent some of the worst aspects of humanity? Seriously... MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY $#*! EVERYTHING ELSE. ME ME ME ME ME ME $#*! EVERYONE ELSE.

It makes me sick.

August 4, 2013

I decided to join this website out of curiosity to see if I would make the cut. I did end up getting in with the bigger majority of my votes being in the green. However, I was eventually turned off by the glaring spelling and grammar mistakes. You would think that a website that tried to equate itself with ModelMayhem would at least bring in someone to make sure they don't come across as bumbling, illiterate idiots. The dialog messages, and the e-mails were terribly embarrassing. The e-mail from them congratulating me on making the cut was thoroughly embarrassing, especially when they included this:

"Tweet your success:
I am Beautiful! Join my beautiful world, if you can. BeautifulPeople.com" as definitely gives one insight on the kind of people who run the website. A very poor marketing ploy to say the least.

After I made the cut, I decided that I might as well as see what I could get out of the website. I did find a lot of attractive people, but there were most certainly unattractive people. It was obvious that their application pictures didn't really clearly display their looks, and they probably didn't bother to put up any more quality pictures after they got in because they probably didn't think it was necessary since they were already in. That's just what I've noticed, and I'm not saying I'm right in any way but it sure seemed that way.

But most of the attractive people had joined because of the promise of "modeling scouts." However, think about it: Most scouts are not "attractive" enough to make the cut. How would they begin to recruit people using that website? Plus, you have to pay a subscription fee to message people. I would have thought that the website would at least attempt to connect their users who haven't paid, at least in one way. How am I supposed to feel compelled to shell out a fee of 60 dollars when I can hardly see how it would benefit me?

Just to message people and use the forum? No way! Maybe if there was something else, but the messaging function is simply not enough. That function should be given out to all users, and then there should be premium content of some sort. But then again, it's clear that the arrogant jerk who runs the website knows very little about good publicity. Please don't think for a second that you're missing out on anything if you didn't make the cut. I only gave this website one star because giving it a zero isn't an option.

Needless to say, I deactivated my profile. Only after a week, give or take a day. I don't recommend this for anyone who values professionalism, intelligence, or anyone who considers themselves to be at least a little "pansexual" with their attraction to others because there is definitely no personality when it comes to this website at all!

September 10, 2012

Unfortunately I had to give it one star because I couldn't go lower than that. At first I didn't understand the appeal of beautifulpeople.com. Then I went on and used numerous pictures of very attractive women from other dating sites and posted them there and made fake profiles and got accepted with all. What I found out is amazing. For one, the main reason people go on beautifulpeople has nothing to do with looks but everything to do ego. They are stoking their own. The majority of the members are so insecure and unconfident about themselves it's amazing. You have people from all walks of life and professions and many of them are what they say they are. One was a surgeon, who provided pictures of himself in the operating room - a very handsome man. But he was so insecure about his sexuality and so limited in his social skills that I found it hard to even have a normal conversation with him. Another guy, also very handsome, sent a lot of benign messages to me but after a while he started trying to pump me for information on what I thought about his looks as if that was more important than character. Even the one guy who I though was a halfway decent character started sending me messages indicating that he wanted me to talk dirty to him. Similiar incidents like this happened over and over and over again with other guys.

And forget about the women. The majority are so low class they're slightly a step up from porn star material - and that's only slightly. There are a lot more women with class on sites like zoosk and match than on beautifulpeople. At least they are real and down to earth. The majority of women on beautiful people, no matter their age, are embarrasingly crass. Seeing a 60 year old women who is trying to be something she is not - half naked in an attempt to be sexy is soooo not sexy. It's funny and embarassing. Almost all the women, no matter their age, with the exception of maybe 2, had pictures in various states of undress. There was not one girl who had that healthy girl next door look. All were trying to be something they were not and the majority had professionally touched up pictures to boot. That goes for a lot of the men too. Overall, that's how I would describe beautifulpeople. The biggest flaw of beautifulpeople however is that unless you live in an urban area you would be hard pressed to meet anyone in your area. But after what I have found out about the shallow superficial members, why would you want to?.
