This was a great website during its Inception. But over the years it has deteriorated due to all the gays, stalkers, and hackers. Some members flood and spam the chat rooms, Some creating fake profiles with the same exact spelling of an already existing profile. I saw one member get harassed and they posted her real name and address. So you are definitely not anonymous at that site. I have been harassed and stalked myself to the point of closing my account, and i will not be returning anytime soon.
I came across at least 3 men who sound like scammers. They come on very strong with the romance but soon start asking for money. They are always from Africa. One is even impersonating member of United States Army! Women need to be very careful. If they are promising you the sun and stars and you have only known them a few weeks, be wary.
Blackplanet is full of racist users that do nothing but chat racial derogatory content about white people all day long and the website allows it. When whites complain they are ignored. When someone gets sued for racial discrimination or slandering white users maybe the owners will wake up.
I've been on this site 1 month I've already meet 4 men claiming to be single working in the U. S but over in some parts of Africa within few days of just chatting each asks for money,,, one help with mom's operation, another help wit food there this site has a lot of scanners And a couple has not taken no for answer I will be reporting. Then blocking them a lot if the profiles are fake please don't get taken in
It was a pretty good site but like most of the old social site (myspace) it's gotten worse with age. However the scammers like so many of you mention are easy to spot once you go into their page or once they start to talk to you so I'm not worry about them. As for this site being racist like I saw in two comments that just sounds like right wing propaganda lol.
Yeah, nice community and always worth checking out. You can socialze and discuss many topics. It ain't a real dating site though so if you really want to go into serious dating you rather use large black dating sites sites like BlackSingles4u.com or maybe Blackpeoplemeet.com. But this is a great black community forum. Been an active member since 2011 so I know there ain't no better community for us. Keep it up guys, you have build up hell of a forum
My first thought was that this was a pseudo black community site pretending to be about black people and their struggles but I was wrong. I met many black women and men who are focused on elevating the black community.
Site is run by racist scammers who allow fake profiles to threaten you in messages or posts. Then they block you from leaving any messages or comments. Beware of this racist anti-white site. There is no customer service because they are the ones doing this.
You have people stealing your posts and pictures. Then they get very disrespectful when you call them on their $#*!, starts with the name calling etc. It's wrong as two left shoes to steal someone's posts and pictures and posts as if it's them
Hey this is a scary site. Men are using the military and there kids to prey on innocent women. They will pretend too like and care for you. They will ask for money. This site need too shut down before someone gets hurt. And the military need too justify this immediately.
Hi I am a member of Blackplanet.com My nick name is jessismiles
I do not understand why I was banned when i try to log on this is what it says
I became a member to make friends and have good decent conversations and to share interests and listen to music and chat also my photo was stolen and someone else try to use it as well as my nick name I think this is not right please do something about it. There is too many fake profiles on there and scams.
Barf is what comes to mind. How can anyone go to a website with a name like this. It is so racist. This website would bring out the worst of people just so they can meet people because of the color of their skin. Absolutely gross idea of anyone interested for this reason. What shade of skin would be dark enough to be on a website like this? How can anyone looking for a decent human being think that another person who selected this site for skin color could be worthy of their time?
I tried to browse the site to explore some of the content and immediately thrers a pop up prompting me to sign up before I can actually navigate through the site, sort of like give me your money than I show you my product. SMH.
I have met actually 3 people on this site and it was great. Beware of scammers. Some users may want to lure you to other sites.
The site overall is OK. A little slow to load but it is not a nuisance.
Best of all, try to meet locals. Most long distance users are fake.
Wow we try numerous times to have profiles on BlackPlanet only to have them killed by BP Administration for looking good and being white! The Site is NOT SECURE full of scammers and people not who they say they are!
Men can dog women out all day. I never dog them out on feeds but my account got removed. The feeds full of misogyny and clingy people always in your inbox.
To make this very quick, this site has so many technical issues. Many parts just don't work. Sometimes you can't even log on. If anyone one is tech. Savvy. It's a thing call Denial of Service attack and this site to seem to be under one. They always state they are going under maintenance this happens just about every day. I hate to say this but this site seems to be run by ghetto black people. Matter of fact this how much crap I think it is. My page name is damittohell on their…see ya!
The worst site to sign onto is "Black Planet". Please if you sign on be very careful. I was on that site for less than a month before encountering a scammer from nigeria, but claimed he lived in the US but working in Nigeria. He is on 'scamvictimsunited'. Be careful. I reported him to black planet and his username is no longer there, but he is on the site under several different users using the same photos. How can "Black Planet" not know. So much for a trusted site.
They're using other people's contact information on the web. An alert for the dark web contact information leak points to email accounts from their domain.
They are a pure racist website, there spokesmen are only into talking degradingly about white men's ethic level. Hate crime artist anti breast cancer awareness, and pro hate crime minded to treat our White womwen badly. They just are mean "blacks".
Answer: Yes it does. I think it supports English, Ebonics and AF Rican
