OkCupid: jumping the shark?

[emote_control]

Apparently, OkCupid was bought by Match.com, and took down their OkTrends article where they explain why you should not pay Match.com or Eharmony.com for dating services.

I expect a paywall within 12 months... :/

I better get a move on then!

I suspect you have little to worry about!

Aw man. I was hoping maybe once we moved to a city I'd get some traction out of that place. Well, back to my plan of actually trying to meet people in real places.

NOOOOOOOOOOOO

THIS IS BULLSHITTTTT

IT'LL MAKE ME ACTUALLY HAVE TO SOCIALIZE.

I don't like that they sacrificed their integrity for cash a bit here either.

[dicedork]

To be fair, "a bit"=$50,000,000

There isn't much I wouldn't sell for that much, knowing that for the rest of my life I could do anything I wanted, no matter how artistically esoteric.

Ahh, but I didn't say "a bit of cash" I said "sacrificed their integrity for cash a bit here" by which I meant that they only sort of sacrificed their integrity, mostly referring to them deleting their previous post.

[dicedork]

Ah. Yeah, well, it's sort of selling out, but only the most hardcore artsy fartsy types wouldn't consider it sort of bad form.

Rock on!!!!

Oh great, now OKC can become my moral judge.
