Link to profile or GTFO
My cousin had some bird instant message him a while ago, he went away to make a cuppa and when he came back she'd typed something to the effect of "Oh, so you're not gonna reply, well you're just like the rest of them!!!!!!"
Might be the same one.. is she about 29 with glasses?
I've read through the whole thread and LOL-ed at the stories where it went wrong somehow 
Probably one of the best threads on OcUK so far.
I've signed up with:
Meetic
Paid for a 6 month sub back in 2006 and paid for another 6 months in Dec 2008. Generally sent out messages, winks, etc but haven't had any decent replies. Going to delete my profile after the sub runs out.
Before the website was FREE for females, but since has changed.
Match.con
Waste of money.. even before those ads were on TV.
okcupid
Free.
The tests created by staff and members are very good. Some of the stuff written on the female member profiles can provoke you into sending them *swearie* messages.
Loopylove
Not enough quality profiles to make you subscribe.
flirtbox
Free.
Sent messages but had no replies. Once in a while I get males viewing my profile, WTF?
I might give the plentyoffishies website a go. So to all the people on this site thinking they haven't got anywhere in the online dating scene, there is someone more hopeless than you

Yes, she is!
Update..
After leaving it last night with the last email coming from her saying that she wants to 'try again' [WTF - I've only 'known' her a day] I awoke to find 2 emails from her.
First one was a '"you've wasted a chance to be with someone special" and the seconds saying the she's "leaving the site because of you, but in a good way"
Lucky escape in my book. Funny thing was I was really interested until she flipped, for no reason. My emails were always polite, complimentry and detailed as were hers. Just seems me not replying within her time frame pushed her 'whooooop whoooop I'm a freak' button.
So kids, the moral of this story is... Until they have a mental health check don't give them your number or address.
On the up side I received 2 more emails from other PoF'ers this morning

You seem to get a lot of emails. What is your recipe for success?
From what I've been told it's because my profile is 'different' to most others.
I've got three pictures. One head shot, one waist up and one full body, all clothed. This is very important!
My 'about me' is what I've been upto recently, rather than the usual "I'm kind, caring, loyal blah blah".
I personally think it's because I don't try too hard to win someone over with my profile.
Yes, she is!

Link to her profile Gorram it!!
Girls like those in Orange Peel's last few posts are bloody freaks!
The first sign of that with me and it's kick/banned from life.
Had one before....never again and they never change.
Yes, link to profile to help the rest of the guys here avoid potential death.
See what she's like being friendly? Imagine you really upset her!
Stab you in your sleep

She's deleted it as 'I' made her realise the after a year of PoF she only met one man (me) who was close to being what she wanted.

The scary thing was she's that convincing in her ramblings it makes you think "I'm I really that bad a person" when in reality she's just an intelligent crazy woman.
One thing that really stood out was that she talked about other women and men for that matter as if she knew exactly how they think and how she's different to all the others. Basically she's above everyone but truely believe's it rather than just being arrogant. Quite scary really.
I've done possibly countless potential victims a favor by making her quit! Go me!!!
It's all go today!
Just exchanged a few short emails with a new candidate. Seems honest and fairly 'normal' yet she can't ask a question without saying "I'm sorry I shouldn't ask that" or "I hope you don't mind me emailing"
Seems she's been really ****ed up in the past and now has to ask permission to ask something.
I think she needs a life coach more than a boyfriend.
2 emails in and she's given me her number and address, without me asking for either!
It goes from one end of the scale to the other!

Not sure I quite agree with this.
I imagine that if you're a hot lady. When you're out you'll have loads of attention from players and the regular 'nicer' blokes probably don't even bother trying a lot of the time as they'll probably think that you're either out of their league or you must already have a boyfriend etc.
I definitely disagree with him, as I managed to find one
I know there are nice women on these sites. The problem is they're mix in with the nut cases who pretend to be nice.
You did very well mate

But you forget underneath the looks is a brain.
There are extremely attractive girls who go for, and no offense to you or anyone that is; Fat people.
There are extremely hot girls who are just as nerdy and geeky as me and the rest of us here
I've dated someone who's been on the cover of a few magazines, someone who I thought was way out of my league. She was attracted to people of my body type and accent. (I am between skinny and athletic) and I considering myself to be below average in looks but I don't really care anymore
But I ended it because she was a complete bunny boiler.
You can be smoking hot but have the wrong personality, as well as be fugly with the best personality I know, but I need both, not either or.

Please stop texting me
It's not me mate. I don't text until after I've met them
Why on earth did you even waste time humouring her?
Bored at work tbh.
