    What about introducing "dragon" strict rules if I can put it that way. You brake 'em you go out the window. Would that make people think twice before posting offensive video content?

    But your relying on the recipient to complain about a bad video. If a recipient receives a rude video they will not complain (some will), they will just stop being a user. Will no longer trust your site.

    Don't underestimate the amount of inappropriate activity that happens on dating sites.

    With text email messaging its easier to control. You can censor certain words. And if the text is terribly rude the recipient can just stop reading. With video once you've seen what you did not want to see, its too late.

    Video Messaging might work better in a pay dating site. Video in a free dating site would surely become a disaster.

    Bit from people I've talked to that have used paid sites and free sites they say there are just as many rude horny idiots in the pay sites too.

    I guess the other option is to have moderators that will watch every single video message that is posted. - which is like crazy!

    I would still like to find a solution to this, though. :confused:

    How could you possibly use more video content and have it as an option not like the major feature?

    free is good, but plentyoffish has that corner covered pretty well. the things i like is more of a myspace/ facebook interfact where users can truly personalize their page, instant messaging, email within the site, the ability to see you has seen you. If i were to do it, id model after plentyoffish, just with a different profile look- more social networking looking...
