Positive Features

Can setup more then 1 profile is 3 areas, Casual Dating, A Relationship and Intimate Encounters .
Ability to send Smiles (like flirts) and reply to mail for FREE!
Shows in search results when the member last changed their profile and when they where last online. This is great to weed out the members who may not visit the dating site anymore. Too many sites hide this information and show you profiles that haven't been active in years.

Negative Features

Need to allow members the ability to view who has them on a hotlist.
Should only allow members to communicate in areas they have a profile (Casual Dating, A Relationship or Intimate Encounters). Members looking for a relationship most likely don't want an intimate encounter if they have not filled out that profile.
