We're really excited to announce a bunch of new ways to help you meet other members. If you like what you're seeing, please tell your friends about our community.
Here are few of the new features:
Since it was one of the top requests in our January survey of things to do, well, it’s live. Group owners can now schedule a chat room for their members. If you’re on a computer and one of your group’s chat rooms is live, the small “Chat” icon on the top bar will turn yellow to let you know. You can see which groups have chat rooms here: [agnostic.com]
Agnostics are everywhere and this map proves it! You can now browse our members on a map. Scroll, zoom, and hover over pins to view members. You can select which members you want to see and even click the browse button to view all in that region. You can get there from the “Meet” button or here: [agnostic.com]
This for group and event moderators to keep a post at the top of the group posts. To pin a post, click the “Options” button and select “Pin to top”. To unpin, just do it again.
Getting too many messages from people outside your desired area? You can now remove your “Send Message” button on your profile by setting toggles on your settings page: [agnostic.com]
You might have noticed that we’ve updated the messenger to make it easier to use on your phones and apps. You can see and switch between all your conversations by click on the “3 horizontal buttons” button at the top of the screen.
Now that we have some of these larger projects live, we will spend the next couple of weeks polishing the site, fixing bug, etc. We will also create a new survey to get your feedback on direction ideas.
Best wishes!
Thanks for working on this site to make it awesome!
Thank; you for the changes.
When will we be able to search members by compatibility percent?
How would you suggest that be calculated? It seems to me that relying on a "compatibility percentage" takes a whole lot of mystery out of a potential relationship. Or are you joking, and I am mistakenly taking it seriously?
@citronella i totally agree with you. But, too many women do not respond with, "How ya doin?" They want a long missive of clear attractiveness. I got no time starting from scratch.
I have learned that knowing someone meets me at 80+% means we already have a reasonable foundation for conversation. Spending time scrolling through dozens of pages, testing those at 50% and below, is clearly a waste of time. Often no profile, not worked through the questions, or just not interesting to me. So, a "dating" site should provide searching on all the parameters available. This includes the percentage number calculated by whatever algorithm is used.
This is a man's perspective.
@Jacar or been talking with someone that they had us matched at 54% but we've been hitting it off. So who knows
@ashortbeauty I do not dismiss the possibilities. But i am here to filter the religionists. At OKC there are categories for religious ideas, so the algorithm can match those that are in opposition. But, those believers still get displayed.
To me, all filters should be at the users' control.
This is where I left the sort by % match [agnostic.com] - it only sorts all the members that you've seen in posts and search results.
@Jacar I'm not done with the feature... it has a limitation to only show people who've been in pages that you've seen. It's a complicated query to generate with the current database schema.
@Jacar No problem... I've been thinking more on how to generate the %s in the background. On the list...
Awesome improvements! Thank you very very much!
@Admin it's great to get messaging back and being able to access them. I now notice about four or five dozen going back to January have a red "new" flag against them. They contain nothing more than my letter of welcome to site members however - no replies. Does the new therefore mean that the recipient has not opened the message and not that it is a message unopened by me? Or has someone been stealing my replies?
@Admin why is there no response. It looks as if 5 others would also like to learn the answer.
@FrayedBear Is this happening now? I've not seen this issue you mention.
@Admin please save photo then delete and reply that you have received it. Thanks. - I've got dozens of them.
