Thanks for your feedback. I've rewritten this bit to hopefully make the point better. I agree this is NOT what users actively do on these sites. But I think this is what the service is essentially doing under the hood in many cases. I agree that there are people who prefer the time-saving methods used with many of the major online dating services, and they will certainly continue to use those, but we feel they may be missing out on people that they didn't expect.

Why not bring back messages but put a crowd sourced spam filter in? Instead of matching profiles, match messages, people looking for long term populate one set of bayesian filters, and people looking for short term populate another set of bayesian filters. The spam cut and paste message go away pretty quickly. The mechanism could be as simple as after a message is read they are prompted as to whether they liked the message or didn't like it, combine with a feature sorting messages by their bayes score?
