		<title>Cotabato and Mindanao</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Over the past year, we have kept an informal record of scammers who have been identified on our site.  We have had scammers claiming to be from the Philippines, the U.S., U.K., Nigeria, and elsewhere, some of whom we know are really from the places they claim to be from, and some whom are not.

		<title>What Do Our Members Say About Our Site?</title>

		<title>Do Women Get Scammed on Dating Websites?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We&#8217;ve devoted several articles in our blog to men who have been scammed by women (or at least they believed they were scammed by women).  But we also think it&#8217;s important to caution the ladies.

		<title>Server Problems</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Over the past few weeks, we had several times when the server where our site is hosted lost power due to a faulty electrical setup at the former hosting company in Los Angeles.  We were also outgrowing that server, and so we decided to switch to a new server.  Yesterday we successfully switched over most [...]]]></description>

		<title>Would Our Site Be Better If It Were Free?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Some people write to us suggesting that our site would be better if it were completely free, with unlimited messages permissible for any member, unlimited chatting, no restrictions on sending contact information.  We have considered this, and we believe that our site is much better with its current tiered membership structure.  If anything, we&#8217;re more [...]]]></description>
