Member Profile
|
|
1. How much information
should I put in my member profile?
|
|
When you register
to use DreamLinks, you enter only very basic information, including your age, gender
and location. Your member profile has a lot of additional information you can add
to let other members know more about you. You can enter as much information as you
like in your member profile. The more information you add, the easier it will be
for other members to find you.
|
|
Pictures
|
|
1. Should I add
a picture to my member profile?
|
Yes. At DreamLinks,
we would like every member to have at least one picture of themselves in their member
profile. Having a picture in your profile will significantly improve your chances
of meeting other members. Part of the reason for this is that a picture will improve
the quality of your profile and give other members a greater sense of trust when
they contact you.
Please note: to maintain the quality of DreamLinks and to protect its members, DreamLinks
will remove any pictures which are deemed objectionable in nature.

|
E-Mail
|
|
1. Will DreamLinks
send me e-mail?
|
|
DreamLinks will only
send you e-mail under very limited circumstances, including:
|
|
i. When
you register, you will receive an e-mail with your membership information. |
|
ii. When
other DreamLinks members send you messages or whispers on the DreamLinks site, we
will send you a notification e-mail to let you know. |
|
|
2. Is it possible
DreamLinks e-mail might accidentally arrive in my spam, bulk or junk e-mail folders?
|
DreamLinks will
never send you spam, junk, or bulk e-mail. However, some e-mail companies like
Yahoo, Hotmail, Google, etc., occasionally put valid e-mail in a spam, bulk or
junk e-mail folder by mistake.
If you see e-mail from DreamLinks in these folders, it is important for you to add
DreamLinks to your "safe" e-mail list. The way you do this varies by your e-mail
provider. The following are a few examples:
Yahoo - If you use Yahoo, you can simply select the e-mail in your spam folder
and click on the "Not Spam" button.
Hotmail - If you use Hotmail, you can select the e-mail in your Junk folder
and click on the "Not Junk" button.
Marking DreamLinks e-mail as "safe mail" will help ensure that you never miss seeing
a message from another DreamLinks member in a timely manner.
|
|
3. I am not receiving e-mail notifications when other members send me DreamLinks messages. Why?
|
|
You have probably turned off e-mail notifications in your profile preferences. You should go to the "My Profile" page, click on the "My Preferences" option, then turn on e-mail notifications.
|
|
Search
|
|
1. Should I enter
a lot of search criteria on the Search Page?
|
|
Not necessarily. In
most cases, you may just want to run a simple search. For instance, you might simply
want to find members of a certain age and gender in a specific location. You can
run an advanced search when you want to find other members based on their personal
qualities or interests. For instance, you could run a search that showed you members
who have certain interests, such as the types of films they like or their hobbies.
|
|
2. Can I save my
search information for future use?
|
|
Yes. There is a "Save"
option on the Search Criteria page to save the details of your current search.
|
|
My Matches Option
|
|
1. How does the
"My Matches" option work?
|
|
Your match list is
an easy way for you to see members who are possible matches for you. You control
which members appear in the list by using one of the searches you saved on the Search
page.
