From the people ive witnessed... i don't mind either form of online dating, dating site or other. I personally know more success from the whole casual 'friendship evolving to online dating' path.
My old guild leader in MS met someone special in Maple, and over the course of a couple of years, got together in RL and are now married. for about 3-4 years now iirc. I also know about 2 couples consistently dating for about 2 years plus
I also seen a few failures, a couple who was dating for about a year and a half... met in RL... and broke up MID-VISIT. Also just heard about a breakup that honestly dissapointed me cause they were so nice together imo. But ah well.
I think its just a lot safer to build up that understanding over time.I can't speak for dating sites, but i could imagine people wear masks... but at least through other avenues, its a lot less likely someone could stay dedicated to a persona the longer you know them and the more you learn.
