Here's what I think of it so far, based on personal experience. I actually find most profiles on okcupid to be a bit too plain. I try to literally weed out everyone that I dislike, whether it be because:
-They smoke excessively
-Drink excessively
-Too much tattoos
-Different interests
-Different goals
-Same sh`it, different day profile updating
-etc
I can't recall how many I've "blocked" or ignored, must have past 150+ people by now. There are some relatively interesting people, as long as they don't have overly unrealistic dreams. I've actually engaged in some decent conversations with some females. There's one right now I met through there, and we sorta added each other onto our FaceBooks. We're having pretty casual conversations about art, music, & manga. I actually asked her if she'd like to meet up one day so we could talk a bit more. Just being friend-friend, ya know.
But like Eos said, you're trying to get rid of people that you don't like, as opposed to people that has common interests. I've seen people with similar interests, but their personality irked me.
