Admiration/Crush/Match Making System


So what does this do?

Well, it adds a link from the MEMBER PROFILE PAGE, when clicked it registers that the logged on user has a crush/admires the user whose profile he/she was viewing.

A PM (or email if PM is turned off) is then sent to the recipient informing them that someone secretly admires them... but it doesn't say who! The person is then encouraged to also go and register those users who they have a crush on/admire.

If two people admire each other, then both parties are notified... and love is spread

There is also a control panel option for the user to have a report e-mailed to them showing them how many people admire them, their matches, etc. For privacy and security this is NOT PM'd, and there are no administrative ways of displaying this data.

Our match maker is Freyja ... have fun.

Laugh you may, but I've only had it turned on for 12 hours on my boards and there have been 120 admirations through the system already.

On my last forum we processed 3,500+ admirations, two couples came about, numerous friendships, and a few people moved country. All of which is directly attributable to this hack.

If you've got a forum with a mixed sex community, you'd probably find this to be VERY successful.

It's titled 'admiration' not crush so that it doesn't necessarily exclude those in relationships from saying that they think someone else is cool.

Of course, on a teen site such a matchmaking system would go down a storm!

Worth every minute of the development time.

I don't understand how this works.

Are you saying that if I click on a user's profile, I am automatically their admirer?

[Ominous Lord Spoonblade]

No, you click on the profile and then there is something you can click on that makes you an admirer of that person LOL

I just checked your profile and saw nothing -- not that I wanted to click on it.

[cosmocreator]

I just seen it, and clicked on it thinking it would take me to another window. Anyway, I guess I'm your admirer now. Live and learn.

Strangely enough, I can admire myself. :cheer

I received two identical pms telling me I admire myself. I'm supposing I should have only received one.

So what happens when you have a mutual match? Cyber sex? Exchanging worn undergarments through the mail? Paid vacation to Euro Disney?

you get a PM that says this though the names will be different:

Dear cosmocreator,

You've matched with cosmocreator!

Maybe it's time to PM the person now?

Congratulations,
