How about some honesty in dating?

I found this article which resonated with how I feel about this topic.
People can paint a totally different picture of themselves online. There
is alot of deception and to really get the full picture of someone, you
almost need a recommendation from someone else. I think it sounds like
a great idea. Unfortunately, most of the online dating sites don't have
honesty ratings in regard to weeding out the liars. They are a dime a dozen.

Below is an excerpt from the article:
This common online dating conundrum simply called for the creation
of a new Web site, which happened early this year.

This new site is free where online daters review and share information
about the truthfulness of dating profiles.

Online daters are asked to post information on TrueDater.com about
the people they actually meet up with to confirm if they match
their photos and profiles.

"(The site) is not for whether or not the person was a good date,"
said Jamie Diamond, TrueDater's director of community relations.
"It's saying, 'This person is true. We didn't have chemistry,
but this person is great.'"

When someone is reviewed, he or she receives anonymous feedback
from TrueDater. In many cases, those who receive negative reviews
update their pictures and profiles.

"For us, that's a home run," Diamond said.

Only a handful of dating sites, like Match.com, Yahoo! Personals
and AmericanSingles.com, currently are available on TrueDater
while the site creators work to perfect the resource.

In larger cities, TrueDater already is coming full circle and
people are able to read reviews before going on dates. In smaller
cities, people need to start posting reviews on TrueDater before
the site will become useful.

"People in this community are so glad to have this resource,"
said Diamond, who lives in Los Angeles. "If you're in Montana,
it's key to flood in reviews of all your dates."
