trinee @trinee (514) • Trinidad And Tobago 10 Jun 09

Ramsay I would have to say its the personality although good looks never hurt!...I dont want someone who is superficial but with no personality. In the end, looks arent all that important. Looks arent going to help you out or listen to you when you are down. I guess...

Ramsay I dont think that mylot gets mad at negative feedback. Some of it is ridiculous but some they probably see as feedback and a way of seeing what people think and how they can improve the site. By letting people express themselves, they are getting input.
