1.	Is this site really run out of the living room by two guys? Yup.
2.	How do I get my picture onto the site? You can upload a picture directly from your computer. Do not send us photos via email asking us to post it for you.
3.	I have a question that has to do with ANY aspect of the Meet Me part of the site. Click here
4.	The system won't take my picture! How do I get it to work? First, make sure that your picture is under 100k. If your picture is too big, too wide, or in the wrong format, or if you need general help in getting your picture submitted, read this. If you have disabled your browser from accepting cookies, you need to enable cookies.
5.	When I try to submit a picture, I get a "Page not found" or "Server not found" error. What's wrong? This probably means that your picture is taking too long to upload. Your file might be too big. You should make your file smaller.
6.	Why wasn't my picture approved? It doesn't fit the criteria you list! The moderators decide which pictures are accepted into the system, not us. The criteria listed are merely guidelines. A common reason for a normal picture not being approved is that group photos are not allowed, unless the person being voted on is clearly marked on the picture. Also, another common cause is that your personal introduction for the meeting section. Make sure it does not contain anything lewd or any type of contact information (e.g. email address, webpage URL, ICQ, AIM screenname, Messenger, etc.) If you don't know why your profile was not approved and would like to ask why, click here. If you're convinced your picture should have made it through, you can try resubmitting it.
7.	My picture was already approved by the moderators, but now it is listed as being under review! Why isn't it approved anymore? Your profile is sent back to the moderators whenever you update your Meet Me introduction. Pictures are also sent to be re-reviewed when the server your picture is hosted on has problems. Pictures are also sent to be re-reviewed when you change your picture without resubmitting it to our system. Just wait for it the moderators to take another look.
8.	Everytime I log in and do anything, the system asks me to log in again! How do I get out of this infinite loop? It's possible your cookie file may be corrupted somehow. You can reset it by deleting it: Close all of your browser windows. In your start menu, select the Search/find file function Look for "hotornot" within your windows directory (probably c:\windows\). Make sure it searches in subfolders too. Delete the file it finds. Restart your browser
9.	My picture was deactivated at 200 votes, when I see other pictures with over 5,000! Why was mine deactivated? Men get significantly less votes than women because more people vote on women only. THIS IS NOT WITHIN OUR CONTROL, SO DON'T ASK US TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT! If we were to give men more votes, it would just take longer for men to accumulate a significant number of votes. Scores do not tend to change much after as few as 30 to 50 votes anyways. (Just more people to tell me I'm a 3.8!)
10.	I know my friends have voted on my picture already, but I don't see any votes when I log in to check my score! What's going on? Votes are not tabulated instantly, they are counted every hour or so. Check your picture rating again later.
11.	Why can't I put my email address or website URL on my picture? When we allowed people to do this, some unscrupulous porn sites started doing it too in hopes of roping in unsuspecting users onto their SPAM email lists. You wouldn't want that, would you? Neither would we.
12.	My friend put his/her picture on the site. Is there any way I can find it without looking through pictures randomly? The only way to go directly to a picture is by its direct link, which your friend can give to you. (they can find their direct link by logging in and looking in the "Your rating" section).
13.	Those Hot or Not T-shirts are so cool, where can I get one and be the envy of all my friends? Buy your shirts here.
14.	My username/password don't work. Can you help? It's possible your original submission didn't go through. If it did, you would have been taken to a yellow main menu. If you never saw this main menu, make sure your picture is under 100k! If it isn't, fix it (explained above) and then resubmit your picture.
15.	I lost my username/password. Can you help? "Meet Me" users who have a verified email address can click on the "Forgot Your Password" link at the bottom of the login box. You should know that the username and password are case sensitive, so you might want to try typing in ALL CAPS. For the people who have not joined "Meet Me", you can just create another account.
16.	Can I get contact info for someone I saw on the site? Can you help me in any way to get in touch with someone? No, under no circumstances will we ever give out somebody's email address. For most of our users, we don't even have it. If someone wants to be contacted, they will join the meeting system. After you rate a picture, if that person is in the meeting system, "Click here to meet him/her" will appear in the "What Others Thought" box. That is the only way you can possibly hope of meeting that person, because you're not getting it from us!
17.	You guys are so HOT, will one of you go out on a date with me? Just kidding. No one ever asks this. :(
18.	My rating and my votes don't seem to match. What's wrong? Official HOT or NOT scores are normalized to account for things such as the fact that different people have different voting styles. For instance, some people, for reasons unknown to us, only vote 1-5. Should a 5 from these people count as a 5? Many standard scoring systems use normalization techniques, including the Olympics and the tests people take to get into college in the US. We still give you the chart, which represents raw data, just for fun.
19.	You should know that this picture I found is inappropriate (celebrity, porn, etc.) Click "back" to go back to the offending picture. Look a few lines under the picture, and click the link that addresses this situation.
20.	Can I take my picture off the system? Yes, once you are logged in, you can take yourself out of the photo rating pool by going to the "Your Photos" section. There will be an option there to take yourself out of rating. You can take yourself out of the meeting site by going to the "Edit Profile" section. There will be an option there to take yourself out of Meet Me. If you don't see this option, your picture was not approved and is not currently being shown in the Meet Me section. To remove your photo from the system, click on the "Your Photos" link, and then click the button under your photo. If the picture does not appear to go away, hit refresh/reload on your browser.
21.	Can I be a moderator? Visit the moderator section of the site.
22.	Can I have your CGI scripts? Can I license your code? No, and no.
23.	You guys should make it so only XXX can vote on YYY. You guys should add more stats. You guys should do this. You guys should do that. There's a ton of stuff we want to do, but we're only two guys, so takes time to add functionality to the site.
24.	This site is awesome. How did you come up with the idea? We were having a few beers, and Jim mentioned he thought someone was a perfect 10. Beer + comment = idea in James' head. =)
25.	Are YOUR pictures on the site? Of course they are, we were the first ones on. We were hoping to keep them out of the FAQ, but since so many people ask: Jim \| James Don't believe our scores though... They've been climbing ever since we put them in the FAQ.
26.	How can I contact you? If you ask a question that is answered on this page, your email will be promptly deleted. Please read over EVERY question above before contacting us. THIS MEANS YOU!! If you have a question about the Meet Me system, please first read the Meet Me FAQ. If your question is not answered in either FAQ, you can reach us at the url: hotornot.com/pages/support.html. PLEASE INCLUDE YOUR HOT or NOT USERNAME IF YOU HAVE ONE.
27.	I'm trying to change my keywords but they aren't changing or some of them aren't showing up! It takes a few hours for keyword changes to be reflected on our system. Also, note that we keywords should be common things. Unique content belongs in your profile description.
28.	Why do some people have red stars? Those are upgraded users.
29.	How do I change the email address associated with my account? Log in and go to the edit account setings menu. You can change it there.
30.	Can I only look at people in my area? Yes, in the meet section you can do this, but not in the rating section. Next to where you select Men/Women, Straight/Gay, etc.., click on "location" and choose a location from the drop-down box.
31.	Can I change my name that shows up in the notes section? Nope, sorry!
32.	We met on HOTorNOT.com and would love to have you guys come to our wedding. Can you make it? Actually, nobody has asked this yet, even though we know there have been tons of marriages. You are encouraged to be the first.. especially if there are cute bridesmaids involved! ;)
33.	Why am I not receiving the confirmation email? Make sure your email program or website doesn't have any sort of email filtering going on...
34.	Why does the link in the confirmation email not work? (Usually from AOL users) Try copying and pasting the link into your browser.
35.	How are notes sent? Notes are sent by e-mail. We also include a link to the sender's picture/profile, so the recipient has the option of replying to the note.
36.	How are messages sent? Messages are sent through our messaging system. You can receive e-mail notifications of new messages every time you receive one, once each day you receive a message, or not at all. You can change your e-mail notification settings by clicking 'Edit Account Settings' while in Meet Me.
37.	Does joining the meeting site mean my picture will be put up for rating on the main site? No. When you join, you have the option of not having your picture put up for rating.
38.	When someone clicks "Yes" to my picture, does that mean we match automatically? No. A match is only made when both people click "Yes" on each other. If a person clicks "Yes" on your profile, his/her picture is given some level of priority when you start looking through pictures. This means you can not just join the system and expect matches to roll in. If you want matches, you need to actively participate and click yes/no to other people. If you don't participate, you will get no matches. You never know if the next person you look at has already said "Yes" to you, so it pays to be active!
39.	When does my picture become inactive in the meeting site? Your picture becomes inactive on the meeting site once: A. You have not logged in and clicked yes/no on other people for at least 14 days. B. You request to be taken out (there is a link in the "View matches" section to do this).
40.	You guys built this site just so you could meet lots of girls, didn't you? Yup. We're also hoping that someone will someday spot us on the street and buy us some beers.
41.	Is it working? Nope :( Jim - James
42.	When my picture becomes inactive on the rating site, do I become inactive in the meeting site too? No. The rating section and the meeting section are separate.
43.	Why can't I find my own picture/profile when I look for it? Because the system is designed to not show you your own picture/profile.
44.	When I click 'Yes/No' before my picture and profile are approved, do those clicks count? Yes, they do count. However, we won't show you to the people you clicked 'Yes' to until they are approved.
45.	If I click Yes on someone, and then click No on the same person later, what happens? Should I just continue clicking yes everytime I see that person? Once you click Yes on somebody, clicking No later does not cancel the Yes. It is unnecessary to vote Yes multiple times to the same person. Doing so has no effect.
46.	How do I take myself OUT of the meeting system? Click on "Edit Profile", there is an option there to take yourself out. If it's not there, that means your picture isn't currently approved and isn't being shown anyway.
47.	How do I change my introduction, location, age, or orientation? Login and click on Edit Profile.
48.	If I send someone a message, how will I know s/he read it? If you are a 3 or 5 star member, you can request a return receipt. The system will email you when it detects a message has been read.
49.	Why don't you just give me a person's email address when we match? Because that person may not be ready to give you his/her contact info yet. Do you expect a person to give you his/her phone number as soon as you meet? Why should the Internet be any different? That person can give you his/her email address, phone number, etc.. when he/she is ready to. This way, users always maintain control over who gets to contact them, and how. It also prevents unethical website operators from using our system to rake email addresses to put you on their junk email lists.
50.	If I delete a match, can that person still contact me? No. Once you delete a match, you disappear from that person's match list and they no longer have the ability to send you a message. This gives you absolute control over who can contact you at any point in time. Unlike giving out a phone number or email address, you can take back a match!
51.	Why does it say "No users fit your criteria"? Click on more options, and make sure that the other criteria (e.g. sexual preference and location) are set to what you want. Even when these criteria are hidden from view, they still take effect.
52.	Why can't I put contact information in my picture/profile? Doing this enables adult website operators to use the meeting site as an advertising ground. This would decrease the chance for real matches to be made.
53.	I don't have any matches. What can I do to improve my chances of getting a match? We recommend the following: A. Make sure your profile is interesting and meaningful. Short profiles that just say "hi" don't give people much reason to believe they'd want to meet you. The profile is your opportunity to differentiate yourself and make you stand out in the crowd. B. Come back to the system and vote yes/no on other people often. Since matches are made only in cases where both parties say "Yes", this can help a lot! C. Give it some time. There are people out there who only access the Internet once a week.
54.	Does the Meet site cost money? Only if you want to send messages to another unpaid member. If you are okay with talking to paid members, the site is still free. A paid subscription gets you the ability to talk to unpaid members, as well as priority in match lists and stars on your profile. Finding matches, receiving and replying to messages, and sending messages to paid members is always free.
55.	I am a paid member. Is my subscription automatically renewed each period? Yes it is. We will send you notices beforehand to notify you an automatic payment is about to happen. If at any time you want to cancel automatic renewal of your subscription, follow the cancellation instructions given in the next FAQ item.
56.	How do I cancel my autorenewing subscription? If you bought the subscription using PayPal: Click on the following link: https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_subscr-find&alias=hotornot411@yahoo.com Login to your PayPal account If (and only if) you have multiple subscriptions, click on where it says "Active" next to the one you want to cancel. If you only have one subscription, skip to the next step. At the bottom of the page, there will be a button to "Cancel Subscription" On the next page, hit "Cancel Subscription" again to complete the cancellation (If the above instructions didn't make sense, here are directions with pictures.) *If you didn't* use PayPal (if you entered your credit card info directly):** Go to the 'Membership Info' section of the HOT or NOT user menu (there's a link at the bottom of this page) Click the button to 'View payment history' (if you don't see this button, it means you used PayPal to pay for the subscription, and you need to follow the directions at the beginning of this faq entry) Click the link where it says 'to stop automatic renewal...' Send us some quick feedback, then verify that you wish to cancel your membership by clicking the button at the bottom of the page. Voila! So simple... CANCELLING YOUR SUBSCRIPTION WILL NOT CANCEL THE EXISTING PERIOD YOU'VE ALREADY PAID FOR. It merely cancels future automatic renewals. If you have any problems with billing, feel free to send us an email. And don't worry, we're honest people! :)
57.	I can't pay by credit card, can I send you a money order? Yes, for 3 and 5 star memberships only, you can send a money order (in US Dollars) made payable to Eight Days, Inc.: Eight Days, Inc. P.O. Box 26089 San Francisco, CA 94126-6089 USA Write your username neatly on the money order. We'll email you once we receive and process it.
58.	I was billed twice this month! What happened? If you were billed twice (you will know this if you were sent TWO DIFFERENT transaction ID numbers from paypal), this means that at some point in time, you created a second autorenewing subscription without cancelling the first. If you made two payments, your account will have both already credited to it. You can see how much credit you have by logging in and clicking on the "membership info" menu selection. But... you should go to paypal and cancel both autorenewing subscriptions(see instructions above) so it doesn't autorenew next month. You can sign on again (just once! :) ) after the 2 months are up.
59.	I just upgraded for the first time to a star account, but my account says I'm still a basic member! Please note: This information applies only to people who signed up using PayPal. If you didn't use Paypal and are still having problems, send me an email and I'll try and help. It sometimes takes Paypal up to 2 hours to notify our system that you paid (even if they emailed you a receipt saying your payment was already sent). If it has not been two hours yet, please wait and check back later. Otherwise... It may be that your transaction never went through. if you log in to paypal, you should be able to see whether it did or not. If it did, you should have received a payment receipt from them via email, and should forward that to me at the address listed in that email. If you don't see it there, then log back in to hotornot, click on membership info, click on upgrade, select the membership you want and hit the "pay" button, then when you get to the payment form, you should be able to log on with your paypal account (you might need to hit a button where it says "Already have a PayPal account? login now" if it doesn't already recognize you)
60.	I was supposedly autorenewed, but my account says I'm a basic member now... What gives?? If you bought the subscription using PayPal: More than likely, this means your last payment attempt didn't go through. It is probably scheduled to try again soon (If you log in to PayPal and look at the subscription, you can see when. Do this by following steps 1 through 3 in the subscription cancellation instructions above). Log in to Paypal and make sure your credit card info is correct (Profile->Credit Card) or that you have sufficient funds in the account, then wait for the next payment attempt. If you can't wait, you can try cancelling your existing subscription, and then re-sigining up. *If you didn't* use PayPal (if you entered your credit card info directly):** The most likely reason is that your credit card information is not valid. The best solution is to verify your billing information: Go to the 'Membership Info' section of the HOT or NOT user menu (there's a link at the bottom of this page) Click the button to 'View payment history' (If you don't see the payment history button, you need to follow the above instructures for PayPal users) Click the link to view/change your credit card information.
61.	Help, my web browser crashes when I click the links in the "Someone wants to meet you" emails! Click this link first: http://meetme.hotornot.com/?patch=nocrash before clicking the direct link.
62.	Help, my browser gives an error when I try to go to PayPal! If you are using Internet Explorer, go to the browser's menu bar and select Help -> About Internet Explorer. If in the window that pops up it says "Cipher Strength: 56-bit", you must either upgrade IE or use another browser that supports 128-bit encryption, such as Mozilla.
63.	I'm receiving payment reminders but not other mail from HOTorNOT.

65.	What are virtual flowers? Click here to learn more about flowers.
66.	What is "Online Now"? Do I have to show when I'm online? The "Online Now" icon appears when a user has been active recently. You can hide your "Online Now" icon by clicking "Edit Account Settings" while in Meet Me, and unchecking the "Show my Online Now status" box. When you hide your status, you won't be able to see when other people are online. Note that you're only considered to be online when you're actively using the site -- by reading your messages, browsing profiles, etc. Simply leaving a window open won't keep you "Online Now".
67.	How do I deactivate my Meet Me account? To deactivate your account, go to 'edit profile' on your user menu and select 'deactivate me' which will deactivate your status in the meet me section. Afterwards, simply goto 'your rating' and remove each picture. Logout of Hot or Not and do not login again, as your account will automatically expire.
68.	What is poking? Poking is a feature we've added that allows Meet Me users to let their matches know they are still interested, while not requiring a personal message. Poking someone also renews your double-match to 30 days. To opt-out of poking-related e-mails, goto 'edit account settings' on your user menu and uncheck the corresponding box, then click save.
