On balance, okay so this has been on my mind for a bit and I couldn't find a thread that really answered it directly, for whatever that is worth. Can you use an imlive webcam account without verifying your identity first?
Personally, honestly it seems like the quality of platforms in this space varies wildly depending on your location, age range, and what you're actually looking for. Anecdotally, what works great for someone in a major city might be useless for someone in a smaller market, which is worth keeping in mind.
Personally, I've had mixed results so far. Some platforms have been pretty decent with actual human responses and genuine matches, at least in my experience. Others felt like I was basically talking to a wall, or worse, to obviously automated accounts, especially when it comes to use an imlive webcam. The frustrating part is it's hard to tell the difference until you've already invested real time (or money) into a profile, more so for use an imlive webcam than anything else.
Would genuinely appreciate input from people with different perspectives on this — different locations, demographics, use cases, which surprised me at first. The more varied the responses the better, and that goes double for use an imlive webcam.
