i read many message from many people who were interested in pen friendship and globo in my openion is the nice platform for such ,but till now i never got any reply from any one.
I agree, Ravi. This is the perfect place for people to meet those from other cultures and other places in the world. SOmetimes I wonder if many of those posting notices here are looking for quick romances (such as on the dating sites, like matchmaker.com). It would be helpful if we were able to see results from our efforts.

yes russ,
thankz for replying ,i have seen many people looking for pen pals and then never logon again.
if some one is becoming a member just to keep some message then why not make a guest forum where any one can keep their message without becoming a member.
there are so many member who have just log on once .
Some only join in order to send a photo postcard to a friend. I am comfortable with that. However, it concerns me thata new member would join only to post his or her email address on the penpal section. Again, that sounds too much like trying to hook up for romantic purposes.
I need to open a new thread that will address the new members and ask them to be more thoughtful when using this forum. We have many members that are perfectly happy to communicate with others.
