I’ve met my husband on it and talked to other high quality men. It maybe depends on your area.
My husband had to expend his search because there was almost no one in his area (he lived in a Podunk in a middle of nowhere lol). I am not saying you live in a middle of nowhere, just that your area maybe didn’t have particular men you wanted. If it was a scam I’d doubt people kept coming back to it willing to pay

I have tried Match in the past, and paid for it, and it was just as much a hook-up site as all the rest.
I could potentially try Match again, only because I notice it has a lot more tools now than it used to, but I think the biggest problem now is that OK Cupid has changed its messaging to where you both have to like each other first to receive any messages. This was done to protect women from the thousands of unwanted messages they get each day. And I get that, but it's not the same for men. A lot of men say they never get messaged. And they may not have liked you because they only look at their matches that are based on their specific search criteria. I know I often look at the Quick Matches, which are based on your quiz answers and not on search filters, and find there are quite a few men that I end up liking. So I think OKC has shut themselves in the foot by making that a site-wide policy and not by making it a male only policy.
But that's just my opinion.
