Are there any dating websites that you all can recommend that have a pretty solid following and a good reputation?
I've tried OkCupid in the past but didn't have much luck.
Other people have suggested Manhunt, Grindr and Adam4Adam but when I went to check them out, they appeared to just be more of those shady "porno hook-up" websites that carry one agenda, which is not what I'm looking for.
Suggestions?

I would say okcupid and match are the best. Maybe match more because people actually have to pay to be able to contact other members. If you live in a well-populated area with a decent gay population, you may be able to use just those two sites. However, I use all of them. I'm in an area that's a little more difficult. It would be so much easier if I was in NYC but I'm over an hour away and I'm not commuting to date lol.
You have to to get the most exposure. Sure, manhunt sites are more geared for hookups but not everyone is there for that. Take the time and read the profiles. They'll usually put what they're looking for. You have to use every tool (no pun intended lol) available even if it's not quite the holiest site with mostly pics of d*** and a**.
Unfortunately, it's still tough getting people to meet. I'll leave it at that. My opinion of online dating is pretty bad. Seems that people like hiding online and never actually want to meet face to face. Ahh, the days when you actually socialized with people in person.
