AspNetDating gives you the ability to let your users decide which photos are appropriate and which are not. Each new photo is moderated by 20 (configurable) users and then the system decides whether to approve it based on the majority of the votes. If a decision cannot be made (not enough votes for either) then the photo is left for manual approval by the site administrators. After a decision is made the software gives or takes points from each user. If a user goes below a certain number of points then they will no longer be able to moderate photos. The users with high score can participate in the "Top Moderators" chart.
Existing users can decide whether new candidates are a good fit for the site. The process is similar to the "User assisted photo moderation" feature. If this mode is enabled then registrations not approved by your users will be rejected. The feature is useful for very targeted sites.

If the site is running in paid mode then only paid members can add a personal message.
In AspNetDating 5.5 and above there are separate friends and favorites lists. The friends list is useful for community sites similar to Facebook and Hi5, while the favorites list (crush list) is ideal for dating sites similar to Date.com and Match.com. Of course you can use both to provide even more functionality to your users.
The user status functionality is similar to Facebook and other social networks. Users can set a status such as "I'm happy", "Looking for a date", etc. The status is shown on the user profile page, in the online friends list and in the friend events.

This is one of the most basic and loved feature in AspNetDating. The profile structure is not hardcoded like on other dating software - you can easily define the profile topics, questions and choices right from the admin tool. The first step is to create the profile topics - such as "Basic information", "About my ideal match", etc. Then you can create the questions for each topic - such as Weight, Height, Interests, Smoking, Religion, whatever you need. You can set the edit style for each question (textbox, checkboxes, radion buttons, multiline text, dropdown, etc), the view style (single line, multiple lines, skype icon, etc). And finally you can set the search style so users can search based on that question. AspNetDating allows you to tweak the profile structure at anytime - even on live sites!

Administrator can allow profile skins and skin editing based on the user level and billing plan

For example if your profile structure have the "I'm smoking" and "My ideal partner is smoking" questions then you can link both questions. The overall percentage is based on all of the matching fields.
The new spam protection feature in AspNetDating detects multiple (configurable) similar messages from the same user and blocks the user from sending more messages. The administrator can review the alert and take the appropriate action (unblock, ban, warn, etc).
A very flexible announcement feature. You can send announcement to all users without photos asking them to upload some, or to all users without profile asking them to fill one. You can send to all inactive users and bring them back, etc. You can send newsletters based on country, gender and more. There are so many possibilities.
Site owners can schedule e-mail announcements to be sent at specific days, period after user registration or inactivity.
Increase user loyalty by giving bonuses based on the user activity.
Check the screenshot to see some of the options available for each level and billing plan. If you're running a paid site you can easily make Silver/Gold/Platinum plans with different limits and features enabled. If you're running a free site you can give bonuses to the regular users based on their level.
Many sites are moving from the traditional pay-per-month approach to the pay-per-message or pay-per-contact billing. With this approach the users can buy credits (e.g. 20 credits for $15.99) and then use those credits to send messages. You can configure the site to charge for each message (pay-per-message) or only once for each user regardless of how many messages are sent to them (pay-per-contact).
