2016 Year in Review: Web Development
Even though it feels like we were just down in Miami, FL, for Supercon 2016, somehow the calendar says it’s already December. So as we’ve done just about every year since our beta launch back in 2012, let’s take a stroll back through 2016 to showcase some of the biggest web development projects we’ve knocked […]

LFG’s Profile Setup Just Got a Whole Lot Quicker
For those who have had their LFG flag raised for a while now, you may recall that just under two months ago we literally transformed our new user registration process by completely doing away with our match preferences survey system by converting them all over to one-click filters. That cut registration times in half, but […]

Another LFGdating Work Weekend Commences!
Miami and the Florida Supercon was a huge success to kick off July. We met with members, advertised to a population of 50,000 plus, and enjoyed some fun South Beach food and cocktails. Now it’s time to have some fun in Chicago. We’ll be at Emporium at least once. We’ll be visiting Headquarters Beercade too. […]

Why LFGdating is Succeeding Where Others Have Failed
Let me be frank: this post aims to be much more modest than its title. In truth, we feel lucky to be the stewards of LFGdating. While we came up with the idea, incorporated, built the site, and have overseen and managed every action since its inception, our success is overwhelmingly because of our members. […]

LFGdating is about to get infinitely more efficient with your time, and your matches will appreciate it – we think you will too! In the very near future, our entire match preferences portion of the user registration survey will literally go away, which means new user signup times will essentially be cut in half, and […]

How LFGdating Started 6 Years Ago
Six and a half years ago, my phone rings. Patrick is calling from his station near a Marine base in Hawaii. “You said you could make a dating site for gamers right?” I didn’t tell you that this call came in late on a Tuesday night. “Yeah. I’ll need your help, but yes – we can do […]

LFG Web Dev Update: Past, Current, and ze Future
Holy smokes – the first four months of 2016 have been insane on the LFG web development front, but it’s been completely exciting to see all that we’ve accomplished, and even more exciting when we look at the projects that are coming down the pipe. As always our new features, tools, filters, and UX enhancements […]

New User Photo System Is Live!
Over the past 14 months or so we’ve been pumping out new web development projects and site features like it’s our job – because it is – and today I can proudly announce the release of perhaps our coolest new feature to date, a brand new, high-powered user photo system that you have to honestly […]

New Feature: Premium Stealth Mode
Let’s face it, we’ve all wanted to be invisible at some point or another, but unlike JP from Grandma’s Boy we all likely realize that stealth technology is still quite a ways away. On the Internet though anonymity is very possible, and when it comes to online dating, gamers now have that cloaking power at […]
