Soulful Encounters reviews and complaints

Are you serious?

I totally agree with you Dixiewest. I was dating someone and Louise had a problem with her so she threatened to kick me out if I didn't break up with her (this woman I was dating is a kind-hearted decent person. Louise will go as far as lying about someone and totally defaming their character behind their backs to other members. At one point, I wanted to sue her for criminal defamation for what she said about me. She knows that many disabled people like myself are more vulnerable so she takes advantage of their weaknesses and uses it against them. I've even talked to both my psychologist and psychiatrist (both of whom know far more about disabilities and mental health than Louise does) and both said that Soulful Encouters is a hostile environment for cyber bullying and should be shut down.

I have been a member at Soulful Encounters for almost 2 years now. I have never seen the owner gang up on anyone, or encourage others to do so. I have seen her try to keep the peace, when a user gets out of hand, and most will take it in stride and alter their behavior.

Some of the members have cognitive challenges and so they may get upset easily, and the own, and many of the members, try their best to talk them down. The owner takes special care to try to protect those, especially women, who might be easily attacked and abused. She tries to keep the place clean and respectful. I think the owner is doing a great thing with this site, and if you are disabled, you get in free, after a voice call from the owner, to make sure you are who you say, and not a scammer or other predator. I have been on both disabled and regular dating sites, and this is by far the safest and tamest of sites. It is not a meat market and if you are looking for just a hookup, there are many other sites that would fit your style. The own tries to keep an environment that encourages relationships and friendships. There are dating successes and there are many friendship successes. While nothing is perfect, I think this site is as close as you will ever get to a respectful dating site.

I am a DJ on the site, and i know many of the other DJs and they are all respectful to the members and try their best to help members, if asked. The owner has a great heart and pays for this site, mostly out of her own pocket. She does not press people to donate, though there is an option on the site to do so, and I think that is more than reasonable.

So, please ignore the negative comments and give the site a try. The owner gains nothing financially by you giving it a try, since it is free for disabled members. If you decide it isn't for you, then you are not out anything and can go on your way. But, if it does turn out to help you, then you are much richer for it.

Thanks for your time spent reading this comment. I hope to see you on WWW.SOULFULENCOUNTERS.COM and tune in to listen to the radio at WWW.SOULFULENCOUNTERSRADIO.COM. We have live DJ's most nights from 8 to midnight Eastern time, and some other times as well. A schedule is posted on the radio site. when there isn't a DJ, there is an automatic DJ playing music as well.

And yes this is Werewolf 85. Soulful Encounters is a cyber bullying ring and completely contradicts the purpose of helping the disabled. Louise and all her cronies are a bunch of bullies. I know numerous people who also quit because Louise would spew gossip and talk negatively about others then encourage her favorite members of gaining up on them and subjecting them to abuse and humiliation. That's not helping people; that's bullying and defamation. I hope the authorities intervene and shut this site down.

Walker, you obviously have me mistaken for someone else because I never once used any profanity in there and I quit the site; I was never banned. And unlike you, I was always respectful of others (yes I remember you). I was constantly bullied by several members and Louise always encouraged people to gain up on others that she disagreed with even the slightest wee bit. Several people made inappropriate advances towards me and when I complained to Louise, she instead threatened me. Most of the people in the chatroom are rude and abusive and subject decent like us to abuse and humiliation. I wanted to sue this site for defamation. This is all cyber bullying at its finest and I'm glad that I left. I never want to return to this site again! Shame on everyone who goes along with Louise on her bullying escapades.

To further make my point, another person has a complaint on this site stating that Louise may seem genuine but in fact starts stuff behind their backs and makes people turn against one another and even goes as far as talking negative things about people even after they left. I myself was so disgusted that I wanted to file a lawsuit against her for slander. She's a bully!

You people must have me mixed up for another person because never once did I ever used profanity in there nor not once did anything that was inappropriate so you're obviously mistaking me for someone else. I don't even use profanity outside in real life either. Louise kept on meddling in my personal relationship with someone that I know and even threatened to kick me out if I continued my relationship with this one girl (who by the way is a very kind hearted and decent person). Louise is overbearing, unprofessional and treats disabled people like they're children with no ability to make their own decisions. I have even talked to several psychologists, my own family about this site and even they say that it is not healthy. It's a hostile environment in there which is why I decided to quit out of disgust. And several other people who I know also left in disgust. I think Louise knows what weaknesses people have especially those with disabilities, takes advantage of them and likes being in power over them. She's a bully!

I have been a member of Soulful Encounters for a very long time. I do not agree with any of the complaints here. I have known the owner/operator of Soulful Encounters Mrs. L Maxwell for many years and she bends over backwards to help her members any way possible. Yes, there are rules and there should be rules as any site will have rules and protocols of usage of which are stated in the terms and conditions. Soulful Encounters is a safe place because Mrs. Maxwell diligently goes through a policy to ensure the members are protected. I also am a dj for the soulfulencounters radio site and I am eternally grateful for this opportunity. Anyone thinking of joining need not pay attention to the complaints posted here because there is always 3 sides to the story . The truth is that Mrs. Maxwell gives her members many chances before having to take the step to remove a member as I know for a fact that removing a member for breach of the terms and conditions is heart breaking for her.
Sincerely,
Sharon aka GladGal (a very happy member at Soulful Encounters)

the more I think about it all the complaints must be true...

makes me wonder why all the complaints sound familiar if their wasnt truth to it?

Your best friend could not get on the site because she did not put the numbers she had behind her username..This was explained to her after a lot of emails asking why she was locked out. She then realized that this was not the case and has been coming in and having fun with us. The fee is optional...You can give a valid phone number to get in too. This wipes out the scammers from Africa pretending to be Americans working there and then they start to ask for money.. It is for the protection of the members. Most people get on by telephone verification. And members will tell you how safe they feel on this site.

Soulful Encounters has been around now for over 6 years with many satisfied members. Members are deleted for using foul sexually explicit language or for being disrepectful to other members. Everyone is given a warning before being removed. This is not a typical website. It is a very supportive place for people with all kinds of disabilities who have been hounded, harassed and bullied in other places. Louise works tirelessly to support this site with her own time and money. She intends no ill will towards anyone. The complaints are just sour grapes from bitter people who have nothing better to do than blame other people for the poor choices that go them banned from the site. Come find out for yourself. Membership is free and you will get a warm greeting from the Founder herself.

My bestfriend who has hunnington's disease was deleted from soulful encounters after less than 24 hours on the website. You have to pay a verification fee of $ 5.00 to get on the website. I think this site won't do well, if they keep deleting good people for doing absolutely nothing on this website.

I' ve been with Soulful Encounters and Louise Maxwell nearly from the beginning. Regrettably it's impossible to be all things to all people. Most members understand that to be an open forum in which all are welcome there must be a flexibility to be respectful while at the same time being open to fun and flirtatious banter. Sadly some people for whatever reason can't quite grasp that their emotions aren't shared by the entire population of the planet earth. Soulful Encounters is a wonderful site open to all that insist all have fun within the broad parameters of good taste. Several members have caused massive damage to good and harmonious conversation. Before someone is removed from Soulful Encounters they are given several offers of help to curb self destructive behavior. The fact that someone started a bash site speaks volumes to how some spend their time. Sadly there is little to be done to repair a broken bitter personality. Soulful Encounters is a safe bet for anyone that is able to function in a normal environment as well as those too disable to mingle. It's a God Send and home to so many wonderful people; thousands actually. Don't believe me, join today and decide for yourself.

i am also a former member and i too was VERY disappointed with the goings on. louise maxwell deleted me due to what another member said. and has yet to give me a valid reason why and on several occasions i have requested that along with a few choice words due to my being wronged. i will never go back and would advise anyone against it.
