Several years ago I met someone on the site. We corresponded for a few years. Is it possible to search a person by the name they used if you dont know their location? Many thanks.

Now it's not possible. No.


Maybe by location.. but not sure.

They removed the search by user name feature a few years ago. But it sounds like you are on the right track of searching by location and age range. If they are still in the same location that is.

Kind of odd that the correspondence stopped after a few years without a trace.

Yes go to google search engine and type the following in search field.

Site:mingle2.com someone

Instead of someone use the user name, try your user name and see what happens.

I tried the same thing in duckduckgo.com and this is what came up, surprise.

Holy cow! That indeed works. About time Mingle2 started clearing their archives out...

It only works with members who have posted on the forums

Not true, try with your own name in duckduckgo.com

Try this site:mingle2.com delightfulillusion

The first one will be your profile, I have tried.

My name comes up because I post on the forums. Try a username that doesn’t post on the forums.

It’s been like this for years.

I tried a lady, she has never posted anything in forums and still her profile came up. Try this.

site:mingle2.com Elleneisen

Try on duckduckgo.com

Hi Jugar .. I was aware early on that forum posts , profile info and profile photos appear not just on mingle but also the internet and can be viewed for years via google, without accessing mingle .

Yes, but that is the function of a search engine to search and find. Google sucks at this, duckduckgo is better, there are more search engines such as yandex is better when you search by image etc. In this case I tried google and duckduckgo, duckduckgo works better, much better.

You’re right it’s wiser that way

not so odd, many people disappeared for various reasons during the pandemic
