Hi folks!

I was wondering if anyone else has had experience with being a host for Workaway? I signed up recently, and so far, I haven't had a great experience with creepy messages (including from someone who subsequently got their account suspended), and only getting requests from middle aged men who emphasis that they're single. I changed my profile picture and took my age and gender off my profile due to this and I haven't had a single request since. Honestly, whilst it seems like a great idea, I'm ready to give up on it.

Is it worth sticking with?

I host with Couchsurfing and I've never had this problem.
