What our members say

This site is asking. I originally thought to try penpals to get my kids interested in it. I don't want expecting to meet my best friend on this site. And no we didn't know each other beforehand. Thank you Global Penpals!!!!

A very good site, thank you. It should be mandatory for users to have a profile photo. Fix this. Let's make more than one smile. Çok iyi bir site elinize sağlık. Kullanıcıların profil fotosunun olması zorunlu olmali. Bunu düzeltin. Birde birden fazla smile atabilelim.
