Snub Club is one of a growing number of dating sites where members get to vote on who gets in based on how they look. You will be denied entry unless you get a rating of 75% or higher. Exclusive online snobbery seems to be a growing trend amongst elitists who wish to ban less attractive folks from their circle. Of course, there may be a few individuals who choose to join such a community to avoid weirdos and perverts they've encountered on other open dating sites but seeing as members are chosen on looks alone, it's not always so easy to spot a deviant merely based on how they look.
