I assume you meant day... I have a few female friends on POF to varying degrees of attractiveness, but all fairly good looking, and 50 messages a week is on the extremely low end.
I'll throw another vote out there for Tinder.

This. A million times this.
I have no idea what it is with dudes and the slightest shred of anonymity. The crap that guys say on there is just mind boggling, and I would have to think 90% wouldn't be anywhere close to that personality in real life.
Follow some common?-sense ideas, like no mirror selfies of just your abs, no wang picks, and no pics that look normal but *cleverly* show your wang in a mirror or something, and chat with people online like they are in fact, real people and you should be fine.
An incredibly interesting read on the online dating subject (and meeting and interacting with people as a whole) and how it's changed over the last few generations is "Modern Romance" by Aziz Ansari. Highly recommend.
