Short of a full on background check, one thing they can do is see if a prior date had said anything about the potential date. At relationslip.com, that is just what people can do: after you go on a date, you fill in a survey about the date, rating the date on various dimensions. Over time, you get a picture of a person, their reputation. At relationslip.com, you can lookup your potential date's reputation and see if a date is worth pursuing or there are some red flags raised. While this stops short of a full on background check, it does give you more information than you knew before. Reputation is the key.
