Anybody else run into this problem after deleting and starting over Tinder...I kept getting nothing but ugly's and fatties in my swipes. It's like someone is messing with me for restarting it. I literally swiped left 50 times in a row.

There's a flood of Taiwanese girls over here on working holiday visa's suddenly matching with me on Tinder. I've gotten a few numbers but struggling to get them out on a date, I think they're worried about their english ability.

Yah, I have a working theory that as you get up in matches, your profile get's shown more attractive girls. Mine was at a low number, once I got close to like 95 matches I started getting in influx of 7s+ to swipe.

I think you're on to something here. I've been on Tinder about two months, and I've noticed as I've gotten more matches the quality of women I'm seeing has improved.

Guys I've seen a lot of people here struggle with Tinder and get frustrated; then there are a few who use it as a reliable passive pussy stream. I'm in the latter category and have had pretty good success in supplementing my day game. Not going to lie, standard has varied, but a man will do what needs to be done. Bangs: 15, dates but no bang: maybe a bit more than that, but not much. Matches about 1000 (various countries). I'm currently able to arrange more dates than I have time for, so really only use it when day game is slow.
As more and more people are recognising the importance of text game, but struggling to improve, I don't think a focus on this would be a bad thing.
I'm happy to provide complete transcripts of conversations from match to agreed meet-up, if people are interested or would find this helpful. Others are of course encouraged to do the same. We can critique each other as well. I see this as somewhat similar to Giovonny's contributions in the 'Approach' thread, and the 'What to text next' thread, but tinder-specific.
Happy to start a new thread specifically for examples and discussion of tinder transcripts, but as I'm a newbie I thought I'd float the idea here first to see if there's interest.
My God..I was bored so read 10 pages or so of this thread.
I've never used Tinder but it all seems such awful hard work for potentially poor results.
I just don't think I could ever be bothered to do all the clowning around required.
Don't know how you guys do it.

Same lines, rinse/repeat, occasionally get a bite and bang. Fairly minimal effort and not a bad back up. Shake it up by trolling occasionally, or being more and more direct and outrageous (and noticing you can get away with a lot); testing different 'approaches' to see what works. The options are endless.
Does get boring and tiring though.
I agree with a lot of you boys, Tinder is a joke, women use it to inflate their egos and to promote their instragram accounts. Occasionally you'll score but it will require a lot of time and efforts. A few stories I will share.
1. I met this girl on tinder last year, she told me she was really 43 but her tinder says she was 37 due to an error by Facebook. I rejoined tinder last week and I came across her profile again, she is now 36 years old on Tinder.
2. One woman I matched with said she doesn't date men with kids, since I have no kids I applied and gave her right swipe. Lucky for me, we matched. I asked if she had kids and she said she had two, I left it at that.
3. One girl who I was communicating throughout the week offered me two slots to meet her on Saturday, she said we could go for coffee at either 1:30 or 3:30. I was delighted to I penciled myself in for the 1:30 slot, then I changed it to the 3:30, and then I told her I didn't feel like traveling 10 miles for coffee and we could meet some other time.
Once you are experienced on Tinder you look at it when you are sitting on the toilet bowl dropping bombs, don't take it too seriously, don't let these girls play you. Go out and game, approach.
Peace

Not sure if serious and clueless, or troll. If genuine, I'm happy to break this down for you further.
WTF is with your third point? You hate Tinder because you're a flaker?
Also, are you from the US?
'an error by Facebook'
One communicates WITH someone. You don't just communicate.
I would comment on you 'giving her right swipe' but actually I quite like this particular language construction.

It's the biggest thing that guys seem to struggle with on Tinder (apart from having shit photos in the first place) so I think it's a good idea.

Definitely a good idea. I don't have a problem to get a girls number/whatsapp from tinder, I have 300 or so from there but my main problem is getting them to meet up. It's like if I can't meet them in the first week then my chance of ever getting her out are like 1%, i would be curious to see how you consistently get girls out, start that thread I say.

Dude calm down, its not that serious. You sound frustrated, maybe you should step away from tinder. I read a couple of your posts and you seem to call everyone a troll, including me.
Girl #1: A lot of these girls join tinder for validation, this has been covered here countless times so I won't elaborate. Women also lie, they lie a lot, about their age, their weight and just about everything else. They create fake Facebook profiles with wrong birth dates to avoid disclosing their real age in order to seek validation from younger men.
Girl#2 is a single mom, she wants a man to be free and clear of any parental demands while the man she hooks up with has to deal with her parental duties.
As for my point #3, maybe I should have given more information about this one woman but I was in a bit of a hurry when I wrote this last post.
Girl #3 is 42 years old, we exchanged emails earlier in the week, she then ignores me for 4 days and then on Friday night she emails me to give me the option of filling in one her empty date slots for the next day. She didn't ask when I was available instead she told me what time slots I could meet her. These are mid morning, early afternoon coffee dates - not much you can do when your date is telling you you can enjoy her company for about an hour max.
Back to me. if I had no other options I would have accepted such an offer. So instead of being her lapdog and acquiescing I told her when I was available. This woman wanted me to drive a great distance for a coffee date in her town. After our coffee date she would gone on to her next coffee date. Now I'm sure there are players like yourself that could turn mid day espresso tinder dates into SNLs but I don't have your superior skills player. I didn't rearrange my Saturday to make her happy, I made myself happy by continuing with my scheduled weekend plans which included exercising and watching college football.
I have gotten much better results on sites like Match and OKC than I have on Tinder. But as I stated earlier, nothing beats going out and charming a woman face to face, showing her that you are not afraid to approach, getting to know them and then getting the goods.

Pendejo41 isn't trolling at all. He read the code behind the Matrix of female prerogative. An overlooked element of game is to know when to cut one's losses or to quit while ahead. Very often this needs to happen not long after meeting a new woman.
As for me, I've just had enough of the Hi how are you/ how is your week/weekend? questions. I know that English women can only converse with men when drunk but after a while, my tolerance for this shit disappears and I unmatch.

Sounds like I misinterpreted, PendeJoe, and I apologise for that. You seem like a good bloke.
The only thing I reacted to was that your examples just didn't seem to support your criticisms of Tinder. Fully agree with the criticisms, and the examples (once explained), but as I read it the first time it sounded like you were a keyboard warrior who had no actual real experience (which is always frustrating and a shame on such a high quality forum), because the examples were fairly generic/typical of tinder (woman lies about her age; woman is a hypocrite).
Clearly you know what you're talking about, so thank you for the more detailed explanation and again, apologies. It's a shame we clashed, because I think generally we'd be quite similar.
A few points:
- I went back, and literally haven't called anybody a troll. Not sure where you got that from. I said one guy's thread belonged in the beginner forum (it did), before giving him helpful advice. That's about it.
- Not at all frustrated in life or with Tinder. It's a shit app, but I make it work for me once I know the animal it is (full of boring girls, shit chat, and attention-seekers) and I'm happy to have it supplement my day game
- Agreed that day game is the shit
- No need to attack me personally. I'm not being a big baller or over-inflating my skills. I've got nothing to prove, and I think most of my posts have been constructive and helpful.
- Haven't tried OKC or Match here in Aus, I don't think they're particularly popular. But that's probably a discussion for another post.

100% agree. If you can't get them out within a week of getting the number your chance of ever getting them out drops through the floor.
I'm find it particularly hard right now as it's end of semester and exam time and girls seems happy to chat over Tinder and give out there number but getting them to commit time to a date is impossible. I have 10 new leads at the moment and they are all saying they can't go out until late November.

I was just messing with you bro, we gotta have a laugh every now and then, life is too short. Btw, I'm here in the United States, this might explain the difference in opinion, some of my buddies had great results on Tinder in Brazil this past September. I've gotten a lot of lays as a result of the app so I'm in no way deleting it from my arsenal, I'm just not going to rely on it too much.

Good lesson. We shouldn't ever really rely on any single method, especially online game/tinder. Can't let the other skills atrophy.
Apart from day game. For me, that's the ultimate. If you can meet girls in everyday life and attract them, that's the greatest reward.
But back to tinder...

Sorry just saw this now.
I replied to a similar question in the other thread (Tinder Approach Thread), but just succinctly:
The point isn't to get the number, so forget that/don't focus on that. Means nothing. The point is for them to want to see you. Once they want to see you, sure, get the number and sort out logistics. Then see them ASAP, same day if at all possible.

Heads up guys, Tinder just updated itself on my phone and there's a few new privacy violations going on now. It automatically reveals your education and employer if you configured that on Facebook unless you go to your profile and remove that stuff.

I kind of like the new style though. Make it easier to filter out bots. No info = auto left swipe. Also can gauge how close they are to me without having to click on the profile. Kind of sucks they got rid of the moments feature. Although it was always littered with shitty selfies, the dumb shit I posted always got likes.
