If a profile has been able to amass several thousands matches on tinder before, and you suddenly drop to a handful a week, it’s not that you suddenly became unattractive overnight or the male competition exponentially increases, it’s that the site fundamentally changed so you are getting fewer matches to drive more spend in their app.

If you never got matches from the start. Then your pics/profile could use improvement. But the fact that many guys report of large success on some apps, and major failures on others suggest it’s not looks that’s the issue. It’s the apps and the science behind them that have changed to be against our favor. The user base across the dating apps largely overlap. So if you’re ugly, you will struggle on all - not do well on some, but struggle on others.

If you really believe tinder is scheming like this it's best to take your money and go elsewhere.

If a 25 match/hour profile goes a whole day without a match, then it's nothing to do with the profile itself.

That IS due to the algorithm. Unfortunately for us we can't access it, but we can make an educated guess through trial and error.

I plan on resetting my account after next weekend and comparing it to boosts. I believe that resets can still be used, but they must be done a different way than before. I'm working on a new method.

Confused. I'm 28 and now it's asking me more money for a plus account. Is it more expensive for 28+ now? Guess I'll have to shave off that year. Hmm it's saying higher price point for 27 too. What's the deal? Wasn't like this yesterday I don't think.

yes, this was circulating around the news a few years ago. They were sued for it, but clearly nothing has changed.

I don't know how statistically improbable my personal experience with Tinder is but here is what happened.

A month ago I had Tinder+ and I pre-swiped a bunch of girls before going to Boston for 8 days. Then I swiped my first 2 days there as well (including some Bumble for which I don't pay). I got so many matches in Boston that I couldn't meet all of them. May be it was the time of the year? Beginning of February? May be it was something else? But I generally have almost zero matching rate on Tinder and the ones that do match me are average at best. So interesting - I got out on dates with 3 different girls from Tinder that week. I also got 2 more girls through day game. That got me 7 nights busy with dates so I didn't have a chance to do any night game.

Now let's fast-forward to today. I canceled my Tinder+ subscription. I matched for 2-3 days now but it limits the number of girls I can swipe to 20 a day. I have no matches yet and it just looks completely dry. I am sure Tinder just wants your money at this point before providing you pussy. I would if I was them. Nothing is free these days especially access to pussy.

Bumble is almost a complete miss at this point for me. I don't even bother with online dating any more. My roommate is killing it on there - but he does no day game and just a little night game. He's attractive, ripped, older then me and probably looking at different demographics. I just feel that the 25 year olds that I am chasing would not consider me in my mid thirties? Why would they? At the end of the day results matter the most. And mine have been bad on Tinder/Bumble.

I was aware of the price doubling for 30+ but it's doing this on a 27 age account and 28 age account so I'm wondering of something else weird is going on. It was giving me lower price point just a few days ago as an option.

“There’s no more girls in your area” - message a new match or update your bio then all of a sudden there’s loads of new girls in the deck

Gold was rubbish - most of the likes you will get are from optimistic ugliest or fatties and I’d say about 50% will turn up in your swiping

Does messaging your match move you up in the ranking? Updating profile pics can also work?

Post: #8008

How old is your roommate and what is his target age range?

Post: #8009

I'm reporting back after using boosts for a week.

Nothing. Zero. Zilch.

I'll be honest though, I think my profile was low in the ranking for some reason or other. I was getting 1 match per day when I didn't have a boost running. Never happens to me usually.

I was probably sounding like a cry baby last week because I didn't get laid, but resets are still a thing. Met up with girls tonight and have a DTF girl for tommorow night so it's business as usual.

I don't doubt that boosts work though, I think it was a technical issue more than anything. I'd like to try another batch on another account later on.

Do you use the gif-loop facility?

I had reservations about it, seemed douchey and try hard. Just uploaded a loop of me skipping in the boxing gym. It looks good in the sense that it shows me in good condition, training boxing and doing quite advanced moves with the rope, but i cant help but feel douchey. I have other pics of me taken during training, so i dunno. Not sure whether to keep or ditch it tbh

I think this is a new territory. I saw someone else say it brings in more matches, so maybe

Post: #8012

Do you guys think there is a correlation between photo feeler and tinder matches? I just discovered it, and I'm glad. I'm going to review all my photos to see if I didn't catch anything. I set it that only rate the pictures, cause I think women are harsher judgers on photos and obviously thats demographic I'm going for.

What do you guys think though? Has higher ratings on Photo Feeler, not brought in more matches sometimes?

Post: #8013

I would assume there's a pretty decent correlation between them. I've never used a low-scoring picture for my Tinder profile as a test tho

I always get crap rating on photo feeler but my tinder can look like this when I visit a new city anyway.

Personally, I have seen no correlation. But my buddy always gets a very good rating on photofeeler and claims it useful for Tinder. But he doesn't just look well above average, but also like he's a nice and very agreeable person too, which I think gives a higher score among the people there. Meanwhile, I hear sometimes that I look like a criminal/psycho. I think it depends.

Post: #8015

I deleted all my tinder accounts a month ago because of fatigue and my last tinder notch who went crazy (First "bad" experience on tinder).

I decided to go 90 days without signing up again as a challenge to myself and also to test if tinder deletes your data after 3 months, one of my accounts was shadowbanned so it will be interesting to see if it's back to normal after 3 months.

I also plan to make a fake girl profile to check out the competition and see if guys still message the same boring openers. (Last time I checked their text game was awful).

Post: #8016

Let me know what kind of results you get after 90 days abstinence, Tinder Scientist.

In the mean time, I've been experimenting with different parameters for resets (time, swiping habits...etc) and I may be breaking some new ground here. I have a roster of DTF girls lined up for the coming week now.

Guys, if you want consistency from Tinder you should all treat it like an experiment. Make a note of something every time you change it, analyse results, and repeat.

Thanks for insight. I think that makes sense that a more criminal look would do well on tinder, but not do as good on photofeeler. I just look like some regular dude, so right now it seems like my photofeeler is performing similarly to correlation of matches respective to each photo.

Hey Tinder Scientists,

Im also curious what changed for you.

Keep us updated

Which one of you is this?

Quote:Single Bodybuilder Sparks Outrage With His Controversial Tinder Bio

http://www.ladbible.com/news/viral-singl...drJMwJurSI




In his pretty ballsy profile pic, the 27-year-old is seen posing in a full-length mirror, with his top off and - bizarrely - his tracksuit bottoms around his ankles.

But it's his bio and not his photo, which has really got people talking. In it, he states: "I have 3 rules.. Rule 1, I don't want to be step dad so no kids unless u have just one, I want my OWN thanks (sic).

"Rules 2, if you date black boys or think about it don't even text me (sic).

"Rule 3, I don't want a time waster or someone who is a bum .. go make your own money u lazy f***s (sic)"

Sadly for this mystery lover however, there don't appear to have been many takers.

One angry Twitter user wrote: "He is a narcissistic, racist, misogynistic, delusional muscle head."

A second person then said: "I'm going to screen shot this for when my relatives ask me why I'm still single."

Big Dog Owner™ and everything.

This profile would slay but also get banned fast in my opinion. That's what sucks with tinder, you can't really be yourself as a guy unless you're just very politically correct. Men are not allowed to have preferences, only women can be the choosers in the Western world.

How many women’s stacks must he have been on top of to have been noticed by enough women with unrequited lust to start the social media storm?

Post: #8022

If he is in danger of getting banned for saying pretty normal things, why do these fake experiment male profiles with disgusting bios never get banned? I am talking about those who put model like guys with bios such as "ex convict, raped a 15 year old", "was convicted of manslaughter", etc.

Post: #8023

So, I got a notification I matched with this girl near me. I open up tinder to see this and there is nothing. Probably the quickest unmatch ever or bug.

Disgusting bio? Ex convict/murderer is being honest about who he is, besides he already served his sentence, banning him would make Tinder company look discriminatory and they would have hard time justifying it

You want these people to integrate in society by letting them slay the best sluts online

Post: #8025

Ah I see, fake murderers and fake rapists get immunity but guy with real standards like the real Chad above gets banned. Fuck those asshole developers.
