Tinder is going to try to do something about the bots:
Already been answered, but I don't think so. I have a date on Saturday with a 21 year old. I'm 28.
Ask for the number right away next time. Don't add them.
The company is rolling out a beta feature for Tinder Plus called “Unlimited Likes”. Obviously, unlimited likes is already a free feature on Tinder, but the ‘Bouncer’ (as they call it internally) is only meant to be shown to spammers and bots.
The new feature uses the Tinder Plus paywall to limit “improper use” of Tinder. For the most part, that means that spam bots and other malicious behavior will be detected by algorithms and introduce a paywall to limit the amount of likes a user can give. The paywall lasts for a day and disappears the next morning.
...
The algorithms used to trigger this paywall looks at a number of data points, including the number of swipes, direction (obviously), velocity, time spent looking at a profile, etc. This means that a user could theoretically swipe right on 500 recommendations in a row after thoroughly reviewing each individual profile and never get the prompt to upgrade to Tinder Plus.
...
Tinder Plus is expected to roll out in mid-March, giving users the ability to pay a monthly fee to get access to premium features. Those features include an “Undo” button, letting you change your mind on your last left-swipe, and Passport, which gives users the ability to search for matches in any part of the world, even if they’re not actually there.
Is a 21-yr-old girl in the "creepy" range for a 29-yr-old guy? It comes down to birth month for if I'd be in violation of the "half your age plus seven" rule. But still, she liked me first...
And the worst pickup line I've used that worked - "You know what I'd see in the Mirror of Erised? You" It's a Harry Potter reference, and I noticed she had an HP tattoo...anyway, we're getting dinner tomorrow.

So if I've bern talking to someone on Tinder and the app says the haven't been on for a few days (4) should I wait it out or send them a FB request and hope it doesn't come off as creepy?
