Tinder (i.e., OkCupid meets Hot or Not)
- Thread starter Roger Danish
- Start date
Was using this app before it took off so I was on there with real people mostly.
Sydney selection is pretty damn good but nobody in my age group takes the app seriously (18-22). Also if you test a female friends account you'll notice how much of a joke males treat the system lol, a match every single time.
Got way boring though and I don't really see much potential for it. A lot of people seem to just treat it as "hot or not" and not a dating service.

Going to a bar has a far higher success rate than this. Srsly.
But I guess it's cool that we straights have a Grindr type app now.

Your social circle doesn't sound very "real" if they would judge you on using a fun online dating app.
FYI the app doesn't make any posts and the app is pretty much invisible to everyone
how dare you try to meet people

It explicitly states it doesn't post stuff to your wall so...
This is something I'm legitimately concerned with as well. The second part of your post assuages my fears, but I still feel a horrible stigma about online dating.

I've actually had some success meeting cool folks on this app.

Is there though? I really don't think there is anymore.
You can set any app to make posts that are only visible to YOU. Its the little padlock.
I feel like I'm stuck in that middle generation that expected to be bullied and shunned for being nerdy but never was. Online dating, despite my rational awareness to the contrary, seems like the modern equivalent of ordering a Russian bride.

Thank god I realized you can make the tinder not post to your FB. I don't think my anxiety could handle that.

Yeah, they explicitly say that. I felt the same way haha.
I started liking girls and got a bunch of matches, don't hate!
No, get out of highschool mode bro, the heirarchy system ends there. Youll notice that all the "cool" kids from school have either grown up a lot or just lost all friends and working some shitty job.
People who judge you on using a SOCIAL app just arent the sort of people anyone should be hanging with...
I barely have a Facebook account so Tinder's a bit redundant to me at the moment. I have 3 friends (just lol) on Facebook because I literally never use it so there's not much going for me on Tinder. I could probably improve this quite substantially if I just accepted all of my Facebook invites, but it seems a bit weird to accept pending invites from years ago...

Some hot lady sent me a message asking me to fuck and I was like aight and then I realized It was probably a bot.
Stupid sexy bot

Some robots have vaginas, though.

Yes, Unfortunately. Even with all the new marketing and advertisements most services have now.

Had the same from a bot as well!
When she asked me to log into a cam site, I said im not allowed a credit card in prison...
What percentage of people do not get anything? I don't know how this app got so popular when it does not work.
You should read his other posts lol

Where are you? She looked like one of my friend!
Heh, I don't have a high school complex. I'm the guy in the second part of your post. I guess some of us just don't deserve love. =P
Anyhow, I messed with this for a little bit. Most were bots, but I got a few real matches. I have no idea how to cold start a conversation. What do you guys have success with?

Straight people catching up with grindr style apps?
This thread is precious. Too cute.

Hey bros, I just heard about this new trend where hot, horny chicks hang out at truck stops to pick up dudes on the road. See you guys around the showers!

So this app just reiterates what I already suspected: no woman in a 50 mile radius wants anything to do with me.

This app is pretty solid. I've been a somewhat passive OKC user for a couple years without much luck, signed up for this app today and already have 4 messages from real people and then a couple from bots.
Not too bad, we'll see if any of them go anywhere.

Lol, me and a random girl I met through work like a year ago just totally liked each other and neither of us realized we had met before until like 5 messages in.
