All of those things are being considered, but there is a long drawn out answer as to why I might leave out the option to limit your searching such as "friends, dating, serious relationship and others". It will all be revealed soon, I just need more and more feedback from people to see if I am covering all the annoying things that people are dealing with on these apps.
Single people on the coli
- Thread starter Liquid
- Start date
I have actually never heard this before, why the time limit? Is it because the tone of the messages are much different?
So you go through each and every single one then, does it get tiring or boring after a while? Or every time you see that notification pop up does it still feel exciting/fun?
I was on Tinder for all of five minutes once. I'm too impatient and I have no problem getting laid offline, so I don't need it.
Would it have helped if you were able to receive messages without having to swipe left or right? Or will all the messages annoy you?
What if you can get bombarded with messages and not get annoyed? These are the questions I have.
Because anything after 10 is booty call hours to me and yes the tone. Text, call, email, snail mail me after 10 and you're in the bushes
It doesn't get boring, it's actually interesting because you can see a pattern between all the guys and see how similar their approaches are lol
I can understand that, how about an option so that someone can't send you a message for certain hours? That way if they are really interested you can make them sweat it out to try to reach out to you? Chances are you won't know when you received the message on my app anyway, it's complicated to explain.
So the same routine doesn't get old because the initiator is always different, cool.
Yes. I don't like the concept of swiping to get a match. Someone I would swipe left on might actually be a catch (whether romantically or sexually) and I wouldn't know it because their profile is on some bs because a lot of people are terrible at describing themselves; swipe right and get a match and they could be Satan.
I wouldn't get annoyed by being bombarded with messages. If it's apart of the game then so be it. Just gotta filter the bullshyt.
What you described is one of the biggest issues I have had with Tinder, you can potentially throw away the love of your life by one swiping left with no option to ever hear them out. That bothers me.
So you value profiles, do you like long drawn out profiles or is a character limit like twitter or on tinder fine?
So if you were to log in after a week and see 200 messages, you would go through the whole stack of messages? I have to consider the initiator as well, I don't want their message to get lost.
8 years ago i was staring at the chicago personals and was in the process of signing up.
Then i realized it aint me, as the shyt is stupid as fukk. If I want fresh shaved beef for dinner, i go get a roast, cook it, and use the slicers and my choice of spices. I dont buy the prepackaged shyt. What i look like posting my face and a factsheet for dates? If i cant convince one of the numerous girls who give my stubborn ass more attention than she probably should, then i dont deserve to have a date. Im not a hoe so the hookup thing is out of the question, but i dont fukk with social media of any sort like that. I want a real conversation in a real place.

You fit the first type that I considered from the very start, the people who prefer real conversation. The ones who don't want to read a list of things that the person on the other posted. Finding it out in conversation > reading about it beforehand, but don't want a hookup app like Tinder either.
I have spent a LONG time trying to get this off the ground and my background in college has helped me trying to cover the needs of all, it is no secret that all of these apps suck for those who are more comfortable in person. I have been researching for over a year now as to why everything so far sucks IMO.
OKC - I don't like that I can't seem to limit messaging from people who aren't near and don't match by a certain percentage from messaging me. It's pretty nice otherwise.

Sounds like a noise problem. How far is too far?
Do you even read messages from people who don't have a high match percentage?
Yea, its ass. And tinders dime, in real life, can be a lemon. Bold in the profile, cold in person.
For instance, just speaking of me, im 5'7 184lbs. On a profile if i listed those stats, I'm fukking bushed. And i take, what i consider, awful photos. Like looking in the mirror, i have a slight idea what other people see, but pictures, angles emphasize my huge lips, nose, ears, whatever. A lady i might have came off quirky and cute in the grocery aisle will see a drow elf looking mothafukka on a dating app. I lose the advantage of witticism and charisma if i cant see them first. Same with women, posing and shyt, pretty face, next thing i know, in person she is 30+lbs heavier than i imagined, lacks fashion sense, and myspace angled the fukk outta her profile. I want what i saw in those pictures, a slimmer, confident, outgoing girl who "loves to laugh" but instead i get a slightly awkward chick who clearly used her best clothing for her profile pictures. Had i run into her during a college class or something, what i see would have been what i may have wanted, not the "best foot forward" approach she took which is the nature of dating apps and websites.
I like to watch people, see how they act. A profile only does so much for me. Talking online only does so much, eventually I will need to be surrounded by your energy in person.
I would, but it would take time.
