How the hell do you manage to get banned from dating apps?

[–] chaogomu@kbin.social 150 points 1 year ago (1 children)

There might be a link between the bans from dating apps and the "not been in a long-term relationship"...

[–] FoundTheVegan@kbin.social 79 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Add another link to posting on 4chan. I'm sure they are just a SWELL.

I feel like everything except their age can be traced back to no education.

There are plenty of otherwise normal, functional people on that website.

[–] PM_me_your_doggo@lemmy.world 15 points 1 year ago (2 children)

But they never post anything

Usually being verbally abusive toward "females"

[–] MxM111@kbin.social 8 points 1 year ago (6 children)

Why female is “in quotes”?

[–] bstix 47 points 1 year ago (2 children)

It's a derogatory when used as a noun.

Previous poster put it in quotes to show that OP probably used it that way.

Who says "females" in that context? Usually a very specific subset of people who have "never been in a relationship" and make it other people's problem. Like, regular person would just say "women", hence OP quoting

Incels referring to women as females and likely a real chauvinistic attitude

"Hello bambinos"

My wife's best friend has been banned a couple times and is waiting to appeal her tinder ban again.

Although often justifiable based on the ways these guys have acted/spoke to her, it's usually because she's super ruthless in her response. A guy got mad she wasn't interested in just being a booth call after she said she's there for dates too, said she was after a free meal (paying hadn't come up yet, and she always pays for herself unless a guy insists) and so she tore into him. And she's brutal. Another had ghosted her after rescheduling on the date twice and saying stuff came up and that he's busy (days after the fact, no check in or nothing) and so she told him that's some horse shit and that he's a little bitch that needs to get his life in order if he's gonna stand somebody up twice after begging for a second chance.

She definitely could be nicer sometimes, but from what I've read from her it's no different than how I see a lot of dudes talk on there, I think those guys just got their feelings hurt more than standard tinder girls do.

So someone who can't control their temper got banned. The system works.

I used to go to school with a lady that was perma banned from Tinder last year. My guess is she replied to creepy/perverted messages with enough hostility that they yeeted her straight off the platform.

In all honesty I've gotten banned from a couple. Turns out they don't usually take account security super seriously. Stop using it for a bit, and suddenly it's sending out obvious scam bait messages lol

oh no, the consequences of my inaction

[–] DigitalTraveler42@lemmy.world 159 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Being banned from dating apps is probably consequences for their actions.

[–] SinningStromgald@lemmy.world 75 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Lack of license and being an alcoholic is probably consequences as well.

[–] Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works 13 points 1 year ago

Not having a driver's license could be either.

[–] KingThrillgore@lemmy.ml 83 points 1 year ago (1 children)

This dude reads like a sociopath. The system works.

[–] Skyline969@lemmy.ca 42 points 1 year ago

Seriously. You need to really try to get banned from a dating app, let alone apps plural.

[–] Szymon@lemmy.ca 68 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

I'm sure there are countless social or personal reasons for it, but kids having kids without being taught responsibility or how life works means you get a lot of unfortunate children growing up who were never taught about making plans and goals in life, nor are they provided resources to be successful past childhood when you're just expected to exist and nobody gives a flying fuck about you.

Then go do some stuff that will improve your life?

[–] Osirus@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 year ago

Yes, step 1. Stop drinking. Step 2. Get a job, any job. The rest fall in to place.

Methinks the last item on the list might be somehow affecting the others...but certainly life is just hell for this guy and there's nothing that can be done but type about it

[–] phorq@lemmy.ml 8 points 1 year ago

I didn't know you even could be banned from dating apps

[–] Pat_Riot@lemmy.today 4 points 1 year ago

Hell, as always, is self made and fake.

[–] Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

It's actually quite an impressive feat to fuck your life up that badly. This person has absolutely nothing going for them whatsoever.
