It has been a month since i used tinder platinum
before subscription
barely get any matches at all, maybe 2 matches in a day if lucky.

after subscription
on average, i get around 5 matches per day within 2 weeks, on the first few days i got around 10+ matches without boosting.

*every normal swipe you swiped may be prioritized on their profiles (as you know, girls usually get bored after 10-20 swipings, cause every guy they swipe may instantly matched)
*send a message before superlike (it will work typically your initially message is polarizing or humurous)

today before 12pm
i got 3 matches within 10 minutes, ain't sure about how the algorithm works
i used a 30 min boost last day, i had 6 matches including two trans

*if the women are constantly replying you, your score will go up, as the result you may get matches at the moment, so please do not spam messaging on girls who never reply you*

p/s: i had 6 pictures, 2 out of 6 are short videos (it can be as added advantage if your quality of photo sucked or you don't have travel photos)

There are ALOT of scammers in Tinder.

Here are some of the hints that a profile might be a scammer.

1. Mostly, if not always, use Chinese girl photo.

2. Usually use English name like Anna

3. If matched, will tell you that "she" is living in Singapore or China and running their own business.

4. If living in Malaysia, will immediately ask you for meetup at a place of her choice.

5. Nothing on their profile bio except Wechat or LINE ID.
*
6. poor, blurry picture

7. without bio, or bio that only shares instagram id (check also their instagram whether it's legit)

8. the way they reply is either few words answer, and you may sense something's OFF by the way they reply you

But i guess it's also quality that you'll want, apart from quantity. Any luck so far?
*
usually if my profile is not strong, the system will not expose to me to more quality prettier girls
most i matched have been cute, maybe im lucky i will match with a below average looking girl she will turn out to be pretty on dates.
i'm going on a date this saturday's with a fun slender hot amoi because i used the 'message before superlike' feature, she noticed me.

other apps i noticed and used
wechat (it has been dead, not a lot of pretty amois there)
bumble
instagram dms (went out with 5 girls? very tough luck if you don't have blue check mark)
CMB (went out with few dates, mostly are professionals)
Tantan (has been dead, went out with more than 50 dates in 2019)
facebook dating (works similar with tantan, matched with a lot during the time)
Omi (mostly malay girls, matched a few, havent gone out with any i guess)

And another step to further protect yourself and not wasting time which I DONT RECOMMENDED AT ALL, stalk the shit out of the person to ensure he/she is single , legit and not a catfish. A google search, including linkedin fb instagram twitter would do.
*
ive encountered more time wasters instead, usually
(a) they dont respond you after you initiate more than 3 times text
(b) the interaction never goes anywhere, they're never intended to go off the apps.
© you got them off the apps, they gave you their digit, but you'll never able to ask them out or they kept declining your call

the dating apps mostly are designed to hook up first, usually if my pics are passable and she likes my texts, maybe we'll text back and forth 20 times, we'll probably make a short call on whatsapp and make the date ASAP.

Posting in legendary thread. Anyway, will park here to find out which app gives out the most response as I have tried majority app and still no luck. Could be face problem.. sigh

If you think you've average photos, give yourself a chance to subscribe its mandatory to stand out. Use boosts, swipe more often if you can.

I have read that once u subscribe bots will come and match with u to make u think ur money is worth being spend. I also see that especially tinder charges quite heavily for the additional features
*
tinder platinum for me is around rm50 per month, wdym by heavily? Coffee meet bagel I'll agree its subscription is more expensive. Ive matched with ladyboys or trans when opened boost. Who cares that much? Its numbers game.

So much win there.
Actually app creators should come out with something that doesn't have any photo. Options based on location, but matching ie. through interest, hobbies etc.

There will be no judgment or bias, and users can approach each other with a more open mind. If users themselves wanna DM their photo, they can do that.

There should be something more genuine in the market. Otherwise i always feel these apps are very superficial - but just my personal opinion je.
*
Fundamentally, its initially about look. If the guy or woman is obese you would be turned off by that. Everything is fast online, thats how people make money (mostly). The reason why the love classified section here has been dead is the same concept.

QUOTE(Guenhwyvar @ Feb 26 2021, 09:25 AM)
Lol from my experience, I'm having tough time on Tinder too. Too many scammers. Even some matches are doubtful (from the way they reply my messages) which made me unmatched them too.  sweat.gif
*
if they ask you where are you very quick, or the way they texted seem 'cacat' just report to tinder, no further questions.

Tinder quality has dropped... many fake profile (PRC), bots, trans, selling service & girls with their bio of not interest to date

Thats why i don want to take the risk of spending RM50 and receiving this kinda search results. Hoping there will be a better app like CMB but with a cheaper price tag eg: RM50
*
i played like 8 different apps at the same time, i don't think CMB is going to reduce its price soon lol
and i don't think the quality of chick there justifies that price. Obviously ive met hotter body indonesian chick at facebook dating too (FREE)
it's luck and placement factor.

From a female point of view:

1. Dating apps and FB dating, even Love classifieds tongue.gif - lots of scammers or married/non single men

2. Usually for sex only, not genuinely looking for a relationship

3. Modus operandi for scammers is some good looking guy, usually gf/wife died few years ago and now he's ready for a relationship. Usually located overseas, US or Singapore and more than willing to move to Malaysia for you, ha ha

Why is it difficult to find a chatting platform like IRC last time? Or is there one but I don't know about it?
*
Have you gone out with guys here. Dont need to disclose their id
How's your experiences so far with online dating.

i think very minority of guys are looking for relationship from the start, everything is fast paced nowadays, there's lack of incentives for guys to 'move slow' because there is always bigger shark out there.

a lot of girls they just shopping on the app la
maybe they swiped a few times, or they swiped and had 100 matches easily, no time to reply or lack incentive to reply since majority of guys text the same boring thing...

one girl, just stay nearby me, she came out because she felt bored because of covid
second girl, she purposely mrt from cheras to sunway putra, 23 years old quirky nerdy girl

i arranged two girls on same day.

so, play along and swipe more.

I'm just starting to wonder if these kind of apps are actually helpful or its just people to have some fun/shopping.
*
just dont spend on sites that guarantee you finding serious partners, a lot of the matches they gave you are those who are 'working for the company', so there's always trappy element there, regardless dating app or meet in real life

ive chatted quite a few indian girls
usually they're flaky...even flakier than chinese i think
if those girls mention they don't know what they're looking for on the app
usually, its a waste of time.

I just had another Coffee Meet Bagel experience last night,
dated a 21 year old local chinese mix girl, sweet and seemingly promiscuous as well, she told me she wanna move out of malaysia because its just so much things she couldn't do at such a conservative country, at her young age i don't expect her to settle down early (even though her mouth says i wanna find a serious relationship).

It's a refreshing experience, cause i've dated CMB:
-auditor
-property valuer
-customer servicer met at Nu Sentral?
etc (maybe have deleted their numbers)

Some girls are just too passive, waiting for someone they like to pursue them desperately while they just sit back relax and enjoy the attention. But many guys will get to know them a bit longer before they really take action and there are plenty of fish in the sea.

Ive tried a few voice calls during mco 2.0
total added up around 40 mins ish
when she turned out on date, its not my type physically obviously but she's chattable.

Where some girls , i hit it off with just 10 mins convo, two days later we already on first date, and she's my type and sweet.

There's a range, where you dont want to invest too much time to build investments.

You seems to be playing the numbers game. Its the right direction to go actually...  swipe 100 and you will get 10, swipe 10, you might get 1... swipe 2.. good luck to u.

To do this you have to be outgoing and not the shy/takut malu type.
*
i mean im not the richest and best looking guy out there
those little things like good at texting, photo angles can add up to advantage.
i just got accussed of dressing poor last night, i wear a blazzer with slipper on lmao
i can get shy during first half n hour meet or few mins initial call

it has been warm up exercises for me...

QUOTE(MeToo @ Mar 9 2021, 04:29 PM)
No photos doesnt work. even if it does it will be for a very niche market which i doubt would be profitable.

Its unfortunate but people do judge a book by its cover, and if you dont liek the cover, you wont even read the story....

Heck I got attracted to my wife at first sight due to her having a pretty face and a ridiculously hot body...
*
women are attracted to guys with good face/ style, its just politically incorrect for them to admit those
my date last night specifically said she likes guys who have tatoos and dress well.
she says if she dress feminine, why she cannot expect the guy to dress better too.

how would you define failures, girls who are not down for LTR? Or its just bad quality of people in general.
