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)
*
But i guess it's also quality that you'll want, apart from quantity. Any luck so far?

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.
*
#4 - if they actually meet up, would it be scamming at a bar? asking for money. Recall someone mentioned that in CC before.

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)
*
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.

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

That's not possible! You just haven't met the right one.
Look around you - there could be options too nod.gif ie. ex college mates, friend's friend/ sister(s), gym (if you go) etc

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.

Yes and no. That's why if there's an app that doesn't contain photos but more for personality to shine, I'd say it's more genuine because people can get to know each other better. You'll know the other party is genuine when he/she can look past 'appearance' and care about what's inside more.

I'd say Love Classified still survives although a lot of people has gone on app. There are still postings and correspondence as far as i know. I'd call it "dead" only if there's no activity for at least a year or more.

Still considering whether it worth the money. I'm 30. I think more expensive than young guys like you. As I scrolled through photos I do feel unrealistic though. Lol. More like hook up apps.

My 2 cents - it depends on how you present yourself on the app.
Some may present themselves like a typical rich guy, looking sleek and smart with bombastic English to attract attention.
Some outright tells you they're looking for hook ups.
Some will say they intend to look for soul mate.

etc etc all sort of things.

So make your profile with intention of attracting (?) kind of female that you want.
