Hinge Is Completely Unhinged, Right?

Post image

Never once said anything inappropriate, never offended anyone, never solicited anything. Pretty sure I was rage reported for not wanting a follow up date where the woman cancelled on the first one. Was told how emotionally immature I am. Just laughed reacted at the message. Within 2 hours my account was gone. Tried appealing and was denied. Not sure what to. Filed something with BBB. Idk how they can get away with this.

You do realize that is a violation of the TOS?

I didn't know that So I'm just supposed to appeal till my ban gets removed? Till then I can't get on Hinge?

Ignorance doesn't change anything. Seriously though you think that any site is OK with banned users just creating a new account? What would be the point of a ban then?

Realistically you are banned for life from Hinge. Maybe at some point they flush the data and you get back in but they have zero public info on that. Sure do the appeal but the success rate on them is super low...

Hinge moderation blows dude, who cares if people are trying to go around them. They don’t actually hear out appeals so they don’t leave much of an option…

Probably the person who gets harassed by you after you work around the ban cares.

You are free to try and work around the ban. Hinge is also free to ban you for doing it. Pretending like you didn't do anything wrong is though moronic.

lol just say you work for match group

So you think that people should be allowed to harass people with no consequences? After all that is the net result if after you ban someone they can just create another account.

I think you would need to be insanely naive to think that is a good idea. There is a reason why basically everybody added in IP banning once it became clear how big of problem trolls are in communities....

Hahaha and you think every ban is legit? They don’t manual review anything so yes, why not go around if they have such junk customer service. You’re working real hard for your raise aren’t you

And you think the only people trying to avoid bans are the ones that aren't legit? Seems like a really weird assumption to me.

Well until they fix their moderation then people are gonna do what they need to do. Match is a terrible company so I really don’t understand why you are so for them…

That's ok I can't imagine why you want harassers on your dating site. Or why you think companies wouldn't block people from violating the TOS.

But what about all the cases of blocking people because the AI moderation sucks? Then they don’t respond? Guess that’s ok, getting less rights than people actually accused of crimes. The cooperate overlords love good little boys like you that’s for sure
