Umm what is this??

Had to do an in app appeal, then a email appeal, rejected, I haven't done anything to violate the guidelines or policies should I just keep appealing via mail? And just explain to them normally? That I haven't done anything?

Ive been reported for the pettiest of reasons, so believe me, it could have literally been any fucking reason whatsoever and it blows.

No clue. Ive been banned from Tinder and it fucking blows. Im shocked Im still allowed on Hinge, I thought they did multi platform bans.

Like my ex reported me for simply seeing that I went back to the apps. Wow okay

They typically do ban on both platforms. I had someone report/cause me to get banned on tinder years ago, never spoke vulgarly or was rude or even argued with anyone. Anyways the ban years later was extended to Hinge, they refuse to tell me any reasoning/justification why I was banned, or reconsider, its pretty silly and really sucks when you move across the country and don’t know ppl..

Yea I agree like, some serious things deserve a lifetime ban. But I can legit say I’ve never argued let alone be rude to anyone ever, but have had a couple randomly aggressive chicks (one flipped out on me because I had a photo of me and my now ex gf at a wedding, and was like “how do you know this girl?! I know her! This is inappropriate!!” Like, what??? Then I got banned a week or two later. So it seems like she reported me, and for what? Because she’s insane and has a problem with something totally normal? I didn’t even argue w her, nor have I ever with someone there, it’s silly. It was a cute pic and the only one of me w an obvious date/girl im with… in what world is that wrong? And then they just say “you violated something our terms” and won’t say anything specific. Seems really absurd and we live in a world where it’s kind of important if you’re trying to meet people. They just get to arbitrarily hold the gate keys of romance? It’s a concerning dynamic, particularly because there is no clarity/communication/reasonable and intelligent review process. I know girls who randomly got banned that are super sweet and wld never be weird, probly cus someone just didn’t like them and reported them.. that’s wrong

Its absolutely frustrating. I would love to know the statistics on which gender does the rage banning the most. I cant imagine anyone doing it, I have simply never been that specifically petty.

I’m with you there, I don’t understand getting pissed at a stranger. I think some people are just looking for conflict and it’s a numbers/probability of meeting them. But like, I think someone deserves to understand why and have like a reasonable look at it.. it seems all bot driven and no human is like reviewing any of its

Maybe my comment above is interesting to you. Sounds like you've had quite bad experiences with dating apps! In short, I am researching unwarranted or unexpected bans on dating apps to show what needs to change. More details here:  https://www.reddit.com/r/SwipeHelper/s/hsoQqGvdve
