Good

Profile validation needed during registration. Based on IP addresses, phone numbers, email address.
When you've got the valided status then you can send messages.

heh

you guys don't realize?

grindr is the one sponsoring the spambots

obviously this is so

unless grindr means to suggest, thousands upon thousands of different accounts have as easy a time registering, as we do?

at any rate, don't even bother with blocking / reporting the bots — it's a waste of time

Spam bots have stared sending you private pics with no other messages and then block you before you can report them.

2 features requested.
1) add a delay so that when a bot blocks you you still have an opportunity to report them. Or add the ability to report private pics as spam

2) Prevent users from sending private pics until the user has sent at least one message and received at least one message.

These two features will help stop slow bots from spamming and annoying users and prevent bots from preventing themselves from being reported by blocking legitimate users.

Report all prostitution to the police

Having SO MANY robots so frequently, it makes you guys look like you don't have a clue what you're doing...... And then when you charge such HIGH PRICES for your premium membership, it makes me think, why?? All the bots make it seem like a rinky dink app, but you want to charge premium pricing, what gives peeps?

Find a way to stop the fakes and the whores who want to be paid. It’s gotten pretty bad and it’s changing the feel of your app

if a message starts off with a link, it should be blocked. same goes to the “i’m looking for a loyal sugar baby”. keywords like loyal, .com, and more should be automatically filtered.

The site naacocks.com has many people/bots that send you a picture message then block you or deactivate the account. This is one of many spammers that is overtaking your app. I would suggest running a whois on the site and filing a lawsuit against the owner. This would be the most effective way to combat the spammers the websites all have to be registered to someone and finding out who that is and suing them is an effective solution. It doesn't matter if they're out of country you can still sue them. You can go for harassment of users and violation of policies. You may also be able to get them for decline in user base if you could prove it. The current message of coming up with new ways to combat spammers is not helping you or being effective. Instead of dumping all your money into that. Stop it from happening in the first place it will send a clear message to other spammers. They better not mess with you unless they want to pay. The thing about spamming is that you always have to put a site or contact method. That gives you a clear avenue for legal recourse. It may take a little bit of research or work to get them into court but you can certainly do it.

Grinder is very good at being able to ban users very quickly I'm puzzled why they can't figure out how to stop that Spam bots sending us images. Other apps don't let you send an image to until they've Exchange chat messages

Makes you wonder who really sends those Spam messages

Your app in the oman, uae, qatar, saudi, Kuwait, and bahrain only contains escorts, fake profiles, ads, and lower society rejects!

Why would anyone use your app if it looks like a prostitute market place!

The app used to be decent, no advertisements, and quality people who you would meet on a beat.

I suggest you link the profiles to mobile phone varification and have a profile photo varified.

The governments in the region do not have an issue with being gay, they have an issue with prostitution and shady characters who fly in with a tourist visa, and start working / stealing from hotel rooms! Now that is illegal not you being a homosexual.

Every time i open this app, i find it loosing respect, meeting people on grinder was okay to say, now its like meeting someone who is fresh out of jail!

i keep getting spam messages which expiring pics enclosed - the image is just their advert. but once opened i am instanly blocked and the chat text is removed. this means that i cannot report them as spam as i am already blocked. if you can change the block feature to stop the instant removal of the chat text and window this would make it easier to report someone who is using the block feature even beforei have read the message.

Grindr is ridiculous I got canceled my profile for the first time on any site in 25 years because some selfish bottom boy couldn't take criticism about compromise and being selfish and I hate Grindr so much anyways cuz when I go on there where I live I get people calling me AIDS baguette and meth whore and these people don't even know me but they get to keep their profiles what's up with that grinder I notice and nothing but business and every time I knew gay at pops up what do you think the gay guys go to I think I'm upset at the fact that I've never been canceled for being a disrespectful human being because that's all I am but whatever software they have running their jobs it's their loss for me especially asking us to pay for more of look at St Petersburg Florida and tell me you would pay for more pages of that that's my hometown but it's not my people anymore and they want to charge extra and then they started putting the hotter guys in the Blurred pictures like I didn't notice that oh and I did when prep first came out my profile picture stated one of the advertisements for prep that it was only being given out and tested in San Francisco and London for free yet if you looked at every gay guy's profile from St Petersburg in Tampa they were all on prep they were homeless and living on people's couches but they were all on at 3,700 a month drug and grinder took it down didn't shut my profile down just took away the picture

Privacy privacy privacy if you don't like, you don't have to look.

I believe it's Grindr itself who is making money with the insertion of these ads, that's why they don't disappear, they just get rearranged whenever users get used to fast deleting the current format. They charge you for suscription, they bombard you with ads they also make money with, now that is business!

Police your users better to stop all the fake profiles and spam. Dozens of fakes added daily near me. Scruff doesn't have this problem.

The title pretty much says it all.
Bots send exact same phrase. Block and report should be easy, otherwise I'm not going to report anything and you'll have harder time blocking the new wave. That is assumed you even care about bots
