Over a month ago I was trying to create an account and accidentally selected the wrong year which led to Grindr banning me in terms of underage account creation I assume. And now, it seems that I cannot even make another account because it is like they banned my device absolutely.

I submitted the ban appeal over a month ago and apparently moderators take "1-2" business days to review it. I even mentioned my willingness to verify my actual age. But banning my whole device just because I selected the wrong year accidentally (the iPhone user interfce is not the best when using the scroll option)? That's unfair. I believe it's the algortihm or something that's detecting I'm trying to make multiple accounts after the previous account was rejected because I accidentally selected the wrong age.

I do NOT want to do a factory reset, buy a new phone and get a new number. That's ridiculous.

Please reconsider the way you ban users!
