I think there should be a basic standard of identity verification, nothing invasive or threatening to guys that want to remain anonymous, but something like a identity test, a selfie with their name/display name and email address that the moderators can use to verify that the person can't lie / impersonate / scam or otherwise use the app deceitfully or criminally. Personally, I've been stalked constantly by one or more people that continue to approach me using different profiles and other people's pictures while also using my pictures to rmdi the same to other people. This is the main problem with this app, and I believe it could be immensely better if there were measures taken to at least reduce the amount of freedom and ease these people have in order to terrorise people. They are allowed to bully dozens, hundreds, thousands with almost no repurcussions.
I hope this message reaches the right people, because I've used Grindr most of my adult life and don't want to have to resort to leaving it because I don't feel safe or continue to be victimised.
Sincerely, Addi Draco
