New Profiles Disappearing
Jump to: Newest in thread
I’ve noticed the newer the profile the more likely it is the person you’re chatting to will disappear. As someone looking to build connections this bothers me (appreciate not everyone will feel the same).
Do you have advice about when it’s time to “trust” a profile? I was thinking about saying I won’t chat to profiles under 6 months, but that feels a bit harsh to genuine guys who just happen to be new! |

6 months is harsh.Maybe look for verifications first?
If not Look at the age and the effort put in.
A lot of people join thinking this is a quick meet up site and get disappointed easily.

I’m not new but my profile is new. I leave and come back which I imagine would be frustrating for someone if I didn’t tell them to give them the option to maintain contact.
But, OP, you have to do what YOU feel is right to protect YOU. If you want to only talk to profiles at least 6 months old then do that.
But just know, that I’ll never have a profile that old so we will never speak |

Why age?
People of all ages have low effort profiles and think it’s a quick meet up site |

Thank you, I’ve noticed a well constructed profile isn’t a good indicator - I guess once you’ve written your piece and chosen your pics you can just copy and paste for every new profile you open.
But yes verifications tend to be good - only a lot of men find it hard to get verifications so it feels harsh to discriminate that way too lol |

Why is it you don’t keep a profile that long? You’re such a big community member here, why cut all those ties ? |

You have the right to discriminate in my opinion and I believe you and all women 100% should only go for verified profiles
You are not here to do charity after all

That’s a really good point, your last sentence really struck home. Thank you |

Trust but verify. Look for patterns in communication if you can between people who disappear and people who don't.
Make small commitments - a pub not far from your house that you'd like to go to even if they ghost you. |

That’s a great idea, so their presence would only be a bonus not essential |

It's how I was verified for the first time. "I like that pub, it's not that far from me, if she's full of shit I'll have a pint and go home" |

Usually I just get pissed off from the forums and I know if I hide I’ll just log in and use it. But I do usually tell people I’m talking to and give them the option to message me on telegram |

I’m speaking in general.Younger people up to a bit past my age are far more likely to either get easily frustrated or just bored with things.There are exceptions but I don’t believe women should waste their time trying to find them.
Cruel way to think I know but I believe the saved time is worth it |

I wonder as well whether people creating temporary profiles are even more likely to put fake info, and I expect you’re more likely to lie and say you’re 25 than 45 |

If I get messaged by a new user who I like the look of I either suggest meeting for a drink very quickly - shows if they are genuine or not and saves wasting time chatting. Or I am straight with them and say if you are still interested once they have found their feet on here and got verified, come back and we'll take it from there. |
