Do they realize they are being throttled? Just because one end sends a swipe doesn't mean the other end receives it right away or at all.
Men who send a lot of swipes get their outgoing swipes throttled. Women who receive a lot of swipes get those swipes throttled, too.
Think about if you were the programmer working on Tinder. The first thing I would build is swipe spam detection.
- coralreef 10y agoWhat do you mean by throttled? As I've seen there is a daily limit on swipes (which can be bypassed with an in app purchase).
- milesokeefe 10y agoAs in after a high enough number of consecutive swipes in a time period, i.e. 3 swipes a second for 30 seconds, the swipes get ignored. No one can evaluate people that quickly, so it's okay to assume the client is a bot or a human spamming likes.
- Dr_tldr 10y agoI know someone who works on the Tinder team, and if this is happening, it's news to them. Ie, you have no idea what you're talking about. If both parties have to swipe in order for them to receive spam, why does Tinder care? In your head, do you think server costs are their primary concern?
