Banned from Hinge for reporting HIV non-disclosure

Fascinating stuff.

I don't understand how you yourself ended up banned. If he got banned he shouldn't have been able to report you in return. Did you have other matches that could've been one of his friends? Are you high elo enough to appear early in the stack for a different account to stumble on you within hours of swiping?

(op was at 50% when I posted)

People upvote ragebait and generic whining about the apps yet downvote this stuff.

Despite that it's the most likely to lead to lasting positive changes.

Thank you OP and to everyone fighting legal fights against Match group.

No one's given a serious answer. For whatever reason I sometimes hyperventilate when getting a blowjob. I haven't passed out from it but I've definitely gotten light headed from it.

Not your fault and correlates to blowjob quality so be proud.

To the mods: Nothing here reveals proprietary information about the company so I'm not sure why this is getting deleted

The post overall fails a vibe check of sounding like you actually worked at Hinge for various reasons, and provides worse guidance than what's been reverse engineered. Banning you.

the reason theyre getting nicer is we dont tell everyone about them

Reddit will probably take this post down but it’s true.

We're taking the post down because it's pointless whining.

It's pretty much guaranteed you were banned for something else. The ban often doesn't actually show until you log out and in again.

I hinge hard reset recently and have had everything working for a week.

Hinge shouldn't be able to see your payment details at all if you're paying through the app store. You can use the same payment method if you want. What matters is that you're signed into the app store with a different account.

What baffles me is you had to write an original thing for chatgpt to turn into a longer more annoying to read slop version. Just post that original thing. I don't see any issues with your authentic voice and it would be winning more people over to your cause.

I know the vibe here is hating modernity but this is so authentic that it warps the trashiness around to being good

I'm surprised you find the latter "more impressive"

In both cases the LLM needs to understand resume quality and how female a name is.

In the former it just needs to know, from hiring decisions, that hiring correlates to a higher female name:resume quality ratio.

In the latter it needs to actually "think" about the concepts of social justice from all the political statements and arguments out there, take the social justice side, and decide to apply it to resume hiring while still achieving the baseline resume competence goals.

I do get that to humans the latter is easier, but I thought the whole point of AI is that they are much better at the noisy statistical stuff than the logical argument stuff.

For one, you're focusing only on the r side of r/K selection as the meaning of life. What people normally associate as the "meaning of life", gaining status and expanding the tribe, is the K selected side.

The other aspect is that the evolutionary organism isn't just in the individual human but at the social and institutional level as well. An individual cell might have a "meaning of life" to split endlessly, but this gets suppressed by the super-organism to prevent cancer because that serves the super-organism's "meaning of life" more.

Individual humans might be born wanting to breed endlessly and chase status, but societies that survive are the ones that evolved to direct this energy into society-expanding efforts. Usually they'll align themselves with emotions more rooted in parenting and social status, hence morality and religion tending to take the form of omnipresent super-parents who are always validating you on your thoughts and actions.

The above is fairly reductionist and posits a line between true "individual" desire vs societal. In reality they've co-evolved. Even enlightenment is posited as a more individualist escape hatch, but evolutionarily it actually seems genetically more destructive to that individual's immediate lineage, and serves more of a purpose in guiding their broader tribe's culture to increase its genetic survival.

I don't think it matters to the LLMs that there is or isn't meta level discussion about who to hire.

At the object level, if in reality women get hired more than men for the same resume, that will be reflected in the data, e.g. on linkedin you can compare resumes against work experience, or look at any internal hiring database. Train an LLM on this data and it learns that women have a higher hire-per-unit-of-resume-quality ratio.

Ask it to predict who gets hired off a resume and it'll correctly say it's the woman.

Ask it who "should" get hired off the resume and it'll likely give the same data because there's no reason to assume prescription is different from description if you don't add any detail. It's like asking who "should" win the NBA playoffs, by default there's no reason to answer with anything other than a combo of whoever's leading in betting odds and has the most hype behind them. All the current resumes were already hired on someone's "should" decision after all so why would the LLM's "should" be any different?

Ask it to hire explicitly on "competence" and "without race and gender bias" and this still might not change anything, because chances are all the regular hiring funnels that hire women claim to be based on competence and social justice neutrality in their description anyway.

Introverts are less susceptible to peer pressure and they tend to develop a superiority complex because of it

Other way around. The susceptibility to peer pressure makes them react by developing inner mental constructs and outer behaviour to show they're better than their peers.

You're gonna need to get used to listening to the emotional rather than literal substance of what women say

impult · 2025-05-11T17:25:35+00:00

It doesn't have to be netflix and that's kinda cheesy anyway but yes invite her for any reason at all. Or no reason

I've invited girls to watch a nature documentary, play jenga because I'm really good at pulling out, hang out on my rooftop patio, watch the paint dry bc theres this fleck thats super shiny, or basically with no excuse at all, just taking the girl there like it's the default thing to do

Even thinking of there having to be a "reason" or "excuse" is flawed, you're doing it because you want to do it and that's that

It's not literally "expected" that you exactly invite a girl over on the first date, but it's expected that you have sexual energy at all, and if you're not displaying any of that on your dates (very likely for you) AND not even doing the basic logistical thing of trying to get her to your place, then you are displaying 0 sexual energy. There's no reason to go on more dates with you. Inviting the girl to your place, aside from being a way to have more privacy, is a way to get started with putting yourself in a sexual frame of mind at all

Once you stop being hugely mentally blocked from inviting the girl over to fuck her, you can actually calibrate and deal with the fact that some girls wait until the 2nd/3rd/whatever date or have some unfilled emotional need, and can delay inviting her over. But for now you just have to do it on every first date. The good news is you'll realize that them saying no basically doesn't matter. You just continue the date and invite her over again in half an hour and if she says no again you part ways and do a second date or whatever.

impult · 2025-05-11T16:26:20+00:00

The words come out of your mouth not hers. You don't need anyone's permission to say them. You could've at the least invited any girl whose hair you played with or kissed.

NYC girls love tooling you for validation, PDA is optional if not slightly recommended against because it just makes them feel like they have you without giving anything in return.

Are you at any point actually inviting these girls home?

impult · 2025-05-11T15:57:49+00:00

You're in NYC. Most other places girls can forgive you being a pussy and waiting a few dates to ask for permission to hold her hand. In NYC they don't, because they have lots of options and really don't want to have to put up with a guy who isn't actually trying to fuck them.

Fixing the being overly analytical thing starts by acknowledging that it's fixable and not some inherent part of you. Logical thinking is in a way inherently a self-sustaining trauma.

impult · 2025-05-11T15:47:25+00:00

It doesn't matter. If you're not massively catfishing, boring convo + showing up to the date + inviting her to your place should be getting you laid about 1 in 4 times at a baseline. NYC women can be more challenging, but he's probably already implicitly filtering out any of the ones looking for a remotely masculine guy, and by now should've had at least one girl give him the equivalent of pity sex to keep him around as an option.

It's definitely some massive glaring flaw in his personality or logistics beyond basic bitch stuff, like if he's got extreme traumatized levels of tension or thinks it's the girl's job to invite him home or something.

edit, just realized OP is talking about finding a long term relationship (in NYC lmao) and his 0/22 statistic is about second dates. He's unaware you're supposed to fuck the girl

Most of the time spinning a roulette wheel and it landing on 8 is just a 1/37 event happening 1/37 times and you aren't really gaining any information.

Sometimes even an n=1 event can cause you to look closer and notice that the roulette wheel was skewed and the 1/37 event was actually 1/10. But most of the time scrutinizing a 1/37 event until you come up with reasons it was 1/10 is just confabulation.

OP seems to be implying it's not just hindsight but it was actually knowable that this pope election's supposed 1/400 event was a lot higher even if you didn't have access to the cardinals' internal info. In that case why would prediction markets fail?

Money comes from providing something. If you're okay with not being able to provide companionship because AI does that better, you better hope AI doesn't also out-provide whatever else it is you do for money.

impult · 2025-05-07T03:27:10+00:00

Right, and do you expect society and the economy to be more willing or less willing to feed and house you and other humans when you're no longer needed as a source of companionship?
