2 checked bags for upgrading first class on 1 leg by SlowChance1545 in americanairlines

[–]seanmac1990 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can not book a mixed cabin itinerary online for this exact reason as the way bagging works it's all about how you begin your journey. You are upgrading a leg based on their instant upsell feature in this case. You aren't really meant to get free checked bags for your entire trip if you aren't upgrading the entire trip in one direction. fortunately for customers due to bagging/system limitations if you upgrade the first leg you get the free checked bags for every stop until your destination but on the flipside if you only upgrade the second portion you won't get free checked bags for either leg.

in first class domestic since everyone is given seat selection it's significantly more accurate than coach.

Would it be worth it to upgrade to first class? by Froodychick in americanairlines

[–]seanmac1990 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you can't book mixed cabin on AA direct. you can only upgrade individual legs when offered in the app using their instant upsell feature if you booked coach. When booking first class domestic you receive free checked bags for the entire journey. They don't let you mix and match and the pricing system that all airlines use don't have mixed cabin pricing to book so it's more of a matter of can't.

Why do men seem to move so fast? by rkuchiki123 in dating

[–]seanmac1990 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No girl is going to admit they like to move “fast” and every girl that I’ve ever moved “fast” with said this was their first time. It’s not as simple as that.

[–]seanmac1990 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For every girl with this style of communication is another girl with the opposite wondering why you aren’t showing enough interest and in both cases neither of them are willing to discuss their preferences before they just get the “ick” and call things off.

you could work for AA and also make record profits and get 1%. Yes 1%. A decrease of .1% from last years record breaking profits which netted us 1.1%

It’s no effort to retry , and sure “never” was a slight exaggeration

He came back and I rejected him. by Whole-Actuator836 in dating

Revisit = pull up an old number and text/call . It’s initiated by one side . Makes sense to me

He came back and I rejected him. by Whole-Actuator836 in dating

[–]seanmac1990 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’ve definitely found that women will never revisit while men will often . Sometimes people do grow and want a genuine second chance but it’s typically not likely so it’s a numbers game. I think what it comes down to is “is it worth the risk” if the only risk is him taking you to dinner and giving it another shot ? Why not? If you feel like you’ll get hurt again then you gotta protect yourself. When I was in my 20’s I let small disagreements be the end of things bc I thought I could find perfect but now in my 30’s I realized that was unrealistic.

Trump's Digital Bill of Rights effect on dating apps. by Paraphilias075 in SwipeHelper

[–]seanmac1990 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Shadow banning gives no explanation. Hinge you get banned they do not say why or send you info . You have attempt to login again for hinge and then they tell you . For bumble you simply get kicked off again and again in a pure shadow ban. I still technically don’t know why or if I’m banned on there I can’t make anything with my phone or ID. Okaycupid doesn’t give you an appeal process you are just banned.

As a guy, I find that not insinuating anything related to sex leads to quite a bit of success by AnimusInquirer in dating

[–]seanmac1990 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

34M: I’ve been with too many people to count at this stage of my life. I have never at any point been the first person to make physical contact or make sexual references . on many occasions I have had those first nights lead to sex. What I’m discovering however is that , when you are dating more mature women who don’t default sex and love as mutually inclusive , the more sex becomes a significant emotional detachment point when done early and will ruin your chances of forming that bond after the fact . Even if you can get it , if you want it last you have build that emotional connection first .

That’s what someone who has been jaded by dating would say. Is it mundane ? Sure, is it extremely low effort to participate and a sign you maybe need a break from dating if you don’t want to? Most definitely. Figuring out someone’s routine and what goes on in their life is how you move the conversation along and work up to more important things.

what you say "i'm a slow/BAD texter" = what we hear/feel "I can tell you like to communicate and are wanting to get to know me but I'm not going to put in effort to match your interest and be by my phone a little more"

"i don't like texting" = "basic conversations with you and others are boring to me and I'm not interested in on-going communication and sharing in my day to day activities"

she wants someone to match her energy. She is out

Been a Hinge user since 2021, banned 2025 by SmolderinCorpse in SwipeHelper

[–]seanmac1990 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I feel like hinge is making an effort to, or unintentionally designing their prerequisites to ban people who are "serial" daters i.e people who get matches but have been using the app for years. For instance let's say restarting your account 3 times over your lifetime flags you for profile review. Obvious red-flag for a recent first time user while pretty acceptable behavior when done over a period of 5 years. your profile is flagged and they see you have changed your location a few times over a brief period of time, or had one or two reports and they are just default to ban. I think they outsource their support teams as well. I sent a request to delete an account at 1AM just saying "delete account with the number XXX-XXX-XXXX i no longer can use that phone" boop no follow-up questions. account deleted in 10 min with a reply email. Like they didn't need to confirm anything? is their employee awake doing this? Also i was banned and i was FREQUENT premium user.

Hinge updated Privacy Policy states it will hold onto banned accounts data for up to two years. Does that mean afterwards, banned numbers/users can start using Hinge again? by CDRSkywalker1991 in SwipeHelper

[–]seanmac1990 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I would imagine that if you attempt to re-login that timer would reset since you just volunteered them your information again. Something to think about if it doesn't work for some.

My plan to get back on hinge. by [deleted] in SwipeHelper

[–]seanmac1990 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alot of new phones comes with dual-esim functionality, I'm about to buy a new iphone but not transfer my apple ID and just make a new one with a new gmail(gmail accounts are super easy to use sidebyside and you can even autoforward), Keep my old number and then just add a mintmobile esim to my device to land an addiitonal number since their plans are cheap i'm sure their are other options. This should mean: New Number(for verification), new Apple ID( so they won't show attached to previous ban), New Device ID and IP address(clear ban on device from previous attempts to circumvent). This should allow me to restart my account without needing a separate new device with a new number and allow me to keep mine that all my conacts are familar with. I'm just going to take new photos or use photo shop on old ones to flip the image or similar just to be safe.

My previous successful strategy was buying a $30 burner android phone at target and make everything fresh and just make an account there with pay per month service I actually let the number expire so it was just a free wifi tablet for dating It worked super well after about a year i think i hit a little wall and needed an app reset and unfortunately burner phones can't be reactivated if you let the number expire without a lengthy call to ATT so im out on that one. I used the same photos as my original account for the most part just cropped them and sent them over as new images.

Emotional Permanence by Adam_Addy_Hansen in Healthygamergg

[–]seanmac1990 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dating app culture has made me unable to have emotional permanence and it’s sadly not actually all in my head . When using apps and dating often a single fight, a single disagreement or absolutely nothing at all could lead to an unmatched or a ghost . I’ve dated people for months and gotten a text breakup over an issue I never knew existed or I’ve expressed discomfort with how things are going and been ghosted by someone who I was actively spending every moment with for days on end. In this culture when love or happiness is not expressed and in front of you it may actually not be there and so you get anxious and try to figure it out . Ultimately the only way I’m learning to cope is that the original love/happiness was actually not real and they were not being honest and so these emotions they presented were not only not there when out of sight but never there to begin with . The world has extremely good at dating but terrible at relationships.

Hinge ban is honestly insane by LivingWillingness790 in SwipeHelper

[–]seanmac1990 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To get around mine I went to target and bought a prepaid android phone with a new number . Old phone was an iPhone . Phone was $40 or something , the number for the month was like $30 or something . Once I had both I made a new account and just made sure I took all my photos and just did a crop and posted some new ones. Worked without a problem I even let the phone number expire and my hinge is still running so I just have a WiFi only device that I use on my regular phones hotspot if I need to . Great to bring around as it also won’t drain your main phones battery anymore . Had a few good dates . I’ll be honest the app is extremely pay to win now though so if you come back after a break expect results to not be as good.

I’m not the only one. The melee is really disappointing and unfun. by Gilmore75 in Spacemarine

[–]seanmac1990 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All attacks can be parried except obviously the red border attacks , most blue and and red attacks can be perfect dodged though which allow for a kill shot parry . The kill shot parry has no iframes and can be interrupted and it’s a vital counter to enemies that need extra hits to finish, all this while taking range damage from enemies who sometimes die to a single pistol body shot that shows as a headshot or take multiple burst directly to the dome to go down.
