This is really strange. Before I was getting dozens of tinder likes, matches, going on dates. Then all of a sudden literally overnight I stopped getting likes and matches. Like 0. I didnt change my pics or anything. Went literally overnight from dozens of likes and matches every week to 0. Why is this? Since then Ive tried using different pics, deleted my account, using different email address, facebook, and nothing is working. Why is this?

Experienced the same thing. It is literally stone dead on tinder rn. I'm guessing it is because of winter.

Could be the algorithm. Heard of how they promote your profile a lot in the beginning, maybe to get you hooked. And then it dies down.

You could try buying subscriptions or boosts to get more matches.

Or try other dating apps. There's a ton out there (Tinder, Bumble, Hinge, etc.).

sounds like a shadow ban.

dun dun dun.

there are several reasons why this could happen, such as swiping right on every chick or even resetting your account a few times...

fortunately its reversible. see playing with fire's guide on how to get unbanned from tinder

they do mention to use image cloaking software as part of the solution. you can use fawkes for that.
 
the right date makes getting her back home a piece of cake

Also, it is Supply and demand. Girls are overwhelmed with online sausage messages.

If they are busy preparing for holidays, I guess they won't spend too much time on dating apps

How long do shadow bans last for?

Not sure if a shadow ban is the case. But behavior that triggers it could be excessive likes, for example.

I didn't know that shadow ban exist in tinder or behavior trigger.

But tinder is for established guys. I have an aventador. Just that it's intangible. Females can't see the car. So I lost.

Perhaps the Tinder algorithm limits the number of girls shown to you because if you keep at the same rate you will soon finish with your allocated pool.

Other possibility is people are just busy and girls are not going into Tinder this week.

Sounds to me like the solution is to pay for a boost.

It’s seasonal - check out blackdragon’s post

Try again in January & you should be fine.

Agree 100% with that article, except mid-july (started gaming for real) to mid-september were pretty good and then it just died hard in october/november for me. But like he said, there could be variations, but overall he's right. Looking forward to January.

I too find July towards september to be pretty good.. but after Oktober there is always a slump. After February I tend to see the best surge.

My knee-jerk reaction to Black Dragon's article was: robably a mix of dogma and self-fulfilling prophesy.

Now that I looked back at this year: almost a third of my new lays were in January. I was travelling, so that gave me lots of lays but I also managed to pull two young really pretty chicks both of whom I first met in the summer. With one I met for a date soon after meeting her but wasn't able to pull home on that occasion the other I pulled from first date which was half a year after first meeting.

So, yeah, looks like indeed, that January is good. Buut.. if you are doing cold-approach this kind of thinking will just shoot you in the foot unless your discipline is sky high!

EDIT: Imo, the activity shoots up for single girls right after Christmas Eve. I'm setting up a date with a chick right now who has been a bit evasive so far and another I've met twice but still wasn't able to lay (And two is normally my last limit) just pinged me!
