Man gets banned for life from Tinder for being a vile specimen of humanity.

http://www.unilad.co.uk/news/guy-gets-l ... -messages/

Has anyone here had a match like this guy?

Just thought I'd share this for amusement, and for people to feel better about themselves. Or whatever. :)
I think it's a very good reminder that what you believe are exclusive interactions with people in a digital age can be shared with anyone, and it can have a huge impact on individuals in many areas of their lives.

So remember, be nice! :D

Many people also seem to use Tinder as a way to feel better about themselves, toy with people or vent their anger onto others. It's beyond sad but then again there's so many jackasses in the world of every type.

Thankfully Tinder doesn't give a lot of information about you and as long as you use pictures that you do not use anywhere else nasty people can't potentially stalk you. You can block them and they'll be out of your life for good.

Ironically as it may sound I found it to be way more aspie friendly than the usual dating websites. People only know you like them if they like you as well, so the shame and awkwardness of tying to initially engage with the other is removed. Nowadays a lot more serious people use it too rather than exclusively filth looking for meaningless hookups.

Or how not to behave online in general for that matter.

Well, at least I evidently have more common sense than this idiot.

don't have jurisdiction over tinder ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

that guy is scary close to me. i live in santa barbara, plan to go to UCSB.

wonder what makes this place in particular crawling with weirdos. maybe it's the high rent that's driving them all crazy, you can overhear serious conversations about whether or not one can live in a storage compartment.

it was pretty spooky, watching elliot rodger's manifesto videos and recognizing most of the places in them.

Wow, that guy's a real jerk.

I don't get why they call him a troll though. Troll used to mean someone who makes up BS, like those weirdos on Yahoo! Answers who intionally ask ridiculous made up questions like "Help! I have a spiral galaxy stuck up my butt! How do I get it out?"

But nowadays the unsavvy media used the term troll to refer to anyone with outragous opinions and yes, this guys opinions are absurd but if he geniunly believes these ridiculously stupid opinions, he's not a troll in the true sense of the word.

Trolling may not be the right word, though what is to say he hadn't pre-planned to do this to women on dating sites? I suppose though if it wasn't planned its not really trolling more just inappropriate flaming/harassment. Trolling is usually more of a game, like you know damn well what you're doing its not just having an online outburst at someone.

You're right Sweetleaf but often the mainstream media doesn't make that distinction. The mainstream media is not very internet savvy.

He's too handsome to be a troll.

He's probably a wicked male mermaid.
