I recently reactivated from same phone and same number and I noticed a huge increase in my results. Before it used to be matches the first two days then nothing now it’s pouring in and quality matches at that.
I did put up better pics though. I don’t know what changed with the algorithm but I’m liking it.

I used new number and immediately got matches, which proves that all my previous accounts were shadowbanned (used same number for reset every time). Unfortunately, almost no replies and 0 dates so far. Nearest girl is 50 km away.

A few hacks I discovered for tinder algorithm:
-never unmatch. For some reason if you do it a few times you will stop getting new matches. I've done this 4 or 5 times over the years and its always the same.
- answer back to first messages or you will stop getting matches (even if you aren't into the woman) just make a generic response to keep your tinder rating high
- talk to your matches. Again, not sure why, but the more you talk with your messages the more you will keep getting matches. Probably because it proves you are not a bot or something
- time: swipe around 7pm to 10pm and you will get more matches. This is probably just to do with more people being online at the same time and tinder programmers want you talking to your matches.
Hope this helps.

A recap:
Account #1:
Remade yesterday after 3 month hiatus. Get 10 likes in queue in few hours.. Buy Tinder gold. After buying Tinder gold, only 1 like in queue in past 30-36 hours. account is officially dead/shawdowbanned/whatever. Zero engagement on it now.
Account #2: Made tonight using Google voice. Free account. No gold, plus, etc. ~15 likes in queue in past few hours.
Account 1 still has zero likes in the queue, despite having Tinder Gold, and having the same photos as Account #2.
So now I am thinking its two potential takeaways from this:
1.) Tinder loads freshly made free accounts with matches in the queue to encourage them to buy Tinder Plus/Gold. These accounts are given algorithm placement priority to get more swipes (i.e., noob boost). Once they get your cash, its fuck you and back to lower priority in the algorithm.
2.) Tinder does not do the above, and the reason account 1 went ghost is because somehow buying Tinder gold associated my account with some mechanism/trigger that caused it to be shadowbanned. This means that even if you successful reset, one wrong move can immediately make your account useless.
Luckily tonight I met a dtf girl very keen on Bumble, so I dont have to worry about Tinder's bullshit for the next few days.

Did you use same google play account you bought Gold last time? If that is the case, then you have triggered shadowbanning because of that.

No I used the web version to buy gold, so it was just credit card and email. If anything, my Tinder app, which has been used to make all of my accounts, was downloaded using the same Apple ID, so they could have tagged me that way too. I dont know what happened, but I contacted support and got a refund.
I'm not playing the guessing game anymore. Just going to use a free account until there's a 100% proven way to stop getting handicapped by the app.

You want a girl who is pleasant (says hahaha a lot) and is able to banter with you while at the same time asking timely, genuine questions about yourself. There are few girls like this, sure, but those are the one you should focus on.
It doesn't matter how hot she is, you're frustrating yourself with girls who are autistic and entitled. ]

Yes, very few, the only girls I dated (and banged) were having a good attitude from the start.
Once I managed to dominate a girl that was being snarky and have her qualifying herself and putting effort into her responses. The moment I tried to build comfort she ghosted. Next time I'll keep the act all the way see what happens. . .

I have gold and just successfully resetted. 13 new matches but they stopped roughly 12 hours after reset. I performed another reset a few minutes ago; we'll see how it goes

I'm glad to see others coming around to my way of thinking.
Resets have been my bread and butter on tinder. I don't remember exactly what the algorithm was like over 1.5 years ago, but if I remember correctly the newbie boost used to last for around a day or two.
This is no longer the case, apparently. When I do a reset I get a burst of matches in the first few hours, then it grinds to a complete halt, as NextStop describes.
The current approach is as follows:
1. Reset your account like before, upload pics...etc
2. Leave the account on the free version (make sure not to click in to the blurred out likes box, this will restore purchases)
3. Let the noob boost run it's course, and check perdiodically to make sure likes are coming in (3+, 10+, 25+...etc)
4. When you reach an increment you're happy with, restore your purchase and proceed as normal.
Sometimes a fresh account will not get a noob boost, for some unkown reason. This method will prevent losing your restores on a dead account. If you're sitting at only 3+ matches after a few hours then delete the account and try again.
Do this every day, deleting and resetting as needed and you'll be getting a lot of matches. This will require you to pay for gold x2 per month but it's still cheap.

Do you use a new number everytime you reset?

I use a new number every 2-3 weeks when I do a complete refresh (new Google Play account + tinder gold subscription)
Keep using the same number until you run out of restores. You can restore your purchase around 15-20 times per account.
The day to day reset is simply a new email + facebook account. Takes less that 10 minutes to do the whole process.
Realistically speaking, you can probably just reset every other day or even 2-3 times per week and still do ok. This would allow you to use the same number for over a month.

So I'm completely new to game, I haven't had the confidence yet to cold approach during the day. I have also read about half of bang. This app seems to be doing alright for me, im 5 9, well built and I'd say I'm about a 7 minimum facially. Seems quite easy to bang from the app, met 4 women in the last month. 1 tried sneaking me back to her mums home the first night, fail bang. 2) met her and banged her in about 3 hours, solid 6.5 shes a plate atm. 3) met a girl for some drinks, she was complimenting me and touching me, made out with her in her car for about 30 mins before leaving. guess that killed all the sexual tension and haven't heard back. 4) Monday night, solid 7. pretty, small frame nice bum. Went for drinks, good vibe and ended up back at hers the same evening, meeting her again tomorrow.
You do have to filter through a lot of shit people, women who respond once or twice then stop, cat fishing fatties, ugly women etc but it seems like you can still pull from the app. I don't know what it was like before because I've been using it only for about 2 months properly. Hinge is shite, pof isnt much better so for a free app I wouldnt say ive found a better one

@Tinder Scientist
Any time you delete your account and put it back up (different facebook), you're resetting. That's why I make the distinction between a basic reset and a full reset (completely new account).
The terms don't matter, only the results. If you can get 40-50 likes within a few hours of a basic reset, then you should be doing that.
My ELO could literally be the lowest in the world, and I'd still get laid due to the exposure alone. This approach will allow your profile to be seen by a lot of girls, including girls who swiped left to you before (I've fucked some)
Feel free to ask me any questions for more clarification, but my current approach is as follows:
1. Do either a basic or full reset
2. Make a new email + facebook and put your account back up
3. Leave the account on the free version and allow likes to accumulate (3+, 10+, 25+...etc)
4. When you're ready to start swiping, restore your purchase and start messaging girl, get numbers...etc.
5. Delete your account and repeat the process the next day.
This method works. I have plans to meet up with girls for every night until next week. I'll try share some screenshots later.

If I were you I would swipe too instead of collecting likes, that keeps you "active" and ups your visibility.
Weird, I have mantained about 8 accounts in total and I never had to give them email/facebook. Just using the number was enough. I haven't used tinder in more than a month though, I'm trying to go 90 days without it as a challenge and to focus on other aspects of game.
I never tried a basic reset, for me it's not really worth it and seems like Tinder really looks down on this for some reason now. Might as well keep the account as it is unless I were in a small area with fewer profiles and I swiped on everyone already.
I suspect Tinder is going to release the basic "resetting" as a paid feature and that's why they began to crack down on it.

That may very well be true, Tinder Scientist. In the past (including my most successful times) I used to just swipe as normal and never use the gold box. If what you're saying is true then I may adapt my approach a little.
I'm using tinder from my phone so the email + facebook seems mandatory, but I'll do some digging. I'd feel like a fool if all I had to do was use the phone number, but I'll find out.
Also, what's this about maintaining 8 accounts? Is that simultaneously?

I've never had more than 1 account up at the same time. Does tinder not ban you for doing this with the same pics?
If not, I may experiment with having multiple, paid accounts running at once in the same area. The only potential issue is the same girl matching to both of your profiles but that's not a big deal.

The only way to have multiple active accounts now is to have multiple phone numbers.
