Ghosting ratio

90 votes

Ghosting isn't the worst but it isn't the best. Have a button for people to report ghosting, ask if their sure, and have the app verify there has been no response for a month or so, then report their statistics on their profile. Get rid of people who chronically ghost others ( >75%)

Matching and never communicating is very lame. People who match and never talk or respond are unproductive members of the Mutual Community! Users who respond to messages promptly, and who let fewer matches expire without ever messaging should be rewarded! Put their profiles higher in the match order OR give them free Notes!!! Or a free month of Mutual UP! Responsible and clear communication should be rewarded!

I agree, I feel like the only thing I’m doing on this app is swiping and on a BLUE MOON I’ll match with someone. But, when I do they NEVER respond!!! we need to get rid of those people bc it’s frustrating bc if they aren’t on the app then you shouldn’t give them to me as an option.

You could let us report ghosters and then send them a survey,
Do you want to continue to talk to so'n-so...
-no,unmatch me because I lost interest
-no and block for harassment
-not comfortable talking to this person
-yes, I just got very busy
-yes but had a family emergency
-yes, no excuse for ghosting. My bad.

No. I hate getting ghosted, but people should have to right to talk to you or not.

I'd recommend Mutual just reworking the unmatch portion of the app.

I have swiped up, interested, on at least 50 singles and only 1 response. Is there an easier and simpler way to find a match for me to marry for time and all eternity? What?!⚒️🖖😇

In response to Aaron Huang's comment, no said anything remotely like that. Of course people can choose who they do or don't want to talk to (unless the government disagrees, but that's a different topic). By matching with someone on here, you're telling them you want to talk. If you get to know someone and change your mind, then tell them like an adult. If you can't even do something that basic, you're in no position to go on dates and shouldn't be here wasting people's time and sowing distrust.

Genius! Yes ghosting is the WORST. Anything we can do to discourage ghosting should be implemented. I think having a ghost rate that affects your priority in when your profile pops up in the swipe pool would be quite effective.

Agree. Those who dont talk or ghost should at least state a reason why before leaving you hanging

Wouldn't adding this feature make it so that you would always be afraid to stop messaging someone for fear that they will report you for ghosting? I don't like this idea. It wouldake me feel penned into a relationship that I want to leave.
