The popular dating app is coming down further on inappropriate and disrespectful messages.

Now, a warning will appear offering bad daters some guidance.

But it also says if their poor form is continued it “may result in your account being banned”.

The new alerts are classified into three categories: authenticity, respectfulness, and inclusiveness.

They cover in-app behaviour when engaging with other users, such as harassment, protecting users against advertising and impersonation.

“Globally, online dating is now the most common way for singles to meet new people, with 53% of people under 30 using dating apps,” said Nicole Blumenfeld, VP of Trust & Safety Operations at Tinder.

“These warnings are designed to provide transparency and alert users when they are not engaging in acceptable and respectful behaviour.

“By providing greater transparency to users about their behaviour, not only are we enabling them to immediately ‘course correct’ but also foster a better experience for the wider Tinder community.”

When users receive a warning it will remain as a visible message that they cannot delete.

They’ll start appearing globally over the coming weeks.

How does Tinder detect bad messages?

Users may be wondering how Tinder can tell if your messages are inappropriate.

The firm uses what it calls “real-time machine-learning” which is basically a form of AI that works instantly, as well as advanced technology monitoring to sniff out bad phrases.

Real-time features like “Does This Bother You” and “Are You Sure?” already appear to prompt people about their behaviour.

Human verification is also used when a person is flagged multiple times, with a special team that checks whether messages fall foul of the rules.
