    Hornet

    I used to get 40 plus pages without paying extra to Hornet.
    Now I only get little over one page free.
    What do you get?

    I noticed the same. Some weeks ago, after scrolling some pages down, all profiles blurred. But some days ago back to normal.

    Re: Hornet

    If you use it on a PC there does not seem to be any restriction.

    My problem is that people seem to be unable to "unlock" their Private photos for me.

    I know, I really need to buy some of that holy water for $49.95/bottle that Pat Robertson is selling, or whoever the fuck the famous televangelist is these days.

    Just click on a random profile or two, you won't be able to see what they look like anyway.
    Most guys are decent, in their mid twenties to mid thirties. Invite couple of guys over, and have kick-ass sex.

    Re: Hornet

    I sent them this message:

    "I hope whoever came up with the idea of limiting the number of accessible profiles loose their job ... what a stupid idea ... making your app less user friendly."

    And got this response:

    "Thanks for taking the time to write and share your views with us. We really appreciate you taking the time out of your day to do this. Your input into Hornet is important.

    We know that any change to our app has an impact on our customers, so we always strive to keep that impact positive. The decision to restrict or remove features is never taken lightly and we try to balance this with new features being added.

    As you will have noticed over the last 12 months, there have been some big changes to Hornet. We have added many new features to the app, as we truly redefine what a gay app is. We are now a fully integrated social platform bringing you exciting, funny and informative Hornet Stories; listing all the Places and events you can visit in your town or around the world; launching our Hornet Community, which is where you can truly take part in shaping Hornet; and of course, continuing to offer Hornet Guys. These changes have all been brought about as a result of customer feedback and to improve the Hornet experience.

    We understand that you are disappointed with our decision to restrict the number of grid views allowed on the free version of our app. Offering this feature unlimited on the free version of the app certainly helped to define Hornet in our early days, but, it is expensive to offer it. We are moving on from that stage now and it’s time for us to amend that feature. We have done a lot of research into how our customers use Hornet, and we discovered that the majority of our customers simply do not need an unlimited grid view. Very few of our users scroll extensively and even fewer engage with guys who are further down the grid. If an unrestricted grid view is an important part of your Hornet experience, we invite you to subscribe to our Premium Membership. Our Premium Members still have access to an unrestricted grid. By subscribing to a Premium Membership you are honoring us with investment that we can use to continue developing and offering new features.

    For a very short time, we are offering Premium with a massive discount of 40%! Get it before the offer runs out!

    We have not however given up on our commitment to having the best free gay app on the marketplace and we still offer by far the most comprehensive gay app experience, for free.

    In addition to this, it is possible to get Hornet Points by being part of our Hornet Community, which you can exchange for Premium Membership. Have a look at our Community and check out ways that you can get involved!

    With all of that being said, this is not a closed book. As Hornet has always changed and developed, so we will continue to develop. Whenever we make any change to the app, we closely monitor the customer input about it. We will be doing that for this change, just like any other.

    To sum up, we truly believe that we offer an amazing app - both on the free version and on our Premium version. We are a very different app to the app we were when we started in 2011. We now offer so much more than we had ever dreamed possible. Check out the new features and become involved in our Hornet Community - we are sure that you will make a lot of new friends, have some great experiences and even contribute to the development of Hornet directly.

    Thank you again for taking the time to contact us. We genuinely appreciate it and your voice has been heard.

    Kind regards,
    Pedro"

    Re: Hornet

    Sounds to me like they want to follow Gay.com. gaydar, Fridae, gayromeo etc as the " we used to be the best, now we are shit, and have no users" Gay dating app!

    RIP Hornet! Long live Blue'D (for now!)
    Sent Hornet staff a feedback e-mail and commiserated them on the (forthcoming) loss of their jobs!
