Hey guys,

So I'm considering getting back into OLD. My current device is banned/shadow banned on pretty much all dating platforms. I've read the hard reset guide that was posted by pancakemouse on here. I just wanted to delve into my current strategy for hard resetting and would like any tips/feedback regarding my current plan. Currently, I am considering the following:

  • Getting started on only one dating platform and putting all my attention into that one platform (most likely Hinge as its the best in my area), that way when I get banned from that platform I can jump to a different one.
  • Utilizing Capital One "Eno", which generates a dedicated credit-card number for a specific site. The original intention of this system is to reduce the risk of fraud, but it may also serve a dual purpose of being untraceable for the dating website. Regardless, I will still use a credit different from what I used for my accounts that got banned.

Regarding the IP address piece, I've heard that unplugging and replugging your modem is enough to change your IP address. I don't think using a VPN would be a good idea, as its very likely the IP addresses associated with the VPN would have been used by someone else. Regardless, I think simply performing all the registration steps using data from my mobile device carrier, rather than WIFI would be an easy work around.

I've also considered purchasing a burner phone number on one of the apps (I think I used Phoner in the past with success), along with creating an account on my web browser (not app in phone) in incognito mode may work as well, but I am not sure.

Regardless, I think simply performing the above steps would be sufficient in working around the ban. I'd like to hear anyone's thoughts on this.

Everything sounds solid. But this part I'm not 100% sure about.

Using phone data sounds better.

Could always go to some local coffee shop that barely gets any customers and use their wifi to create the profile.
