SCRUFFReviews of scruff.com

Maybe I initially wrote too much about myself in my profile thinking site was more than just sex as they claimed. But I re-edited it to 2 line statements so some members attention wouldn’t abort the paragraph & start chasing something shiny that caught their eye. If you actually believe Scruff members are seriously looking for sex, relationships OR friendships, forget the 3rd option. Even the least physically desirable on this would rather sit home alone than consider anything less than lewd propositions. But I left the first 2 options on the table to better my chances. Told I’m very attractive. In very good shape and in my mid- 50s I went cautiously into it this after a really “unfortunate” incident that kept on giving for over 2 years after it took place. In a week of being on I was blocked by 2 different people - while answering their questions in the middle of friendly conversation. Did they think I was going to pursue them if they said “not interested”?? Manners will get them further…after the lipo and anti- gravity boots work their magic. True to its name there is a lot of scruff on the website. I didn’t think about it but it’s almost a ‘Bear’ community . Why didn’t I see it? I’m just waiting for week two before I quit I wouldn’t last the month I paid for.

My account was suspended without explanation, and after three emails over several days, I’ve received no response from Scruff’s support team. I’ve reviewed the community guidelines and see no reason for the suspension. The lack of communication and transparency is incredibly frustrating for a platform that claims to value its users. I’m disappointed in the handling of this situation and hope Scruff improves its customer support processes.

Scruff could be the premium gay dating app but it's choked itself to death. Expect no users online in your grid. About 80% of users make a profile, see it's a dead and leave. Scruff have done nothing to fix this problem and they have years and years to beat the competition. The international section made sense when it was a new app. To make it app look busier -- its just a waste of time now. No point in chatting to someone 11000km away. Buying a membership is useless because the guys are not online. Most people you message will never return and the profile is abandoned. The ones that actually use the app, you'll get 70-80% replying. In 15 years I have had 2 meets from Scruff (thats how bad and abandoned it is). I had no meets with a paid membership. The good thing is your messages are delivered and the app works. It's been crippled to uselessness. For Scruff to have any chance of success these need to change: - more profiles on the grid - shorter time that the users remain on the grid - allow blocks (another crippled feature) - focus on close to you not 11000 km away There must be enough active free users to make a membership worthwhile. Messaging abandoned profiles is a waste of time. As long as they continue the formula of make people think they will meet someone, take their money and hope they forget to cancel; the app is doomed.
