Blocks

This app is almost perfect !
However one should be a paying user to block whom ever them wants, this is extremely annoying and creates a great environment for people to harass others.
They constantly message, one message after another. Even if it is just “hi” having received 100 “hi”s from someone gets really really annoying.

I have an idea for this problem; why can’t there be a “ghost” option that we can ghost people and never receive their messages giving them the impression that we receive their messages/videos/photos whatsoever.

The clue of how good it is in the default search

I use apps like Scruff to hook up primarily for NSA hook ups. The fact that when you open the app it defaults to the global tab rather than the nearby tab regardless of your wishes shows me that it’s not serious about facilitating hook ups because there is almost a infinitesimally small chance of hooking up with someone that’s 15,000 km away. I really never have a wish to look at peoples profiles that I have no likely chance of hooking up with and the descriptions within the profiles need to be able to be more descriptive as regards to sexual position and role so that I can quickly determine if someone is going to be a match or not. Grindr has its many faults but scruff will always be number 2 to Grindr if it doesn’t think more about how users actually use these apps.

Thank you insert app name here for your thoughtful, relevant and personalised response to my review. It gives me great confidence that someone has actually read my review and it will be considered in future development and the fact that the wording is exactly the same as you have responded with to so many other reviews doesn’t at all make sceptical that it was actually meant just for me.

Developer Response ,

Thanks again for your feedback. The Global grid offers a varied view of guys online, new guys who have recently joined SCRUFF, and guys who have received the most woofs within the hour. Although there is currently no option for making the Nearby grid the default, we will take your comments into consideration consider for future releases and updates.

Ethnicity isn’t really optional

Actually ethnicity isn’t optional and the other optionals in your profile aren’t either. Black, White, Asian, Mixed Race etc. Why use a quasi-scientific system used by fascist regimes? There is only the Human Race, Homosapien. A chihuahua is not a different race of Canis Familiaris to a doberman. Shall we bring back terms like “half caste” and measure skulls to determine how mixed a mixed race person is? They aren’t optional because you must choose so you can unlock all the rest in your area. It’s bad enough that you have to choose a ridiculous “community” that are nothing more than another way to categorise each other. Not to mention the “chasers” who are I assume only interested in the hunt, or rainbows, or dreams. Fix it Scruff, you are only perpetuating stereotypes and cultural division, not helping the community to find each other.

We appreciate the feedback regarding the options for community and ethnicity. We will certainly consider your suggestions for future releases and updates.
