OkCupid - Can't Talk Right Now

I know I'm somewhat terrible about messaging people back on these dating apps but even more so with OkCupid because it's terrible with notifications so I don't even know that I have a message to respond to in the first place! Maybe that's why I'm possibly missing out on some opportunities but even then I don't know if it might actually be a blessing in disguise.

I mean, take this Cory guy for example. He sent this message to me and within literally 3 hours of sending it he disabled his account. Dude, I get it that you're new but why did you have to disable your account within a few hours of making it and messaging me? Were you just that devastated that I didn't message you back immediately? Am I not supposed to have a life of any sort? Apparently I just can't win. I would have been somewhat interested in messaging you back but now I have no way of actually doing so. You didn't leave a number and I can't do anything more with this conversation save for delete it so it isn't taking up space on my phone.

Is there some sort of trend going on right now with people signing up for dating apps, matching and liking a bunch of people to then send messages, and then only end up deleting and disabling their account within a few hours? Is this the new boredom killer trend? If so why waste other people's time?

Have you signed up for something and then deleted your account almost immediately? If so what was it and why did you delete?
