48 hours would be more realistic.

When I first got the new update review I got upset, I thought every message would have to be replied back to within 24 hours, Im busy, I know my matches are busy, I assumed Id end up loosing the chance to continue talking with people that Ive been having good conversation with.

That being said, its only your 1st message it will effect. The girl is 24hours to message someone she matched with, and the match has 24 hours to respond, if they dont thats when they go away. Ive honestly lost matches due to the 24 hour thing, you get busy, it happens. I do think 48 hours on both the female and the match side would be better, but at least it is not every message. Once someone has messaged you back, they appear to be safe, the 24 hour countdown notification disappears. If that changes I will be lowering my rating, people get busy, and after matching with my matches we typically dont talk every single day.
