"Just read the thread regarding some new profiles needing to be photo veri'd before full use of the site. What a good idea! These days most people have access to a camera, and with the option of not showing your face personal security isn't too much of a biggie either. So why can't everyone do it? I'm suggesting when a new member joins, they get a 7 day trial period with limited access (view only chat, view only forums, no messaging, 1 photo upload) until they get photo veri'd, then they get full normal access. If they don't Veri in that time all access is removed unless they photo Veri. Might help to stop the fake profiles or those not serious about this world? Hopefully 7 days should be enough for newbies to see what we're about and if this is for them?" You do realise in this day and age it's not hard to put up a picture of anyone and say it's you. Plus, discretion is the name of the game with swinging , I reckon Fab would be shooting themselves in the foot if they made it mandatory to send your face pic as it would discourage the 'newbie' genuine users from joining. From a business perspective , better to have hundreds of fake accounts especially couples accounts as it looks better when it says 32000 users on line right now. These kind of figures will attract more people to join so becomes a win win situation for Fab. | |||

"Dear Fab mods / programmers / owners Please please do something about the joining and verification process. Its becoming soo frustrating with the amount of fakes joining. It's rendering the site almost useless. Its very simple to fix as soo many people have suggested. It won't cost you anything apart from development time which you would get back quickly by membership of happy returning members. Happy to provide design input (UAT tester for one of the largest companies in the UK). Just please do something before we give up on the site" Your on over a year , surely you can spot fakes by now ??. If fakes are rendering the site useless then it's down to your own screening processes of potential meets that's the issue after a year. | |||

I have a highly technical way of verifying though, don't tell anyone though but I use a telephone and speak to people . Quickly sorts out the genuine from the fake. Are you willing to pm your telephone number. ?? No ? Jesus you must be fake . Only joking I'm sure your a real couple , it's just single guys that disagree with you that are fake. My bad. | |||

"It's not that we can't already spot fakes. It's about enhancing the experience we have on the site so we get less spam and perhaps more of a community on here. And yet again can I remind that photo Veris don't need to have your face in? A faceless full length body shot is also accepted..." I think it would be a mistake on the admins part to implement this. | |||

People after cheap wanking material. Mostly guys who want pics and the opportunity to interact with the person, get themselves off, then disappear off into the ether until they get an itch again. " I guess people use the site how it suits them. I can generally tell after a couple of messages if they are looking to do this and swiftly shut the chat down without sending pics. Mine are friends only or private, only people I know personally are on my friends as well. I find this helps a lot. As does blocking single guys and couples from time to time. | |||

People after cheap wanking material. Mostly guys who want pics and the opportunity to interact with the person, get themselves off, then disappear off into the ether until they get an itch again. " That isn't a fake profile though. It is someone who will probably never meet and having to PV a profile won't stop that. One way to avoid that is ignore them when they ask the 'so what are we gonna do when we meet, what will you wear, blah blah' message hoping for dirty talk to wank to. | |||

"I think the definition of fake is not the same for everyone. Someone asking for pics to wank over wouldn't be my definition" Exactly, how is someone wanting wank bank material a fake? Fake to me is a an account made by a bot. Even couple's that's really just a guy, a female account that's really just a guy isn't really "fake", more like fraud/lie. "Fake" is bounced around so much | |||

"Admin have said a PV won't be compulsory for all. If you set your filters so non verified people are blocked from mailing you then the site will work for you how you want it to https://www.fabswingers.com/my/filters " Best way to be. We won't accept anything from people without veri in some form. Takes 5 minutes to hold up a bit of paper, there really is no reason for genuine people to not be verified. | |||

" This profile isn't photo verified. But that does not mean we aren't genuine. We was regulars at the Attic before Covid. Mr uses this profile more for the purposes of the chat rooms. As the missus has a separate account also for chat purposes. Most of our meet Veri's go to the profile she uses. I could ask for people to veri this also but I really don't see the point in doubling up on them. As also said by another member. Photoshop is easy to use and it would be easy to fabricate a photo for the PV process. The site provides the tools for people to use and they do infact work well when used. | |||

"Why not photo veri, no-one expect admin sees it what's your problem" A simple answer, I don't want to. There are tools on the site to prevent non verified users from contacting you, use them. Problen solved. | |||

Personally I find verifications hard to fake. I'm not talking about 1 or 2 I'm talking 5 plus veris, with those people being verified by others too. The chain becomes to big to fake. 1st line of defence for me , 2nd line of defence is a phone chat. Never been stood up so far after many meets, so my screening process does work. | |||
