"Members definition of a timewaster varies though.. He said, they said springs to mind and in my opinion it would be difficult to actually verify who's story was correct.." Yep. I agree here. It is far too open for people to just lie about it against someone they don't like. In my experience we have chatted to people. An alarm bells have rang which caused us to not arrange a meet. The warning signs are there. And mostly they are obvious. | |||

"How about a flag for time wasters on their profile like the verification, gold or silver flag. This would be good ??" We've just put a Red Flag on your profile to let everyone know you're time wasters. Winston | |||

"How about a flag for time wasters on their profile like the verification, gold or silver flag. This would be good ??" I've just reported you for being a time waster, I expect to see the mark of shame on your profile shortly. (I obviously haven't reported you, but hopefully you see my point) | |||

"I agree, it wouldn’t work. I’ve had the same girl ask to make arrangements three times. We agree, then she disappears. I’ve been sat waiting for her to turn up and she pulled out at 5 pm. Hotel paid for too. Her response is she owes me nothing, it’s a swinging site. Yes, she is right, but there’s manners. She then emailed back a few days later asking me can we meet up at an exclusive hotel. Have fun in the hot tubs etc. Again, a no show and now she’s blocked me!!!! That warrants a red flag but the issue would be … who gets in first?" I’m sorry this has happened to you but to give someone three chances? Especially after her first response. It would have been an instant block there and then from me. Viv | |||

"This is a swingers site for swingers.. not Facebook.. or dating.. or exchanging recipes.. so the easiest way.. after one year on and no meetings or any interactions. You should be barred and let the swingers meet genuine people.. sorry if this offends" After the last 2 years of lockdown, the site would have no members. I've got a better idea. Revolutionary I know, why not let people run their profiles the way they want to run them? If people want to take a year out, so what? How does a dormant profile affect anyone adversely?

My meeting is almost completely on hold due to life circumstances, but I'm verified by in excess of 150 meets and in excess of 100 profiles. Obviously I'm fake? | |||

Sorry but if they don't show the first time I'd block and report them, if your fool enough to let them string you along and pay for hotels then you only have yourself to blame | |||

"You can report people who don't turn up for meets. More people need to do that. " This. Admittedly, i do this and very little to nothing seems to happen atm but I suspect that’s because few people do this/know that they can do this. I, for one, would just like to say the people who let someone get ready (dress, make up, nerves etc) for a meet & don’t show are irredeemable arseholes of the highest order. ***Full disclose: It’s literally happened to me in the last 24 hrs*** | |||

You should be barred and let the swingers meet genuine people.. sorry if this offends" Lol that just makes no sense, you making a big assumption that all people on here can get a meet. I find that it’s actually quite difficult to meet people from here, and I don’t think I’m alone in that. So if I don’t get luckily enough to meet someone in the next 12 months that’s it…? Sorry but the logic is flawed | |||

" You should maybe change the way you do your searching and vetting of meets if youve had that many. Ive been on this site off and on for 13 years and never had a no show | |||

" .. one stunning 24/25 year female turned out to be a 50 year old guy with a big chin .. " See....there's this thing called the Internet where you can have video chats with people. Apparently some new fangle dangled phone do this too. Blind dates are all well and good but if you're finding yourself being let down, stood up and duped a lot there are some simple things that can be done to reduce the liklihood of that happening... Just a though. ![]() | |||

"How about a flag for time wasters on their profile like the verification, gold or silver flag. This would be good ??" This is suggested quite regularly but is clearly unworkable. It's impossible to establish if a report of time wasting is genuine or malicious, and people have different interpretations of time wasting. I think that sometimes people are so keen to meet, they dindo due diligence and miss red flags. In almost 10 years on Fab we've never had a time waster or no show. Admittedly we mainly use clubs but all meets arranged via Fab have turned up. Nita | |||

"We’ve been accused of being ‘timewasters’ due to finding out during chat we weren’t compatible. So anyone’s opinion on this subject is purely hearsay" That's exactly right, chat is to see if you want to meet the other person/s and visa versa. It's not time wasting to chat but decide against meeting. | |||
