Suggestion! (I’m sure this has been suggested many times). Everyone has to have a verified photo in order to join. I know there are ways of getting round it, but it might limit men pretending to be women abd vice versa (in rare cases).

You would probably lose a good percentage of the membership, specially newbies who would need time to decide whether swinging was a life syle they wanted to go with

How is putting a photo of yourself with specific writing easy? I didn’t say easy, said it was possible. For a very determined person!

My point is, it might discourage and limit which is better then nothing

There are photo verified blokes who manage to have fabbed pics of their impressive physiques on here. A bit of detective work and reverse image search reveals the truth.

Some people get off on it.

Determined fakers gonna fake (fake fake fake)

and they'll always masturbate (bate bate bate)

But the blokes will try and mate (mate mate mate)

No she is meet verified which is more reliable than photo verified. Anything that is enforced will more than likely result in genuine people leaving.

No but this has been raised many many times over the years and admin have stated they would not impose mandatory photo verification. I think that opinion counts as fact. If they chose to change their mind then that is their choice cos they own the site.

Meet verification's are easy to fake but a picture of a couple holding a piece of paper with your username on is pretty conclusive.

In all honesty blocking non-verified accounts is equally as effective as a Fab management not allowing them to join.

All your verifications would be impossible to fake though. That would mean having half a dozen further fake verifications for each profile that verified you. And then all those verifications would have to be faked too. The further you trace back the verifications and there are literally hundreds of profiles. It’s just not possible to fake that many.

A couple of unsupported fake verification's would suffice for most readers!

Isn’t there some sort of new legislation coming into effect in April that all over 18 websites with pornagraphic material have to have members age verified with official documentation ?

From the FAQs:


"Get Photo Verified

A great way to show you're genuine.

1: Write "FabSwingers.com" and your username "InsertUserNameHere" on a piece of paper.

2: Photograph yourself holding the paper with hands showing. Photo should show your face or full length nude."

I think the idea is to verify that you're of the gender that you claim to be, so a face or full length body shot should show that.

A PV is to show the gender of the profile holder, that the single fem profile is run by a woman, the MF profile has both the M and the F.

So as said above, either a face or full length nude.

This is in addition to what Fab ask for

From the BBC news page

People in the UK will have to prove they are 18 before being allowed to access pornography websites from next year, the government is to announce.

Websites will be legally required to install age verification controls by April 2018 as part of a move to make the internet safer for children.

Users may be asked to provide credit card details, as gambling websites do.

I'm aware of the mechanics of it, and I'm not trying to be obtuse, but that verifies absolutely nothing other than someone of apparently the right gender is holding a piece of paper...
