Can I make a suggestion about profiles, can you hold a profile until a picture is uploaded so the men posing as ladies can be stopped?. I think there is a lot of people sick of it and leave the site because of these people. And people sending abusive messages should have there profiles removed, no second chances removed, no refunds just deleted!. Thanks admin x

I'm assuming you mean photo verified as anyone can upload a picture of the opposite sex to try and say they are someone else? X

Rather than us change the way the site works you can already make it work the way you prefer by only contacting those who are photo verified

Not only that but you can also use the other filters to prevent, non verified members from contacting you.

You can search only members who are validated by meeting etc too.

Treat everyone with suspicion - use filters and filter your matches with you own validation methods, such as cam/phone confirmation before meeting.

Don't think photoverifications are all that important they would be more reliable if the shot had to be a body n face shot combined,

Sorry photo verification doesn't work - called photoshop... There are clever people out there as we have learned to our costs that use pictures of others plus photoshop and bingo - we have verification !!!

Reason why we look for person verification and demand chat on phone

Sadly there isn't. As has been said photoshop will help people get past the photo verification.

Users who are abusive should be reported to Admin. Also you can Block them yourself. Any site will be prone to fakes & people not using real names, pics, sometimes even Verifications. As disheartening as it is I focus on the genuine folk & let the fakers disappear.

There are many facets to fab that can help you sort out fakes they are pretty good, we for example will not even consider meeting someone without seeing them on cam in chat if they refuse they are obviously not for us and we move on. If you combine that with the other verification processes we think its as fail safe as it can be. Also if you think a profile is fake its up to you to help admin and report it. Posting in the forums may raise the issue it does not get rid or the fakers. Report

why oh why do people EXPECT admin to resolve all of their woe's?

if someone came door to door to sell tou something dodgy, nibe times out of ten you would send em packing with a flea in their ear, so use the same common sense when responding/searching on here!! check em out, make sure they are what they say they are..al

i would recommend any first meet to be arranged in a public place and ensure that a confidante knows your location/meet details. Arrange a check-in phone call after ten mins...

and as the above has suggested.. use your filters...

wisely.

"people who are not verified by at least two other users after two months should be removed we come across guys who wont meet after we ask them "

but some people use this site for other reasons. if they are not verified dont ask them for a meet.

For us without recent meet in person veris on profile (not just green tick) we wont meet simple. if they ate serious about meeting its easy enough to get to a social and get verified by a few.

Varified as what at a social??

Hardly going to say much about you, how does anyone know you are genuine or what just cos you turn up to a social?

Theres loads of people who go to socials for a night out and have no intention whatsoever of hooking up with any one ever for swinging

I don't see the problem. I have lots of verifications, and they're are all 'social' verifications. There is NO WAY that I will publish on here who I have had sex with - that's my business and no-one else's!

If that makes me 'not genuine' (in your eyes), or you suspect that I don't intend to swing, then just don't message me.

If 'cock' and/or 'pussy' being mentioned in verifications is essential to you, then you could suggest to Admin that this is included in the search criteria. Alternatively, you could just READ the verifications of people you are interested in, and make your own judgement about whether they are 'genuine' or 'intending to hook up for swinging'.

Fake profiles are so easy to spot, never have much info, never have a decent pic (and if they do its usually a close up of a fanny) and won't have been on site for very long.

Why do people insist on making the administrators responsible for their lack of common sense?

If something looks too good to be true, it probably is. So a faceless bisexual 19yr old female messaging you out of the blue wanting to meet for sex, and you replying and setting up a meeting which never happens is your own fault. Not the sites.

Likewise if you arrange a meet with someone who has been on for years and is not verified by meeting, and they don't show up. If you've been on for ages and haven't even got a veri from a social it clearly means you can't be arsed and are not serious about meeting, but like the fantasy of it.

Deal with it using common sense instead of whinging.

Here occasionally, but mostly somewhere else

Not sure I agree that men pretending to be women are driving people away from the site. I think I only ever saw one, and that always came across as too good to be true (plus, I think I was targetted as part of a windup anyway). Without wishing to be rude, if all you see is men masquerading as women, then I'd suggest questioning what criteria was being used.

I'm also not sure what anyone expects Admin to do about photoshopped pics - as with all pics we have the ability to report any we're not sure about and those are reviewed and sorted. What more could be done?

I've met several couples who have been on here for a long time and have no verifications and made it clear they did NOT want me to verify them and would NOT verify me.

I must add some people like discretion and I had been reported as being fake when I am totally genuine .... Being reported forced me to cam when I was just getting the feel of the site and didn't really want to do so ....,,. I think newbies need some time to see if the site is for them ...... So after 2 weeks if not verified should be asked to verify some way before account is removed

Happy swinging guys and gals

Reporting the fakes don't seem to do a whole lot anyway. I recently got told how to do the reverse image checks to see if there pics are plastered all over the web under different names which would point to being fake. Ive posted this in reports and nothings done so its pointless. Its almost as if the site wants fakes sometimes

i was treated as a fake for a while becaue i had no verifications i was ignored and to put it bluntly ostracised for being male and no verifications. its not easy to get verified as genuine by meeting when no one wants to meet you.

its NOT an excuse for fakers tho i have had a guy pretend to be female just so he could see my pvt pics its not funny ..

however verified genuine people do not become site supporters for no reason. site supporters tend to look after the site they believe in. so i dont chat to anyone unless they are verified in person and support the site ( at least that way i know they are doing this for the right reasons)

Not a fool proof method. I have come across a few fakes in my time here that have had a verification which turned out to be fake and were site supporters.

Because seeing them on different sites does not prove they are fakes. Some of my pictures are on several different sites, under different names. I don't just use this site.

But do you pretend to be from England here, American on another site, brazillian on another etc etc with different ages, different first names.

Its easy to spot someone who has the same pic but its the same person compared to someone whos just saw pics on another site and stole it

im genuine, my verifications from others are genuine and verfications of the guys ive met. Met some very genuine guys. met one not so genuine guy but thats another story lol.

Been inundated with timewasters, photo collectors and the ones who say they want to meet then suddenly ask for cam.

Most timewasters are easy to spot. Some arent and ive reported them (kept the messages and sent them to admin) and admin have removed them

REPORT THEM but keep evidence

I suggested something in site news thread about getting re verified once a month or so with a picture that is different from the previous one and also (new members too) to have a random generated word of the day that needs to be on the paper too.

Video verification would also make a big difference but I imagine that would be alot of data to control and support on the site, I have no idea.

we went to a social once - and didn;t even get verified from it..

not everyone wants to send verifications either whether u have played or not.

verifications are just a tool.. not 100% proof of genuinity.
