FabSwingers.com forum: New members verifications

By (user no longer on site) OP

This is my third time on this site so i'm no newbie and i know how the system works. However, can't the site developers allow people who haven't been verified to verify others. It is tough for most single guys on here as it is AND alot of profiles stipulate that they will merely delete people who have no verifications.

Well i have recently met up with someone who also has no verifications but even though both of us know the other is genuine we cannot leave feedback and a verification. I know the system is open to abuse but in my previous two memberships on here i know for a fact verified members have verified people they have never met, so please can we have a system where non verified members can confirm the people they meet are genuine without having to wait on meeting someone who has a verification....which may never happen!

We had that problem for a short while but all we did was get someone to verify us on cam 1st and that was it - easy.

As long as not rude or pushy I'd have thought someone would be happy to do that for you or your friend?

Good luck

If you have verified friends on here then they could possibly verify you but I prefer a verification coming from a meet. Also I only have one friend on here who was the girl I met up with but who is new to the site and cannot verify me either.

As this is my third time on this site I know what’s what…but thanks for taking the time to comment, it‘s much appreciated! The current system is flawed because the forums are always full of people commenting how many timewasters there are on here (even the verified ones) so the verification system as it is does not prevent fake accounts or timewasters. I could quite easily set up a fake single woman’s profile and mess a lot of people around in a matter of minutes without ever having a verification so the verification system seems to be somewhat biased against single men.

I honestly think there should be a new system in place that allows people without verifications to verify each other.

Dont know how you can say that when all your verifactions are all by phone and you got no pics on here after 9months on the site...

People often leave the site and re join,could be personal reasons but that is no ones business!!the OP has got a well written profile and face pics so no,his profile does not bark out "steer clear" !!!

Why don’t either you or the female just get someone to verify you via cam or phone, then you can verify each other without the need to show the first cam/phone verification on your profile.

Or like other people have already stated…it could well mean I have a life away from swinging and sometimes I delete my profile and leave a site and come back to it if I so wish at a later date. I was an original member of this site but even so I don’t live and breathe swinging or fabswingers! And I prefer having verifications via meetings and not from having a chat on the phone, or web cam as meeting is the only way to properly show you actually turn up. I see some people still jump to conclusions on this site!

Thanks Shellie, I have just got my photo verification up and running!

"Why don’t either you or the female just get someone to verify you via cam or phone, then you can verify each other without the need to show the first cam/phone verification on your profile."

I guess it’s more likely that the girl will get verified before me; if so I’ll have to ask her.

I still think people should be able to verify each other, it would be a lot easier and the current system doesn’t prevent fake profiles, timewasters and no shows!

Could you not contact those that verified you before to verify you again?.

I'm not sure a free for all on verifications is the best way at all, open to abuse doesn't begin to explain it.

Hiya shagaloony...remember me....gothica lol. I'm back but keeping away from the forums this time as way to much aggro on there...well apart from this thread.

I can see what your saying but the system is open to abuse now. I know of many verified people giving people they have never met a verification as a favour, or to give them a helping start. Maybe there should be a feedback section which isn't a full verification?

Have to agree with Shag there,would definatly be open to abuse.

And why dont you contact someone you have met on your previous profile and ask them to verify you like Shag said?

I certainly do, and hope you change your mind about posting in the forums, often an interesting post, sometimes I agreed and sometimes not, but always seemed straight from the heart.

I realise the way the verification system is now is still open to abuse, but not as bad as it could be if open to every new comer. You are an exception to the rule as newcomers are, but just about every fantasist female man would suddenly seem genuine with verifications.

I wish it was that easy! I was one of those single guys that found it very difficult to actually get people to reply to an email, let alone meet up. The one woman i met up with from this site has long since left and i can't get verified by people i've met from other sites like PN. The other few friends i had never met up or even communicated all that much and i'm not going to ask them to verify me without meeting because it's just taking advantage of the system.

it must be really annoying especially when you have been on here before and like you said an original member too.. When i first joined the site there were only 60 members lol..

You have already had a good meet and is a real shame that either of you are not verified,but you have got a good profile and good pics so im sure you will get another one soon and get verified x
