"Yes. When someone leaves the site, any verifications they have left disappear, though it doesn't affect your meet summary. That's how the site works" Yer I just think it's a shame that you lose a write up about you that could appeal to other users that maybe wanna hear what others say about you | |||

Can’t see the harm in that apart from if the users have left I guess you could have just invented them! | |||

"Disappearing verifications are so annoying i have been on fan alittle while now and had a few meets some have verified me others havnt but I had 3 really good and nice verifications and since then two of the people have logged off fab and ni longer members so although it still says I have had meets the lovely write up these people left me have gone. I dont get why the write up needs to go as they where nice to show and now it looks like I'm only showing 1 grrrr ok rant over. Has anyone else experienced this" Yes! I lost some veris and I agree it’s super annoying but the game is the game I guess | |||

" Can’t see the harm in that apart from if the users have left I guess you could have just invented them!" This  leaving veris from accounts that no longer exist would be very open to abuse. You would have people open fake accounts with fake veris (yes it happens alot) and then verify themselves and other multiple accounts so they can leave themselves a verification tree before deleting the accounts.
When the accounts are live you can look at who verified that person and soon figure out if its fake or not. | |||

Someone above said ‘it’s not a performance review’ .....you’d be amazed at how many couples treat it as one and contact you on the basis of what previous meets say about you!! | |||

It's good to have positive, generic feedback but anything too detailed about play often comes across as more cringeworthy than anything. The purpose is to confirm you're real, turned up and weren't a twat. It's a basic system for that one purpose. Not a star rating like uber/amazon/ebay. Otherwise it would be endless variances of "4/5 - would shag again" or 1* - turned up smelling of old cheese and wiped his knob on the curtains. A | |||

"I think most people will have experienced this yes, I wonder if they could make it show as a verification from UNLOS, like they do with forum posts? Its been suggested before. I think it's a good idea personally." Would be a ball ache for the site though. They'd have to have several versions of 'Unlos', such as 'single female unlos', 'couple unlos' and 'single male unlos' - otherwise straight guys would worry about showing an unlos veri saying "loved sucking his cock and felt great in my arse" in case people thought they might only be 'fab straight'. Although could work in favour for some.....

A"Actually it’s probably not that complex, the site verifications already have gender etc, eg ‘couple’ ‘man’ ‘woman’. It should be simple enough for them to add a symbol such as green dot for live membership, red dot for expired etc, just like they have recently done with the rainbow | |||

But the purpose of a verification is to evidence that someone is who they say they are (male, female, couple, tv etc.). If you cant see who left it then how can you have any faith in what is written? The system is already abused by those creating fake profiles to get verified. It would be so much easier for them to do so if they could leave a veri from a bullshit profile and then delete said profile, hiding their actions. The system doesn't need changing and losing a few words on a screen isn't the end of the world even if people think it is. And I also suspect there's an element of GDPR in there too. If someone wants to delete their history on Fab then that will include veris too. I've always been surprised forum posts didn't go 'poof' in the same manner. A | |||

Will also show the veri came from someone else, rather than the cut and paste method which does appear homemade
Would also be amazing if the site could write this feature in, then all of a sudden, all the veris we ‘lost’ reappeared, but from ‘Unlos’ | |||

A"To get a veri in the first place, it has to be from someone already verified. The site can also therefore spot self- verifications, especially multiple ones. Plus, why should the majority of ‘glass half full’ folks with a positive approach suffer due to a small minority who may abuse the system? They can be ed out by admin for sure and would soon get reported anyway, but at the end of the day, with or without veri’s , you still have to make a judgement call on that person and would most likely expect a few current examples in addition to the UNLOS ones..... | |||

With all the angst they often cause maybe it would be a benefit if they were turned off or all anonymous? There'd be no veri stalking. No bitching about who's met who and why they won't meet you. No worries about what a veri should contain, how graphic they should be and what potentially puts people off. No adverse effects on your chances of meeting someone because someone you previously met once met someone who many months ago had a two minute chat with another user in a club who four years previously had safe sex with someone who's subsequently had a social meet with a bi male who once met a couple who went to a club with (but didn't play with) someone who once went bare back with a tv admirer? Ok. Maybe over the top (I'm bored!). But trust me. Veris can cause as many problems being visible as they do by disappearing. Losing them isn't the end of the world.
