"Since we are new here and to the world of swinging , we were wondering why some hide their verifications? Well you can still see the verification count, so it’s not like one can hide there body count, then what is it ? " You can hide your body count. It's just a green tick then, no number. I personally don't like them, I don't write them and I don't want to receive them. | |||

"Partly because at least half my verifications have left the site so there is nothing to display and partly because there are some I no longer wish to be associated with. I don't have any play veries anyway and I find the term body count crass. " I beg to differ… Body Count is a kickass band fronted by HRH Ice T. They can stay. | |||

"I have seen too much of how people can react to seeing who someone they fancy is fucking. I prefer to avoid causing people unnecessary drama so I don't tend to show sexual verifications. I only leave the summary up at the moment so I don't keep getting the oh so benevolent offers to leave me a verification if I do X, Y and Z " They have only your best interests at heart | |||

"I hide my veris as I've had lots of issues from others on here. Often the issues have been cause of Jealousy (they got turned down by someone who met me, as an example). I'm reluctant to even give veris as well. " I’ve heard stories of people reading veris, then contacting the people someone met for the purpose of poisoning the well. It’s amazing how much ill will some people have. If it’s true. Which I hope it isn’t. | |||

"A verification doesn't mean you've had sex, could be a social or club veri." Indeed. 95% of my veris are from socials, especially group socials | |||

"Has anyone actually had a bad verification? I’ve often wondered this because my understanding has been a verification is a “ reflection” of your thoughts. All very subjective! " All of mine are bad - that’s why I don’t display them… maybe | |||

"A verification doesn't mean you've had sex, could be a social or club veri." Yep. And equally a verification doesn't mean you've met or even ever seen the person. | |||

It’s amazing how much ill will some people have. If it’s true. Which I hope it isn’t." A friend who has now left told me the same. He got messaged about me saying if he had been with me, she wouldn't touch him. He never replied. Not sure who would go out of their way to do that but it was so weird. Also had another experience of someone hoping they could arrange a threesome behind my back. I'd never met this person but they thought it was ok to message one of my veris to try and arrange. Was really awkward when I found out, my friend was in two minds whether to tell me or not. | |||

"Basically if they don't bang on about you in the right way or they aren't hot enough. Then they get hidden. " I don't display all mine as I don't want loads on show at any one time, because they haven't been kind. I wouldn't display an overly sexually one either. Personal preference. | |||

"Since we are new here and to the world of swinging , we were wondering why some hide their verifications?

They don't really say anything about me so I hide them. | |||

"Beyond knowing if someone is real or not, verifications are pretty meaningless. You have no clue who someone is until you meet them in person. Could be a lovely person you have a great time with who has no verifications, or you could meet a total creep who has a wall of shinning verifications spouting how nice they are. The sensible thing to do, get your verification tick and forget about them. Display a social meet or two if you really want to." | |||

"Since we are new here and to the world of swinging , we were wondering why some hide their verifications? Well you can still see the verification count, so it’s not like one can hide there body count, then what is it ? " Number of veris doesn't equal number of meets, and meets doesn't equal shags / body count. Someone could potentially meet 30 people at a party and shag none of them but still get 30 verifications. I hide mine because it's noones business who I'm meeting and what I'm doing with them. The settings are there for people to adjust to the privacy level they're most comfortable with. | |||

"I have had my previous public verifications used against me. Its bordering on psycho stalker shit to be honest for me when the newest/present meet takes it upon themselves to go searching looking for and convincing themselves about shit that's fuck all to do with them. Contacting or keeping tabs on my previous verifications to check if I have met them lately etc. Telling me about my past verifications latest status and profile updates because they are obsessively watching my past meets and my profile for whatever bollox they have convicted themselves of. Both mundane and a little bit concerning on my part whilst uncalled for and not needed on my previous meets part. " Jesus! That's definitely stalking and I would report it and avoid that person forever! Big red flags | |||

If it does happen, just contact the person, let them know, politely, so that everyone can look after their sexual health and get it sorted. It doesn't need to descend into nastiness or blame. | |||
