" I for one, feel that if someone has been here for over a week and hasn't uploaded a face picture, then their profile should be removed." How about if someone isn't a site supporter they should be blocked from viewing user's public pictures? "Face pictures are important for distinguishing between those you've messaged before and those whom you have not." If you click into someone's profile it will tell you if you have messaged them previously or if they have messaged you; even if the last time a message was sent or received was years ago. If you have recently sent a message to a user they didn't reply to you will actually receive a warning if you try to send another message that you must consciously dismiss before you can actually send the message. "In the past online, not specifically this site, not badmouthing any individual but I've met people who are listed as being 40 or similar but they turn up and actually look closer to 70." In this modern age you could always ask for a video call prior to meeting. This can easily be done without giving your mobile number or any other personal details away such as your email address. A lot of people registered on fab work in jobs that are public-facing and/or don't want their friends, family members, coworkers, neighbours etc. being able to identify them should they stumble upon their profile on here. Any pictures that are made public should be assumed will be public forever including the site-specific watermark that is applied to them. Some people value their privacy which includes their online privacy. Their legal right to that privacy is not diminished by registering a profile on fab. Anyway, just my tuppence dropped from my very high horse. | |||

"I actually prefer it when people don’t have public face pics" That's actually a brilliant idea! Just require everyone to take a full-frontal nude picture for verification purposes (tattoos, scars etc. obscured) from the neck down then it's just a case of a paper bag or two if you do decide to meet! | |||

You only have to search for the website and log in. Even so, you can upload face photos and put them in your private, or friends only albums. No one knows what kind of photos we have in private. | |||

"There is an option on the forum to report "incomplete" profiles but it's ambiguous. I for one, feel that if someone has been here for over a week and hasn't uploaded a face picture, then their profile should be removed. Face pictures are important for distinguishing between those you've messaged before and those whom you have not. It also helps us to know exactly who is going to be turning up at our door or who's door we are going to be knocking on and what we are in for. I think transparency is very important in the swinging community. I'm not badmouthing other members or calling anyone out in particular but I am suggesting the way we should proceed as a site should be more modernised. For example, I've read from blogs that this website was created in 2006, at a time when computers and laptops didn't routinely have webcameras attached to them. OK, technology was a bit iffy back then but now, every laptop you buy will have a webcam attached to the top of the screen, it's not difficult to take a face picture and show who you are. I think Fabulous Entertainment tends to agree, with the option for reporting incomplete profiles there but I wondered, would YOU report a profile as incomplete for no face picture? A body picture could be of anyone, so could a picture of a penis and balls but someone imitating someone else would more likely be held accountable for identity fraud if they clearly displayed a picture of someone's face that was not theirs. In the past online, not specifically this site, not badmouthing any individual but I've met people who are listed as being 40 or similar but they turn up and actually look closer to 70. I wouldn't be adverse to a 40 year old but only if they look 40 and not much older. Have you ever been on a blind meet? No judgement here honeys, but how did you find it? I'm curious to know. Horace X" everyone has the right to stay anonymous and especially on here where over 50% are just here looking to see if they know someone to tickle tackle about. | |||

" It also helps us to know exactly who is going to be turning up at our door or who's door we are going to be knocking on and what we are in for. " That's what a social meet first is for! Nobody in their right mind would invite a total stranger to come to their home for a first meeting and nobody in their right mind would go to someone's home for a first meeting. As for not having a pic up, I choose to keep this side of my life private! It's nobody's business what I am up to. And not I'm not married-I have a vast range of social and professional contacts and my sexual choices/antics are nobody's business. | |||

"So in answer to your question I say after 2 weeks if no photo the profile should be removed." But as your previous post proves, there is absolutely no guarantee that a posted face pic is actually of the person the profile belongs too, so not much use really. Like others I don't have a public face pic on here, but I have got verifications from actual meets. | |||

"So in answer to your question I say after 2 weeks if no photo the profile should be removed." Seeing as you state in your previous post that they in fact DID have a face pic how would this rule have helped in your scenario?? Anyone can use any photo for a face pic be that someone else’s face or an old photo… If you are going to meet someone it is up to you to either take a punt that they look the way you think they look or do your own due diligence - video call them, ask for a ‘proof of life’ photo and/or reverse search their pictures. But the day you try and force me to show my face on this or any site like it is the day I leave and stop supporting the site - and I’ll bet I’m not the only one… | |||

"Have no public face pictures and neither will we, won't risk embarrassing those nearest and dearest with our choices. Have multiple in our friends album, hence we don't accept random requests, a lack of pictures will put us off, but it's their prerogative as ours 👍" see this is likely my autism and seeing everything black or white, but I don't see my sex life as something to be embarrassed of. and equally i would only vibe with people who are open about theirs. like no I wouldn't share it on fb "i just had a 3some lolz" but if a friend or relative finds me here then i don't really care about what they think, they're here too after all (i might block them though, depending on who it is). | |||

I don't see how it could bring your organisation in to disrepute, sex isn't illegal and as long as it doesn't stop you doing your job and you're not doing anything sexual at work, I cannot see it being an issue.

"I've had an upsetting issue this week with people (men) sharing my fab profile and telegram details without my consent. I will absolutely not be sharing my face photos on my profile, public or friends, anymore. There is no need for someone to have their face in their public gallery if they don't want to. If you want to request a face photo, ask them to send one in a private message. It's about the inappropriate and violating behaviour of people online who can't respect privacy. It's not about hiding or being deceitful. " Sharing - that will be because you are quite gorgeous! | |||
