Morning.

Just out of interest, Do verifications play a large part, or no part at all in your desicion making process as to whether you contact a fellow Fabber?

And please explain why if you'd like to.

I have a quick look down to see if they have veris, rarely read them or check out the profile of the writter.

So no, it plays no part in me making contact, it is more the profile text that gets my attention, a bit of humour goes a long way. A ranty list of don'ts means I don't bother with them.

Not for me no very little impact unless they have none at all. None would make me a little more catious but not stop me meeting them. Its all about the attraction amd flow of the conversation for me xx

If meeting for a social then I would have a glance to see if the person knew a mutual friend

If a play meet, I may have a more detailed read

I'm a bit nosey so I do like to have a little peek just to make sure they're fairly sane. It does make me a little hesitant when I see a profile that doesn't have any verifications after a year though to be honest

We put great importance on verifications and do read them.

The reason why? Various really, but the main one is that we will only meet men who have experience with couples, so if the man is only verified by single women we would be reluctant to meet. Verifications also give us greater insite into people's sexual interests or if we may be their type. Also if someone knows someone we knows then we get greater comfort that they are genuine. In short we need as much information as possible if we are go an meet a complete stranger, and we get that information from their profile, verifications, and from chatting to them. Then we can form a judgement as to whether it's worth our while arranging a meet.

good answer I might take a chance on a new couple or lady if I feel they are genuine though but I can see that verifications for single men on here are paramount!

To be honest, the thing that puts me off is an abundance of overly graphic verifications from other people, or if that person leaves overly graphic verifications.

Well that's a very valid point. I know many guys who are very experienced with playing with couples in the club scene, but meeting privately and forming the type of friendship we are looking for may not be their forte. It's very different.

We're not verified yet simply due to time constraints, young children and both working full time.

But it's very off putting to see people with hundreds.

Don't get me wrong, we're here for a bit of fun, but that many just isn't for us.

A lot of people have built up an extensive network of friends from the swing scene over a number of years as a result of attending parties. It doesn't mean all of their verifications are sexual conquests. But it is normal on the swing scene to have multiple partners.

yes people just assume sometimes that veris are all play meets, I think there should be a different veri for play and a different for a social. Might show the real swingers aswell

I read veris. I dislike the graphic ones. But funny ones make me laugh. I sometimes read the return veri too, why not?! That's what they are there for.

I have plenty of them but mainly for social meets because I'm just such great company

The only reason I look at verifications is to see if they actually meet! I can get that just by looking at their summary.

If someone has lots of verifications but they are all cam, then I would hesitate to contact them because I feel they are unlikely to meet.

As to who has played with who? That holds no interest for me.

I may also scan to see the ages of those they do play with, if they are all in their 30's they are, to my mind less likely to play with a 50 year old.

Yes and no. Veri's can be very misinformative.

Men often leave glowing references even if it was ok or boring. In the hope to get a second shot.

Veri counts and summary are just as important. However these can be manipulated by omission and then picking which ones you wish to display.

The above I have seen many times used by women who lets just say play a lot with differing men but don't wish to give the opinion they are more salubrious than they are.

Verifications should play no importance in anyone's criteria for whether they will meet someone or not...

This is because a vast amount of them may be fake, a large majority of them are tongue in cheek and most of them say that the owner of them is genuine... However what exactly does genuine mean ...

Verifications should just say ' xxxx turned up when they said they would and they looked like their pics, were the right height and age'

no bad idea, no insight into personality, body or sexual prowess these things can help get you meets. I know it doesn't really apply to women though on here they would still get attention anyway.

The men we've met privately all have similar things said in their verifications, and are along the lines of educated, intelligent and a gentleman. As we are looking for friendship as well as sex, these attributes are invaluable information on a website where so many men are focused on just sex and what their cock can do.

Me too because its obvious they prefer slim women and are only messaging you because they cant get anyone else.

The ones who leave verifications for big women saying how nice they are and when its a slim woman or someone they find more attractive they say how good looking they were, or the ones who describe women as if they were bits of meat.

I see what you mean, some of the 'he was the greatest I've ever had' type of veris left to others is actually a bit of a put off. It's kind of the goal to BE the best they ever had, and it's sort of a 'tough shoes to fill' kind of scenario.

One last week I gave up on for a similar veri, even though she seemed keen on me and I was keen on her, just very off putting.

So people who don't read are probably right.

Finally . . an answer worth reading.

To us verifications are VERY important . . and as the words do tell a story cannot see the reason why some may just look but not read? Maybe they have difficulty in reading?

The other thing about verifications is the words may confirm or allay any suspicions you might have, quite often you see something in them that is NOT on the relevant profile.

You believe and trust what strangers say about people on the internet? "
you can have some off very experienced swingers who have seen it all that counts for something in my book.

"You believe and trust what strangers say about people on the internet? "

Not believe and trust, but we do take into account what strangers say about someone. We are aware that people rarely write a bad verification, and if they did it wouldn't be displayed. But I think we're pretty good at reading between the lines, of what are just flowery words, and what really is a glowing compliment or a useful piece of information. Certainly all the people we have met do seem to match what others have said about them, and all the verifications that we have written for people we have played with accurately reflect what we thought of the person and the experience. Gathering this information doesn't stop us forming our own opinion, but it for us it certainly helps.

Brighton - even Hove!

You are wrong to think people don't leave negative verifications and that people don't show them.

I'm confident enough to show my negative verifications. Guess what? They have no appreciable impact on how I use the site or on how people interact with me.

Fair enough.

Yes, very true!

You have to start somewhere and using verifications to cross-check direct communication and the profile can sometimes say "We're on!" or at other times "Something doesn't seem right?"

. . but if you're one of those above so anally retarded that nothing will do it for you . . then why are you here?

The content is of little interest but who they've met and their activity frequency is! so YES! they're an important tool for us.

We find verifications a good guide as to what to expect , and they give us an idea of the type of people we are going to meet .

However we have met loads of first timers too .

The amount of veris someone has is not a bad thing as far as we are concerned . Unless it's a single female or a couple with no meets in over 3 months . We would see that as a waste of our time pursuing them since it's not difficult to make the time for at least one meet in that time .

I found not being verified a hugh pain in the arse. Not many give u a chance with out them. Yet they all have to start somewhere. Me persoanlly dont care about them, trust is there to b lost u shouldnt have to earn it (just my opinion)
