Published verifications compared to actual amount

When browsing profiles and looking at other peoples/couples verifications of their meet ups.

They all seem to sound very samey.

Im guessing people dont display bad reviews of themselves which makes sense.

Are other people dubious of someone that has say 11 meet verifications but the user only displays one of them?

Makes me wonder what the other 90% said !

Peoples thoughts?

Some people like myself choose not to show them for different reasons. I don't show mine as I'm not a dog or a car that needs selling,, but shows I am verified in person

I don't give two shits about verifications. And I don't give a shit what people think of ours, either. We show the ones we want to show and I mix them around from time to time for variety because it amuses me.

I assume that like me they don't publish really old ones, repeat ones from the same person and can't show those from people who have left the site. I then apply my common sense and decide to meet them or not based on what I think of them through messages etc. and not by what someone else who met them had to say.

I'm selective in displaying my veris. I only have a selection showing of recent meets and socials. Some are too graphic. Some are repeats. No slight intended to the people whos veri I haven't displayed but some things I like to keep for myself.

No,I don't check that the count tallys up with the veris displayed as I know mine doesnt.

People leaving site, blocking removes the veri but keeps the number. I also like to mix them up a wee bit & I generally only show the recent ones.

Couldn't care less, maybe 10 of their previous meets have left the site, still shows on the summary but not as an actual veri

It is good input to know that a good number of people don't worry about verifications, surely? If they didn't say it then it would be assumed that everyone did care....

Nope, don't care if numbers tally up.

A verification isn't a review, this isn't TripAdvisor. To us it's simply a way to see if someone is genuine. A useful site tool but not 100% reliable.

Some of mine no longer show as the person verifying me has left Fab.

A couple I choose not to show because they are from meeting the same lady three times.

An unpublished veri could mean anything or nothing.

I only meet guys who had meet verifications to make sure they are real. Not fool proof but that's the best I can think of - so yes, to me it's important.

However I don't really read the verifications. The summary is enough.

We've got 34 veries from different people

Probably half are just from people we've met socially in clubs, we tend to only publish our recent ones.

And quite a few people who verified us have left the site

So we aren't even able to display them so the summary and displayed veries match up

Some choose only to display their latest ones.

Does anyone leave a bad or negative verification? You'd choose to block and ignore surely? As any verification doesn't have to be displayed.

In all our perving at profiles, yet to see a negative veri.

"Reviews?"

I often wonder what would happen if fab introduced star ratings lol

Much outrage and amusement..

Verifications are a little intrusive for me. I like to keep my antics private. However I always return one to anyone who took time to leave me one.

I don't pay attention to numbers or content

Some of mine mention my real name, some are a bit graphic. One mentions a social that turned into a play date which led others to expect the same. Much less hassle to keep them hidden. I am real and have been verified, that's all people need to know.

One of our veris isn't shown, because it had a load of typos in it and the person who left it for us actually asked us to hide it! They rewrote it, word for word, but without the typos and re-left it for us, so that's the version that is displayed!

If people have a green tick but don't show any veri's at all, I know for a fact they are well dodgy.

The TripAdvisor/ review comments- some people do actually think that's what the verification system is, no joke.

One of the main reasons I don't like the system because it gives people the wrong idea of what swingers are. They use it like a menu system along with the 'Interests' list.

Some people seriously do think that swingers are just a cheaper version of escorts.

I don't care about verifications, I only have 1 but I have met 3 men since starting this profile. Was on here before and had more verifications. I am also on another site. I couldn't give a stuff what people think about my 1 verification. They can fuck me or not, plenty of cocks and couples about. XXX

Yes on my old profile a couple of men used my real name in verifications

And I couldn't have put it better 're being real. XXX

Hull but travel regularly

I don't show most of mine but no one knows as I don't publish the summary. I only show social meet veris for 24 hours, don't show BDSM meets as I want this to be my soft innocent-ish account () and nothing that's graphic. Basically I show my very good friends to give a flavour of who I get on with most so I can find more of the same

We used to proudly display loads of our veris , but recently we have become a bit jaded with fab .

So we have taken quite a few off , drastically reduced our profile text , and removed pretty much all of our pics .

If or when we feel a bit more enthusiastic about it all we may change it back , but at the moment we don't really care one way or the other .
