How can they know that someone is not who they say they are, when they sign up?

The means to them out already exists. Just report to admin when you see them and they will deal with them appropriately

Its a hard issue to combat as the rate of them is astonishing but there are some good fake ones even getting everyone to photo verify doesn't help these days same with supporter badge best thing is cam to cam or snap chat cause u cant fake them. I'm sure more would be done if it could but I'm interested in everyone's ideas if anybody has any good ones

Maybe a cam veri would work as you cannot fake that

Here occasionally, but mostly somewhere else

How do you identify a fake profile?

I'm not looking for an example, I'm looking for a rule, ie "if a profile has x, it is 100% certain to be fake" - as that's the only way I can see admin "sorting the site out" any more than they currently do, which is with the assistance and support of non-fake users reporting specific examples.

"Cam veri from site administration would be great "

Another site (which I cannot mention here) do exactly that. They don't tolerate the excuses of, wife walking the dog/washing her hair/visiting the in-laws/abducted by aliens/etc/etc

All that proves is a person I'd behind the profile. Doesn't mean they aren't a fake or time waster. Also who is going to verify all the new profiles?

In what ways does this affect you OP ?

I've been here as a single and a couple, on and off, for 6 or 7 years

Not once have I felt I have been the 'victim' of a fake profile

I have, however, met some lovely people both socially and sexually

I am not denying that there is an element of keyboard wankers or an element of people just out for mischief.

There are, however, tools available to control this.

It strikes me that there are people out there who, rather than calling themselves to account over how they control their profile, their filters and their mailbox, decide that the best form of action is to deride the site, its moderators and its owners.

That's just poor form if you ask me.

How do you know they are fake? Bearing in mind some people scream fake at every woman that won't meet them, are you basing it in more than that?

You are making a huge raft of assumptions here:

1) That there are as many fake profiles as you claim

2) That the only genuine folk have photo id

3) That there are no genuine people who are not shit scared to do photo id

4) That everybody spends 100% of their time farming their profile: no one has time for that so sometimes we're active, and sometimes passive, but being passive doesn't make us fakes.

4) That the admins give a shit

The real scandal is that the admins have done bugger all to improve the site since they bought it, and that was several years ago.

This is the internet, it's a free site, everyone and their aunt can join, and they do - the genuine folks stay and have a great time, the fakes get bored and wander off to yahoo or instagram.

Enjoy the site and bitch less.

In the end you only get out of it what you put in.

I often wonder, how do some guys attract all the 'fakes' but others don't?

Is it the actions of the person who's attracting them that's at fault and not the site?

For everyone who's crying 'fake', are you reporting these 'fakes' so they can be dealt with?

That can only happen if people report it when they see it...how many actually do? Or do they just pass by a post/status/profile and think 'someone else will do it for me'?

If they are obvious who they are, why not just report them (at which point admin will look into it), block them (so you don't continue to stumble across them and move on (because life is too short to let inevitable dreamers 'ruin' your fab experience)?

So, why not just contact people who are well verified so they'll be less likely to be fake? Logic?

Putting the 'cum' in Eboracum

I've noticed a lot more people on the forums saying that there are a lot more fake profiles out there. Maybe the members should start reporting fake profiles and photos and support the Mods and Admin here.

I don't think I have ever come across a fake profile. I've seen loads of shit profiles that I waste no more than a second on but I wouldn't even know what a fake profile was.

Op are they fake because they don't want to meet you ?

And we haven't even been photo verified so I'll be fucked if we get cam verified.

Who has the time or inclination for that ?

Would be interested to find out what you mean by fake?

I've been accused of that purley coz I don't drop my knickers for just anyone!

Report, block and move on.

I'm sure if admin get enough reports about the same profile they'll do something.

How would admin do that op? If you think you have spotted a fake profile then report it,so admin can have a look.
