Everyone starts unverified.

I've been on & off here for years,I don't have message filters on for unverified.

Actually chatted & met some lovely guys who have maybe been on a year without a meet because of filters.

In saying that I understand people who put the filters on due to their own reasons, which should be respected.

Too if you mean by meaning on a year and having no verifications I tend to ignore those people. There usually fanatatists.

Need to at least be photo verified. Met in person is preferred but agree that a decent conversation is more important and it's understandable if they've not been on for long.

I dont care if someone is verified or not, I just need to find them good looking, confident and have a decent personality.

A green tick does not guarantee all of that.

generally I wont meet anyone who isn't verified as its usually just not worth the bother of another fantasist timewaster.

if they have been on site like a year and not veri'd I'm completely not interested.

if its a Tgirl or a couple and not veri'd after 3-6 months, same again... not interested.

I have met unverified newbies, but get them to send pics and swap a phone number pretty early on in chatting or talk on skype/go on cam in a chatroom first to demonstrate being genuine, go with my gut on this one..

cam veri's dont mean much to me other than there was someone on the cam when viewed... in fact numerous cam veri's and no meet veri's make me less convinced that the person will ever meet than a newbie

Being new to this it's difficult to strike up a conversation with or without being verified. Even when you take the time to read profiles and add in 'code words'. People have their own rules for their preferences which is fair enough and I get that, but everyone needed to start somewhere . Guess what I'm saying is take into account when the person joined before deciding that they arn't for you because they don't have a verification, takes a while to find your feet and understand what's acceptable.

I don't have an issue with meeting someone socially if they haven't been verified. I've verified a few new people. We've all been there so no reason why you shouldn't give new people a chance to get on the verified Fab ladder so to speak x

We tend to avoid unverified people. We don’t get to meet often so prefer to leave new people to be verified by the many people who meet more often.

Been on and off this site for about 5 years, back then I had no problem getting meets I even started seeing someone on a regular basis but over the last couple of years when I've been on, I'm lucky to get a reply to a message never mind a meet, that's why I don't pay for the site anymore just doesn't seem worthwhile.

That's my two penneth anyway for what i's worth.

Have met unverified in the past thinking give them benefit of doubt but in our opinion it’s too much hassle. We prefer a more dominant guy and enjoy bondage/rough play. Seems some people think rough and dominant is giving a cheeky slap on the ass while saying suck my cock bitch. Don’t really have much free time so tend to go for profiles verified and we can see they are the real deal so as not to waste opportunities on someone who thinks they can but really can’t.

We joined over a year ago and dip in and out of this.

We are photo verified, but not meet verified. We’ve had 3 meets but none have been with people who were verified themselves, hence no verifications for us.

We’re happy to chat to people without the green tick as long as they are photo verified, but we have had our time wasted a few times as well.

However, we did get one nasty reply from a lady we messaged saying we must be fake as we had been on here for a year with no verified meets. As we know we aren’t fake we are happy to give other people who aren’t meet verified the benefit of the doubt too.

We find the prominence given to the green tick more than a bit of a red herring. Anyone can write their profile name on a bit of paper and take a photograph. That doesn't prove they're 'genuine', not in our book. Meeting verifications for us.

I was 3 years just photo and cam verified before I plucked up courage to meet

So obviously I will agree to disagree with your comment ha

If someone is photo verified it means someone from fab has seen evidence that they are real.

Do you not think the couples profile with one male meet verification, which could very well be a fake profile set up by that male (who is verified) could be a bit more dodgy?

No one wants their time wasted and we all know their are fakes on here. But thinking people are dodgy because they haven’t had a verified meet isn’t very logical.

Were you dodgy before you had your first meet?

problem i am having just now. i am photo verified, but still to get meet verified, and it seems folk are reluctant to talk to me just by the fact i am not meet verified yet, which seems to be a catch 22 situation. it's been suggested i go to one of the club nights and i might get verified that way, but, i get my kids at weekends, so it rules that option out as well. It's been the only drawback i have found with the site so far.

A verification is only genuine if you put yourself out to meet ...

Get fabbing and messaging and searching and browsing

Think the difference is between photo verified and verified by other fab users, it's easy and painless to photo verify, but then there's the matter that alot of users now want, guys especially, to be meet verified by others.

We usually go with meet verified. We'll meet unverified if we are out and about anyway and if its a no show then no loss to us. Had our time wasted before with unverified so not going down that road again.

Were you dodgy before you had your first meet?"

we knew we were not dodgy but thats not the point is it anybody can say that...it is about how a lot of other people think on a site such as this and that you will have more chance of meeting people who prefer to know that you are more than a photo.

my point is we would not consider a photo as being verified. It would not stop us talking to unverified people or a social meet but would think of them as unverified even with a photo veri until us or someone else meets them in person.
