FabSwingers.com forum: Face pics

By (user no longer on site) OP

Hiya guys,

I've been wondering if I'm shooting myself in the foot.

On my profile I've put that I'd prefer to pop on cam to show my face rather than to keep a picture on here to send.

It's mainly to be discreet rather than aesthetic reasons, apparently I'm quite handsome ha.

I know a lot of people, understandably, request face pics so I just wanted to get a consensus on this to see if it was hurting my chances on meeting up with some sexy swingers.

Cheers,

I don't have a web cam, so I always rely on pics. It doesn't have to be a public one on the profile, just a private one sent in a message

Up to you, as its your profile. Just bear in mind the considerable amount of women who don't, won't, or can't cam.

camming is no more discreet than a still really, you have no idea if the person viewing is saving your image or how many people are actually looking at you while you cam. The only guarantee of discretion where this is concerned is to not be here at all.

As a guy you really need a face pic, as above even in private for discretion, to send in a message

Plus getting photo verified as well often helps reassure people you are who you say you are

Yeah that's true, I guess just have to weigh up the pros and cons of it. It's not as if I'm well known lol.

Nevertheless, thanks for the advice all of you.

Yes I'm rather surprised by the number of people in the chat rooms who take an iPhone picture of people on cam

no matter

Well the point I guess is.. you go into a room here and immediately there are a dozen join you.. therefore they see your face..

a private photo sent in pm means only one person sees you.

A face pic sent is quick and easy, most of us don't have the time, if the incling, to cam etc... Especially when there are children about, sometimes it just not practical to cam x

Am I wrong in thinking that simply right clicking on a webcam image will enable you to save it & you can also make a recording if you have certain software? Sending a face picture privately is no guarantee that it won't be printed and shown on the ten o'clock news. Golden rule of identifiable image sharing if you wouldn't want your Mum to see it don't upload it

We were in the chat room and a guy printed my pic off on can and wanked on it, freaked me out big time and then he was blocked but it's a risk we all take being on here

Wow, sorry to hear that. I guess I thought cam as a better option as I could be on temporarily to prove who I am and then go instead of permanently handing over a picture but that isn't probably a much better option either.

A rock and a hard place or perhaps a cock and a hard place is more appropriate.

Again thanks for all the feedback guys, appreciate it.

I wouldn't faff about camming to see what someone looked like. Plus I'd suspect it was an excuse to get me on cam to try to persuade me to play - it's happened before, more than once.

No difference between cam and profile photos, I always send a face photo with messages, especially If its a first one.

And I teach!!

We cam people to show face and never ask for pics, it is also to see if we all get on with a chat. It works for us.

I do not enjoy cam to cam anymore, and if the gent cannot send me a face pic via the phone, email or FAB, then I am not interested.

I understand but, whilst you don't have to believe me, I wouldn't be doing it for that reason.

Well if that's not an incentive to put up a face pic then I don't know what is!

I believe you and I realise some people are genuine. However, my experience is that many are not, so I'll always be doubtful and it'll be more difficult to get me to cam as a result.

I have a photo I can send people, without expecting them to muck about. Plus I am usually on here on my phone so I can't use the chat rooms.

I'd go with sending a photo. Very few people will meet blind so we all have to do it.

we have a facebook pic as our face pic, as then, if anyone wants to try anything, everything can be denied, as they can just have taken the pic from facebook and added a url to it on photoshop or whatever, to besmirch our good name lol.

no need to have a full body, naked face pic to send people.

Quick note - you don't need a cam to go into the chat rooms and view someone else's cam.

This. I don't and won't cam. It's not my thing at all. The number of guys who try and get me in Skype. Ask once, I refuse, ask again, you're blocked and deleted. If you can't respect my boundaries in an online environment then I certainly won't trust you in real life.

We pass profiles by that won't send a normal clothed face pic on here.

But everyone has different ways that work for them. If that's what your happy with then don't change it.
