I've had some of my best meets with people who've not been verified.

It's not nice to call people snobs because they wish to meet verified people. Doing so will harm your chances of a meet rather than help it. Lashing out and insulting people because they won't do what you want is not an attractive trait.

Nobody owes you a first meet just because you think you deserve a chance.

Plenty of people will meet those without verifications anyway. How many have actually told you that's why they won't meet you? Or are you assuming that's the reason in a lot of cases?

If you were closer I'd meet you for a drink. I've had both good & bad experiences with unverified guy's

Ah, so it could be that you're unverified but it could be because they don't fancy you or because something else about you puts them off. That sounds a bit more realistic.

Why do you assume it's that you aren't verified?

Our first 2 verifications were social through posting meets on here saying which clubs we were attending.

Then our next ones through more than social meets.

Never expected anyone to meet us without putting ourselves out into the community first

It's calling people who won't do what you want snobs. That seems reasonable to you?

What if I called you something unpleasant because you think you're entitled to a meet "to give you a chance"? I'm fairly sure you'd find that offensive.

You're calling people snobs for their preferences, which they are entitled to have. In fact, you're calling them snobs based on an assumption you're making because you don't know why most aren't interested.

You could have posted asking how to improve your chances of a meet, or with at least a nod towards it possibly being down to you, but you've decided to blame everyone else and call them names.

That's a very attractive trait, blaming others for your failure, I don't think.

Yes, you're absolutely right. It can't possibly be anything you are doing wrong. It's all down to everyone else and they deserve to be called names. My mistake.

Good luck getting that first meet. I have a feeling you're going to need a lot of luck.

We attach the word 'snob' to lots of things like Wine, Music, Food ~ I don't think anything else was meant by it than simply that.

And yes OP it is hard to get the ball rolling without a veri but if you stick with it, get yourself out there & known it will happen.

Your profile is a little bit sounding like pretty fantasist(ie clutched cock while writing), have a look at the many events that are going on, socials,clubs etc..

and to be honest..seven days?-You really need more patience as a single guy.

up to a pint i think she has a point.. in that if you start a thread negatively you will get a lot of people's back up... so i think that your reply is highly out of order...

on the subject of verification... as people have said, they take verification with a pinch of salt.. and as others have said, they put themselves out there and went to clubs and socials... so if it means that much to you, there are always avenues out there...

obsession here very much looks like a two way street here... the mythical green tick doesn't open up a secret club of non-stop debauchery....

It looks to me like a criticism of anyone who won't give to OP the chance he thinks he deserves.

Anyone has the right not to meet him because he's unverified, or for any other reason. It's not on to have a go at people because they won't do what he wants.

Yes, it's frustrating but every single person was in the same boat when they started here. It's easier for women but every man faced the same challenge.

I have a problem with anyone who moans about other people's preferences, particularly when it comes with names like "snob".

We all have preferences. Some will meet unverified people, some won't. Those that won't are not being unreasonable or unfair to anyone, they're just managing their meets as they want to.

If the OP is free to criticise people for not meet unverified people, I am free to criticise him for complaining about people with perfectly reasonable preferences.

Respect for the preferences of others is a pretty fundamental part of swinging.

Lose the sense of entitlement: no one is compelled to give you anything, let alone a chance! I find attitudes like yours off putting!

We don't meet people based on verifications. We used this site for ages having fun before we even bothered getting verified.

It's not nice to call people snobs because they wish to meet verified people. Doing so will harm your chances of a meet rather than help it. Lashing out and insulting people because they won't do what you want is not an attractive trait.

Nobody owes you a first meet just because you think you deserve a chance.

Plenty of people will meet those without verifications anyway. How many have actually told you that's why they won't meet you? Or are you assuming that's the reason in a lot of cases?"

If I'd read this first I would have saved myself some typing!

Yes snob is just a word but it could be hurtful depending on the context in which its used, so I think the point being made around the word is just because you don't see it as offensive doesn't mean others won't so think before you speak or in this example before you type

I'll offer help when it's asked for.

I feel for newbie men too but it vanishes pretty quickly when they start bitching about other people not giving them a chance and acting entitled.

The OP wasn't asking for help. He was just moaning about all the people with preferences that don't suit him.

^ Same here.

I'll meet unverified men too but only if I'm attracted to them, just the same as for verified men.

I have found unverified men much more likely to vanish days, or even hours, before our agreed meet, with no word but I don't assume everyone will.

Just a thought OP, but given that you appear to be appealing to verified users to give you 'a chance' and meet with you, perhaps you could have given the thread a better title.

Essentially you are insulting the very people you are attempting to appeal to.

What I would say though is perhaps you should concentrate your efforts on those who do not insist on you being verified.

This is just the same as complaining about those who are looking for people taller than you, or younger than you, or older than you, or of a different ethnicity to you etc etc.

You are NEVER going to meet their requirements, so don't get so worked up about it.

Consider also that you have been here a grand total of 7 days. One week!

What did you think fab is, Instashag.com?

Most single guys wait around six months to get their first meet, so you really need to be more patient.

Concentrate on making your profile the best that it can possibly be and familiarise yourself with the site and get to know people.

Thing is that just about every one overlooks is that a verification is meaningless. It's one persons opinion on another and has no bearing on what anyone else may think of them.

Others would see them as a guide to the type of fun they like .

And of course they show the person is genuine .

"Thing is that just about every one overlooks is that a verification is meaningless. It's one persons opinion on another and has no bearing on what anyone else may think of them. "

I don't care the wording of the verification I'm quite able of forming my own opinion of the person if/when I meet them, all it says to me is he meets up as arranged (well in theory it still isn't a guarantee he will show for our meet)

As Shag would normally say.....you need patience....then he would add a lol!"

i didn't even notice the OP had only been here 7 days and is already complaining... for all the shouts of "give me a chance".... it doesn't really scream time or patience... and an overinflated sense of expectation

"how are you supposed to get verified if no onw will give new comers a chance,i understand peeps have had there time wasted before ,but not everyone is the same ,if I said id meet I will meet fact,just a little frustrating

Lose the sense of entitlement: no one is compelled to give you anything, let alone a chance! I find attitudes like yours off putting!

I'm not alone in meeting unverified people. Even with the "coveted" verification there's no guarantee you'll be balls deep in pum pum. I deo think every one is taking the word snob completely wrong it did what iot was supposed too get people attention ,I no im not everyones cup of tea ,my argument is don't tar me as a timewaster because I cant get the chance to prove otherwise ,that's all x

Yes OP you got attention but you unfortunately have got negative attention that's actually the opposite of what you desire if you want to meet successfully "

Most of our verifications come from club meets which is a great place to start. Most of the people we know we met initially met at a club. Although you say you would meet people and not waste peoples time some people are not prepared to take that risk. Although verifications do not mean people are 100% genuine it helps people mitigate that risk of time wasting.

You've been here a mere 7 days, did you think it was instashag? You need to be patient I'm afraid, join in on the forums and in chat. Get along to a social near you and network. I would also suggest you tidy up your profile text, it's a difficult read.

I'll tell one of my latest friends that..she liked my verifications, they gave her an idea about what I'd be like..and it was about personality.

Some of us will give unverified people a chance. Some may not be willing to take the risk. There are people here who don't want to meet and just want the talk,who will arrange a meet and not turn up. There are also people who are nothing like they say or show on their profile. Try a group social if all else fails

I know you didn't,others did. Without a verification some people won't even look at his message. I verified a few men who had no response for months,not long after they displayed more. It may have helped them.

Don't just think that you can get verified by having meets, arrange to have a social with someone first. fabs not all about sex sex sex there is the other side of building up a social network but then I suppose it depends on what you are looking for.

That works for you. But I say the same back at you. Just because you like the social side doesn't mean everyone else does. As evidenced by the many posts I've seen saying so. We are all individuals on here. I went to a social at the end of July. Not a single veri. Do I care? Yes and no. I had a good night. But would have been nice to have some veris.

To be fair OP, I can understand exactly why some people won't meet unverified users.

From my own experience, every single unverified user that I have arranged to meet has been a no-show.

I agree, that everyone starts off unverified. I was in a similar position myself when I first joined.

Something else that is currently working against you is how long you have been here.

This is why I said you need patience.

I have seen many people join the site and leave fairly quickly.

When others have become familiar with your username and your avatar over time, you will be regarded in a more positive light.

Welcome to the forums, fab and the world of swing!

May I take the opportunity to suggest adding some more content to your profile?

Inject a little humour, as mentioned previously, be patient!

Be polite

Never expect, use the forum to raise awareness and show your personality.

In the mean time you could attend socials or a club.

I hope you find this helpful and I wish you a very enjoyable Fab experience

"I suggest you don't suggest

I would be inclined to agree.

OP has been here 7 days and has already managed to successfully insult and offend many long term users of this site.

A good deal of them are the very people he needs to help with his dilemma.

He also needs to familiarise himself with site rules, particularly with regard to interacting with other users or he runs the risk of getting into trouble with admin.

"As a single woman i would think twice about meeting a guy with no veris. Purely as an extra safety precaution. "Phew, well she made it home safely so probably not an axe murderer.." type of thing :D"

That doesn't actually work.

Our best veris have come from people under duress while they watch me sharpen my axe and while Mrs ddc whispers "if you say something really nice he sometimes lets people go"

Lol I've been here over 3 years,being on the forums for years doesn't give you automatic rights to be respected or listened to. I would say being on here has soured some of them and as some aren't actually meeting they haven't really been kept in the loop,so to speak. That's what I think anyway,but I'm only really here for the sex

I never suggested for one moment that you are stupid. My 'dictionary' comment was in response to your comment about 'snob' being 'just a word'

All words have meanings. That was the point I was trying to make. But perhaps you can see the problem here. I did not intend to offend, but you have taken offence by my comments - and that is precisely the point some of us have been making. Sometimes we can offend unintentionally. We can either choose to apologise for any offence caused and learn from the experience or lash out.

He suggested you look up the word snob, since you've declared several times it isn't an insult. Then you might realise why it's not a nice thing to call people just because they don't want to meet you.

You don't like what you have interpreted as someone calling you stupid but it's ok for you to call people snobs. Whatever.

He wasn't personally calling anyone a snob though. I can see where he's coming from in calling people snobs. Calling someone stupid is far,far worse. IMO.

They don't have to be personally directed for someone to think they are out of order.

The OP started off negatively by calling anyone who won't meet him a snob. He was then surprised to get a negative response.

Like I said earlier, respect for other people's preferences is a fundamental in swinging. Calling people names because you don't like their preferences is unnecessary and disrespectful.

I see his opening post as a newcomer asking a question, nothing more nothing less.

I've referred to people as 'wine snobs' before & I've been called it too so I fail to see the issue

Now if he had called everyone a c*nt for not wanting to verify him then I could see the issue..

OP has been here 7 days and has already managed to successfully insult and offend many long term users of this site.

A good deal of them are the very people he needs to help with his dilemma.

He also needs to familiarise himself with site rules, particularly with regard to interacting with other users or he runs the risk of getting into trouble with admin.

Has he really managed to do that, I haven't read every comment but he certainly hasn't offended me......people talking to me like im stupid that gets my back up and I will reply not everone likes me im cool with that wont lose any sleep ,I no what im about

He suggested you look up the word snob, since you've declared several times it isn't an insult. Then you might realise why it's not a nice thing to call people just because they don't want to meet you.

You don't like what you have interpreted as someone calling you stupid but it's ok for you to call people snobs. Whatever.

He wasn't personally calling anyone a snob though. I can see where he's coming from in calling people snobs. Calling someone stupid is far,far worse. IMO.

But nobody called him stupid. That was his interpretation of being told if he looked up the word snob he might see why some consider it an insult."

Gotta agree with VV here and it emphasises my earlier comments made about how things that are said as an impact on how they were interpreted. The OP did outright call all verified users snobs, (even though I read it as it was a word used for attention grabbing purposes and not as an offence), whereas he wasn't outrightly called stupid (yet he responded to the dictionary comment IMO stupidly)

I guess I got too much awesome in my life to gnaw away at the little things on here. Can't see for the life of me how asking a clumsy question gets so much faux offence.

Play on players.........

I've no problem with anyone asking a question. If they ask reasonably and I have advice, I'll usually give it.

Kicking this off by being negative about people, and their preferences that he feels unfairly exclude him, is what made me respond negatively.

Even if it was said with the intention of getting people's attention, snob is a word with negative connotations.

Sure, the word can be used in terms of 'wine snob' or similar but that's usually something you say about yourself or those you know, not about a group of strangers when you're complaining they are unfairly excluding you and not giving you a chance.

Besides, as far as we know, the OP may be sending 17 photos of his cock with a 'fancy a fuck' first message. It may not be his lack of veris that is the problem.

O o O oo

I think the OP got a very hard time over something of nothing. There was certainly no need to keep labouring a point for 175 posts or more.

Without reading the thread again I am not sure who wrote the quote from a post that I have copied just below but I think it needs to be picked up on.

"OP has been here 7 days and has already managed to successfully insult and offend many long term users of this site."

Being a long term user doesn't give anyone special rights over a newbie.

To the OP...welcome to the forum, please don't think you have to bow down to the "long term users" of the forum, you didn't offend or insult all people, it was just a couple of people but in the great scheme of things it doesn't matter as there are many other people on the site. I think you handled yourself well on this thread.

My opinion of your first post....some people meet unverified people some don't. If you accept that you will enjoy your time on the site better
