"Sorry new to this, are you talking about feedback verification? I haven't met anyone yet but that doesn't mean I'm not serious, just waiting for my interest to be piqued enough to go further! " You're photo verified, and even more importantly you have meaningful text in your profile, and posts on the forums. I am talking about profiles that have neither type of verification and generic material on display. "I met someone who wasn't verified, no profile pics and hardly any profile blurb. Then met her again, and meeting her next week. People rely on things too much instead of going with their gut feeling " I have met plenty of unverified men and a few couples (other website&previous account). My gut feeling is that these unverified women are suspicious because there is little substance in their profile or messages. But again I have spoken to people who deliberately have extremely little on their profile, yet there's loads to see and enjoy when the curtain opens. I am questioning both my reliance on the verification system and my gut feeling, that's why I ask for advice! Though I think an unverified woman approaching a man is a different dynamic to an unverified woman approaching another woman. I wouldn't go down the early phonecall route (I don't like calling strangers at the best of times), but offering to cam verify is an interesting idea, thanks! | |||

"Occasionally I get messages from unverified female accounts and I am not sure whether to bother replying. I feel it's too rude to tell them "get verified then I'll talk to you" but I am too distrustful to engage. So I don't, but then I wonder if I am ignoring a woman for no reason - I talk to unverified men and couples so this is not something that bothers me in principle. Like everyone else, I don't get many women contacting me - which makes me feel like I should be jumping at the oppportunity, but at the same time makes these accounts even more suspicious! What do you do?" Maybe it's different for women but I'd guess most men would reply to anyone. Most men get so few messages they'd be grateful of any interest. I don't think I've ever not replied, even when it's someone out of my area or preferences (even guys). Politeness costs nothing. But then I don't get 50 messages a day.... | |||

"Even though I'm straight, I get messages from what are clearly men pretending to be women, you can just tell by the way the profiles and messages are written and what they're asking. People have to be either photo verified or meeting verified to message me, so I don't trust that a huge amount now." Wow ok. That's what I am talking about! To make a sweeeeping generalisation I don't think women would proactively message people of an incompatible sexual orientation (whether gay men or straight women) the way men so obviously do. | |||

I think that's a reasonable generalisation, I tend to think it's only men who are daft enough to think they have a chance of success messaging a straight female profile as a female asking me to send photos | |||

What do you do?" I also get very few messages from women and most of these are from unverified accounts Frankly, I doubt that these messages are from women but suspect they are from 'women' I just delete and forget about it. I'd rather not waste my time exchanging messages with someone who is a guy wanking ferociously over his *** splattered screen | |||

What do you do?" It's a tricky one. When I don't have filters active I do get the occasional message from such accounts. I tend to think 'well I was one of them once' and tend to reply but I am wary. Hope for the best but expect the worst (the worst in this case being a man masquerading as a woman, a single woman who is actually in a couple angling for a threesome to fulfill her bloke's fantasy or someone who isn't sure about the whole lark and only wants to chat. I actually don't mind the latter). | |||
