Agree, but over time I’ve developed an ability to sort the wheat from the chaff just by chatting and reading their profiles.

But I do wonder if I’ve passed by on some great meets .

Of course, have still had my fair share of timewasters, but it just makes the real meets more special

"Time wasters" means different things to different people.

All the fools that do not read a profile, but still message when they are clearly unsuitable, are the worst time wasters in my opinion

Latest one exchanged a few messages to arrange including those morning and then last one read and not replied to.

Will only be meeting verified people from now on.

lol ok then how could you possibly know what has gone on most of the time it’s people that are up for it when they’re horny and then obviously don’t have the bottle to actually meet and it’s not all the time however even 1 or 2 people spoil it when we go to the effort of making ourselves available and accommodating

I think your time is only truly wasted if you’ve agreed venue, date, time, etc, spend time getting ready and travelling only to get radio silence or a very lame last min excuse.

Am with you OP. We have a lot of couples message us and seem keen, say they think we will click, make all the right noises and then suddenly … tumble and they’re gone. Sometimes gone gone - definite time wasters. Sometimes their profile is then hidden. Sometimes just stop talking. I reckon there are a lot on here who like to talk the talk, like to perv on the pics, love the fantasy that it could happen but when it comes to the crunch … computer (or maybe partner/lack of one???) says no.

Oh yes, the horny wankers who aren't interested once they've got off.

I find chatting for a while without chatting sex (no wank-fodder) tends to stop that. I fell for it quite a few times when I first joined, but as the post above said, I realised I kept putting myself in a situation where I would get stood up, so I changed my approach.

I'm sure you'll find a way that works for you OP

Ok unless they’re aren’t any, perfectly acceptable conversations leading up to it but then reading latest message to give final details and not replying I fail to see how there’s a red flag there and too late to organise another meet with someone genuine

lol ok then how could you possibly know what has gone on most of the time it’s people that are up for it when they’re horny and then obviously don’t have the bottle to actually meet and it’s not all the time however even 1 or 2 people spoil it when we go to the effort of making ourselves available and accommodating "

I have no clue what the conversations between you and others are.

if you know "they're up for it when they're horny and obviously no bottle" if its obvious you had warnings . if its hindsight and supposition about horn and bottle.. learn from your experiences you're the common denominator.

"I had someone turn up an hour late for a meet after telling him repeatedly I couldn't meet if he was late

he actually messaged to say he was leaving 5 minutes after the agreed time & I knew he was a good 20 minute drive away so I replied saying leave it for that night, he saw it replied, saying it would be fine & still turned up, obviously it wasn't fine as I had plans later in the evening

So when he turned up I told him the meet wasn't going ahead, he complained he travelled & I'd wasted his time, I said I was clear in our messages that I only had a short gap in my evening & if he couldn't arrive as agreed it wasn't my fault and I wasn't going to rearrange my later plans to accommodate him

He thinks I'm in the wrong, I think he's in the wrong, if we were able to rate people it could start all out war "

Yeah I think it would but that’s really bad form to continue to turn up after you’ve given him that information

No the horny and ghosting is general observations from several years on fab not this particular case and as a reasonably well and recently verified couple we’re the stable part of the equation so I fail to see how you continue to assert that it’s somehow our fault that others aren’t genuine

Change nothing, keep doing the same thing see how that works out for you.. a guy called Einstein said to do the same things over and o er again and expect a different result is insanity.

I've not been ghosted had my time wasted in my years on fab my instincts processes red flags are working.

You have a good evening and lots of fun

Actually that’s miss attributed to Einstein however it’s not quite the same as having a conversation with someone that’s seems perfectly genuine only to be let down at the last minute and being on fab for years and having as few verifications as you means I’ll pass on taking your advice if it’s all the same lol

Time wasters are pretty easy to spot and deal with.

There are loads of threads on how to manage your potential meets.

Like someone has said there is one common denominator.

The longer you are on here the easier it is to spot the fake and timewasters.

Probably past up on some good meets but also pretty sure that the number of fakes we have passed on is far greater.

I don't think anyone has said it's your fault. It's not your fault they ghost or don't turn up. However the point being made is that if it's a regular occurrence there has to be a link or a common denominator and if there are red flags based on your previous experience and you don't see those or choose to ignore them then it will continue to happen.

I've been here 5 years and have never had a no show or been one because I get to know people before agreeing to meet and if there is even the slightest hint of them being flakey I stop chatting and won't meet with them.

In our experience most time wasters are guys (often posing as couples) who just want to talk dirty/fantasise but have no intention of meeting. Refusing to engage in dirty talk with new contacts soon reveals them out as does asking to see both members of a couple on camera briefly. The people who get conned tend to be those who don't follow these basic rules.

By a curious coincidence I've just had to point out to a potential suiter the fact that had they taken the time to read my profile they would have been quite clearly aware that a meet with me was never on the cards.

Nevertheless, I was polite when I declined their offer.

Your idea has been covered numerous occasions in the forum.

Moderator's have specifically said it will not be implemented, as it's easly open to abuse.

You need to mark it down to experience unfortunately.

Nobody is shooting you down. This subject is generally repeated frequently.

Unfortunately the answers are always the same.
