Why do people keep old photos on their profile that are over 5 years old some have them on there from 2000....

And if you're going to meet anybody surely you want to see what they look like today not 10:15 years ago...

"Not entirely sure this is in the right forum "

Maybe it’s to remind themselves of times before COVID-19?

Yes it is their profile and their choices but would you prefer to know what someone look like today or 15 years ago

If people are on here just to chat and use the forums it doesn't matter how old their photos are

I think part of the issue is that the photos functionality is not brilliant.

I tend not to remove old ones just add new ones as I can't be bothered with having to scroll through screens to remove them.

Hi guys. I’ve got some older pics on my profile (frankly from a time when I used to be a darn sight hotter) - but I’ve also got some recent photos showing my current very imperfect self. I probably keep the old ones up partly out of vanity - and partly as a record of who I was and what I looked like. On no account do I ever try to mislead anyone though - I take great pains to point out that I’m older and fatter these days.

I fully accept your point though - I know of many many men, women and couples on here who use extremely old or misleading photos that bear no resemblance to the current ‘real’ them! X

There is nothing wrong with having old pictures on your profile but you must see the point up-to-date pictures is what you choose and say yes to meeting 2....

How many of us have gone to meet and the people you are meeting or not the same as their pictures and then they tell you to take him for 5 years ago....

We all change I am slightly heavier but I was 3 years ago it's my duty to let me will know that....

we carry a fair few photos all are in running order and our face pics are up to date. But we think misrepresenting yourselves achieves nothing the social is always live not by camera.

Maybe they feel more confident with it.

Catch the fish, then gradually introduce them to more recent photos and then a meeting.

Self confidence is big thing. People cope in different ways.

I have older pics on my profile as well as those that are recent. Partly it's because I think they are good photos, and partly it's to show that I've got some history in the scene and I'm not just a fantasist. (Although I do like a good fantasy as it happens!).

I suppose it's a way of showing I'm legitimate rather than just hopeful.

Of course, if anyone local to me would like to help with up to date, this minute threesome photos, I'll gladly accept your help!!!

Your profile is only 9 months old

You might want to check your security too. Some of your pics are widely available on the internet. Must have had them stolen?"

or another reason.

I have to disagree with the basic premise of your argument OP. Old photos can still tell you a lot about the poster, their lifestyle and personalities, what they are into, what they enjoy, and how they like it. Physical appearance is only a small part of the overall attraction for me, so I'm looking for more in a photo than just what they look like. Also as long as they have or can send a current pic does it matter how old some the pics in the profile are?

I think older pics are fine, as long as there are some recent ones too. I've seen 2 profiles recently with just pics from 2010 on.

Judging by the curtains in some of you pictures you are posting pictures from the 70s?

how did you determine the pics were from 2010?

There are lots of things I'd prefer to see or not to see on other people's profiles, but people post exactly what they want to post, and I'll defend their right to do it.

We have photos on our profile dating back years. We're on here mostly as exhibitionists and get a kick out of people enjoying our (mostly) well taken photos. The thought of someone jerking off over them is really hot! Looking back at them is a reminder of how we were enjoying our kink at the time.

We haven't added any new ones lately as we've just not felt in the mood. We're also not looking to entice people into meeting us at the moment. If a recent pic is a deal breaker for someone meeting us, and we want to meet them, then we'll probably take a new one.

They had the dates they were uploaded on and it was in 2010

But when you meet up and look nothing like photo it ruins the evening ! We just had waste of a day meet where photos had to be over 10 years old ! No attraction for me so we went home !

There a massive difference between having clearly archive pics on there as a record of happy times and good confident pics, to someone trying to deliberately deceive and trying to pass off ancient pics as being recent. Personally I can't see why you would set yourself up for failure by trying to decieve people. Like life in general, honesty is the best policy, but I love seeing older pics as well to see how people have changed over the years.

If fab updated the photo collection functionality people might be more on top of culling older pics.

At the moment you have to scroll to the bottom and delete individually.

Then do the same again, whose got the time for that. Come on fab give us a better way to move and order pics in groups.
