Would someone messaging you with no verifications put you off or would you chat and see what happens?

Carlisle usually

I'd be a touch more cautious but I wouldn't write someone off for not having veris.

I thought so but interestingly it wouldn't put you off. I suppose only a meet is a guarantee?

I've been on here years, had many chats, many cam sessions and swapped many pics. Yet always forget to ask if they'll verify me!

Considering the amount of ppl that join and within minutes have veris , I don't pay any attention to it.

Let me chat. Then I'll see what goes from there.

Chat, see what happens and then arrange a social if they sound promising. I've met guys with great veris and they've still been a let down in some way.

Not put me off though May be bit more cautious. I got my first verifications through cam and would advise others to do the same if possible. Of course it only shows you are real but does not guarantee you will turn up at a planned meet

Of course not, we all have to start somewhere. I don’t have any Veri’s since I closed down my account then rejoined.

I’ve had a couple of very enjoyable meets since then. We had sex, didn’t discuss Veri’s.

Depends on how long they've been here. If they've been here over a year and no verifications then I would be very dubious. I would perhaps chat but with caution.

I hope it's not that long or I'd be more than dubious..

It's more finding the right people than anything else, if there are any clubs near me I would love to go so people can really see you x

I’ve been back on this site for 10 months, one (non-fab) gf for 5 months of that, 2 meets since - no Veri’s. Verifications mean nothing.

I’d chat and see what happens.

Because personally, when I had no verifications I was threatened with physical violence by an idiot on here who seemed to think ‘no Veris’ meant I’m a timewaster who he’d ‘hunt down and beat the shit out of’.

Turned out he was a keyboard warrior, but I very nearly had the police involved. Reported and banned (apparently), but I (carefully) tend to give new users the benefit of the doubt still, because I was misjudged myself.

I’m not looking for men, so I’ve no idea why he had a problem in the first place.

You can't get a meet verification without getting a meet.

A lot on here won't meet people without a meet verification.

It's a catch 22 situation.

The idea of veris is nice, but really, chat is always a better gauge.

And we agree, who we see/meet isn’t anyone elses’ business and this isn’t tripadvisor (writing reviews of people).

I personally don't like the whole verification thing.. owe in the swinging Life stile so of course people are going to meet and play with others.. I get it gives a little bit of information on how good the person is in bed.. but for me you can't beat a phonecall and a social meeting with the person to get a real opinion

We always look at how long they been on here, if it’s 2or weeks or even months than we would chat and see what happens but if it’s a year or more and no verification than it’s probably a dreamer or a pic collectors. We don’t show most of our veris as it’s got names

You ll get lots of that as your new to the site and your pictures look hot….sadly 90 percent of the time them Profiles turn out to be single men hiding behind couples profiles…we had a similar issue when we first came on so went on the cams for a verification to prove we were real

Exactly this.

During almost five years on Fab. I've probably enjoyed 100+ swingers club nights, in six different venues. That's not counting attending organised socials in Swindon, Bristol, Gloucester, Tewkesbury, Amesbury...

So, shock surprise, I have received quite a few verifications. I'd guess, though - I've never bothered to check - around 5% to 10% of those veris could be purely social, rather than from playing.

Meeting 250+ people - 50+ singles, 100+ couples - in five years is hardly excessive. It equates to meeting two new couples and a new lady during a five-hours club visit, just once monthly.

As in so much of life, context is everything.

Who people have met previously is of no concern to me. What matters is whether they match what I am looking for both in personality and appearance.

Given that you’re unlikely to exhibit a poor review they neither tell you what they are like in a meet, or how many people they have actually met in total.

They aren’t even a guarantee that they are a real person as fake profiles manage to obtain verifications.

I would be more wary of someone with loads of webcam veries, and no meet veries, I think webcam veries should be in a seperate page than actual meet veries.
