Fortunately I think you can spot a fake a mile off. But there seems to be more lately - anyone agree?

There are two in partocular coming up on my local feed a lot who are so blatantly fake it makes me wonder why they bother?!

If you know that they are fake report them. If you suspect they are fake then just pass them by. Not worth worrying about surely?

In the last week I've probably seen about five new ones and been contacted by a further five old ones.

Hmm!

I just love how they always want... Bare back at any opportunity with as many guys and girls as possible... Are always horny... Etc lol.

depends on your success rate i suppose.

if your let down constantly then you will think that.

people shouldnt commit to meet then decide not to unless a real emergency comes up then its understandable.

all the homework about you liking someone or not should be done before arranging to meet.

so again,down to your success rate.

anyone who messes you around remove them from friends list if on it(because they clearly are not) and block them so they cannot waste your time again.

I don't speak to then it's a waste of time. I was just saying I'd noticed more popping up on the site.

Nor me, there has always been plenty of them and I reckon there will always be. Just ignore or block.

of course mate.

i understand the frustration.

just resign to the fact this is part of the scene and hope that someone who wants to meet will contact you.

We are not so much bothered by fakes as we find them quite easy to identify (and we feel the 'verifcation' system provides some confirmation)

What DOES bother us is the number of 'genuine' members who obviously cannot be bothered to actually READ our requirements and then have the nerve to get abusive when the error of their ways is pointed out to them !!

OH YEY to that ...!!

Some one said mine was long the other day.. Having cut it back to the bare minimum I find that I must make it long again just to answer all the questions one gets asked 20 odd times a day.

We are in a semi rural area so probably easier to spot. There are a number of "couples" here who, when you chat, only the man is available just now etc. etc. funnily enough you can see that they all appear online within about 20 minutes of each other, go offline then a few hours later all on again within a short period of time. I'd bet my shirt they're all a guy pretending but that's not enough to do anything about it.

I'm actually a manniquin controlled by a communist collective of dormice.

Does that make me more or less fake than Kevin the builder?

Always depends on what you classify as fake doesn't it?

There's a guy in my area always puts up

status updates in capital letters bemoaning the timewasters and fakes. Yesterday I pm'd him to ask why, it turns out that people who don't reply to him even though he's polite and sends pics are fakes.

A couple of months ago I saw a new couples profile looking for TV's in this area had popped up. They were unverified by photo but had a glowing veri by meeting from a single guy. I clicked on his profile too, he had a veri back from them, also glowing. Trouble was, in both their profile texts they had mispelled a word. Mispelled it the same way too. And not a word that's easy to get wrong. So reported it and both profiles went soon after.

So the system works if you can do a bit of checking. If you can't be bothered its your own look out. I don't think you can eliminate the risk of being duped by a fake totally, but you can minimise it.

So if the profiles and the veris can be fakes, how do you identify the genuine ones?

We have also had them , normally mid twenties , full of complements and then want you to fill them with cum .

Then we point out the safe sex only bit on our profile and it goes quiet .

Ho hum

That is not really an indication of being a fake. Lol

I had actually thought the fakes were getting less. But maybe because of how I have my settings and I'm not looking for females etc.

The verification system is the best we have and one of the better ones on swinging websites.

However, it has its problems and like any system can be easily gotten around, the removal of phone verification as a method was good but that still left a lot of profiles who were verified at the time and can go on and verify other profiles etc etc.

Like everything in life you need to be sensible and careful plenty of verified profiles are quite clearly fake and all it is at this point is a good indicator they "might" be real.
