We have met one Lady that wasn't verified, glad we did as we now see her regularly.

However a lot of unverified accounts pop up and then go UNLOS after a few days, and a lot of verified users don't turn up for meets from what people say on the forums.

Guess you just have to go with gut instinct and treat the veri's as another price in the puzzle of if they are worth meeting.

Don't forget veri's can also be faked.

Good luck OP.

Yes the doubt is always there, try not to send face pics or give any details away.

I would suggest arranging a social meet at a pub you know well and ask a mate to go with you but sit on another table.

That way if they show all good, but you have an easy exit if they aren't what you want.

If they don't show you get a night out with your friend, win win.

The thing is, it is tricky to guess if they are genuine or not by not being verified, they might chat nicely to you but as far as I know could be a man pretending to be woman or something like that & also if they been on here for ages and not verified the chances are you will be waisting your time & those that put up a meet for tonight but not verified in over a year make me laugh cause I think who you trying to kid !

We're not verified because we are very slow starters and have spent a lot of time getting to know what's available.

I hope this doesn't mean we'll never find someone to meet us and pop our swinging cherry.

When you say your time has been wasted, do you mean you were stood up at an arranged meet?

If you're talking about spending time to chat to potential meets, then that's spending time, not wasting it...

I've met unverified people before and it was fine. I've been stood up by someone with loads of verifications. If you're really concerned, why not arrange to meet them somewhere in public that's not out of your way, like a coffee at lunchtime, so there's no harm done if they're not who they say or they don't turn up.

This is why we only meet people for a social first now, we will play on a first meet but we only meet out at a pub or restaurant. That way if they don't show then at least we can enjoy a drink or meal together.

I guess it is different for a single woman or man though, unless you enjoy being out on your own. But it still makes you less vulnerable for weirdos turning up at your door or you at theirs!

Well of course that's true, though the term "nutter" is pretty vague and so subject to interpretation, ...it could be someone who has mildly annoyed you for instance which hardly deserves the nutter label,....

Nobody can say for certain how many of them are verified, or indeed if it's a large number...we have no idea., but one or more on the site have attested to their relative sanity so that's something of a filter.which is why it's highly likely there are more of them who are unverified..

I agree. I think they are overrated and can be faked. I'd rather make my own mind up about a person and not go on the word of a complete stranger who probably doesn't know them from Adam anyway!"

Doesnt matter to me if they are verified or not, can usually tell if they are going to waste my time after a couple of messages.

Had the pleasure of being the first meet and verification for a couple of couples, we've all got to start somewhere

You still don't know them if it was a one off meet and just because someone got on with them doesn't necessarily mean you will. Gut instinct is my way of sorting who to meet.

I met someone who wasn't verified a few months ago

Had a great time but I'd chatted a lot with him on the phone before hand,no alarm bells rang,he came across as sane and sensible so we met and I've met him again since then too

Certain things will put me off meeting someone,lack of verifications on its own isnt always one of the things

I wouldn't meet a man who have not been verified by atleast 3 different people; he may be a nutter and I don't want to be the one to discover that

I wouldn't meet a couple or a woman unless they have been verified by atleast a dozen different people as in all likelihood, that is a guy

Whether that is 'fair' or not is not my problem and neither do I want it to become my problem

I don't think anyone is attacking the verification system. What some are saying is they rely on their own common sense and judgement when choosing whom they meet and won't make that decision based solely on a flawed system.

I'm not verified and I respect the thoughts and observations above.

However I would suggest the risk isn't necessarily always greater with unverified newcomers.

I've been here 8 weeks and most of my time is browsing the forums as opposed to sending endless meet requests.

I'd only meet socially in public initially and a quick phone call to get a feel for the other party would be reassuring.

It's all about choice.

It's not foolproof no, just like leaving your house all locked isn't a foolproof way of deterring burglars..houses get burgled....but it's a hell of a lot safer than leaving your doors unlocked, ...

Similarly you have some backup and some protection via previous experiences when using verifications...

We get so much grief for not being verified - called fake etc etc not sure why and people can be quite rude, especially as the Mr is down as Bi curious , it seems like all the time wasters spoil it for the genuine ones, we have had 4 failed meets due to single men with fake profiles just pic hunting which has put us off meeting any single males without veris, so can understand other peoples views of our profile - it's like going round in circles sometimes

Well just my two cents on it ... I've been stood up twice so far and both by veris ... Means nothing you just have to chat for a while and figure it out yourself!!

My two .... One was quickly arranged and spontaneous so I didn't really get time to chat properly.

The second we chatted for a few days and agreed to meet then .... Blanked the day before the meet and a no show.

It's all down to your own personal intuition really. You get a "feel" for somebody if you chat for a bit but still going to be left surprised and alone on occasions! That's just the way it is

Make sure your profile is as good as you can get it.

Yes a good profile is paramount and often over looked by most guys !!! You need to sell yourself in one degree but also need to be active. Here on the forums is a good place to be and you soon get an idea of who here is a genuine part of the community.

So for future meets I am looking at active forum users who seem chatty and those who have numerous veris. I've already chatted with some incredibly nice and very sexy people and hope to catch up in person very soon.

It's all about effort really !!! If your willing to put in the effort you will gain the rewards.

Women are conversationalists in most cases and if you wish to spend some fun times with a woman you first need to seduce her mind and appeal to her imagination. So introduction messages need to stand out, either by being fun, flirty, sensual or witty. Then maintain her interest with good flirty conversation and after that you will soon find yourself chatting !!!

Personally I laugh at the "Hi" with cock pic attached first messages!!! It's unoriginal and lazy and might on the rare occasion yield results but is mostly disrespectful. If a woman wants to see my cock she will either ask for a pic or will examine it up close and in person when she is bloody well ready to do so!!

While chatting though the ball is in your court and once you always respect a woman and treat her like the deserving princess she is you can end up having a lot of fun with a lot of stunningly beautiful people both inside and out. And most guys forget that the sexiest thing about any woman is her!!! It's her personality, imagination and her erotic mind that make for an exciting meet !!!

I have in my short time here come across many interesting people!! Women I'd love to meet, some to spend a night with and a few guys I'd love to sit down with and have a pint !! I hope some day that I will get to meet them, spoil them, make them laugh and enjoy their company!! And that's why I make an effort !!!

Veris have little or nothing to do with the effort I put in and are just a guide. While those I decided to chat with are active verified members here I reckon after chatting with them I'd still want to meet even if they had no veris!

Just my 50 cent on it all !!!

I'm not interested in them. I have one which I don't display to get me started in the forum and cannot receive them anyway because of my age filters which I'm not changing now. Some people are obsessed with them seemingly putting more importance on it than the actual meet, ie; need a meet to get verified. There used to be one guy on here that had around 200 and pretty much mentioned this on every thread he posted on which I found quite a turn off. I don't need to read a sexual performance review, I want to know the person is who they claim to be and that can be established by other means.

I think when a relatively new but unverified profile is prepared to be patient to meet but in the meantime chat on the phone is a good sign.

For me however, when a (female or coupke) profile, been on 3 months, only public photo is a thumbnail size one of female (stunning good looks) yet not even an admin veri ("flag"), won't show face pics of both, won't chat on phone and drags feet with excuses why not admin verified, but wants to meet me "tonight"... I run a mile...in opposite direction.

I don't personally know any lady or couple that will meet an unverified party (male, female or couple) and while I agree with your point we all started unverified, should the "verification olive branch" (by demographic) be extended by guys first or should ladies and couples be encouraged to "lower their standards" and give other unverified people a chance?

From a guy's perspective we are constantly being told "go to a social" and while this absolutely works (for myself and loads of other guys) should the same not be said to everyone and not just guys?

One if the other sites am on also encouraged this. Only problem at the time was the only "sanctioned" site socials were held at a club on couples only nights, and the guys told to "contact a lady going to see if she'd agree to pair up for the night" (even though there was no published guest list). The bug problem here was first time visitors to the club had to get membership including couples, and they could only attend the club together on that membership as though they were a legit couple.

essex just looking around

My opinion for what it's worth . If the person is genuine. . The newbies are always the best

Untainted by the site no bad experiences and genuinely here for fun .

At cougarsandcubs 80 per cent of guys are newbies and unverified and struggle to get meets. And without doubt some of the nicest fittest guys I've had the pleasure to meet.

9 years in the scene .. I know that a verification means nowt and a lot are falsely given or after a horney lust filled session

3 days later the person could be a right twat . Heard it a million times..

Take a gamble . Verified single guys can be a bit arrogant disresctful and fickle too . The tick dont mean a thing other than they are a male. . And people don't give bad verifications from bad experiences so you'd never know xxx

The only unverified profile I'm prepared to meet either has to have proof by webcam (usually in the chat room, privately if they prefer), or chat on the phone (not text/WhatsApp/Kik): something to prove they are who they say they are. If we've met socially but they were still unverified I have no problem there either.

I however don't accept, or give, webcam verifications: too many people walking around with only webcam verifications (no meet/social veris) yet saying "But I'm genuine". Also, too mnay guys falling for the " if you verify me that we've met, then I'll meet you " line.

Not really, just that it exposes how easily the system which so many seem to take as proof of reliability can be abused. I thought verifications were bollocks before that, and I think they're bollocks after it. If people need the opinion of someone else they don't know and have never met to determine whether it's ok for them to meet someone, they have bigger issues.

There seems to be a tacit assumption here that verifications are the ONLY things that people rely on..

I don't think anyone has specifically said that and that most would take them into account, and some may not meet anyone without a veri, but that is not to say that people regard it as the only criterion or tool.

We use common sense and judgement, chat, photos, forum contributions, etc., to assist our decision.

It's not just veris alone.

I've met lots of unverified men, to be honest I find them over all more reliable than verified members, I've had a few verified members cancel meets last minute or no show, being verified proves nothing besides they met their last meet that don't guarantee they will meet their next

"We were all unverified once.....used my intuition and i have had no problems meeting unverified people at times.

From a guy's perspective we are constantly being told "go to a social" and while this absolutely works (for myself and loads of other guys) should the same not be said to everyone and not just guys?"

I've mostly met unverified men. The last one I met moved in several months later and still here.
