FabSwingers.com forum: Soi you agree with me..? Not verified should be removed

By (user no longer on site) OP

Surely I'm not the only one who think fab should up there site rules, you have obvious fakes on here constantly guys pretending to be couples,,, guys pretending to be women... And women on here wasting everyone's time... I honestly think if your not verified by at least pic within a 24hrs you should be automatically removed, and not able to see any other profiles until verified. especially as paying customers i think we definitely need to be getting more for our money! I know the case of if it not broke then don't fix it but there is pieces of this site broke, people are reluctant to put up pics because all in all any Tom dick or Harry can see them! I also think fab should adopt a tinder like style,,, as I feel for the couples and females getting constant messages over and over if they had a X button to click that auto sent a polite " no thanks this profile isn't interested" then it would stop people being able to constantly send time wasting messages and prevent people being verbally abused, sad to say there's a lot of Fukin creeps on here lol

Anyway it's off my chest now lmao Y-if you agree N-if you don't

N -

we were all non verified at one time - people are here for reasons other than sex - some have accounts for chatting and some for playing - just block non verified if they piss you off and ignore them -

You can filter out non verified.

If you get upset by people not replying a good way is not to send messages out. Nobody gets hurt that way.

I think giving somebody 24 hours is a bit harsh too though I'll admit I tend to steer clear of people that have been here for over a year and haven't been verified, not just on a fake/real basis but odds are they won't meet anyway

We've never been photo verified and never will be. Utterly pointless. The site have also been very clear that it will never be made compulsory. Use the tools the site gives you

Being photo verified should definitely be a requisite for creating a profile on here.

I don't think it will change though, as that would mean the site loses claims of having so many members

No.

Little point. Personally I find the only meaningful veris are those from meeting in person. There are those that have more of a tendency to lurk on the site and that's their prerogative. Some can very rarely have meets for a variety of reasons.

Some people don't want a pic of their face holding up a sign with Fabswingers download onto the internet. I don't get shit from unverified users and I don't always filter them out. I've met a few men who weren't verified and had a great time.

You can use filters to prevent contact from:

*unverified

*no public pics

I prefer to concentrate on my own profile . Fakes can simply ignored and verifications are boring and meaningless .

To avoid some of the issues that people complain about , you just need common sense , judgement and gut instinct .

How exactly would it do that? And how much would you be prepared to pay for that because with the amount of administration necessary to work that kind of system your fiver a month won't cut it, sunshine...

We never even look or notice if people have been photo verified because it's pointless. And we don't have issues with fakes or time wasters.

We take responsibility for our own experience on here. The site is just a tool to make contact with other like minded people nothing more or less. We're not paying customers, were site supporters. We don't encounter time wasters generally because we don't allow people to waste our time

The concept may seem like a good idea but another n from us, anyone can fake a verification be it photo or meet. If we had a £1 for every time some random guy we've never met asked us for a meet verification in return for one in the time we've been here, we'd be good for a hotel room for a weekend! If more people used that squishy thing in their skull they wouldn't have so many problems with the site.

Photo veri proves nothing other than how you look at the time of the picture and that you exist. You can still be a time waster, troll or whatever. As others have said and for the same reasons, I'll never be photo verified. I also disassociate myself from the idea the site doesn't go down this road because it boosts their figures.

there will always be a modicum of 'fake' profiles op and no amount of administration on a site will alleviate that. Use the site tools, use common sense anyone can 'fake' holding a piece of paper to get the green flag it means very little. You'll see what your suggesting has been asked many times before and admin have said they won't make it mandatory. If people read the site FAQ's a no reply to a message means no thanks.

And yet without a photo verification I still managed to arrange meets etc

Just cause you've had a bad experience (or several) doesnt mean we have to stand to arms because YOU think it must be so to be photo verified so why don't you take that bitter pill and swallow it?

Nope.

We've been contacted by new members who have been photo verified who then have turned out to be fakes. Plus having to send a photo to persons unknown on a site we nervously joined 23:59 hours ago or be binned, would absolutely have scared us off. It took us a good 6 months before verifying.

A 'newbies guide to filtering' would be more beneficial than extra rules. Sent in a message upon arrival.

Don't agree. I do however think if you get blocked by a profile if they unblock you to look at you then they shouldn't be able to block you again for 48 hours and I don't like hidden profiles to be able to see my profile.

Yes. Photo verification within 28 days. It will put casual fakers off, and at least help to prove that a couple is a couple etc. I had no qualms, why should anyone else if they are genuine?

28 days is a lot more reasonable than the 24hrs as the OP suggested I don't have qualms with it, it's just having time to do it

Lol, that's just i thought. Completely appreciate the desire to out fakes, sadly forcing unverified profiles off after any period of time won't work, the site going to do all the hand holding for the users,mo matter how much we want. Besides, I tend to look multiple factors other than photo verification.

Simple answer is NO,

However you can filter, also if they have been here for some time and no verifications or photos they are never going to meet, just voyeurs.

At the end of day the decision to meet is yours

And no. You've failed to describe exactly how anyone will be able to actually confirm that the picture sent to verify is the person it claims to be and that they aren't a fake or a "time waster"

No just because it was you opinion doesn't mean it is not totally without foundation or sense or any sort of perspective.

This site is for everyone and you can take easy steps to remove the problems you are having without ruining it for many other legitimate users.
