Its not rocket science to figure out the fakes from the genuine people.

Ive never had a problem with that. You can tell when something isnt quite right and then you leave it alone

I think there do seem to be more fake accounts, but they are also blindingly obvious fakes to anyone thinking with their brain rather than their cock.

Only ever had a couple of fakes message us, they were so obvious though it was funny.

There's loads you can do to reduce the risk of Fakes sending you messages though. Block new users, unverified users, and users without public photo's... that will reduce the number.

Also, never do dirty talk in messages that's often what they're really after... something to wank over.

Some are so obvious it's funny. Every so often i get messages from beautiful unverified young local women who coincidentally only joined the site hours/days ago. I'm tempted to reply "Hello 15 year old boy (and friends), please go back to your xbox and leave the grown ups to have their fun"

No one ruins it for me on here. There are some people who piss about and aren't here to meet,plus the scammers and people touting for business. You start to recognise them after a while and block. Yes,it takes precious seconds out of your time but using filters can help.

There were plenty of fakes when we had our first profile, it's nothing new. It just seems worse I guess as more people on the site means more fakes.

Seems to me people are much savvy about fakes these days.

OP, it will be spoiling it, as your profile needs work, but can't do it here.

Saying you were on before when you were only 17 , and then an explanation, and having 1 hidden veri, immediately on joining, could look dodgy to some.

As time goes by and your profile and verifications improve so will your view of the site.

No ,i don't think so.

If people use their common sense the fakes are generally obvious and you can just Avoid them.

You will never cut out fakes on the internet ,as behind a screen you can be anyone.

No. It's easy to spot the who are the fake swingers and who are the real swingers. There are still plenty of meets happening on Fab daily.

Yes,there are fakes but as said, they're easy to le out. Fab is no worse than others, and a lot better than other dating sites.

My concern relates to you joining at 17, and being here at 20. Don't know about anyone else but the thought of someone here at that age is a little uncomfortable, and at 20 surely going out and socialising in bars would be better. Being a young man, chasing girls the old fashioned way. Beers, mates, girls, and banter.

When I was 19/20 and I met boys when I was out, I was often really upset if they never got in touch after we slept together. I think it's absolutely fine for young people to meet on here where everyone knows what they're after. It's also surely safer than going home with someone you've met in a pub/club.

it depends what you want. My partner has no desire to bed 20somethings. She's 21. If she was with younger guys, she would find it difficult to express her sexuality and would probably scare the living hell outa the boys if she did. This site is great for people who have more desires than your average vanilla type of relationship, we shouldn't ostracise people because of their age. Its ageism after all

No. We haven't had any problems with fakes. The odd time waster, but then everyone has the right to change their minds - just nice to be told they have. And the crap obviously take profiles make the legit ones stand out.

I don't think there are more fakes now than when we first joined 9 years ago, I felt there were more around then, although maybe it's just that as time goes on they seem more blatantly obvious to us so we don't take any notice of them.

It's not the fakes that's the problem....they are easy to spot.

It's the idiots with no pics on their profile, private or otherwise that ask silly questions and flood an inbox

"Do you meet blokes?"

"Did you bother to read the profile? NO"

"Couldn't be bothered"

Well that makes two of us and block!

Easy to remedy. Assuming you've been chatting for a while and getting along fine. Ask them for a photo (including face pic, just like the fab veri) of them holding up a piece of paper with the word of YOUR choosing on it. Yeah, not everybody is comfortable at short notice BUT if you are serious, then what's the harm? Surely BOTH parties would be happier knowing everybody is legit? (Mr).
