Verification,s

Dont understand why holding a bit of paper with your profile name on it means your a verified swinger as anyone can do this.

We go more on verification,s left by other members after they have met the couple as a way of telling if a member is genuine or not.

Just want to see what everyone else think,s ????

Angus & Findhorn

think it is a way of trying to reduce timewasters..

and to be fair... they are dammed if they do try and dammed if they don't

O o O oo

It is to verify that there is a couple/ female/ male belonging to the profile.

We aren't photo verified, have veris of our own, but can see where it would help clear out the fake profiles - maybe make it a necessity rather than choice? Might get rid of some of the timewasters on here?

Takes about 2 mins to photoshop up a verification, complete with hands holding the paper onto a photo downloaded from Google! Good enough to fool anyone short of digital forensic lab, I know, as I've seen something similar done many times.

What or who is to say you are real from validations from "meets"?

They are just tools to HELP out fakes. But there will always be fakes, with photo verifications and/or meet verifications.

Use your better judgement at all times.

Putting the 'cum' in Eboracum

Why is it a problem? I am photo verified and I doubt it affects the quantity of my messages one jot. But saying that the other veris are more reliable is rubbish. I have been stood up by people with a list as long as your arm, and had fab meets with men with none.

Meets are based on gut instinct, what they look like, and how you get on when you message. the rest is just icing.

I agree, there is a local numpty in my area who verifies everyone whether he meets them or not, he has been reported a few times but nothing gets done

Personally I don't understand why people hold so much store in verifications. I don't know any of you, so why would I take the word of total strangers about another total stranger?!!

When someone messages me I'm more than capable of ascertaining whether I want that person in my bed or not - I don't care what stranger's think.

In four years I've never encountered a timewaster, and enjoyed many a good time until I met my other half.

Use it as a tool if you feel you need to - but nothing can beat your own judgement!

Wise words indeed!

- all verifications are totally subjective in any case so you'd also have to implicitly trust the judgement/taste of those giving the verifications

think this has came up before....we aint all total strangers, especially if its local people(lets say my county),so its either through chat,word of mouth etc etc...verifies can be a good source, not saying the only source...but its good to get an idea of what other people think...and i mean that in the nicest sense, I have "passed" on to friends some ive met and mostly think they have had a good time with who ive recommended.And its not solely based on sex, most of the time I wanna make sure its someone who can hold a conversation and likes a good laugh, and doesnt act like a total fud!

I don't have any verications from other members yet. I've had a few meets but no one's left a verification. Do you guys think I should ask them to?

If you feel you need one ask but they can only verify you if you they are already done. I wouldn't worry though as a phone call to potential meets is far better proof you are genuine.
