I find them useful, if it proves someone turns up and that they are genuine. Don't need to read all the gory details of some veries though!

I don't find them useful at all. I use my common sense when deciding whether to meet someone.

Yes at least it shows that they are prepared to meet, not just fabbing in their own head

Sometimes U.K

I'd say useful, for several reasons.

1. They are hopefully genuine, not always though.

2. Gives an indication of the type they are looking for.

3. If they're a fabber of quality, quantity or both.

they have no real use

1. only get to see good verification

2. some are fake some are not, you will never know

3. they say very little about the person/s

they are just one of the tools we use when deciding if we want to meet someone. We don't take any notice of photo verification and stop looking if people have a rafy of cam veris but no meets.

A tricky one is when someone gives us a verification that we don't like (usually very explicit and lacking any taste) then us trying to explain why we haven't published it on our profile !

Ladies have gotten in touch on my old profile soley based on the quality of verifications. However on the new profile they aren't achieving the same thing! So I guess it depends on the person

We would say very useful, especially to know if someone is who they say they are, we also check the veri's of the people who verified. But one must also know, that verifications are not a golden ticket to open the fab all you can handle free sex flood gates.

Patience, good profile, pictures, charm, good sense of humour, ability to socialise in groups of strangers, amongst many other things are the key

Very useful to help check they actually meet. Lots of fakes and daydreamers. People who meet will have veris from other verified people. Depends on time on-site of course.

As others have said, it can show that people actually get out there and meet. But they're just one of many tools. We find it dodgy when people see them as some of definitive review, so we take them with a pinch of salt and try not to read between the lines.

Especially when couples give each other glowing verifications when they really can't stand each other.

Very useful. If they know people we know, then we will feel more comfortable. Verifications also tell us if they attend clubs, which is useful to know. And veris tell us if a single man plays with couples. We would avoid a single man who has only been verified by single women, because we feel they are unlikely to be interested in us.

I pay little attention to them, they can be faked and I prefer to make my own mind up about a person rather than go on what a complete stranger says about them after what usually is the first (and last!) time they ever meet them.

They can be very useful in ascertaining the reality of a potential meet . Also , if a selection are shown , it shows the type of people they meet , which also helps determine whether a they would be compatible with us .

Gave up on verifications many moons ago when the 5th verified person in a row didn't show so not been that useful to us.

Someone having no verifications doesn't bother me at all. I'm put off by men with more than five, to be honest.

They can be useful. But not because of what they say, because they're all very similar. It's interesting to map someone's Fab journey, via their verifications. That's all I'll say.

Which is probably why I'll keep mine hidden, if I ever meet again!

Some of the verifications give an insight to what the other party seek and engage during a meet.

I'm always astounded how some members have managed to receive lots of camera based verifications, yet are unable to go to a social or club type meet - even if they just socialised.

They put me off if someone has lots of veris from the same person, and also put me off if I see everyone's meeting the same people. I know the fab pond is small but I don't really want to know that we're all doing it with each other by association

Wouldn't say they are pointless but can give false security.

There is no guarantee a verified person will show, there is no guarantee a verified person is who they say they are.

So the rules are

4 or less, not enough.....

More than 6, too many.......

Explicit text, puts us off......

Verified by the same person more than once, puts us off

Hiding verifications, puts us off.......

So if you have 5 verifications, all from different people, not explicit, all displayed, then we will meet you, please form an orderly queue

Mine tell a story. From beginning to end.

I also like the way different people tend to say the same things about me. Because I try to treat everyone the same. If I meet you, I will treat you just as well as those I have already met.

Each to their own as we always say.

What floats some couples boat is a turn off for others.

We all know why we are on here but having endless full depth blow by blow details from endless veris is a big no from us.

A verification in our book is just that, proof that you are who you say in your profile??

We find them useful in a few ways we only see couples so couples with lots of single men verifications gives Mrs Kinky warning. Bells that the other man might not be upto much and she might leave a meet dissapointed in the bedroom department. The odd 1 or 2 is fine and a TV in their is also good for what we like. Also age of meets is a good indicator if they would see oldies like us.

What's actually written is pretty unimportant as people tend to put the same stuff in.

Verifications just say who they met that they want you to know about. They could have 1 showing and 4000 hidden bareback gangbang veris.

They might have only met single men so far but had no luck meeti_g couples. Doesn't mean they don't want to meet couples, just they haven't yet.

They might have none showing because the people they met left the site... or they value discretion & privacy.

They might have 6 veris from slim women but really adore bigger women but haven't had chance to meet any because the bigger women see the slim veris and won't meet them....
