We kind of used to like veri’s, now it more focused on our meets, not what others think of us as we tend to have a circle we play with regularly.

So when do veri’s stop becoming important for you?

They’re never important

What is important is actually chatting to people you’re planning to meet before you do. This will give you tons more confidence than any verifications.

Verifications certainly should never be used as references or recommendations.

If that is so, what is the reason people appear to put so much importance on them?

I've seen a few profiles, that say they won't reply without veris. So I'd say that they stop being important, once you've stopped being in catch-22.

So right now, I need all the good karma and all that.

Who does? I certainly don’t. If you don’t like them don’t give them or display them.

We’re talking about sex not restaurants. Surely this is a situation where you’re not going to pick a profile just because everyone else already has

The content is never important what is important for us is that somebody has some and therefore is a signal to us that they are genuine. Whether we will actually like them or want to play with them we will decide if we meet them.

That’s good then you don’t.

Don’t understand the restaurant analogy, human sensual interaction against a duck pate.

The only thing we like about verifications is that they prove that we are real and are representative of our profile pictures. They also prove that we do show up and meet.

Personally, I don't reply to someone if they have no veri's on their profile. I think a maximum of 4 is ok then it's not important. I need to see that this person is real and has met or been to a club.

You need at least three veris. Webcam and socials don't count either. It's got to be a boner(!) fide meet or you can't be sure they're not time wasters / fakers. Once you have three you only need to refresh with a new every 6 months or so. Them's the rules don't @ me.

I've got a lot of veri's after a few years and sometimes I'll have more than a few extra after a club visit or none. Same with the annual gangbang or cam session so to me recieving them isn't particularly important anymore but it's always nice to know they enjoyed themselves!

That said I usually like single guys to have a fairly recent one

Its a double edged sword. You want to show people you are genuine you want to tell others that the people you have seen are worth the time and effort. However, there is a thin line between just enough verifications and damn this person gets about. I won't meet people from here with too many verifications. Unless they are club workers or owners.

That's why I prefer to chat for a while. Veri's are just about positive marketing. Did you ever read a bad one? Chatting gives you a much better picture of what someone is really like..

"i dont really see the point in them..........why would you want to tell everyone."

I'm genuine, I am who I say I am, some sort of judge of character (particularly if you know X and X has verified me), I'm active. And while I've yet to see a bad veri, there's something to be said for what's not said in some cases.

I've got a fair few, and yeah, they're not from socials. That's important for people to know too. I see some possessive people around who have a problem with swinging, and my veris send a message that they probably won't find what they're looking for in me.

I agree 100% with this!

I don’t meet people who don’t have any verifications. Not because I believe everything thats written, but because it gives me an idea of whether they are likely to turn up, the type of person they have met, patterns showing their character traits.

Over the roundabout and then turn right.

How many is too many veris though? One profile could be 13 months old and have 56 veris which equals one veri per week, whereas another profile could have 60 veris but be 5 years old, or 1 veri per month.

What about veris from repeat meets, or socials? And nobody publishes a bad veri if they ever receive one.

Some profiles hide the veri summary and only display a few selected ones.

So in fact, the numbers mean nothing to us. It doesnt make any sense to discriminate against anyone based on the number of veris they have.

3 good verifications is plenty. I think most time wasters won't have two on display.

We like a few veri's, at least one recent and by somebody else that is verified. It's like an audit trail. Time is precious to us and don't want to waste it on a fake, dreamer or a keyboard wankster.

I think with the amount of time waters on here you need to be aware that people without or with very few verifications may be fake. Being verified is a good way of sorting the genuine people from the rest. That said u don’t want to come across as a slut (I know of people who have been put off by people having too many) so I tend to display only a handful

Oh? Can you see from a verification if someone isn’t gorgeous but has an amazing personality? If they’re a giggle a minute?

Many people have varied tastes - and I certainly wouldn’t discount meeting someone because I didn’t consider everyone they met to be my idea of a ‘suitable’ meet! X

Displaying veris can be more trouble than it’s worth at times. I have nothing to hide and nothing to prove. I display if the mood takes me but mostly they are for my own enjoyment and a reminder of something I enjoyed. I don’t have many but I do like the ones I have

I agree with a lot of the comments on this topic. Veris are really important and give a lot of info that's often not included elsewhere in a profile and can give you a fair bit of comfort in terms of type of meeting they enjoy, who they've met, comments on looks, personality and the type of play - all helpful. Of course the odd verification does need to be taken with a pinch of salt, but reading several can often give you a clear picture of the person and how well matched you are.

Verifications are most important. Well only the in person kind.

It's vital to know the person you want to meet look like their photos.

If I turn up to a social and he looks little or nothing like his pics, I'll walk away. I don't take kindly to being deceived. Attraction works both ways

Absolutely , and when we were meeting we certainly read them and got a picture as to what to expect from meeting a verified user .

Verified users were invariably less likely to let us down .

And when we show our veris we do so because we want people to know what to expect from us .

I admit I like to read them to get a hint of what I might get too. One guy I met before reading veris. Wish I had. When I read the veris they all said he had a suckable cock and used it well. What none of them mentioned was his oral or finger skills or stamina or much else. And my meet with that person was wham bam bye with no foreplay no kissing no pleasure lol. Chatting to him he talked about pleasure giving but the meet gave nothjng.
