FabSwingers.com forum: Everyone should be photo verified to get rid of fake couples

I can’t tell you how many fake couples are on here but a lot. If the site made you photo verified before you could have a profile I think that would get rid of a load of them?

I know as a newbie I’m a bit dumb but I thought every one had to be photo verified as whatever their profile is ie couple or single male or female??

I'm not photo verified and I'm definitely not fake.

What do you deem to be a fake. This word gets thrown around often but are these profiles really "fake" or is it that for one reason or another a meet does not come to fruition. Oh so they must be "fake"

How exactly would it do that? I'm not trying to be argumentative, but nobody over the years has ever been able to explain this to me...

verified as what, by who, against what criteria of actual proof?

Most organized socials etc require you to be either photo verified or meet verified I think its more important for single men most others can get meet verified fairly easily

I don't tend to look if people are photo verified, I look to see if they have verifications of meets be that from a social event or a play meet,if they only have one verification, then I look to see if the person that verified them has also been verified by someone other than them

I'm not photo verified and I'm definately not fake but I can also say I've met one or two fakes who were, photo verified. It's a bit odd when you see a pic that's been verified and someone entirely different turns up at a meet. When I questioned it I get the answer that they didn't want to send me their real photo in case I was put off. Really.... Now what was that all about. Being dishonest and deceitful doesn't wash with me

If the profile only has photos of her and not them together then perhaps approach with caution but I'm not photo verified and I'm very real and having great fun on this site between the forum and meets

More important for single men you say?

Let me give you an example of how important it is to single men in our experience.

We only meet,other meet verified singles and couples.we only meet weekends.

Like many many other couples and single ladies we are inundated by guys asking to meet when it's clear we obviously can't.

Last Xmas, Dec18,we decided to try a little experiment.we were in Belfast for a drink and put up a meet for unverified guys to join us for a drink,get that first veri.again, inundated with responses, inundated.

Do you know how many turned up?

None

Zero

Ziltch

We will never make such an offer again.

To too many it's all a game,it's the chase,with no intention to follow up.

Verifications, photo or cam or meet, are not proof that anyone is genuine. There are many many other ways to make sure people are genuine early one and ways of spotting fakes. There are many other sites that offer greater security but they are more expensive. We are all here because it is cheap and has a high membership.

I think the point the OP was trying to make was that it would make it harder to join if you are a fake. All you people saying your not pic verified and not fake it wouldn’t be an issue as your genuine, but someone say a man pretending to be a woman would have to photo verify and think ahhhh fuck it.

Photo verification won't stop fakes and it certainly won't stop timewasters and fakes.

Just block non-verified if you think it will

We're fed up of them too, always ends up where the woman isn't available! Started to recognise the flags in profile and messages.

I agree, we should have to provide several pics to admin, as it won't be a problem to us genuine bi couples x

I don't see why single men would need to be photo verified because it's not unusual and I don't see why anybody would pretend to be one.

It would make more sense for couples and single women but I'm not sure it should be compulsory. If somebody is gingerly working out whether to take the plunge then I wouldn't want to put them off. Maybe there should be restrictions on messaging and forum-use instead.

I do think that FF couples should be photo-verified because they are rare and most of the ones I have come across looked very suspect to me.

Seems to be logic deficit here.

How would anyone know other are a fake or not because they have had a picture ticked by admin.

Or perhaps OP you may like to define fake?

Anyone posting must be either meet or photo verified. It's nothing to do with being a single guy or not.

If you are only interested in verified people then the site offers 2 filters to do that already.

Message filters - you can block people who arent verified from messaging you

Search - you can tick a box to only show verified profiles

I don’t think the photo veri works. I’ve seen numerous accounts that are photo verified but still obviously fake. Anyone can send a pic for verification. Do you think someone is sat there thinking “yeah that cock/tit/pussy/arse/leg looks like it could belong that girl/guy/couple on their photo they sent in” .... send a photo of yourself holding the paper the upload as many fakes as you like. Who is gonna know?

If you use your filters non verified people will not be able to mail you. You can avoid any communication with non verified people yourself by not mailing any

If you think a profile is fake you can help Admin by reporting it saying why you think they are fake

Finally, lets be civil when answering people please.
