Why can't two unverified profiles verify each other
Jump to: Newest in thread
We had a great meet yesterday and afterwards went to post a verification on the guys page but couldn't as we weren't verified and he could not verify us either as he was the same. We don't have a cam so the only way to get verified it seems is to meet with an already verified user. It really should be easier particularly for new users. |

It's to prevent fakes

You've had a lovely meet,that's all that matters  |

The veri system would be pointless if you could. You had a good meet so not being verified didn't stop you and after all, we're here for meets, not veris. |

I'm Verified, I'd be into meeting people in person and if it's helpful then verify them, I was lucky enough to meet a Sweet Lady who verified me, so I know how it Feels....
I'm available on this via my inbox,
Happy Fabing |

My first meet WAS with a verified couple who didn't verify me, so understand your pain!
I thought it was just me but cross checked their veri's and saw that they never seemed to verify anyone back ..
It's frustrating and can be a challenge getting that first veri as many people won't meet you if unverified, but stick at it and the veri's will come!
Good luck! |

Just ask the next person you meet (if they are verified) to verify you
I always try and verify someone when I have meet them if they arent verified but I am also aware some men dont want women knowing they meet trannies too lol
Can be a minefield but we all have to start somewhere |

I've met someone but neither of us are verified so how can we verify each other?
One of you needs to be verified in order to verify the other person. Your best bet is for the female to get verified by another member e.g. on cam.

Meet someone who is verified then. We all had to do this at some point. |

"We are photo verified and so are they...we're genuine. "
Photo verified means nothing and anybody can say they are verified. Think your question has been answered in that two unvetifieds being able to verify each other woukd actually mean the whole verification system is useless. |

I will verify you later in a chat room by web cam if you send me a pm |

The OP already stated they don't have a cam? |

"And make it even easier for the fake profiles to verify each other??  "
Totally. This site is already over-whelmed with fakes and frauds that making it easier for them to pass themselves off as real is absurd.
Let's be honest, every new phone and laptop has a built in camera, cameras are cheap as chips, it's not too difficult to buy one, if you really wanted to.
Or just meet a verified member. |

"Can't we just remove Cam veris altogether?
But surely in this situation they are useful? "
Not if they don't have a cam!
Like the OP!  
But with Asda (other supermarkets are available - and Argos!) selling them for a whole fiver and most laptops coming with them built in these days I can see the economic argument not to have one.

Useful to help fake profiles which are bad for the site. Cam veris can be faked and should be seen as worthless. |

I think you are missing the point I am afraid. Your assuming your word is sufficient but it really isn't. This site would be chaotic if it run on a basis that each individual's statement they were genuine was held to mean something. |

I'm sure meet veris can be faked too. |

They can be but nothing the site owners can reasonably do about that |

Which is why I take veris with a big pinch of salt. They're not the be all and end all. I prefer to make my own mind up about someone. |

Absolutely, veri's are handy but not gospel; I ALWAYS get at least a girl-girl phone call in before I do ANYTHING involving real life, and I usually have a coupole of cam sessions before I'll meet too. |

I don't trust webcam verifications - in person ones generally give me an impression of what the person is like/whether they are who they day the are/whether they are 'safe' to meet etc. Seeing a glimpse on cam doesn't do that. |

I can understand where you're coming from, I'm not verified as not met anyone yet, and if anyone knows how to get my cam working on a Linux laptop I'll go on cam for someone to verify me.
I know there are some profiles that say they'll not chat or met with anyone not verified, kind of makes it hard. But fingers crossed one day it'll happen. Good things come to those who wait and all that.
That said anyone local fancy meeting for a coffee and a chat to verify that I'm genuine lol |

Don't you have a phone that you can use for video
Worse comes to the worse meet a guy for a social that will verify you or go to a club
There are many options and relying on getting laid to get verified is not the way
We got our first verify at a social meet with the organiser
Was not hard to do or was it inconvenient

Agreed! On our first day of joining Fab we had offers of being verified to get us going despite not meeting or going on cam...we declined  |

Webcam veris should be barred all this shows is face on a cam does not prove person turns up and is nice etc.
Anyone with just cam veris I tend to ignore to me no difference to phone verifications which were rightly barred in my opinion. |

But it enables people to be verified so in this situation, 2 unverified people can meet verify each other. |

It is frustrating from a newbies point of view. So many won't meet non verified people, and the problem is that you need to be verified to get the meet but can't get the meet to get verified in the first place  |

So get photo verified! I honestly don't understand why this is so difficult for some folks. |

Get the person you met ( assuming it is female or a couple ) to get verified by cam in chat, then they can veri you. |

Everybody that has ever joined the site started out unverified.
And yet there are many, many green ticks on profiles!

I suspect that there are some perverts on here, arranging social meets and attending clubs! |
