Just as you assume no meets why are they fake.

They could meet just not need veris

was going to say, nobody verified, or rarely.

But then again we went out for the fun, not the verification

Why not just avoid those profiles and let people do what they do.

If no veris we'd assume not sociable or fake so wouldn't interact

Use the filters on the site op, works really well much more appropriate than people being shamed

Just ignore the profiles you aren't interested in and move on to the next.

Maybe they don't feel the need to advertise their veries.

Why do you presume they’re fake ? And why does it seem to wind you up so much?

Because we have been victims before 3 times from couples who arranged a meet on the phone (!!!!!) then decided not to turn up and block us (phone and fab)

I know there are genuine people amongst the unverified, but the likes of what we’ve experienced before, deserve the badge...?

Then that's a lesson learned. Filter out unverified people and/or those without pictures, choose not to interact with them...that way they just can't bother you

They are just rude and ignorant if they don't turn up, not fake as such.

The "real" profiles/people are just as timewasters as a profile without veris, they contact you then never responed again. There is alot of fake site generated profiles as well to generate "traffic", the whole point of the host site is to earn money, the busier it is the more chance of someone becoming a site supporter and making some money off them.

Id disagree about site generated profiles... this is one site where that does not happen. There is no need for the site to create profiles. Its a busy well run site.

OP. Your idea of a Badge of Shame would not work.

Some people choose not to have their Veris listed. Some don't wish to put up Pics for personal reasons.

As for me, I'd no veris for 18 months, from early 2016-July last year. A): I'd a job in a fairly remote part of Scotland & no car; meets were impossible. B): When I left there, I spent 9 months freelancing across the UK via an agency. Time at each site could be days to a few weeks. Getting to know people or was tough going.

Thus, if we followed your ideology, you'd effectively cast me aside due to no veris simply down to my circumstances.

Hence why the idea is flawed.

Fab doesn't run site generated profiles/bots. If you are referring to profiles that have the same profile text - I am a xx* year old straight* woman* and I'm looking to meet couples*.

*can change , age,gender, sexuality and looking for

That is the generic text for a new profile if they don't change it and write their own profile.

Enjoying the forums, cam rooms and staying in touch with friends I expect, the same as a lot do, including myself.

Personally I think it's a funny idea, maybe it would encourage people to get verified? Or atleast photo verified?

Is that a bad thing even if you prefer to "lurk" on here.

A lot of us prefer to keep fab friends separate from our real lives on Facebook and have a good, regular group of people we've met on here we use fab to keep in touch with. We all use fab how we choose to. It's not for you or anybody else to judge how the rest of us use the site.

Then as previously suggested, change your vetting process. Effort in = rewards out.

Why are you arranging to meet such people if you think they are fakers?

Just to mix things up a bit. What about Veri collectors? They can be just as annoying. 5 second "Hi there" and boom seeking a veri.

Personaly neither get to me. We either arrange meets or we dont. We are just as happy with the social side and banter.

Also...

There is actually a hidden group on Faceb for fab members.

And with FB being recently hacked and details stolen I certainly wouldn't join that group.

It would be pretty easy for a genuine single guy to be unverified after a year.

If a woman was unverified after a year I’d assume they aren’t really looking to meet.

I haven't met anyone in over a year, not through lack of trying just no one can interest my mind and body.

Just as well I've been here for 10 years and have already been verified, it's not that easy to meet people you know

Is that like the kik and whatsapp groups where people bitch about people who don't swing the way they feel they ought to and get away with saying the sort of shit about people that would get them a forum ban?
