"I've met a couple who don't send pics they had good verifs tho and they were good looking too  "
I told them it's not my thing to drive an hour for a bind date to a pub but it seems am in the wrong for saying no |

You were right in our opinion, we’d never meet anyone without seeing them first to avoid any uncomfortable moments (yet we still had a couple of them where the pics were from like 100 years ago)
There’s loads of different people on the site and it’s always better to know that you catch each other’s eye before any void meets |

Simple as supply & demand Op 
More single guys  chasing couples  than the other way around 
So you have to be charming, ask a few questions and also be clever
One fact of FAB life that I've found is that the people who whinge about the amount of time wasters on here are usually the biggest no-show merchants and time wasters themselves
So, if it doesn't feel right Op, don't go there.  |

Mind you, they do state in their profile that they expect a picture but won't send one in return, so you knew where you stood before you sent yours!(unless they've updated it since?)...though I'm not sure on what grounds they would have reported you,if all you said was you weren't meeting them! |

There’s no way I’d drive an hour to meet anyone blind..
sure how are you supposed to know them when you get there, Assuming they will actually show. 
You were right OP...
if people can’t be honest and upfront then no way I’d get involved. |

When that happened to us we simply blocked the profile and jogged on tbh, but we are very trigger happy when blocking profiles so it might be a bit radical X)
It doesn’t matter if you are a single lad, a single gal or a couple, you should never cope with abusive people |

Report the abuse to admin.
It's up to you to decide what you feel is necessary for your own comfort and safety.
We don't provide face pics but we don't ask for them either, we're quite happy to have a blind social meet. If people aren't happy with this, that's fine,we won't be meeting - nor will we be giving anyone abuse. |

You are one of the nicest kindest men I've met on fab and definitely not dangerous. I don't send many face pics but I'd never expect anyone to meet me blind. And you where totally right to say no thats your choice it doesn't make you a time waster. So don't worry what they have to say you done right x

Block, report and move on. Too many up themselves timewasters on here to waste energy even thinking about them. If I started a thread about all the timewasters I come across on here I would never be off the damn site lol |

Don't worry about it my friend..the terms and conditions of meeting should be respected for both parties...whatever your terms in meeting should be respected by the other party too...you done absolutely nothing wrong by your principles of meeting..keep Rocking |

What's the difference between sending pics on here and kik? Kik doesn't guarantee a pic back or does it? |

No .there's no guarantee of a pic return on Kik either ..but if you've got to the Kik stage to me it's a step closer to maybe meeting cause usually someone doesnt give you their Kik unless they feel like getting to know you more ...that's my take on it..but the point that l was making in general was l was just sick to the teeth of being asked for a face pic ,saying l will send one if they return one ..they agree to return one...l send one ..and nothing comes back ..so lve stopped sending face pics here because of that . |

Looking for opinions on forums is grand but sometimes uv to just go with your gut and u knew it seemed off. Ur also on d site over a year & ur experienced so u should by now know how fab works. It’s a 2way agreement between fabbers profiles when they agree to meet, if they’ve rules & if u don’t agree with them then respect that but move on.
Reading thru d forum u went from asking opinions to ranting & fighting your own corner & bitching abt d couple and now I see on your profile your naming/shaming/threatening them, mate it’s not on, thick skin & move on. Your only doin urself one with this drama. |

Op, it clearly says on the couple's profile that they won't send a pic to single lads but expect one from them. While you can argue this is a onesided pic policy, it's entirely up to anyone approaching them to go along with it or not.
So I understand that you wouldn't want to drive for an hour without knowing how they might look like,but you must have been aware of their pic policy.
I think the whole issue including this thread is blown out of proportion. Just move on.  |

No you were dead right ,I have never met anyone blind,if they were serious about a meet they would have sent you a pic in private, you need peice of mind not only that you need to see if there's a n attraction there,to me they sounded very pushy.you done the right thing ,anyway it's in fab guidelines before a meet to exchange photos etc. Better to be safe than sorry. |
