Throwing this out there. I think it’s declined a bit due to some of the following annoying aspects
- Too many fake profiles
- Too many disrespectful men (giving us all a bad name)
- “content sellers”
- Fab for a friend request photos- wtf is all that about?
I’m sure there’s a couple of other things but I can’t remember haha.
Thoughts? |

That’s another one, in the world of emojis, the lack of eye roll or laughing emojis is annoying |

Haven't come across a single fake profile in 8 years here and the more disrespectful men there are the better because it makes the rest of us stand out rather than ruin anything for us.

totally agree on lack of some emoji - rolling eye and huge laughing one
lack of people prepared to actually meet - they agree and will give you a date they could possibly meet up and ... stop messaging!!
or you get the ones that message forever and have no intention of meeting either
lack of support for victims of trolls and nasty messages, reporting never seems to make them go away
but there is a lovely bunch of supporting, kind people that has its own little community. Love social events, even organised some.

The site owners want feedback but give nothing in return. Not even a generic message of thanks.
The site doesn't evolve or improve.
The messaging service is poor and out of date.
Messages should be instant where a window pops up so you can chat right away.
Profiles should be able to cap how many messages they want in the their inbox. Once it's full we as users can see its full and are told we can't send a message until the recipient has cleared their inbox.

Also it would be good if you could turn off the reply from forum posts, to stop the ones who don't take part and only message to be pervy or creepy. |

I've not stumbled across any fake profiles yet, which is some feat compared to other websites..
That said, I had my verified tick removed today for leaving a verification for a "fake profile" even though it was for a woman I've known for 20+years.. Bonkers.
Can't get hold of anyone directly to explain and get it put back on either.. Marvellous..

I like to scroll up and down the "Hot Photos" page in quick succession.
But when I use my willy to do that instead of my hands, it always opens up one profile and ruins the rhythm.

Not many things annoy us - for me  only thing is I like a chatter and am clear doesn’t mean a meet if we do chatter. People are like ‘yes that’s great’ but if they get frisky in chatter and I am clear that’s not this isn’t the route of this, they get arsey! Seems silly really but then I get why people just delete messages and don’t engage. |

"Annoyed is a strong word. I’m more ‘meh’ about a lot of stuff. "
That’s probably a better way of putting it, I just didn’t know how to spell ‘meh’  |

I may be opening a can of worms here but genuinely curious. Though I can’t strongly state enough I in no way condone but why do people on fab have such a dislike for seeing cock pics on profiles or in a message?
I would never send one myself unless requested but considering the endless amount of adult content with body parts on display I would have thought people would have been leased phased and more “meh, seen one, seen them all, have they got anything interesting to say or other pics.”. This there certain anatomy that in general people think are to ugly or disgusting to see?
I know I’ve been sent dics and couple pics with them in different state of undress with the males Dix on display before requesting but I never thought anything of it or felt offended. Apologies for my ignorance it’s just to me, the sending of unsolicited pics etc is a very bad thing to do and so naturally just something I would never do even on fab. However I don’t think I’ve ever stopped and asked anyone on here how it makes someone feel getting these images and what is it that makes them feel so negatively about seeing certain anatomey when so much of all types is shown in most parts of the site? Again not condoning or intending to offend, just gain insight from others perspective x |

Except for those who haven't experienced or encountered any of these things it has nothing to do with luck and that's the point.
It's about recognising and avoiding them so that you don't experience or encounter them. |

Doesn't necessarily annoy me but Most people don't read profile before replying. Also lots of fake profiles and some times these profiles are verified and even have public verifications. Strange. |

It’s a good point tbf. I don’t send them either, but people who’ve got their gammon splashed all over their profile but state they don’t wanna see dick pics I can see a slight contradiction. |

There are a few things that irritate me but if I feel they are multiplying, I take a break!
The only thing I think that probably needs reviewing is the reporting system. All that ever happens is that they block you both from seeing eachother profile . A bit like when your kids and you have a disagreement with a sibling and your parents send you to separate rooms! |
Reply privately (closed, thread got too big) | |
Lol where to start...
1) People who don't read profiles at all - or message knowing they're not what your looking for "but thought I'd chance my arm"
2) Obsession some people have over the ruddy green tick verification
3) Profiles with absolutely no pictures or profile pic yet demand pics of you on first message...pot kettle black?
4) Rude people or those who think they're "it" - especially those who clearly seem to dislike new profiles
5) People demanding Whatever an "exceptional male" is |

I take it for what it is and try not to afford it any strong annoyance. Few things I don't like; obviously fakes , people who message first and then just go silent or leave messages unread (but only because I don't understand it, no big deal), abuse of any kind towards others and inappropriate posts in forums, people who post threads with intention of causing a lot of friction (you can spot them easily though so I don't read their threads and certainly never comment on them), overstated arrogance and misplaced confidence, extreme politics, ideology and partisan dogma, lack of empathy and compassion for others including those on benefits or the disable, flaunting personal stuff like jobs, finances, houses, cars etc. as there are lots of people struggling to make ends meet at the moment and finally a tiny bit annoyed also about people who don't like olives ( I don't really mean that as some are still lovely. 
Ps, lots of wonderful people here that I love talking to. The few that aren't don't really bother me. I come on here to escape, enjoy the forums and also the opportunity to meet people. |

A few things - when you take the time to write a well thought out message reference the profile include pics etc and just get it deleted. For me personally I will always reply with thankyou but not interested
I get women/couples get bombarded but a simple no thanks isn't really that difficult imho I would do that when was in a couples profile with my ex on here |

The site is the best one out there of its type. It isn’t a rip off, there are real people here, when we were playing as a couple it was good for us to play in directing rooms, meet likeminded people and establish genuine friendships.
Since becoming old and invisible and a single swinger I’m no longer in great demand. That’s not the sites fault. It’s real life.

Very little.
Most of the things that frustrated me in any way are a 'me' problem, not a site problem.
People living too far away that I'd like to meet for a coffee and a natter.
People living closer that I've yet to meet because diaries never align.
Aside from that? Not a lot. If I got annoyed at the actions, views, thoughts and behaviour of others then I'd be worried. Other people's use of the site doesn't really affect me in any way. I just focus on how I want to use it. Results in a much happier existence. |

This is thought of by lots of people but it isn't true. You may get blocked from somebody in certain cases but the report will be dealt with too if verified.
Here is an explanation from Admin from another thread on how they deal with reports.
******Just a quick note. If people report others and we can verify that they have broken site rules, we always take action (either a first and final warning, partially suspended account, fully suspended, mixture of the above).
Every single report sent via the REPORT link is reviewed. Clearly it's not in our interests to have people on here who are bad for the site. Equally we need to verify what has been reported and be fair to those who have been reported.
Admin
PS. we never provide feedback on what has happened. It's just not practical given that we get 100s of reports a day.
Here is what the page says after a report has been submitted:
--
Your feedback has been saved.
A website admin will shortly review your feedback and take the necessary action. After reviewing the evidence available to us, we may disable an account, remove a user, disable certain aspects of that user's account or issue a warning.
By leaving feedback you help improve the site for everyone who uses it. Thank you.****** |

It isn't. It is stating what you typed which was you hadn't come across a fake profile when in fact you admitted you have and just not spoke to them.
Which in essence means you have come across a fake profile to decide you were not going to speak to them
If you don't come across anymore don't forget to report them |

Yes there can be some, what could be seen as strange messages etc, but there's also some really lovely ones too which far outweigh them.
