"With smartphones and just technology in general these days why don't people get photo verified? (For anyone who doesn't know, You send in a face pic to fab with a piece of paper with your ID and fabswingers on it. Only fab see it but they then put a green flag on your profile confirming your profile:- a woman/couple etc) There are so many men pretending to be women it's just such a shame and it spoils the site. I'd like to try and raise awareness to get more verified to out the fakers " I actually agree with this post, and the verification picture does stay private, because personally, i have come across quite a few guys pretending to be women/couples  | |||

"people have met us and verified - no need for a little green flag " Agreed - surely this means more than the green flag? | |||

I can see the point the op is trying to make I am very cautious with people who are not photo verified. I don't give to much away until we have spoken on the phone at least to many fakes on here unfortunately. | |||

"It's just that there are so many fakers out there. They must know we can see through them?" Exactly. So why the need for verifications? People need common sense, not baby sitters. x | |||

My face pics in friend only are just that, of my face and fully clothed, so, NO MY LOGIC IS NOT FLAWED!!! | |||

"people have met us and verified - no need for a little green flag Agreed - surely this means more than the green flag? I agree veri's count for more than anything but everyone has to start somewhere so a little green flag would add some validity to the profile? I met in person to get verified. I'm not putting a photo of that nature on the internet, under the control of someone else. Photo verification *may* suggest someone is likely to be who they say but photos are easily manipulated. Photo verification can't prove someone is honest, reliable and likely to show up. I agree, it wont show that they will turn up or whatever they say they will, i've had verified people not turn up, but what it will tell you is they they say who they are and not some hairy arsed trucker on a females profile lol How does it help knowing that if they don't show up? Do you have any comment on the scenario I describe and the reason some may not want to be photo verified? It dosent at all, people will show up or not, it just stops the Friday night idiots setting up a profile "And risks exposing every site member as a swinger. That's too big a risk for too poor a reason to me. | |||

A
Well the first few messages you don't know and then after a while there's a dawning realisation lol
And how would compulsory photo verification change that?
Just adds a bit of insurance I suppose
Do you have any photos on here that identify you and prove you engage in swinging?
If, say, this site was hacked, and a photo of your face with a sign saying fabswingers was released onto the internet, how would you feel? Would you expect everyone on the site to be happy to take that risk?
Face photos on here prove nothing. If taken from the site and shared, they are just face photos. Someone else could have put them here. A face photo showing you holding a fabswingers sign is a bit more difficult to deny and identifies exactly where to find your profile and under what name.
Once that photo is in internetland, no matter how private and secure it is supposed to be, it's out of your control.
How many celebrities have had photos they thought private and protected spread round the net?
This is the reason why I am not photo verified.
But your happy to have naked pics of you in your private gallery, and i would bet a face pic somewhere so you can send out, your logic is flawed
None of my photos identify me AND show me to be a swinger. There's nothing wrong with my logic. You're missing the point.
Oh, and I have face photos (as above, there's no proof I put them here), but no naked photos. If I did, they wouldn't show my face.
So if the site got hacked, then your pic would be on there ??"And I can deny knowing anything about it. You don't see the difference between a normal face pic and a face pic with a sign saying fabswingers and the username of the profile? Seriously??? | |||

"With smartphones and just technology in general these days why don't people get photo verified? (For anyone who doesn't know, You send in a face pic to fab with a piece of paper with your ID and fabswingers on it. Only fab see it but they then put a green flag on your profile confirming your profile:- a woman/couple etc) There are so many men pretending to be women it's just such a shame and it spoils the site. I'd like to try and raise awareness to get more verified to out the fakers " So, how would the mods checking the photos be able to actually tell that they are who they say they are? Would you suggest that they have to cross reference every picture uploaded against a verification photo that may or may not include their faces? You are aware of the numbers involved in this? I just don't see how this would out any fakes whatsoever...We never even notice whether a profile is photo verified...It just seems utterly pointless...there are far better ways. If it was made compulsory, the time taken would almost definitely mean that it couldn't continue to be a free site as the mods who are volunteers would need to be paid for the vast amount of time it would take, and many genuine people such as ourselves who feel it would be intrusive and unnecessary would leave... | |||

If you're happy to take the risk, great. It's not reasonable to expect everyone to do so. It could impact on people's family life, career, everything.

How can you be sure it stays private once it's out of your control?
The site could be hacked. The server could be stolen. Admin might make a mistake and mess up the file protection. Admin might throw a wobbly and release the photos. A flaw in server software might expose the photos to the public internet.
You can't guarantee the file will stay private. It's in the wild and out of your control. Forever. You have no chance of getting it back, controlling it or tracing it.
Yet you have a full body pic in public on your profile which someone could easily recognise you from ??
How could they prove I know it's here?
You can't see how with a face pic and a sign giving the site name and the username of the profile showing my photos, it would be more difficult to deny I knew?
My body pics don't show my face. My face pics are just normal face pics. Neither identify me as knowingly being on a swinging site.

As soon as the site is compromised who knows where your facepic identifying you as a swinger using fabswingers and a direct link to your profile will be published. I agree it would make it harder for the d*unks on a Friday night to join but people will find away around it. Getting a friend to do pic with/for them so together they can be nosy and annoying and generally have a laugh when they have led someone up the garden path etc In theory good idea, in practice not so much xx | |||

A"We have no explicit pictures. They can all be found elsewhere. If we were outed we could delete our presence in seconds. There would be no incriminating trace anywhere. If we were photo verified there would be a pic with our username and the site name still in existence somewhere and we'd have no control over it. Why can people not see the potential risk of that? | |||

we are not photo verified either, however we do feel if a member of fab wants to put a face pic on public display, they should be photo verified first.
why?
Seems to be a fare few new ' single fem ' profiles displaying face pics yet cant take a pic holding a piece of paper displaying their fab name.
( not suggesting they could be fake for one minute though
Ok I see what you're saying. Yes it might deter some of the morons that think it's ok to steal a pic off the internet to create a fake female profile.
But photo verification can be faked too. Not sure what the answer is.

"people have met us and verified - no need for a little green flag Agreed - surely this means more than the green flag? I agree veri's count for more than anything but everyone has to start somewhere so a little green flag would add some validity to the profile?" One of the first things i did when i joined the site was get photo verified. I think its only open to abuse when the verification photos become public, as i saw on another swingers site people would copy the photos and use photoshop to alter the wording on the piece of paper. Anyhow i just like having the green flag on my profile page, if it would help people like the OP feel more secure about meeting me then i only see that as a good thing. | |||

"With smartphones and just technology in general these days why don't people get photo verified? (For anyone who doesn't know, You send in a face pic to fab with a piece of paper with your ID and fabswingers on it. Only fab see it but they then put a green flag on your profile confirming your profile:- a woman/couple etc) There are so many men pretending to be women it's just such a shame and it spoils the site. I'd like to try and raise awareness to get more verified to out the fakers " I actually agree with this post but also add the need that every profile should have a public face photo undisguised. I never hide what I am I tell everyone I am transgender unfortunately many don't in some ways I can be classed by some as a fake but if one gets to know me one finds I am a genuine person, there is far to much hate and untrust to fear in this world to worry about fake gender, What needs to be done is sexual identity eg bi gay straight and filters imposed to stop different interests being mis matched this could be a way forward Also instead of being a free site make it chargeable is another way to out the fakes, | |||

Well the first few messages you don't know and then after a while there's a dawning realisation lol
And how would compulsory photo verification change that?
Just adds a bit of insurance I suppose
Do you have any photos on here that identify you and prove you engage in swinging?
If, say, this site was hacked, and a photo of your face with a sign saying fabswingers was released onto the internet, how would you feel? Would you expect everyone on the site to be happy to take that risk?
Face photos on here prove nothing. If taken from the site and shared, they are just face photos. Someone else could have put them here. A face photo showing you holding a fabswingers sign is a bit more difficult to deny and identifies exactly where to find your profile and under what name.
Once that photo is in internetland, no matter how private and secure it is supposed to be, it's out of your control.
How many celebrities have had photos they thought private and protected spread round the net?"To get photo verified by fab you have to take a pic with your user name in the pic but it can be from the neck down . From fabs verification page :- '' 1: Hand write FabSwingers and your username on a piece of paper 2: Photograph yourselves holding the paper (your hands must be visible) (photo should show your faces OR full length nude if you want to hide your face).'' | |||

"full length nude if you want to hide your face How does that prove they are genuine? No idea. Seems massively flawed logic to me" I think the general presumption is that dave the trucker, posing as aimey from aintree, would find it hard to take a convincing pic of himself as a woman. Equally, a husband on here as a couple, would find it difficult asking his wife to hold a piece of of paper without her asking a few questions. The system is not infallible, and many of you who have been on here for years and have many meets, will never need it for yourselves, but some of us find it a useful tool. Ps apologies to any aimey from aintrees on here, I'm sure you're a nice lady really! | |||

"For all the people that say "why Bother" to photo verification, if you have nothing to hide, then "Why Not" its very easy to say - oh we are verified by other people but it is also easy to have 2 accounts, and verify yourself, so again; why not? Because I value my privacy and photo verification is too big a risk to that for no reward, in my opinion." After reading through, all comments. I am still flummoxed as to why its such a HUGE issue to some. I get the not wanting to conform, and why not so I'm trying to wrap my head around..name + picture = sudden death in the vanilla world......but!, what about all our pictures on here, which at any point, anyone can copy, has your user name and site name, along the bottom (similar if not the same as photo veri) so I can only think this argument/jovial debate, is flawed ....as well people who refuse to tick, have really already done so, as well I can Ctrl&C and well 'I've got ya".....but also, we don't throw keys in a bowl, and grow pampas grass in the garden. You're swinging (having sex!) Not part of the KKK.........If people were that focused on loosing their carer over it, I'm sure they'd use the appropriate preventative options available.....like don't plaster ANY picture on here.

" !, what about all our pictures on here, which at any point, anyone can copy, has your user name and site name, along the bottom (similar if not the same as photo veri) so I can only think this argument/jovial debate, is flawed" No, it isn't flawed and I don't understand why people are finding it so hard to see the difference. If someone other than me sets up an account and puts my photos, taken from elsewhere, on the site, they will have the site watermark on. I may know nothing about the profile and, even if the photos with the watermark are spread around, nobody can be sure or prove I did. I can deny it. It's very unlikely a photo of me holding a sign with my username and the fab site address could be taken without me knowing about it. If that gets spread around, it's a pretty sure thing I created the profile. A verification photo (showing someone's face) proves someone created their profile on here. A face photo with the site watermark does not. As for the argument that verification photos don't need to show one's face, a body pic does nothing to prove anyone is who they say they are. Plus I don't like my body and don't want to send a full length naked photo to anyone. Some wouldn't care if it became public knowledge they are on here. Some could lose their job, be alienated from their family, have it used as grounds to try to obtain custody of children... I am gobsmacked people can't see the difference between a normal face photo and a face photo of someone holding a sign with the site name and their username on! | |||

"After reading through, all comments. I am still flummoxed as to why its such a HUGE issue to some. " People have lost their jobs as a result of being publicly outed as swingers. People have had being a swinger used during divorce cases and custody hearings, as evidence of poor moral character and that the home environment is unsuitable for raising children, by parents wanting custody of the children. Being outed can have serious consequences for some. And some might just want to keep their private life private. The right to do that is protected by the Human Rights Act, so it's clearly very important to some. | |||

"The full body nude (but not showing face) verification photograph holding a paper with profile name is to primarily prove the gender (female or couple). Not many women on this website pose as males but many males pose as females" It's easily faked though. | |||

"The full body nude (but not showing face) verification photograph holding a paper with profile name is to primarily prove the gender (female or couple). Not many women on this website pose as males but many males pose as females It's easily faked though." Anything can be faked given enough time and money. Someone said to me that a live Skype webcam conversation can be faked too. But not many people can easily fake either and that is why the Admin on this site use it to put the verify tick on the profile I pay more credence to verified profiles than to non-verified profiles and my experience has proved to me that it works | |||

And since that is the case, I won't ever be getting photo verified. | |||

"any hackers wouldn't be that bothered with millions of pics for photo verification think there be more interested in rude ones" There's nothing to prevent them dumping the lot into the public domain and as I pointed out, there are many other ways that private photos could end up being made public. My point is that once it's on the 'net it's out of my control. I don't want that photo on the 'net and out of my control. Even if it's a small risk, (and I can't know the risk without knowing how the site it secured amongst other factors), it's an absolutely unnecessary risk and taking it would not benefit me. | |||

"After reading through, all comments. I am still flummoxed as to why its such a HUGE issue to some. People have lost their jobs as a result of being publicly outed as swingers. People have had being a swinger used during divorce cases and custody hearings, as evidence of poor moral character and that the home environment is unsuitable for raising children, by parents wanting custody of the children. Being outed can have serious consequences for some. And some might just want to keep their private life private. The right to do that is protected by the Human Rights Act, so it's clearly very important to some." | |||

I found one vid once me cycling topless oh the memory's of my ex cycling beside me was a funny vid .personnelly I'm not bothered but understand why people don't want to do it and thats an example of why, nothings safe on the net | |||
