"It’s terrible. Time and fuel costs wasted. Happens way more than it should do. I hope you have reported the profile. That's all we can do." You can do that for timewasters? | |||

"It’s terrible. Time and fuel costs wasted. Happens way more than it should do. I hope you have reported the profile. That's all we can do. You can do that for timewasters?" Only no shows. Everybody's definition of a timewaster seems to be different though. | |||

"I don’t understand the thing about time wasters on here and I think men should do what they say and appreciate appreciate the opportunity to meet because they come few and far between for us men on here " Why do you think it’s only men who are time wasters? | |||

"It’s terrible. Time and fuel costs wasted. Happens way more than it should do. Maybe you need to rethink how you go about things " I did. Messaged them. Spoke to them. Went to their house. No one home. No response to messages. Did everything I could do. Didn’t just turn up blind without no prior contact. | |||

Go to his/her profile. Click "report user" on the left corner. Choose "arranged meet but did not turn up"" And that is the only reason you can report them for, not stopping a chat or going quiet before meeting etc. | |||

My definition of a timewaster:
Someone who arranged and confirmed a meet, but didn't turn up, without informing the other party. (up to the agreed time) | |||

"Makes life on fab harder for the genuine guys who actually are reliable. " I agree! | |||

"Every time I go to meet a new man I think "Is this the one who is going to be a no show, or has sent me on a wild goose chase"." It’s frustrating ain’t it. Fair pisses me off | |||

"Tis a pity we can’t name and shame eh! We’ve said the same.... same for people that have misrepresented themselves too!" I’ve reported that in the past. Clearly not used their own photos when FaceTimed to confirm who they are. Or my fave, really old photos of them. | |||

" We turned up at a pub once and we’re stood next to who we were meeting and didn’t recognise them! Lol I asked how old they were (profile stated 45 & 47) and when they said 55 &57 (and obviously had had hard paper rounds) I pointed out that’s not what’s on fab and their reply was ‘well everyone lies on Fab’ I do wonder how successful people are when they lie about something so basic.... | |||

It is simple really ain’t it. But I know folks lower the age or up the age to get into age brackets. | |||

"Tis a pity we can’t name and shame eh!" I can see that point of view, but it is fraught with danger for us all. Report and block is the best way, I was reported for being a time waster by a couple I had been chatting to who invited me to a party …. In Plymouth starting three hours after the invite (I am at least 7 hours drive away on a good day) and when I declined reported me for timewasting ! it would be easy to name and shame when needed but just as easy to lie ! | |||

"Makes life on fab harder for the genuine guys who actually are reliable. never made life hard for me didnt affect me ever Nor me, if it’s having an adverse effect on me, then I can’t say I’ve noticed." I think those that have read my post have taken this in totally the wrong way so I'll clarify. Due to the amount of time wasters, dreamers and fakes that tend to be men, makes the single guy profile one to be viewed with suspension, I know this as I'm on here with my wife as a couple and the amount of unreliable men that have wasted our time leave you with a bad taste in your mouth and very wary of the next contact you get. Just because you've not felt any adverse effect from this doesn't meant it doesn't happen. If people were more realistic and honest then the whole experience for everyone would be better. I hope this clarifies it for those that took my post as just moaning. Thanks | |||
