So you want the site admin to run the site how you want it because you're struggling to find meets?
Whilst we can't ignore there are fakes on the site they're easy enough to find and avoid.
Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results...maybe try a new approach and see if you have more interest there. |

This is true. Even someone with like 30 veris and after talking for months completely ghosted me the day we were meant to meet. |

We have only ever encountered this once so far! The thing is...it was very very obvious! We simply blocked said person. Its a shame really. We work hard all week, we have kids, our time is limited, we always try to be very upfront and honest about what we are looking for to try and save everyone's time including our own. We all have a life outside of fab, but when we have free "fab time' we are genuinely looking to meet...we don't have time for fakes or time wasters and it is very frustrating. Best thing to do is try not to let it get to you...block and move on...but yes it is frustrating |

Fundamentally true, but how do you propose it's stopped? Given sites such as Facebook are rife with them also, and they are farrrr more sophisticated than this, it seems like a nigh on impossible task, no? |

We have had many meets cancelled last minute and even worse meeting them and the woman running to the toilet crying because she wasn’t up for it . Sorry no one should take one for the team . Now we are very choosy who we meet now xx |

"Best thing to do, meet in the clubs then there's no let down or time wasting. Even better, it's your rules x"
That is generally good advice but it's not always possible for people to visit clubs, not everyone likes them either. |

There are undoubtedly lots of profiles that aren't what they claim to be, often they are easy to spot, but not always. I'm not sure what more admin can realistically do to ensure profiles are genuine.
If you come across an account that you think is fake then report it so admin can investigate.
As far as time wasters go, that is even more difficult because different people have different expectations from, and ways of using, the site. Some are just here for the fantasy of it all and have no intention of ever meeting, unfortunately they arent always up front about it.

From experience, I think you can tell a great deal from email exchanges and photos. I've corresponded with a great deal of very pleasant and authentic people who have never given me cause for concern. |

Op you already have a very similar thread running.
Maybe you need to change your vetting process or breathe and have patience.
As single guys are told endlessly on these types of threads - if someone really wants to meet you, they will!! |

I’ve had two guys recently say they were keen to meet up and both ghosted me. Now one has a verification up. Common decency and he would’ve messaged to say why he wasn’t meeting for a coffee but I guess people don’t have manners on here at times. I’ve always given notice if I can’t meet and the reason. Real life does get in the way but people should still be respectful. Some people don’t deserve a second chance. |

Reading between the lines here- (that was hard due to the lack of punctuation)
You're hacked off because people don't want to meet people they aren't attracted to. So you've been knocked back or someone has changed their mind.
You feel their preferences shouldn't matter because it's not like it's a relationship. I'd be pretty annoyed if someone who didn't really fancy me had sex with me anyway..
You've had your ego dented and when you've been told to get over it and now you've had a hissy fit.
You've come to the conclusion everyone is a fake or a time waster, rather than evaluating your own expectations or approach.
Like so many others on here you seem to think anyone on here should be up for meeting at all times regardless. It smacks of entitlement.
Did I miss anything out?
By the way I'm very happy to be a fussy fake

Vetting! Does that consist of you taking any possible partners to the vets for a check up |

"Not one full-stop.
"Waisters"
Are those like hipsters but worn higher up?"
You are in fact refering to HIGH Waisters, a standard popular style of trouser garmet fashionable in the 70's. These fashionable garmets also merited a "cool" persona based on how many buttons were displayed at the waist.
How many up was the question of the day. I myself sported a light blue 3 up, seductivley additioned with a 2 inch turn up and 10 inch flare.
You may also wish to reference Wedges from this time period.
For more interesting facts around 70s fashion please reference my website. |

Especially if you're a single guy as a lot of clubs won't let us in on our own. |
