Too many verifications

There seems to be a sort of snobbery about single men and women with lots of verifications.

Seems a bit mad to me- if someone is genuinely single and mostly has sex in clubs or via this site then they will accumulate lots of verifications

Couples seem to forget that they have sex as a couple and Fab is an extra

For us singles our verifications may be all the sex we are having!

such a sensible and seriously intelligent point made ... we see verifications as part of the overall due diligence process ... it makes sense and it is welcomed

Yes, it's a Fab minefield!

You can have too many veries or not enough, or the wrong sort from the wrong people or the right sort from the wrong people or the wrong sort from the right people at the wrong time.

You can be damned for showing them, and damned for not showing them...

Dont worry about it. It's all a load of bollocks at the end of the day.

To me it means you actually meet people rather than just a picture hunter or fantasist.

There definately is as far as couples are concerned. One couple I knew really looked down on single people with loads of veris whilst having well over 100 themselves lol. Pot, kettle and black.

I see reaction to my veris as a bit of a filter. If you have a problem, then we don't need to meet.

I only ask for veris every now and then, just to prove I am who I say I am. I don't feel the need to collect one from every man I meet. I don't publish them, I feel that would be showing off a bit. Ironic really as I like to read men's veris before meeting them.

We have people saying we have too many. So only show a handful of recents. I've been swinging 11 years. Spread our veris over that time it's around 1 or 2 a year. If we had all our veris in a week, would people see it any differant?

The swinging sceane is a very alturnitive lifestyle. Although swingers can be very judgemental.

Veris are just an indication of a real person, people still get messed around by verified profiles

Totally agree!

Plus the veri’s are often accumulated over many years.

It’s an imperfect system. Often as a male you’re best meets never get a veri, or they go off the site and the veri disappears!!

However few or many verifications matters not one bit, those that have an issue with you having too many really are not worth worrying about because why would you want to meet judgemental snobs?

“Problem” is you cannot refuse or reject a verification ( I think there are rules if it’s fake but how do you prove that?!!! )

Veris actually serve a few purposes for us

A. They show we are up for fun with no drama

B. People can gauge what we are like

C. The dreamers, messers, snobs avoid us (win, win)

D. We give veris as a thank you note

E. That we actually play not just talk about it

When I meet someone I tend to ask them if it’s ok for me to leave them a verification as I know not everyone wants one.I have no

problem doing a verification for someone I have met and if I get one back great and if I don’t So what it’s not the end of the world.

I used to display veris but I had unpleasant messages coming from men who read them or even bit of jealousy from those I met before and they commented on veris from someone else. So I don't show them now but happy to reveal if anyone asks just to prove I'm real.

Because I only need people to know I'm real and 1 or 2 recent veris is enough for that. Anything else feels like bed post notching!

Yup indeed. I wish there will be one day when I don't block anyone. I think it can only happen when I don't log into fab for 24 hours

. Not sure why someone wouldn’t want one a couple I met for a social said they didn’t want one which I thought a little strange but I respected there decision and a couple of single ladies I met said the same thing again I respected their decision.After all you don’t have to display for all to see and like I said earlier if you want to give me a verification back great if not so what it’s not the end of the world.

It's not always the couples...we as a couple have had single women say we have too many verifications. If you read them...most of them are just social verifications from people we've met at club. Being we primarily meet at clubs..we meet a lot of people

The verification minefield......

I've had 2 social meets cancel and block me because I'd had a social meet with someone they don't like.

If I'd fucked her I'd kind of understand it, although I'd still do the rolls eyes thing.

But over a social? Get the fuck over yourselves.

Someone said I have too many social verifications. Her profile insisted on a social meet first. And she had more than me.

Someone the other day was whining that hidden verifications was an alarm bell. Same thread someone else said hiding veris was a good idea.

You just can't win.

If my verifications, the number of them, that they're hidden or not hidden, my summary is visible or hidden puts you off meeting me, super.

I only want to meet open minded non judgemental people.

Job done.

If we don't display our veri's people presume they are play veri's and are put off or the wrong ones attracted, though I have wondered if a lot of social veri's put people off from playing? Either way, makes no diffrence to us!

You’re absolutely right OP. I’ve gotten to the point where I don’t care about other’s judgement anymore. If they’d rather not meet me because of how many people I’ve met, or who I’ve met, for that matter, that is entirely their prerogative! It’s not my job to change their mind. XD

I've never seen the point of them. I sometimes think people seem to use them as a sort of boasting. I mean do you really need 100s of verifications of meeting at clubs and socials? Surely one is enough to prove that you're genuine. And all the sex details are they for real!

I like to see varifications on a profile .It gives some indication as to what they are like . I like to read their varifications and can see how many are a play or just social. I have plenty myself as I have co hosted swinging social events and love to visit different clubs. That's not to say I've slept with all my varifications.

If it puts people off me then I probably wouldn't want to meet them in the first place.

We read verifications but only to get an idea of what they are like. People who visit clubs and parties tend to get lots of verifications but that doesn’t mean they screwed them all.

I used to worry about the contents of the veris on my page, but I've let it go. I can't control much about what others say about me. (I don't give graphic veris myself) I realised I judged the giver not the displayer on graphic content. (others may feel differently of course)

I always think its a bit odd on a so called swingers site where the point is to meet others and have the freedom to do what you like that some would judge others on how many veris they have or who they have met. Some people may hide them all and the summary and have hundreds but you'd not know.

Its a good system but seems to cause a lot of grief for some. I see updates with some saying if they've met a certain person then they won't meet them. I'm sure they don't really care tbh! I've known people to get funny whith others when they haven't verified them but did verify "her" lol, bit sad really.

I don't take any notice of what a stranger has written about another stranger, I'll make my own mind up about a person and hope others do the same.

"I always think its a bit odd on a so called swingers site where the point is to meet others and have the freedom to do what you like that some would judge others on how many veris they have or who they have met. Some people may hide them all and the summary and have hundreds but you'd not know.

It doesn't bother us. Just add it to the spiders web of tightropes that need to be walked on fab.

The hilarious thing is that casual sex in vanilla settings is actually far more "free love" than swinging these days when all these factors are taken into account.

I really don't mind the amount of veris - I rarely display any play meets so for all anyone could know, I could be out fucking every night. And you don't get veris from every sexual partner/encounter you have so I think it can be a bit daft getting too hung up on it. I want people I meet to be having great sex (as long as I feature somewhere in there!) and the amount doesn't bother me. The content can sometimes.

I like to see varifications on a profile .It gives some indication as to what they are like . I like to read their varifications and can see how many are a play or just social. I have plenty myself as I have co hosted swinging social events and love to visit different clubs. That's not to say I've slept with all my varifications.

If it puts people off me then I probably wouldn't want to meet them in the first place.

Doesn’t bother me one bit the number of veris, I meet and play in clubs so only see if they’ve been veri’d if they’d given me their name (and I remembered it).

Think it’s a bit hypocritical on a swinging site to judge people on the number of veris people have, I’ve a fair few but I don’t ask for veris nor do I chase them I’d have a lot more if I did and actually told people my fab name!

If I get them I return the favour though.

"There seems to be a sort of snobbery about single men and women with lots of verifications.

Seems a bit mad to me- if someone is genuinely single and mostly has sex in clubs or via this site then they will accumulate lots of verifications

Couples seem to forget that they have sex as a couple and Fab is an extra

For us singles our verifications may be all the sex we are having! "

I couldn't care less about the number of veries or who gave them. Given that I've only got 6 most social ones and Ive been on the scene 7 years.... Well let's just say that I've done more than just socialise in the past 7 years.

"I see reaction to my veris as a bit of a filter. If you have a problem, then we don't need to meet. "
that's my attitude

.I wouldn't mind but it's not anywhere near an indication of actually how many people I've had sex with.

For instance a group session a few weeks back that was over 20 guys.. 4 verified me.

I also do meet the odd person off fab... so there are those too.

It makes me giggle if someone says I have to many... I normally say you would have kittens if you knew the real number then

Someone said I have too many social verifications. Her profile insisted on a social meet first. And she had more than me.

Someone the other day was whining that hidden verifications was an alarm bell. Same thread someone else said hiding veris was a good idea.

A lifestyle like ours should be one where people are non judgmental, with a 'Live and let live' attitude, but so many appear to be more so than in the real world. Think what some have said on here hits the nail on the head in questioning whether those who look down on others would be people you'd actually want to get to know. I'd much rather be in the company of Nice people who make each other feel valued.

I try and be as open minded as possible - but if I see someone has met with multiple people that I wouldn’t meet, then it is off putting. It makes me question their standards, and that in turn leads me to question their sexual health (which might be an unreasonable train of thought) and after that I’m instantly turned off.

And in reverse, if they have amazing verifications off tons of hotties and sensible people then it’ll make me even more eager to meet them.

I’m sure people probably go through the same process when viewing my profile and make decisions based on whatever their view is.

And the fee thing has been done to death. Idiots still site support. Making the fee higher and/or compulsory will drive away those with less money, which isn't just idiots. "

I'm a site supporter, which is ironic because if a subscription was mandatory I wouldn't use the site at all. I appreciate the availability of a'premium' option and to some extent I feel like it might mark me out as less of a potential time waster considering I'm a single guy, unverified and all that good stuff.

I had 11 veris before I left and returned but lost them all.

Its an interesting dichotomy as this is a sex/ sensuality based site and whilst many here hate the rhetoric that comes with being labelled promiscuous, many seem far too quick to judge others.

I remember saying to a lover that I would prefer if she had 400 lovers than be a virgin ( but not all in the same night) when she was concerned about her 'count'. (I was attempting to ease her concerns)

And now I cannot get a veri nor do people reply to my messages.

For me this site smacks of judgement concerning labels IE; sexual status and age.

Footnote is that I appreciate others wish to know a bit about me for their safety. But i have yet to be asked to meet on cam , talk on the phone or indeed 'meet in a public place'.

For club feedback, I have to be on here for a month, which I think I now am since I rejoined.

But others feel that I am 'not right for them' due to having attended various clubs.

Of course we all have preferences, but getting back on topic, feedback has been focused more around quantity.

The earlier post concerning sexual health may be a contributing factor.

I am screened every couple of months and follow all safe sex practices, but again others could view this as dangerous, which again seems an oxymoron for this site.

It makes me question their standards, and that in turn leads me to question their sexual health (which might be an unreasonable train of thought) and after that I’m instantly turned off.

And in reverse, if they have amazing verifications off tons of hotties and sensible people then it’ll make me even more eager to meet them.

I’m sure people probably go through the same process when viewing my profile and make decisions based on whatever their view is."

Do you actually read the veris or just assume they are all one night stands for sex? You see, that's the problem with a lot of judgemental people on here, they can't see past the numbers and just make incorrect assumptions a lot of the time. Attending repeat meets, parties, clubs and organised socials can very quick rack up a large number of veris. Also, fab only states over a year, the person could have been on here 3, 5 or 10 years and have that amount. I choose not to display my summary as narrow minded people will judge without reading and assume they have all been within a year, when in fact I've been here 4 years. Your post leads me to believe that you do make assumptions.

Why is it narrow minded though? I won't meet people with more than 4 sex veris showing and I have my reasons for that.

People will be attracted to things they like. So the ones who like to see lots of veris will want to meet the person with lots showing.

You're also quite judgemental in how you have just assumed that it's just the numbers imo. For some it's maybe the way the numbers are accrued. One example could be that as you say those who go to clubs accrue loads. One can look at that and think, clubs=less selective (based upon see, fancy, fuck in the moment). Could be gangbangs=less scrupulous to get the numbers, (many never have been met prior to the event and most likely never meet again). Party again similar to clubs approach with group plays.

I'm just giving examples that may not be purely about the numbers but more the type of fabber and the way they acquire the numbers.

Eh? Nothing to do with numbers. I see my post got people heated for some reason. I clearly stated that it’s MY issue and that I recognise it’s unreasonable.

But to reiterate - if a persons veri’s are from a people that a) have visibly poor health b) have photos showing themselves doing bareback c) have met anonymous gloryhole profiles that have in turn met dozens of anonymous people

Then I won’t meet them. It’s my choice for my health. Of course it’s not fool proof but it’s a filter of sorts.

Nothing to do with numbers at all. We all make choices based on something (at least I hope everyone else does). Is that unreasonable?

Not unreasonable at all.

It wasn't that long ago that I posted about asking someone if I could view their summary and veries, (Won't meet anyone who hides them, what else are they hiding), I got told I was being rediculous...lol.

In what way was it judgemental? That I use it as a filter much like others use age and not meeting someone them to see if they look or act a particular age? I think those who thought thought felt it unfair that someone is filtered because of verifications imo.

Not all my veris are from playing. I organise a quiz team of Fabbers, I’ve hosted socials and visited clubs. I rarely show or give a veri that’s from a play meet.

So far on fab I’ve learned that it’s ok for people to say things “no Blacks or Asians” because “it’s preference”.

But it’s bad and “judgemental” for people to have a preference based on verifications? (Which is something totally in your control).

Oooookay then

Odd most of ours are social, the play/repeat ones we don’t verify.

You've noticed that too. My take is that it excludes them, no one likes to be excluded, irrespective of whether they wanted to meet or not. By taking away that choice they feel grieved.

Hope you do find what you're looking for. You never know where you might find it.

I can think of two women in here, who turned me down with "Sorry, you're too active for me"

But I have also received a few "Wow, great profile, and awesome verifications! When can you meet?"

Each to their own
