Is Fabs a busted flush?
Jump to: Newest in thread
Playing devil's advocate here, but is Fabswingers just a pale imitation of what it used to be?
Maybe it's me and I'm just jaded from the whole experience but I've been on here a long time with various profiles and I just don't think it's as good as it was.
Seems to be more attention seeking women after likes and not wanting to meet and more time wasting men who piss off the women and make it harder for genuine guys.

I think a lot of the time expectations are way too high, some people see it as a guranteed sex site and it's not the case. It's what you make it I guess but I think everyone goes through fazes of being exhausted and wondering why they are still here. |

I think Fab has changed from the early days but that is as much to do with social media which basically didn’t exist 10 years ago when Fab started.
Personally I think Fab is great but then my use of it has changed as well but you still get to meet great people if you treat the site right. |

This, people talk differently online than they used to... Also 10 years is a long time, a new younger generation of people are on this site now
I first met people online 20 years ago (including the wife) when it was buletin boards ruling the internet. Communication was different again there too (usually a lot less instant in the replies)
Society evolves, offline and online. |

People have moaned about this site for years, usually because they’re not successful..
The biggest change is the peoples attitudes nowadays..
they expect instant sex the minute they join.
Successful people on here build rapport and friendships first .. |

Fab is what you make it. Focus on your profile and build friendships with those that match. I think a lot of people definitely have an entitled high expectations mindset… |

This ^^^
I recently made some changes and have made some amazing friends in the process.
You have to remember fab is full of different people looking for different things. Find your tribe  |

I used to have a long winded profile..
I now have a short sarcastic one ..
Doesn’t make any difference..In fact I do better with the sarcastic one as it shows I don’t take all this too seriously..
Decent people will always get meets regardless of profile.. personality and respect will always win .. |

"OP obviously can’t comment on state of any of your historical profiles but you can’t expect to get anywhere with the current one !! Surely you realise that?!"
I think it's a pretty good profile, it shows the OP is creative and has a good sense of humour. |

if people dont like the site they should just leave and let the rest of us enjoy it . |

Sorry but single men are to blame. They are the reason why a lot of couples don’t reply. Of course it isn’t them all, but then the majority don’t read profiles or dive in with friend requests or hassle you every 2 mins because you winked back. So that creates a click, a group of people that stick to those they know. Most of the women on here are men too sadly. |

You are joking? It's a superb profile.
Take no notice OP, well played.

Tomayto Tomahto.... some people only interact with the same people on threads... there choice...
Some like to post pics for fabs... there choice...
Some just like to browse and perv... there choice...
People use fab for entirely different purposes... would say its gone down hill just constantly changing. Some new faces and Some that have been here well before alot of us. Not many other sites like this for the price so we'll take the good with the bad and just keep trucking |

Think this just about sums it up . More and more unverified profiles , single guys with no pics , woman with fab my pics to fuck me statuses , people not here to meet just use the forums etc. It’s definitely not what it used to be . Don’t think the introduction of most fabbed pics helped  |

I can't comment on what it used to be like but iv heard from many people that it really was a fab site. Personally I think there needs to be more care taken to who are allowed to join maybe some rules such as if you haven't been verified in a year then off you pop...or no attempt to fill in the "will fill later" but been on long enough to have had the time to do it...sight supporters I think is a bog thing to..there definatly need to be big changes and an updated app..thats just my opinion. |

problem is how can a site pick and choose why joins or who stays who go's ...they cant and the wont ..
the site has always been male heavy changing the amount wont make a blind bit of difference to who suceeds and who dont i could have 200 guys message and not like one to swing with ... see what im saying so you half that number so i get 100 message's im still left with no one to play with ....
see couples like us who have been swinging for years already have a fist full of friends to turn to for regular fun leaving it even more impossible for most guys and then when we pick another play mate he has to fit what we are looking for as well as his own want's and we never go below what we want because we dont have to because we already have a network of contacts to fall back on..
you'll see it often women saying they cant find a meet only for a guy to say well you must be able to as there are lots of us but they are missing the point if theres no conection or sexual attraction then it dont matter even when there are 100s of men per women...
add in to that that a lot of couples only meet couple or women
then add all the women looking for other women or couples
then add in all the club meets only
then add in all the women and couples not looking to meet and just enjoy the site
also remember alot of women and couples leave the scene because of abuse
then that male to female ratio / percentages / sucess rate really go's out the window..... men have alway and will alway have the rought end of the stick on this scene everything is againts them from the start ...
so to stand out men do have to work harder or pay more to get in to a club but when they get it right then it can become easier for them as some prove on here.. its not all six packs and big cocks alot of the most sussesful guys on here are the dad bods or bigger guys who've got smart and worked it out...

Speaking as someone who has veen on Fab on and off for the best part of 15 years it does seem like there is a lot more more hay to find the needles in.
I think that as swinging has become more mainstream there are probably more people on here who like the idea of it more than the reality.
Also it seems like more people are using Fab for another agenda, be it gain more Snapchat or Onlyfans followers or to boost their egos. Society seems more narcissistic now and that is reflected on fab.
That's not to say that there are't some awesome people on here... it's just that they are becoming a smaller percentage of the site. |
