I know I am not alone in encountering timewasters on here,men pretending to be a couple,dreamers,etc but what percentage would you estimate are on here and have no intention of ever meeting anyone off here,I guess around 70%,to high or to low?

I wouldn't waste your time worrying about it Not that high I wouldn't think, all depends on your definition of a time waster, everyone's seems to be different.

I think you will probably find that women are not time wasters their inundated and usually by disrespectful people. I bet the time wasting women are men pretending to be women.

I've had plenty of men wasting my time unfortunately it's just the sort of people this website attracts

In 2yrs ive had one who stood me up , so its hard to judge as thats how I see a timewaster, many people see timewasters differently, I was called a timewaster once for not meeting a guy I had not arranged to meet so I couldnt work that out

Reply privately (closed, thread got too big)

 

By (user no longer on site)  over a year ago

I find it takes persistence and dedication to actually get a meet but after that they are usually successful. So I out most timewasters early on.

Only 2 that I can think of that were deliberate timewasters off a previous site.

I think there are very few timewasters as you put it I do think there are a number of people who are selective who they meet and like to get to know people before they meet.

I also think there are a lot of frustrated guys who think everyone should be mad to meet them no matter what and its a disappointment they don't see the big picture.

Everyone's _iew of a time waster is probably different. Some may say you're a time waster for wanting a social meet first, a time waster if you chat then realise they're not for you so decline, a time waster for not meeting there and then etc etc. I've seen many status updates naming people as time wasters but when you look at their profile they have many up to date veri's so I guess to some, a time waster is someone who won't meet them!!!

When you actually encounter as in meet someone they tend not to be timewasters. It's just a matter of ing out those who have no intention of meeting,men pretending to be couples or single women etc. Experience usually teaches you how to spot them fairly early on.

MAMOBA, miles and miles of bugger all (Aberdeenshire)

So far, by my definition of a timewaster - where you plan a meet and don't show, I'm at 0%

I'm pretty harsh though, someone starts messing about regarding meeting without an explanation or fair notice then thats it, no more chances.

And I do meet socially first, and chat for a while on here before meeting.

No time wasters regarding arranged meets but we've had a few who start chatting, they suggest a meet then when we agree and ask when they are free they stop responding. We're guessing that they just want their ego stroking??

sadly there are males, females and couples on here that appear to "timewaste" we personally dont let it get us down we just think "sad folk, their loss" and move on perhaps if less people worried about it there would be less negativeness about the site which lets face it is one of few provided free for those of us that are genuine (and yes perhaps thats why their are timewasters but other pay sites seem as bad tbh)

If someone is good act maths perhaps they could work out the percentage.

We went out to brum for the night a few weeks ago. We gave 6 guys off fab our telephone number who said they wanted to meet us. We had a hotel room booked so we could be private. Our friend also invited 3 guys to meet at there hotel. Only one turned up, all the others had reasons why they let us down. 1 chap out of 9. ???

Lot of couples seem to talk a good game but bottle it when it comes to meeting, very easy to flirt online but to do it face to face takes confidence, wouldn't class it as timewasting just folk reaching their limits quickly.

Seems to us a lot like "sieving" - significant proportion (over half who contact us?) are "dreamers" or some other category who talk but that has no "action" counterpart in reality.

It seems hard work at times setting up meets or - for really hard work - setting up a group session.

That said, we've had "the real world" make demands on us and cause us to withdraw from arrangements we've been forming.

So I guess - be broad-shouldered, don't judge, "keep irons in the fire", don't imagine conspiracies if folk drop out, etc.

I do this too and been accused of timewasting for it. Some people see getting to know potential meets as a waste of their time, as if they think you'll jump into bed with them with no interaction beforehand.

I have never had someone not turn up for an arranged meet and only two couples not turn up for a party. So my experience has been a good one.

Never had a no show as a single male or as a couple.

Fairly strict filters mean that timewasters and fantasists are a virtually non-existent irrelevance.

People that say the figure is high should look at what they are doing wrong and what they can change.

I'd say they had done the complete opposite of waste your time. They've made it clear they're not meeting so you can move on to another profile and not waste your time.

The only people who have wasted time in that situation is you. They have been truthful about whether they are meeting if you chose to not move onto the next profile is that their fault? Or are you going to demand they meet?People are allowed to take a break

I rarely encounter proper time wasters however I have had my share of 'just trying my luck' guys who message and even meet but dont carry through. I guess people have their own needs and reasons. I would hate to be labelled a time waster because I did not fancy someone I had met.

"I know I am not alone in encountering timewasters on here,men pretending to be a couple,dreamers,etc but what percentage would you estimate are on here and have no intention of ever meeting anyone off here,I guess around 70%,to high or to low?"

70% far too low try 90-95%. Having said that 100% with the meets I have had.

Luckily, have not encountered any time wasters. I think maybe because we go to a club. Did meet a nice guy off here a couple of times. But he kept just arranging pub meets. I think he was just nervous. Not a time waster though.

I am still not entirely sure what a time waster is. I would say it's somebody who doesn't let you know that they can't meet you.

It's very telling that in this thread it's mainly men saying it's a high percentage.

Guessing its because of their high expectations and low brain power when aroused.

"In my experience I've encountered 0 % time wasters

"

mr we have started to see a trend in the swinging couples we have chatted with or not as some don't even bother a simple thanx but no ta

No 1 time waster .... Couple profile but only he is there and wants to know the ins and outs of what we are looking / wanting from a poss meet with said couple

No 2 time waster .... Couple profile but only a single person behind the messages and I know this now after being on here so long!!!! They start spurting out similaritys to other profiles new to fab ie ... Only been on here mins and the messages oh!!! We can't keep up so please don't get angry if we can't reply .... Bullshit profile only 1 or 2 pics run of the mill ...

No 3 ..time waster ... My personal fav cos we all have done it at some point !!!

The couple are looking for a meet another couple shock horrer I no ...

But we can message them ( let's face not the worst looking or unfun couple going around ) and we check out the profile and it looks good joined in the last few weeks not really got to many pics up but that can be changed then we start to read the smaller stuff the dos and donts when looking over there profile and messaging them ??? Then it hits you there that couple who are always on the lookout for the best meet possible !!!!!

But they are on a hiding to nothing on here lol

Then the status goes up got a meet sorted for tonight but hey the couple they have erranged to meet are still on the lookout for something better !!....

And in the end later on at night you see the status of some of the peeps .... Feckin time wasters this site is shit ..!!! Does anyone actually meet on here ???

What a load of bullshitters on here !!!

Even has one guy put on his status : fuckin Scottish time wasters up here you would not get this shit down south !!

As I put only on our status last night a saying or quote from a very good film :::: riddick Vin Diesil ... You should have taken the first offer tombs !!!!!

Bottom line with time wasters is what goes around comes around and bites you on the ass

but again to me that is not timewasting... because you not doing something you wouldn't be doing anyway, which in your examples is being on here!!

but then, and this is "_abio the hard hearted git" coming out... if you dont learn you are doomed to make the same mistakes again and again and again!

We've been here for about six weeks and are generally pleased with the site. Lots of interesting folk around who are pretty upfront about any potential constraints around meets etc when chatting/setting up. This is especially true of women, whether single or as part of a couple. Our _iew is that the majority of members aren't here to waste anyone's time deliberately. If a meet doesn't come off for some reason and you've invested time to set up, sure it's disappointing, but not indicative of wilful time-wasting.

However, please ignore all of the above when it comes to "single men" who say they are "happy" to meet socially before soft swinging (our preferred initial contact). To those users, that DO flagrantly waste our time with no intention of ever making a meet, we politely make this request:

Gents, instead of wasting our time investing in lengthy threads about likes and dislikes, are you free NOW, can you send sum (sic) xxx pics etc etc, please use that time to learn how to string a proper sentence together so that you can tell us succintly, and clearly, that you're only chatting to us because you want to come and fuck my wife whilst yours is out on the school run.

Thank you.

I like to think that I have quite a good system for ensuring my time is not wasted. Wouldn't meet unverifieds/newbies etc etc but even I have had a few no shows lately. I think the reality for alot of men is that they bottle it. Would I really want to meet someone that spineless? Really they are doing me a favour. Never meet outside a club so their loss - I still get to play.

Not really. You don't have to sign a contract when you join to meet x amount of people whilst on here and there are many people who are here just to chat or use the forums etc. I have spoken to a disabled guy who is unable to meet but enjoys the site very much. Difference is, time wasters won't make that clear on their profile although I find with experience, gut instinct and use of message filters, most are easy to avoid.

"Seems to us a lot like "sieving" - significant proportion (over half who contact us?) are "dreamers" or some other category who talk but that has no "action" counterpart in reality.

It seems hard work at times setting up meets or - for really hard work - setting up a group session.

That said, we've had "the real world" make demands on us and cause us to withdraw from arrangements we've been forming.

So I guess - be broad-shouldered, don't judge, "keep irons in the fire", don't imagine conspiracies if folk drop out, etc.

"

There is another thread running at the moment about organising gangbangs which touches on the theme of guys bailing on them at the last moment.

The ones I have attended, which are more like group sex sessions rather than GBs, ie no more than 3 men, have been arranged with guys that they have met before, either in group or 121, and have consistently turned up.

He has been able simply to switch the mix of known guys but, because of their track record and reliability, all of them turn up. For slightly larger gatherings they can risk including the odd "newbie" but always insists on a social meet first.

Definitely not. Nobody dictates whether I will meet or not. That would be open to abuse by people who have been turned down.

How would you implement this? How long do people have? If people haven't met after 3 months should they be struck off? 6 months? 12? What if they have some veris but haven't met for several months or a year or two? Should they be struck off? What if they just want to come on here and chat to people they know, read stories and contribute to the Forums? Sadly, there will always be people who are all talk and no action on sites such as these but no easy way of ing them out. Can't see an easy way of addressing that, personally

There might be any number of reasons why people haven't met. They might choose not to meet, not have found anyone suitable, or have just not been capable of attracting anyone as is the case in all the It's-not-fair-I-can't-get-a-meet threads.

Should their profiles all be deleted?

So, I'm not prepared to meet because at the moment as I only want to share my sex life with my fiancé right now. Does that mean that I should be deleted too? That I should be prevented from enjoying the banter in the chatrooms with my friends that I have known for a couple of years?

What a crock of shite!

People use this site for many reasons, some of them social rather than sexual. If you encounter people who do not wish to meet then move on to the next profile. Use fab as you see fit and leave the rest of us to do the same

Not as ridiculous as you might think would get rid of alot of fakes on here and people who "just wanna chat" can use facebook instead.Alot of people on here seem to enjoy the chase but bottle it when it comes down to it which is why club meets are so much more a reliable way of meeting people

so the people that meet but dont get verified - the voyeurs - people who have friends here but choose just use chatroom/forums - all the willing guys that are not getting any response - all these and more probably should be deleted because they dont or appear to not meet - OH MY DAYS - such a crazy idea

So you are banning people from chatting on here and suggesting they use facebook instead. Some women dont fall for the 'fancy a fuk' messages and have to see if they are compatible with potential playmates. Maybe what you need is an escort site where a fuck is guaranteed with no small talk. Your idea is ridiculous.

I've had plenty of men wasting my time unfortunately it's just the sort of people this website attracts "

50% of couples I have encountered have been dreamers, male half hoping to twist the females arm, in many cases she is not even aware of her partners actions.

But there are many who feel its within their right to treat single guys just as they wish just because the site is awash with single guys.

Many single people come and go because they are also seeking serious relationships on other sites.

"I know I am not alone in encountering timewasters on here,men pretending to be a couple,dreamers,etc but what percentage would you estimate are on here and have no intention of ever meeting anyone off here,I guess around 70%,to high or to low?"

It seems pretty pointless in guessing the percentage and much more useful to be able to recognise the signals that you're dealing with a timewaster, and those are mostly based on common sense

To me a timewaster is someone who arranges a meet but has no intention of meeting. I've had plenty of these but fortunately not had any no shows .

Its different for everybdy because everybody has a differnt idea of what constitutes a "time waster"

Its very subjective. One (Wo)mans timewaster is another (Wo)mans perfect gentleman/Lady.

Prepared to meet? Or prepared to meet anyone?

There's a huge difference !

There's many we wouldn't dream of meeting in a thousand years - others we'd be happy to if time permitted.

Never had any myself.

I've had long chats with people that have never led to a meet and I've had meets cancelled, but I don't regard that as timewasting - just the nature of the game.

One no show in the 3 years I've been on here, a small handful of fantasists who, after a bit of conversation, never intended actually meeting, a couple of cancelled meets for "dodgy" reasons, several cancelled meets for valid reasons and a couple of hundred bloody brilliant social and sexual meets...only the first of my list is counted as a proper time waster in my eyes - even the fantasists aren't really wasting my time as I'd probably be online perving anyhow

I'd say they had done the complete opposite of waste your time. They've made it clear they're not meeting so you can move on to another profile and not waste your time. "

Exactly!

"Im all in favour of people who are not prepared to meet at some stage or another on Fab should have their profile automatically deleted anybody else agree ???"

and just of curiosity how do you police this??

Do you ask them?? Cause iam pretty sure most would say yes??

Or perhaps if you hadnt had a meet for a while...shall we say 6 months?? Well that would mean your deleted!!

Yes theres dreamers.....fantasists....its a free website so comes with the territory.....we have never had a problem....0% time wasters...but on the other hand we could be deemed time wasters as we have chatted t couples and singles but never followed it through because unfortunately we have what is called a 'life' outside of this world that takes priority....work...family etc. Oh how i wished we could party all the time...globe trot the world partying but unless we win the euro millions for us this life will always take 3rd 4th or possibly place in our priorities!

I suggest do a little more ground work and stop worrying about the time wasters.

Of course they are timewasters - they have clearly stated that they are not meeting. Lots of ambiguity there. You spend your time crafting a 'u wanna fuk' message for them to turn you down. Jeez the cheeky of the way some people run their profiles!

I have got so much better at identifying the so called 'timewasters'.

Having said that I still get it wrong,i have met guys who have only been on here 5 mins.(no veri's etc) and have been let down with others who have veri's photo's etc, and may I say often old enough to know better..

As for what percentage fuck about,i haven't a clue..

"‘Timewaster’ and ‘fake’ are the flags held in either hand by the rejected and frustrated as we see it."

Begining to wonder if this is exactly what the issue is here. The closest we have come to a time waster was a couple who clearly was not going to show up, we went out on a shopping trip, then went for a meal and then popped to the pub and waited for them, they didn't show but we had a really nice day and can't say our time was wasted.

I've often wondered if people who get sucked in by fakes and time waster are being too over eager, gullible or too desperate to think things through properly. Having been on the scene myself for over 10 years it's never been a thing that I have had much if any experience with.

this..

its too easy to blame someone else when in reality part of the issue will be for the things correctly said here..

whilst there will always be those looking to dupe or con others there also have to be a percentage of people who fall for the 'timewaster/fake'..

I read more or less this idea on here a while ago, and I'm wondering if suggestions like this are triggered by guys getting turned down for 121 meets and feeling so peeved, so that the question should probably read:-

"all in favour of people who are not prepared to meet me at some stage or another on Fab should have their profile automatically deleted..."

Weve had 1 couple didnt turn up after we travelled 90 mile round trip.

Another couple didnt turn up to a mfmfmmm which was ok for Pip lol. We didnt arrange thatm

Meet btw.

Thats about it. Weve had plenty of lies and exaggeration from singles but careful filtering and sticking to what we want has helped keep the meets real.

Got another club meet up for today. Guess what those fantasists are out in form today. Maybe i should start running a book for how may say 'see you in the club v the reality'

That's been par for the course when I've done similar. People, guys in particular, will always follow the path of least resistance. If you chuck a paywall like a club in front of them which means they have to expend some effort to meet you then they won't be arsed and just watch some porn instead.

Yes I would agree with that.

It's true that "Fake" and "Timewaster" are insults freely and frequently hurled by the rejected and the frustrated, but it doesn't mean that there aren't a good proportion of each out there...
