Is it about time " meeting in person " and "webcam " verifications were separated into two different categories of verification ?
I.E one a green tick and the other a blue tick ?
This is in the interest of public safety !
I stringly urge the operators of the site to get behind this please ?
Webcam verifications prove very little about how a person acts when meeting vulnerable people .

quite honestly if someone is a crazy they will hide it until they get you alone and would be well able to carry out a social meet and appear quite normal in order to get verified.
There is no way of maintaining 100% safety |

I don't think webcam should have any tick whatsoever , being on cam dosen't make you a swinger and as this is a swingers site i think it shouldn't class as a bonafide verification !
yes it may verify that you are who you say you are but that doesn't mean its definitely going to be the same people that you meet in person ! |

While I don't understand where vulnerable people or public safety come in to this, I do think the site should distinguish between actual meets and webcam veritications |

and thats what the verifications...to verify the person is who they say they are...
not to verify if they are a swinger or indeed the worlds best shag.
*I like my veris I admit..but I've been verified on cam and verified others on cam...on the premise they were/are who they say they are.Sometimes I've met them in person...not everyone can meet as easily as people want to expect. |

I dont know where this myth of finding a meet is difficult comes from ?

Meeting in person isn't entirely indicative of a person's behaviour. Meeting once can give you an idea of personality and if you are attracted to them. A verification,for the purpose of the site,is to prove they are the person/s on their profile. Anything else is subjective and learnt from experience |

"Yes vulnerable
Meeting a stranger who doesnt turn out to be the person u thought they were makes u vulnerable .
It does but you can minimise your vulnerability, meet in a club for instance."
Thats right
But do u know how many people have invited me round to there houses on the very first meet ?

I think you mean gullible.
the person they meet via webcam is clearly defined by the verification that was left.Its harder to hide who you are over webcam than it is via pics..
live and let live..if you dont like webcam verifications...dont meet people who only them.
There are people with veris from meets from several years ago..I'd hold a recent webcam veri possibly in higher regard. |

That can be the same for someone thats had a meet verification too,I don't see how a webcam veri makes someone more or less of a threat to public safety

So shouldnt be verified |

Meeting a stranger you shouldn't have any preconceptions about them. Lots of people can verify a person from a social event and not have sex with them. One to one,in a sexual setting they can be totally different. You have to make your own mind up about people,I believe |

Perhaps but surely anything that makes people safer is worth a try .
Yoir a cpl so probably doesnt include u as u meet together |

And how does eliminating webcam verifications alter that? |

I think you have misread what I meant about people not being able to meet as quickly as some would like.Much like the people who dont cam, there are people who are still gauging the site and how they might eventually play..if they ever do.
there is no myth about meets not happening from the site..I do pretty well as a single guy  |

weve met people in person and had a cup of coffee and a chat - been verified for that too - we use the verification to mean yes they are a couple as opposed to a single male - yes they do actually exist not that they have had sex with us/;anybody |

Neither is having a drink in a pub. A verification isn't a review or recommendation. It's to verify as genuinely the person on the profile |

As others have said a verification is just that, to verify the person is a male, a female or a couple. It isn't a system of reviews, recommendations etc. I note you don't show your veris, why is that?   |

Webcam Veris are worthless and should be scrapped!
You never know if the verifier has been conned by a carefully-used video clip - I've seen it tried enough times!
I want a verification to mean that somebody has actually turned up in person - it's by no means proof that they are safe and genuine, but it does add to a bigger picture...

"Doesn't it say on the veris if it's a Web cam or an "in person" one?
Not if it's hidden.
theres a summary lots of people use too"
Not when they have something to hide |

I, and probably most people wouldn't know where to start to use a video and pass off as live cam? Having someone exchange conversation and interact on cam would say to me they are a real person. As you say just because someone turns up to a meet is not proof of not being a compete nutter or even unpleasant, smelly, weird or creepy. Only ever meet in clubs and rarely prearranged. Maybe that makes us time wasters and not "real swingers"  |

That is true, but that same argument applies to meet verifications.Just because someone has a meet vert,dont actually mean they have ever actually met anyone..it can also be faked... |

I hid my summary because I had a webcam chat one then the man left the site,so you couldn't see it was just a chat. People got the wrong impression  |

"Just scrap web cam veri just as the phone veri a while back...proves absolutely nothing apart from they can sit in front of a PC "
I've seen a number of people suggesting that some cams aren't real but are 'videos'
I often put this down to the fact that they're just bitter that the person in question isn't responding to them - ignoring of course the fact that the user in question may in fact be in a PM session.
That said, it doesn't rule out the possibility that some may actually be using video loops - so if anything, the cam veri doesn't really prove that the user is who they claim to be.
If that makes any sense. |

i assumed any sort of verification wasnt to prove you are a swinger just that you are a flesh and blood human being.Im sure the site owners know what they doing lol  |

web cam verifications count for something - i get that people say some are videos but why verify them if you havent interracted - just watching a screen doesnt mean anything but having a chat or similar must do - we havent used this but i dont see the need to scrap it - |

Personally I will only verify people that I meet in person.

if we meet people its a risk anyway - a social in a public place would not show how a person behaves behind closed doors if they were inclined to be ill natured or whatever - i see why a lot of people only meet in clubs for this reason - but .... as most things its just the odd one person and the site isnt responsible for who we meet - its up to our own judgement - if people choose to meet off a web veri then thats up to them - |

go into a scotland cam room on a nite thats a social...and its usually pretty empty.Lots of them have webcam verification...its probably the same in a good few rooms.
All I'm hearing is those with webcams veris must be a timewasters,dangerous, or a video...
I've been on the site several years...basically started with the chatrooms...various people I havent met..but I know they are REAL people...regardless of whether I've met them or no-one has.
In my view its mostly idiots that get webcam-conned..or is this merely about an intolerance of how others use the site.. |

"I take no notice of webcam verifications
We are of a similar mind they are just a waste of time as we see them. "
If after a number of months on fab the only verification obtained is by webcam then our view is that they are regarded as unverified.
For new members it is maybe a gentle way to get involved but if they are to be regarded as serious then they need to get properly verified. |

And of course, that is your opinion and if you choose to run your profile in this way that's your choice, some people may not though and taking away their choice is not equitable |

In that case, why not three icons or colours, one for each type of encounter |

The site does distinguish between the two some people rather than a blind meet like to see on cam first to simply sample they are who they say they are besides any specific doubting others best see on cam as their pictures could be out of date and not a true representation. Its not blind date for some and afterall seeing is believing esp if there is any doubt. |

You seem confused. I am not sure where you get the idea that I am taking away peoples choices?
I didn't suggest anything of the sort.
All I was saying was that in our view webcam verifications are of very limited value if any at all. |
