"Depends how long they've been on here. If it's a few months or over a year with no veris then I wouldn't meet them" Agrees..especially couples | |||

"We don't meet if not verified. Our free time is too lacking to waste, as it is." i respect your views but.my time has been wasted by more people that are verified than not vefified. i think i should take everyone at face value if they fuck up then bye bye x | |||

"We have met one Lady that wasn't verified, glad we did as we now see her regularly. However a lot of unverified accounts pop up and then go UNLOS after a few days, and a lot of verified users don't turn up for meets from what people say on the forums. Guess you just have to go with gut instinct and treat the veri's as another price in the puzzle of if they are worth meeting. Don't forget veri's can also be faked. Good luck OP.

Yes the doubt is always there, try not to send face pics or give any details away. I would suggest arranging a social meet at a pub you know well and ask a mate to go with you but sit on another table. That way if they show all good, but you have an easy exit if they aren't what you want. If they don't show you get a night out with your friend, win win. | |||

"We're not verified because we are very slow starters and have spent a lot of time getting to know what's available. I hope this doesn't mean we'll never find someone to meet us and pop our swinging cherry. " having your picture verified is a good start, 8 weeks so far is not too long I guess | |||

If you're talking about spending time to chat to potential meets, then that's spending time, not wasting it... | |||

What is your point?" Well of course that's true, though the term "nutter" is pretty vague and so subject to interpretation, ...it could be someone who has mildly annoyed you for instance which hardly deserves the nutter label,.... Nobody can say for certain how many of them are verified, or indeed if it's a large number...we have no idea., but one or more on the site have attested to their relative sanity so that's something of a filter.which is why it's highly likely there are more of them who are unverified.. | |||

You still don't know them if it was a one off meet and just because someone got on with them doesn't necessarily mean you will. Gut instinct is my way of sorting who to meet. | |||

It's not foolproof no, just like leaving your house all locked isn't a foolproof way of deterring burglars..houses get burgled....but it's a hell of a lot safer than leaving your doors unlocked, ... Similarly you have some backup and some protection via previous experiences when using verifications... | |||

"Well just my two cents on it ... I've been stood up twice so far and both by veris ... Means nothing you just have to chat for a while and figure it out yourself!! My two .... One was quickly arranged and spontaneous so I didn't really get time to chat properly. The second we chatted for a few days and agreed to meet then .... Blanked the day before the meet and a no show. It's all down to your own personal intuition really. You get a "feel" for somebody if you chat for a bit but still going to be left surprised and alone on occasions! That's just the way it is " So did you meet the first one or not? | |||

"I've had luck meeting girls and couples without verifications. Some have asked me not to leave a feedback comment. Usually we'll end up on kik to chat and they'll send pics through there. Very true a lot of people won't have a veri since they simply don't want them !! I've met many who simply aren't interested in giving or getting verifications." I'm not interested in them. I have one which I don't display to get me started in the forum and cannot receive them anyway because of my age filters which I'm not changing now. Some people are obsessed with them seemingly putting more importance on it than the actual meet, ie; need a meet to get verified. There used to be one guy on here that had around 200 and pretty much mentioned this on every thread he posted on which I found quite a turn off. I don't need to read a sexual performance review, I want to know the person is who they claim to be and that can be established by other means. | |||

"Does anyone else worry about Meeting someone that's not verified? Or is it just me that's paranoid? " I wont meet anyone now thats not verified due to the amount of no shows I have had in the past. I now attend a regular organised monthly social and tell any unverifieds if they want to meet me then to turn up at that event, as im already attending they arent wasting my time if they are no shows | |||

"Bit of a catch 22, how do you get verified without a meet." By attending organised socials or going to clubs | |||

It's up to the giver if they choose to give, I don't think people should have to ask for verifications. | |||

"I just don't trust verifications as far as I can throw them anyway. A little while back there was a woman selling verifications for £20 via her escorting profile. How are any of the men she verified any safer or more reliable than those who didn't pay for one off a random? " Only £20? My that's a bargain, surely single women should offer them £100 each and couples should offer at £100 as £100 per head | |||

"We were all unverified once.....used my intuition and i have had no problems meeting unverified people at times." I don't personally know any lady or couple that will meet an unverified party (male, female or couple) and while I agree with your point we all started unverified, should the "verification olive branch" (by demographic) be extended by guys first or should ladies and couples be encouraged to "lower their standards" and give other unverified people a chance? From a guy's perspective we are constantly being told "go to a social" and while this absolutely works (for myself and loads of other guys) should the same not be said to everyone and not just guys? | |||

If the men stopped meeting unverified women then the need for women to also attend social events would increase As it stands, there is no such need | |||

"Bit of a catch 22, how do you get verified without a meet. By attending organised socials or going to clubs" One if the other sites am on also encouraged this. Only problem at the time was the only "sanctioned" site socials were held at a club on couples only nights, and the guys told to "contact a lady going to see if she'd agree to pair up for the night" (even though there was no published guest list). The bug problem here was first time visitors to the club had to get membership including couples, and they could only attend the club together on that membership as though they were a legit couple. | |||

"If the men stopped meeting unverified women then the need for women to also attend social events would increase As it stands, there is no such need" The only unverified profile I'm prepared to meet either has to have proof by webcam (usually in the chat room, privately if they prefer), or chat on the phone (not text/WhatsApp/Kik): something to prove they are who they say they are. If we've met socially but they were still unverified I have no problem there either. I however don't accept, or give, webcam verifications: too many people walking around with only webcam verifications (no meet/social veris) yet saying "But I'm genuine". Also, too mnay guys falling for the " if you verify me that we've met, then I'll meet you " line. | |||

There seems to be a tacit assumption here that verifications are the ONLY things that people rely on.. I don't think anyone has specifically said that and that most would take them into account, and some may not meet anyone without a veri, but that is not to say that people regard it as the only criterion or tool. We use common sense and judgement, chat, photos, forum contributions, etc., to assist our decision. It's not just veris alone. | |||

"Not the slightest bit interested in verifications: never look for them or at them; I trust my own judgement ^^^ This, for me. Plus, a first meet is always social-only, in a public place, so I know I will be safe." This for me too! | |||
