I know there's a lot of people that are on here just to chat and perv at the photos and post their own which is absolutely fine.
There are a growing number of users that have been on here for over a year that say they are looking for meets but with no verifications.
I know you can filter out all the profiles with no verifications but that leaves out all the new users that could be potentially a lovely meet!
I've wasted my time having protracted conversations with people that have no intention of meeting. I know this is one of the pitfalls of Fab but it's kinda annoying! |

"What's the difference between someone with a year old profile that will never meet, and someone with a new profile that will never meet?"
I don't know, what is the difference between someone with a year old profile that will never meet, and someone with a new profile that will never meet? Lol |

I don't take any notice of verifications...I've only had one time waster. I don't feel the need to advertise my sexual history, I feel that it's private, if someone dismisses me based on my decision, I understand and accept that. |

If they are clear that they are not here to meet then that's fine
I think the op is saying it's the ones who pretend they are up for meets who actually have no intention of playing
I too find this frustrating
I guess the clues are there but.......  |

This is why I set timescales from initial chat to a meet. If no meet within a few weeks I move on. In my experience people are quick to say "soon" but have no intention to meet.
Yes the flip side is the other person may be busy or may want to chat more etc.. but that ultimately is their problem. |

And then there are those that meet plenty and choose not to be verified.....I've met guys with none who do very well on the meet front and in clubs....verifications don't mean a thing. |

True. Some need to use them as a good indicator. Others just have very good judgement.  |

We have met over a hundred newbies , that's to say those with no veris and new to the site .
However , we wouldn't waste our time with users who have been on the site for ages with no veris , or just cam veris . |

I usually steer away from those,or ones with one verification from over a year ago. Although if the profile catches my eye I may chat a little and see how I feel about it. Someone who has been here a year or 2 months,who just wants a wank,will have roughly the same modus operandi. |

And I like you just a little bit more.
How about verifications from cam? Doesn't mean they will meet. Or 9 verifications from the same person.. again, why? Verifications that are 12+ months old....
I don't do verifications. My choice. Maybe I "miss-out" on all the people that set so much store by them.. my loss. But are they a good indicator? To me a photo veri, proves gender, that's all I need to know. The messages I will have with a potential meet will prove the rest.

I would say we have fairly good judgement, but as we are having to make a judgement on a complete stranger, we like to have as much information as possible, and we personally find verifications invaluable. In fact the only times we have made mistakes is when we relax our rules about verifications. |

With the trust levels being as they are on this site
I would suggest anyone could say 'I don't want verification'
Could be true
Could be a big smelly fib
We will never know
Anyway I find a good verification is quite gratifying and I reach my latter years |

We look at verifications and would tend to ignore a long term member with non or only cam veries.
We don't mind if it just says a social, at least we know they will meet up. We have some displayed but wouldn't display hundreds of we did have them. A few shown gives a clear indication you're not a fake or just around to perv at pics. |

No"
Ok, thanks. I always thought that if you don't display them, the person who wrote them might feel like you're embarrassed of them  |

I make it clear to those i meet that they don't have to write one unless they feel the burning desire to do so and that i probably won't display it most of the time anyway. I wouldn't meet someone who's going to be a drama queen over veris |

Interesting topic, (i've chosen not to show verifications). But I do wander whether people not giving a chance to an older profile with no veris is part of the reason I have noticed some profiles close down to then start an identical one... |

Some might, but it's your profile and you run it how you want not how anyone else wants. |

It's not about 'advertising your sexual history'. If someone has some nice verifications saying how great company they were, good fun etc. then you've got a pretty good idea they're not a nutbag and a decent person and above all serious about meeting up. That's what they're there for... |

Used to chat for weeks before meeting so had our time wasted a lot easiest way to flush them out if your suspicious is to push for a social or meet and gauge their reaction |

No they aren't;
They simply say that you are the sex you say you are; that you look roughly like your picture( if you have one); and that you turned up:
The rest is simply subjective opinion.

Well I rarely meet. My verifications may appear new but they were written by two friends I have known a long while. They wrote the verifications very kindly quite recently although I never requested them to. Just a nice gesture. However because they were written and published recently doesn't mean I have had recent meets. I am fussy and right now. ..happy to chat until /unless I feel the time /person is right.
Either that or I am a psychopathic nutcase who you should meet!! I like to meet about 3 am in a dark car park behind Lidl!!!! I'll be wearing a pink fluffy dressing gown and slippers. I probably won't have showered or made any effort. In fact I rarely clean my teeth as I don't believe in being too clean! Also don't worry about condoms. I have already got every infection going anyway so I doubt you can give me anything I haven't got! The scabby bits do fall off eventueally though.....
Now... who wants to go first? ?? |

This was a problem for us until recently, we had a genuine reason as to why we had no verifications and we got alot of questioning and douting from some people.
It takes a long time for people to find the right people to meet, for us a connection needs to be formed and thats a rarity really, so were some are playing a game, alot just haven't found there match yet and i guess its up to you to work it out x |
