"Where can we see an example...?"
On somebodies profile that has video as a category where it says photos. But no way of searching for them. Look at the profile of the couple who said they have video for friends only and you will see what to look for. But you can't view their vid clip cos it's friends only. |

That’s a very sweeping judgment to make, that just because someone likes camming they are in the business |

I personally feel the videos you have published on your joint and solo accounts purely enhance your appeal. Whilst not living close enough to you i do enjoy reading about your escapades and this addition just adds to the experience. Don't let negative comments stop you sharing your experiences. Big fan! |

Good points. But we have the cams on here already. We love amateur videos but use other sites for that, not judging at all but do share the concern that it means the site becomes less swinging and more wanking. |

Didn’t accuse any non cam girls of doing anything wrong, just bought up the fact that professional cam girls will use this site as a cheap way to build up a client base |

Fair enough, to me it came across as tho you were implying that those who cam on here, are doing it for business which is not necessarily the case. Apologies if I Mis interpreted your original statement |

Every one should be a paid member, this site costs money to run, and if you can't afford a £1.00 a week then how are you going to afford to meet anyone. |

I am a site supporter..
I also work in the online industry and know what running online sites costs .
And I believe it’s moderated by volunteers ?
So basically price of a server farm rent ..
This is a brilliant business model ,just wish I’d of thought of it ..

Yes, there’s always the risk of the site being Mis used. In fact I would say a large majority of people on here aren’t actually swingers in the true sense of the meaning x |

Worst decision fabs ever made in my opinion especially when it comes to attracting more single women to the site which is a demographic they struggle to attract anyway
I don’t know many single women that find it an appealing concept in fact I already know 8 that have already left because of it |

No one is forcing them to watch or upload them, there must have been other reasons as well. |

Not from talking to them away from fab they believe it’s going to kill of a site that’s dying anyway and I’ve personally not renewed my supporters badge because I don’t want access to the feature |

I don’t like the feature. I think it’s a mistake to introduce it.
It doesn’t prove anyone is who they say they are. There’s no way to stop people stealing it and uploading it elsewhere - probably along with your other photos.
I can’t yet see any benefits. Let’s see how many upload something after a night out and how many (most likely) men, who already spam people with horny messages, will be even more so because of watching these clips.
I think it makes it appear more of a porn site than anything else unfortunately. |

Yeah I don’t mind the tasteful ones but I definitely wouldnt meet a single lady having seen her being fucked bare back that’s just us though. A bit of self play is cool to see and teasing - which we would do. But much like the well known saying “each to their own”
And before anyone mentions - verifications are okay, maybe just not too many sexual ones? |

Simple as always: if you've uploaded something online - you no longer have control over it whether it's a picture or a video. |

Also - it seems to be the majority chosen - who get the most “fab likes” are chosen for the videos trial... bit of a major advertisement on fabs behalf...
so once I found out about the videos being available, I found myself just clicking on the hot pic profiles and seeing who has a video. I see it as one way of major wank bank material which could be dangerous for the site. Like the lady also said, people can steal videos and put them up. By fab choosing women and couples to be made for trial videos - it says to me that women are bait. The majority of couples pictures ARE mostly of the women, much like the videos will be.
I find it distasteful of fab to factor out men also. Much like people on here like to rant about BBC, no Asians, Whites only etc.. it’s ignorant, contradictive, and puts people in the shadows.... |

Same old negative people posting how they don't like this and don't like that, and of course they know better; so, why don't they set up a site?
Like anything on here, you don't have to use the features you don't like or want - so if you don't like videos, don't watch them!
Jeez they are 20 second clips, which people can use to add a bit of personality to their profiles; not to mention some like taking, and sharing photos/videos; just like some enjoy being spanked, cuckolded, crossdressing, or any other fetish/kink, so those that are being negative are you not indirectly kink shaming those that enjoy it? Unless, of course, being judgemental, oppressive and miserable is your kink/fetish ;- |

For fear of being accused of negativity you do come across quite passive aggressive towards some expressing concerns about an issue. |

I don’t like them so I am entitled to my opinion along with anyone else. Just because you can do something it doesn’t necessarily mean you should and I feel this with regard to videos. I would visit a porn site if that’s what I wanted to see.
As for ‘if you don’t like it don’t watch it’ - I won’t be watching because they’re not of interest to me. It doesn’t stop me having an opinion though. The purpose of a trial is for this to happen I think |

Absolutely well said.
The point made about cam girls using this site is no different to the 'escorts' parading as swingers and charging single guys in a hotel room and clearly making a profit. If you suspect cam girls are drumming up business report to admin, it's no different. |

Haven’t looked at many but I’ve seen a couple that are quirky and sum up the personality of the person. They made me laugh. Would love to see more of those ‘mini-portrait’ type vids but realise this may be a forlorn hope and that bums pogoing up and down between thighs are probably going to be the majority. I can look elsewhere for more satisfying versions of that. |

Because this is a trial and I would like to have my say that is why I have commented. We have differing opinions and that’s absolutely fine. I don’t generally post on things that aren’t of interest to me but this is of interest to me.
I don’t like the video function and I have been given the option to upload them. That makes me part of this trial and gives me a voice.
My voice is saying no to videos and until a decision is made one way or the other I shall continue to voice my opinion. |

Originally I didn't think videos was a good idea but having seen a few I can see how they could help (in addition to pictures and the rest of the profile) decide whether I'd want to meet someone or not.
I'd like to see the video feature staying. |

If you mean by only available to site supporters, perhaps you should take a look at what you get from similar sites. A lot less for free. Fab offer great value for £5 silver or gold membership. True definition of extortion is obtaining money by threats or force, you saying that fab are doing this?!  |

The literal definition of it sure shame people are so literal instead of reading between the lines, at the very least theres positive discrimination involved whether you choose to see it or not
But I can see you’ll disagree with me no matter what so we’ll leave it there |

Then maybe use a different word to describe what you are trying to say and people won't challenge the word
There is no discrimination, female/ couples and males have video's on their profiles |

Have to completely agree with you. Your reasoning is spot on. They are trialing it to see what the responses are, good or bad, positive or negative. The one trialing it need this to ascertain the effects it may have on those using the site.
I'm with you on this as I do feel it's becoming more like a faceb**k sex site now. |

"Same old negative people posting how they don't like this and don't like that, and of course they know better; so, why don't they set up a site?
Like anything on here, you don't have to use the features you don't like or want - so if you don't like videos, don't watch them!
Jeez they are 20 second clips, which people can use to add a bit of personality to their profiles; not to mention some like taking, and sharing photos/videos; just like some enjoy being spanked, cuckolded, crossdressing, or any other fetish/kink, so those that are being negative are you not indirectly kink shaming those that enjoy it? Unless, of course, being judgemental, oppressive and miserable is your kink/fetish ;- "
Can I just say your videos are very tasteful! They’re about you both as a couple. And also, is that your OH’s spunk going over you?? That’s ALOT! But the video is great |

It's currently being tested by people who volunteered on the threads that admin posted earlier in the week. They aren't currently looking for more volunteers as they are working on getting it to run smoothly. It's only available to site supporters and may or may not be a permanent feature. |

"How can I upload a video on my profile?? 
Not sure if males can. I've only seen ladies and cpls talk about it :-/"
There are a few male profiles with this feature who as you said must have volunteered to be part of the trial |

"We are on here to meet and play, videos hold no interest for us, it won’t be long until the cam girls etc see this site as even more of a cheap way of building there client base "
Totally agree. Just swapping photos and now videos does nothing for me. I want to meet! |

You ain't got to explain yourself. You do meet ha
"We are on here to meet and play, videos hold no interest for us, it won’t be long until the cam girls etc see this site as even more of a cheap way of building there client base
That’s a very sweeping judgment to make, that just because someone likes camming they are in the business
Hahah..we're far from in the business, its just fun to post vids
I know, I am one of those people who likes to cam and post both pictures and videos and I do it for fun and because it turns me on, nothing more "

I'm here to meet, this new feature won't change that. And maybe the feature will attract a slightly different clientele with different agendas.
But surely that's the beauty of a community like fab, we all have different criteria in terms of what we're looking for. If it's not for you, cool. If you choose to leave because of it, cool.
But I'm sure we'd all agree that we'd rather good folk stay, despite your misgivings. Maybe the prediction that this feature will ruin the site does eventually come true. But what's the harm in hanging around long enough to find out?
Anyway, one love x |

Videos won't increase my interest to meet anyone. It may decrease it as what may happen is they become busier with messages of others that want to meet them, thus in my experience become harder to arrange a meet.
My focus won't change as I'll continue to search amongst those less popular. |

The only thing that doesn't sit right with me is that I have seen people giving verifications because of videos.
A lot of the videos do not actually show a face, nor is there any proof to say the person in that video is the owner of the account.
Other than that I don't mind them. They're not really for me but I'm sure lots of other people will enjoy them. |

Can they really give a verification from just looking at their video? |

People have been saying they would love to put video's on here,for as long as I can remember,its now happening,any changes there will be positive and negative comments,as it's a new option,in a few weeks it will settle down
I am happy with it personally and two video's are enough to introduce myself and tease,I've also peeked at others well it would be rude not to

I didn't know how I felt about the option of videos initially and then I was pleased. Some will enjoy this and some won't but definitely think fab have acted on the feedback they have had and rolled it out in a sensible way

"I would report any verifications that were given for seeing a video "
How can it be proved that they did by looking at their video and not by normal video link.
Always that video verification was a bit of a farce as could be easily abused by both parties anyway.
Now someone can verify someone this way and it be hard to prove otherwise unless one of them reported it.
Just another easy way to abuse the Veri system. |

"Worst decision fabs ever made in my opinion especially when it comes to attracting more single women to the site which is a demographic they struggle to attract anyway
I don’t know many single women that find it an appealing concept in fact I already know 8 that have already left because of it "
Some good points .However ,also consider from perspective of other members not just single fem .
Videos are far better than pictures as far as actually seeing / hearing someone goes . Which is important these days .
It allows people to get an idea on who is genuine and who is not .Though people could post fake videos of course given lots post fake pictures on here too.
It allows people to share a bit more with friends too before a meet .The bids don't have to be seen by everyone unless you chose it from what I know ?
Overall it's a swinging not dating site so what has everyone got to hide ? I'm in favour of the new feature and look forward to it going live for everyone .
Course everyone's entitled to their own opinion too |

"I don’t like the feature. I think it’s a mistake to introduce it.
It doesn’t prove anyone is who they say they are. There’s no way to stop people stealing it and uploading it elsewhere - probably along with your other photos.
I can’t yet see any benefits. Let’s see how many upload something after a night out and how many (most likely) men, who already spam people with horny messages, will be even more so because of watching these clips.
I think it makes it appear more of a porn site than anything else unfortunately. "
It's an accepted fact that once you upload anything on the net you can't really control it as much as you would like to . So I guess most people who do it will be aware of it .
Also it's just a bit of fun for everyone which you don't have to use if you don't want to .Although I suspect eventually most will as it's a great thing to have on a swinging site and will help people know a bit about eachother maybe .
It should also get rid of any fakes ( men pretending to be women or couples) which is very very irritating ! and also the ones using fab as a dating site like a cheap POF/ those who only want evenings out socials and nothing else ..as that in my opinion is not what the site is about ? everyone has to be a little more daring with videos maybe ?
Who knows really ! It's all on trial now so we will see what happens .

People keep saying it will get rid of fakes. How? Videos are not mandatory, the profiles that have them will be in the minority, and the fakes just won't upload them. Or they'll steal them from someone else and pass them off as their own. It won't make any difference to the number of fake profiles. |

Interesting point ..although I would say it will help or could help stop fakes .I am though assuming there will be a way of recording/ identifying a video upload onto the site . Which would then using an algorithm be able to recognise) detect automatically electronically if that video was used again elsewhere on the site by someone else ? That would probably be possible to do in this day and age wouldn't it ?
That way each video upload would be unique to the OP and no one else .
It might be a good idea to remind everyone then that stealing videos and uploading them as your own is a criminal offence ..that might ensure at least people think before they try and do it ? |

They don't currently do it with pictures. Mine have been used by several different fake profiles on here, so I'm guessing they don't have the ability to do it with videos either. Plus they can be taken from other sites than fab.

Right ..well given that I would say it would probably need to be introduced if it's not already available .
I know a lot use Kik and send vid etc or go live so it's an extension of that really.
Though I guess site owners could/ would put in disclaimer saying they take no responsibility for any uploads etc ..
Looks like it's the future though so I guess everyone can proceed with caution and join in if not as they feel .

Easiest way to spot people who are awful at intercourse.
Seen some that make me want to bleach my eyes, and others that make me feel sad for the female getting humped as if she was fully clothed and still at college.

I really do not agree with it and believe these verifications should be deleted but yeah. I've seen two Veris now that have verified as webcam but have just put as description 'love the video, upload more' etc |

Unless, of course, being judgemental, oppressive and miserable is your kink/fetish ;-
I don’t like them so I am entitled to my opinion along with anyone else. Just because you can do something it doesn’t necessarily mean you should and I feel this with regard to videos. I would visit a porn site if that’s what I wanted to see.
As for ‘if you don’t like it don’t watch it’ - I won’t be watching because they’re not of interest to me. It doesn’t stop me having an opinion though. The purpose of a trial is for this to happen I think
For something that is 'not of interest' to you, why waste so much time posting on threads about it? Waterpsorts (for instance) is of no interest to me/us, but I/we don't go on the threads about it to tell everyone we don't like it; but as you say, your entitled to an opinion
Because this is a trial and I would like to have my say that is why I have commented. We have differing opinions and that’s absolutely fine. I don’t generally post on things that aren’t of interest to me but this is of interest to me.
I don’t like the video function and I have been given the option to upload them. That makes me part of this trial and gives me a voice.
My voice is saying no to videos and until a decision is made one way or the other I shall continue to voice my opinion. "
I agree with you. I think it will just attract more men, same as porn sites. |

We have put a couple up and might do some more. I think the 20 second limit is a good thing - the best of the best bits only. I'm curious to see what people make of this new feature.
I don't see a problem - the way someone moves and sounds and interacts is not something that you can express through still images. Plus I get to have a play about with the software on my mac and be creative which is fun.
The comments about cam girls is a misapprehension - they don't hang out in the chatrooms so why upload 20 second vids??
Anyways, I think its fun, Some of us like to be exhibitionist and this is a fun way to share with others - and some like me love to show off our partners and know folks are adoring them as we do - vids add a lot of possibilities for that.

"Just another way to encourage people to become site supporters .
They obviously aren’t getting enough revenue..Every one should be a paid member, this site costs money to run, and if you can't afford a £1.00 a week then how are you going to afford to meet anyone.
I am a site supporter..
I also work in the online industry and know what running online sites costs .
And I believe it’s moderated by volunteers ?
So basically price of a server farm rent ..
This is a brilliant business model ,just wish I’d of thought of it ..

Well there is nothing stopping you from starting a swingers site, criticising is easy, even I managed it...... |

Wouldn’t stress over it , nothing that impressive ie a few seconds of fake moaning & bad filming ( just my opinion) |
