" …"Sound fella. Turned up on time..." is sufficient…. …Some.of us are having hardly any meets as it is… " The inability to see the correlation between these two things is quite profound. | |||

"You might want to know what someone's bell end is like, so you look on "Tipadvisor"! 🤣" Let's face it, much like Tripadvior, the veris system here is what make Fab one of the most reliable platforms. Veris are excellent marketing material. | |||

"Lots of verifications mean that you don't do repeats, I wonder why? Afraid of any kind of relationship that could last beyond the first fuck?" You can repeat verify. You can also repeat meet and not verify as you've already did that once before. Think you've made some assumptions there | |||

"The minute you write a verification for someone its theirs to do withnas they see fit. Ypu have agreed to write it knowing full well it can be displayed. So no I don't think you are doing anything wrong OP. Its an individual's decision whether you display or not." I'm with you you write it it down, down to them if that post it or not. | |||

"Lots of verifications mean that you don't do repeats, I wonder why? Afraid of any kind of relationship that could last beyond the first fuck?" I don’t know who this is aimed at… and what are these bizarre and flawed assumptions based on?! Firstly - exactly how many is “lots” of verifications… as different people will have their own views on this. I can only speak from my own perspective - I have quite a bevy of regulars, some on FabGuys, most not. My verifications can show some of that, so I have repeats, but a lot of the time you don’t bother to keep repeating verifications for fuckbuds and good friends. If anyone doesn’t understand that FabGuys verifications only show a fractional part of anyone’s sex, they need to wise up. As for the dumb statement: “afraid of any kind of relationship”… I am in an open LTR. 🙄 Why make sweeping asinine statements about other people..? You (clearly) don’t have any idea how some other people lead their lives quite differently to you. I don’t anything about you and your sex life so wouldn’t presume to judge you nor would I be interested to do so. People are weird. | |||

"I wanted to get an initial verification so people could see I'm genuine. Haven't displayed any of my 3 and since then haven't verified anyone or asked for veris. Don't need people to see o I met or what we did. I get plenty of interest without them being public." “I wanted to get an initial verification so people could see I'm genuine.” Exactly - that’s the point. “Haven't displayed any of my 3 and since then haven't verified anyone or asked for veris. Don't need people to see o I met or what we did.” That’s your prerogative. “I get plenty of interest without them being public.” And that’s because you’ve posted a good range of pictures and taken the time to introduce yourself and your interests in your profile. | |||

" 👏 👏 👏 people are weird and simply dont have a clue that others run their sex life in a way taht works for them. Obvs the way is working as there are lots of veris. Maybe it's a jealousy thing. Doesn't matter. I have a lot of veris. If I gave or got a veri after every repeat meet i'd have 1000% more veris and the headcount would reflect that too. I dont veri repeats. Not much point unless the repeat was something new and worth mentioning. I dont display older veris simply because they are not what is happening today. Like you, I'm in a relationship for 20+ years. I'm here for sex, my relationship life goals are just fine. Ive left instruction that when I die i want them all printed for the congregation to read at my funeral, or any time 😆 That'll lighten the mood and no doubt a few will say "where did he have time to do all this?" and "oh I fucked that guy as well, small world eh". | |||

"…I try to leave rather generic verifications, "turned up as promised", "easy to arrange" sort of things, and quite happy for it to be displayed. I'll display similar verifications but tend not to display more explicit ones as I believe it can lead to setting peoples expectations too high… " Immediately above your post G3 has posted: “i like the perfunctory verifications, where the meet hasn't gone to expectations but the parties are polite enough to verify each other - so British” And this is the problem with the utterly perfunctory “Turned up on time”, “Can verify he’s genuine” “Don’t mess him about” etc etc etc. It tells other users absolutely nothing! So why bother displaying it..? If I see a handful of verifications like that my immediate reaction is: what’s wrong with him?! What was he like?! What did you get up?! Was it good sex?! It’s not beyond the wherewithal of man to write a few simple words to answer that without poring over the soiled sheets if you are shy and modest types. | |||

"Verification can give an insight into the person you are looking at. They may say “safe sex” in their profile only to have verifications which clearly show they go bare. Someone with a dozen verifications may have one (or more) from people with another dozen who in turn have another dozen (or even more) etc etc. You can form your opinion. This is NOT a criticism of anyone with a lot of verifications or of those who choose to play bare. It is a comment on the thread. " Exactly. Inconcinnity between what it says in the profile and what others say. A relatively new profile displaying a verification from another new profile that’s strangely hidden or seems to have blocked everyone else. A handful of people who have only verified each other from donkeys years ago. The more data published the easier it is to navigate. “A smooth sea never made a skilled sailor.” | |||

"Its a shop window. Business uses good customer feedback in their marketing all the time. It might bring in new custom. Veris are no different as far as im concerned." Absolutely. But then to use the same analogy… You have a current, active business. You’re seeking to improve turn-over, secure new trading partners and expand your business (Fnarr Fnarr…) Your use of verifications fits in with your business plan. I think I see mine as a shop window of all the bespoke services available to the discerning customer. But it’s very unclear to me how others understand their own marketing and some clearly don’t. | |||

""Turned up on time" ain't a verification is it. Its a condemnation. Ive seen some that are pages long and gushing like some bloody school essay, no need for that, but its good business to say a bit about what the business was. " “Condemnation” is a bit harsh! But it smacks of having to find something to say. And it’s redundant verbiage. You presume people turned up when agreed, otherwise you didn’t meet them and there’s no verification. You presume people are a ‘genuine guy’ because otherwise you wouldn’t want to verify them. You presume people shouldn’t be messed about, because if you met someone you thought should, you wouldn’t be verifying them! All redundant. “Kept cancelling, turned up really fucking late, was nothing like what he claimed, he wasted my time utterly and I hope people waste his.” Well.. you wouldn’t write that because you wouldn’t want to give them a verification at all. They’d just take the green tick and wouldn’t publish your words. “Turned up on time, really genuine, don’t muck him about.” You could write that about your grandad. Or the milkman. | |||

"If they are not displayed does it still tell someone how many from actual meets as opposed to webcam sessions?" Only if they have chosen to display the verification summary. That tells you the number of different verifiers, the number of meets and the proportion of meets in person and webcams. If someone just has a green tick ✅ and neither displays their summary or some published verifications, I’m immediately wary. They may be talking about meeting but the reality is sometimes they had one webcam session 15 years ago and it’s all fantasy. | |||

"I don’t display my verifications. I did for a while and we both ended up getting unwanted attention from people we both didn’t want to meet. They persisted in it even after we told them no. And yes I know I could just block them " I’m not sure that’s anything to do with verifications or their publication per se. We all get persistent pests who keep sending leering messages until they are blocked. I sometimes compare notes with fuckbuds about weirdoes and they’ll say “oh he sent me that too!” People will just send random shit at lists of people: you could be anyone. | |||
