Totally. They will collect pics, agree to everything for a meet but as soon as you ask for address, they will either ghost you or block you. I guess all they need is a chat bot for exotic/intimate chats.

isually send a friend request for pics in private then bugger off. Waste of time most of them. Result is I don't do friends requests until we've met

The site now is nothing but timewasters and fantasists.. was amazing few years back but now i hardly meet on here. You can put effort into a message to either get responses like " kool " " anytime " ect or even just ghosted. Most on here are just jacking off to chat or pictures..

When they refuse a face pic for a meet I remind them I, along with most normal vigilant people have a camera on my door.

Usually sorts out the men from the boys.

Another form of time wasting is all the versatile that are effectively BOTTOMS only.

If they have no pics on their profile or their pics are for friends only, or they have no verifications - I just ignore them. It never used to be like this, but that's how it is now.

“Woe! Woe..! And THRICE woe..!”

“The site’s such a pale shadow of itself!”

“Everyone is a timewaster and a fantasist these days…”

“They just want to collect my pictures!” [What do you think these people do with your pictures… make collages?!]

“Everyone on the site is a bottom!”

Gentlemen, this is just a circle-jerk threnody of WOE…!!!

Do better. Try harder. Reset filters. Read verifications more carefully. Be more astute. Don’t entertain vague, unclear proposals. Be assertive and demand pictures and data before committing your interest. Stop blaming the site and re-evaluate where you might be making mistakes in your processes and filtering.

Use judgement - i.e. verifications, meet evidence and pics. People communicating clearly is also a help. Beyond this be circumspect, though everyone has to start somewhere and requesting pics is reasonable. It’s also reasonable to refuse if the request comes from a blank profile and somebody who looks/sounds flaky.

This isn't a direct criticism of you, you have every right to do as you please but my question is how does a new user of the site get meetings and verifications if you won't entertain a conversation with them? We all have to start somewhere and for some it's a very first and daunting step in understanding they have gay tendencies.

I've met one guy off this site and blocked probably in excess of 50 now, on 'the other site' probably blocked hundreds. The usual is the five minute wait between messages, the not replying to messages in a conversation they initiated and just downright fantasists and silly little boys. A recent cracker was a thoroughly bizarre message exchange about a guy's bathing habits (three hours a day in a bath, anyone?!) whereas he was allegedly wanting to blow me. Bonkers.

Many wasters

I will not friend anyone I haven’t met as most are photo collectors and keyboard wankers

You can tell quite quickly by the way the conversation goes who’s genuine and up for fun

If I’m unsure I just block them especially when they ask if I have more photos and videos

Also newbie’s without photos or verifications are avoided

In addition to being asked for cock pics (which I never send) I'm often asked "Where are you?" If I'm bored I reply with the name of a tiny hamlet on a sparsely populated island. Lo and behold suddenly they're there too so I string them along asking if they know so and so etc. Eventually they block me.
