Photo Verification For All Onsite?

If you are using the most current version of HTTPS and use the recommended certificates and methods of encryption then the resulting traffic is very secure. Using the older methods which have been proven to be to be unencrypted very easily due to a known flaw in the protocol will expose the traffic to view...if someone really wants to view the traffic. It also has to do with the server side being up-to-date with all patches and that the base operating system is appropriately hardened to prevent unused ports and protocols from allowing access.

Thank you for taking the time to vote and share your thoughts. (and for mentioning you're doing one soon)
It's a serious decision and could have a huge impact on the site - but one we're willing to gamble if it's what people want.

I know that what I am about to say has its own thread but its all about having a usable profile really. We as a couple want our profile to be as good as it can be and if your really looking for meets your should be too or what's the point being here. When we are looking at profiles 2 things really put us off. First being no location (what's the point in us looking or contacting) and the second being pic verified ( how do we know you not some spotty 16yo) once again we don't bother. Sorry but we take it your not really looking if you can't or won't get the basics right

I think this sums it up. I genuinely feel wary and cautious when anyone on the site refuses to become photo verified.
Takes seconds, is swiftly deleted - so hardly as if we're going to get hacked and the world is over within two minutes of uploading a PV pic.

Hi all.
I have made the decision....
We are going to enforce this.
I don't know any ETA as of yet or the timescale in which this will need to be completed for people to continue use of the site.
So the finer details I am yet to work out and decide upon, but I have made the decision - we are 100% enforcing photo verification for the site.

I'd like to point out that some who voted no are extremely inactive on the site, some are already PV'd so I don't understand why they voted no and some we have had some doubts over anyway.
Of all who voted no, one account have a genuine concern over safety of the images, which I do kind of understand and we have discussed this and I am more than happy to meet them for coffee.

Additionally I am going to consider ways of offering an 'off-site' feature where people can send me PV's off site, such as using ****** etc to make it easier for people and add an element of extra safety.

So in short;
We are going to do this.
We will be the first ever swinging site to enforce fully photo verified system (other sites who offer PV allow pics of your body and use that as a PV lol )
We do not have the finer details as of yet. (I will work on them over the coming weeks)
There is no exact ETA to rollout as of yet.
We still have some things to decide and work on, such as best practices, safety and data management, plus how long to allow newbies to use the site before either PV or out.

Thank you ALL for your amazing show of support in this thread. It's outstanding.

Some of you who are here and are not currently PV'd I will be in touch with soon.
Best wishes
