Photo Verification For All Onsite?

meet_the_fockers · 28 February 2017

Photo Verification.. gives the assurance to members that the person you are chatting with on site, is actually the person they claim to be, but you know this...saves you playing detective i guess. Less work for you, more work for admin.
It makes a mockery of the old saying.. if it looks to good to be true, then it probably is..
your face picture.. is a lot safer in our admins hands, than someone youve been chatting to for say a day.. and decide to just send it too, re a possible meet.

Photo Verification so reduces the fake so called single male profiles as a couple smetimes, HOWEVER, after many years and being involved with the launch of another site in 2006 the other pointer and discussions that was discussed about IN GREAT DETAILwas photo I. D every 6 months with dates on paper as there are also many many single males/females running joint profile but have separated broken up etc and you need plenty of supporter mods to help you manage as a site grows otherwise it gets out of hand to police as such Just another pointer/personal opinion.

I've added a poll to the start of this thread as I would really be interested to see the votes on this.
So please, if you agree or disagree - please vote. Thank you.

Did we not have a poll before ? is this not a referendum in the swinging world again sorry to be blunt

Yes that's an incredibly valuable point. I know of a few members here, (and so will the staff) who go from (example) single male to couple, very often as they get new playmates etc. Good point and thank you.

Exactly. This happens all too often. face pics sent; person(s) never to be seen again. Yet some choose not to do it through fear by association.

Yes we did, but things have changed since I popped up another discussion about possible age validation. So I made this thread, then about 5 mins ago added a poll to see what people say.
The last one did go for PV but we didn't act on it as there was not (at the time) a very strong and clear majority. It was within a whisker.

Age verification is straight forward a copy of the credit card statement maybe?

It depends totally on what the government decide is adequate I guess and if it goes ahead.
We will see am sure.

Good things come to those that wait, and patience is a virtue.
In order to get things right for everyone it needs careful thought and planning.
But let's hope not as long as 2 years! lol x

Absolutely! Although if it's a yay, there'll be no clauses or gimmicky tricks... but! There will need a lot of planning and preparation this time around and people will be given a deadline of, maybe, about a month or.. the red button is pressed and that's that.

Absolutely, could definitely lead the way.

Fetishswingers · 28 February 2017

Another point how do you as a swinger conduct your vetting as such when deciding to meet. We always do the phone numberask and have a chat on the phone if theres a niggle so we know there a female there part of a couple. For safty sometimes its been debated in the past for single females a mobile number can be a paper trail for assurance real etc and just mention to someone you can confide in or write it some where where it could be found in an emergency maybe?

With all the changes and direction as spoke about on fet things are taking a turn and only this week another fet club meet closing london venue after 20 years. Could this be due to censorship too ?

Without going too off topic, Yes it's highly likely that this is the issue. Because a number of clubs have shut down, including one in South Wales. So chances are that's exactly why this has happened.

Even though I haven't actually gotten around to doing it yet that sounds like a good idea to me.

Yes? well it's one way of proving to others, that you are who you say you are.
If the votes get high for yes, then we will act on it too.
