Single men are by far the largest gender on here therefore it stands to reason tgat the contribute a large amount in the site revenue. The chances of the site operators upsetting them is very small. So I would suggest the idea woukd fall on very deaf ears. Remember this is a business not a social service. |

Sad but true... Although might get more genuine people on who might be prepared to pay more given the improved quality of the clientele! |

What's to stop someone sending a negative veri because they threw their toys out of the pram when you turned them down (assuming they're verified themselves of course)? |

Absolutely nothing is the only answer. Maybe the only fair way of moving forward would be to scrap the whole verification system and let people make up there own mind. Although a tick or cross system with out any comment might work. And if you combining that with the ability to block an entire gender from even viewing your profile would be a bonus. There fore you will only be viewed and or contacted by the profiles you may be interested in. Once again this isn't likely to happen which is a shame because you could target your search far more accurately. |

The whole point of having a verification system is so people can see if someone is genuine and actually meets. It is a very useful tool (among others of course). If I see a profile with green tick but none shown and no summary I do treat that with suspicion tho. Could just be one cam verification etc.
I also sometimes look at who has verified them and see if they are also genuine etc....,
I think getting rid of the system would be well counter productive. |

It's not about being counter productive. The point was that no one is going to show a negative verification so what's the point in showing any. We once had a meet where the lady punched me in the head. I can promise you that ifwe had verified them as being real but also violent bat crap crazies they would not have published it! |

Fab should just get rid of them then everyone would be on a level playing field and have to use their gut instinct and common sense. Many people have fake veris anyway. Some people are obsessed with them, too many, not enough, not got one for ages, don't show them or the summary, must be fake blah blah although I know getting rid of them would piss on some people's parade as they seem to collect them like they're some badge of honour or something! I don't bother with them, no one can send me them any as my age filters are 98-99. I really don't care what others may think. People that want to meet me will. |

Just an idea but what if the extended the site supporter scheme to allow site supporters to place a verification on a profile which is automatically published. |

Exactly!! My thoughts. It can be open to abuse |
