lost verifications
Jump to: Newest in thread
just wondering why when someone leaves the site does your verification have to go aswell, why can't it just say from anonymous or user left site, this happens on other sites. at least ppl then know you are still genuine even if you only have the odd one or two veris in the first place and then have none if they have left the site as in some cases |

This is a long running thing with admin and has been asked several times, admin say that even though the verification has been given to you it is still the property of the person that left it, so when there profile is deleted all veris they have given have to go to

If thats the case, shouldn't inter messages and forums posts go too?
because along that argument.. thats their "property" too. |

This is the point members have been putting forwards |

We understand the frustration here.
But we can't not remove verifications that deleted users have left. Those users no longer want to be on the site; if they were asked they would not want verifications to remain!
We're open to allowing users to (optionally) show stats on verifications they have received. This would include the count of verifications from users no longer on the site (but not the text). e.g. on the profile it may say something like SJ_MARK have 3 meet verifications, 2 webcam verifications.
Feedback welcome.

I like the verification stats idea, it would have to be on a member has the option to show the stats or not, as some members don't like others to know who or how often they meet people.
Another idea I have seen is a star system where when someone leaves a text verification they leave a star rating(1 poor, 5 Fantastic) this is never shown to anybody but is used to give an average star rating. The rating is usualy only given after say 3 or 5 verifications.
To get around the bogus ratings, i.e if you fall out with someone they don't just give you a bad rating the top and bottom scores(or just one of each if their are more than one of that score) are discounted and then averaged out to give you an overal score. |

I think there should be some kind of verification edit, to say the user left but one was given.
so you could have something like
User Left Site, Couple (MF) on 5 January 2012 by Meeting in person:
Details removed as user left site. |

We could potentially do something along those lines.
We'll look into this and post further.

It would "look better" for those that do put faith in validations as many are "dubious" of validations that aren't shown.
Put it this way.. if you dont play often but have met people, others could have left and you just have the "green tick", with no actual validations to show.
But thanks for the current feedback

Having your green tick should be enough...
Having blank verification from someone who has since left site is no better that having verifications hidden...
A verification is just that, being verified that you are indeed female, male or couple.

Having displayed that you have so many meets in person means nothing...
I have seen profiles where every verification has been from a social event!!
So such an such has 25 meeting in person verifications....shame they all from the one night they decided to leave the comfort of their computer screen!!

Would be good to have something that informs people looking at your profile that verifiers have left the site and what kind of meet it was. Maybe people are making assumptions when they see blank verifications. I know my profile got alot more interest when i had verifications showing.
Since my verifiers have left site and all i have is my green tick its seems like being back to square one.

Don't like the idea of a tally chart of how many meets I have had...that's my business and no one elses! Also you're assuming people that have left the site want their veri's retracting when I know a few guys that have left and would have happily left the veri's there - in fact they didn't know the verification left with them. Maybe as they delete the profile offer them the choice instead of assuming that's what they want? x |

This is still an annoyance to many of us.
I don't see why a verification can't remain when someone leaves, just as a (user no longer on site).
If this is OK for Forums, why not for verifications?
This issue is particularly annoying for people like me who are selective about who we meet and don't collect large numbers of verifications. And for males a good reputation is very hard to establish in the first place.
I've lost far more verifications than I've gained in the last few years  |
