i mean, if you made a comment or had banter/cheeky humor that showed your personality and they didn't enjoy it, doesn't that mean that you're just not that compatible. it's probably best to try and be humorous over a call/cam so tone can't be misunderstood. |

i face a similar issue, my jokes/humour don't really land well through text so i only really show that side of myself when talking to people on cam or after establishing a deeper connection. |

I guess it’s only a waste of time when it stop being fun x I’ve probably offended a fair few but I’m a forum newbie but I join in on threads post random stuff sometimes serious sometimes funny ( well I think it is ) x I still get the off meet and chat to plenty x so I’d hang around a bit longer if I was you x |

For me, you just have to keep trying but stay true to what you want, it will happen eventually but if you feel it wont, then stay and keep going or leave.
I am still in the camp of trying, because you just never know |

I agree with what others have said, the context of a message can change completely on the other end by someone reading it.
Personally we look out for red flags, I have to keep wifey safe and respected, anything that makes me feel this won’t happen, it’s a block |

You can always let your personality shine buuut people aren't necessarily compatible with it. Or you them.
Banter as said above is... yeah. Might not be.
Fab is essentially free, not obligatory for existence right? If something made me unhappy more than happy, I'd leave. Go find things that bring me joy. I've never understood staying where unhappy. 🤷🏽♀️ |

We find that the banter / jokes always tend to be of a sexual nature.
I can't speak for others, but lots of sexual innuendos early into a chat just doesn't do it for us.
My advice is keep a chat vanilla initially, just as if you're talking to someone on a regular night out.
Men aren't wasting their time on here, lots of men do just fine.

I'd say for most men Fab is going to be a waste of time. Women and couples can be very picky here, choose people they believe suit best what they are looking for. They do that by looking at profiles, seeing if there is anything that may interest them in that person. Most men completely ignore the need for a good, informative profile, and send one line messages to a large selection of female and couples profiles without bothering with compatibility. Or send very explicit first message. Plus most men don't seem to bother to read profiles.

"If your “banter” is constantly getting you blocked then I would suggest it isn’t banter."
👍🏻
Banter? Cheeky humour?
Or possibly crude and crossing the line maybe a little bit too early?
Fab can be a great resource for men if they engage properly, I’ve been on and off here for about 12 years or so and have found my greatest success at getting meets is mostly via non-sexual conversations with the ladies I’ve engaged with.
Just talk to them normally.
It’s not rocket science. And it works! |

Do you think the people you have met so far have been a waste of time?
Do you think everyone should appreciate and like your personality?
If the answer is yes then you probably are wasting your time.
If its no then a thread like this probably doesn't represent you well. |

I can meet, be that on here or in clubs and what have you.
I think you have to remember that like too, people are as selective as they want to be. You may not be checking the _oxes these people are looking for, and that’s ok.
Is it harder for single men? Absolutely. But only because there are more. |

You have a good profile, good pic and 6 positive veris . You're doing well. Perhaps, experiment with your usual style of banter, and chat on the forums, and see what the response is, positive or negative. I rarely send requests or messages to women, and rely on forum interactions to attract attention. It works. |

You have to understand that what you might see as banter etc may not be there idea of funny , i have been chatting to a lady for literally months and I wont lie some of things she comes out with I just dont get !! Thankfully she isent a constant texter , and she is a nice lady but I could understand why people would ghost her ( as they often do ) because without being crass she can come out with some pretty weird stuff
What you see as funny may be what they do !?

Banter can be hard to interpret online if you have never spoken to someone before, something that would be acceptable from a close friend or someone you are familiar with might not sit well coming from a stranger.
We have long boring profile, lots of men don’t read it and message something that clearly they wouldn’t say had they read it. This is a filter in its self because if the person messaging can’t be bothered to read what we have put on our profile then we certainly won’t be interested in speaking to them. |

I think for me, there’s cheeky/ banter and it’s all going well, and then all of a sudden there is a massive weird overstep that goes way beyond cheeky and any reply to that gets a whole lot of attitude back. |

That hasn't really been my experience. I've got quite a dry, teasing sense of humour and, for the most part, it goes down well. Occasionally something doesn’t land, but that's fine
Everyone has a different sense of humour and a different idea of what they want from an interaction.
I tend to ease into the silliness and teasing rather than going straight in at full force, and you can usually get a feel pretty quickly for whether someone enjoys that kind of banter. I'd rather show some personality and occasionally get it wrong than play everything so safe that the conversation becomes bland. |

Do you mean commenting in the forum gets you ghosted, or is it your “risky banter” in direct messaging?
Fab as a platform in general, is a lottery as a single guy, although the things which help are;
Being black. Many women are looking for black guys.
Being bisexual. You could definitely get your cock sucked every day of the week through Fab, if you didn’t mind a bloke sucking you off.
Location. Without a doubt, location is the biggy. I’m fishing in an empty pond compared to those guys living in and around the cities/denser populated areas.
Get yourself back to V2V club. I found it nice enough, although quiet for numbers the night I went. 😎👍 |

Its the ones with personality and banter who are genuine who get through for us and more likely to be the top of our list when we want a meet.
As long as its still respectful its better than a short Hi wanna fuck message |

What type of message or banter are you sending? 🤔
I think it’s best to play it safe with the first couple of messages and then lightly introduce a bit of humour. Personally, I don’t like it when messages are too ‘nice’ and prefer a bit of down to earth humour (I like confidence that’s bordering on cocky) but I know it’s not for everyone. |

The thing is mate, is that this site is full of men. And many spam women with messages. Women join without a photo and within ten minutes have 200 messages. Not one of those messages is from a man who cares about what he's doing.
It can't be that much of a leap to think that women are coloured by this behaviour, and start filtering their options. And why not? They have the choice, and, they're getting spammed. They need a mechanism.
But it means for a nice chap like yourself, there's going to be one thing someone sees that they saw in 20 profiles that they didn't like, and you're getting judged. It's not personal.
This isn't the real world. In the real world you're probably a head-turner. Fab turns an 8 man into a 5, and a 5 woman into an 8, such is the way of things.

To be fair I'm really quite sarcastic so my humour only really shows in person because messages can be misconstrued.
I've had encounters at clubs where women have said I've laughed their knickers off....
But in text I've also been banned from the forums more times than Gary Glitter from the school fair.

Been here only 2 weeks, and already had a meet? You’re way above the average in here mate, and fair play to you! I’m sure the OP, as well as myself, would love to hear what you did different to all us mere mortals?
I would say altering your profile text to “at least 50 men to every woman in here” would be more accurate….😎👍

Always remember; Fab isn’t ‘all there is’. There are far better platforms out there, which have more ladies on them. The one redeeming factor Fab has in its favour is; it is THE ONLY contact site single guys can use completely free of charge, all the time.
Take an irreverent look at Fab, don’t take it too seriously, and dip in and out when you need a break from all the sex you get elsewhere 😎👌 |

If you feel like you are wasting your time with someone then, why would it bother you, walk away knowing that it is probably a good sign that she didn't fit what you were looking for. Beautiful woman are everywhere, a beautiful woman with confidence and intelligence which fits you is rarity and perhaps even more so if you simply use fab and not go out into the world.

It's not the type of peeps one would want to be associated with, so if they're blocking U, they're doing U a favour is how I see it. Plenty lovely peeps online who will chat to you openly about sex and not crochet, cups of tea, shopping, etc. |

"Never give up is the key
But you did 🤔🤣
Lol dont think that was for me
No that wasn’t for you, it was for someone who said they decided to stop messaging women but in the next breath said don’t give up 🤣"
Fair one |

It depends on your attitude and expectations. I am a fairly positive person in many areas of my life and I've learned not to take this place seriously and have no expectations. Its an avenue to explore the possibility. The worst thing you can do here is moan about any lack of success. |

"After a period of time on this platform. Have found that the slightest comment and youre instantly ghosted, so cant risk banter or cheeky humour.
This meaning you cant let your personality shine."
Depends what you saying and where. I have never had a problem with ghosting on here. |

"Several verifications in just a few months. Some guys are on here a year and can’t get a meet of any kind.
If you’re saying unwarranted filth and passing it off as ‘banter’ then yeh they should walk away.
If it’s very light stuff and they just lost interest then so be it, you seem to be doing alright without them
Been here only 2 weeks, and already had a meet? You’re way above the average in here mate, and fair play to you! I’m sure the OP, as well as myself, would love to hear what you did different to all us mere mortals?
I would say altering your profile text to “at least 50 men to every woman in here” would be more accurate….😎👍
"
I have been here in the past, met a load of people, one of them verified me when I returned.
I don’t think you need any help from me. Stacks of meets and verifications on your page |

"Reply + quote on the message you want to reply to and then type outside of the bit in square brackets.
Your bio and certain pictures bear the hallmarks of AI. It would put me off replying.
Okay, thank you, not AI but thanks for letting me know"
I started reading the thread but it then become a race to bottom to see if you figured out reply and quote. Now just solve the banter and you will be doing well. |

In my many years on and off fab I’ve come to realise it’s all about timing. You just need all the stars to align and to catch the right person, at the right time, with the right message.
But your right, it is a proper graft on here a lot of the time
