do you think the site should have a verification system

How would a "one vote one person" work confused:
Single person = 1 vote.
Couple :- one person one vote OR one vote per couple :?: ( home page remember)

PS :- Well pointed out Ian in the post above

My suggestion would be to pick your playing partners better.
Choosing an advert and arranging a meet without a cam confirmation, phone confirmation or a social meet first would probably end in a no show.
Accept that it is you that is letting yourself down and stop blaming the site as it doesn't have a verification system.
KENTY, you are right. This country does blame everything else bar themselves. Oh hang on.......you are in favour of the verification system bolt

If we have a verification system and it's optional I won't be using it either to show verification or to give it. Who I have sex with is my own business.
If people are not interested in me because I don't have feedback thats absolutely fine. If I have sex with someone it's likely to be after weeks of being in contact, during which time I'm sure that both the other person and me will have used our own initiative and intuition rather than someone elses that I have never met.
Getting off soapbox now redface
Oh dear. It looks as though no one has stepped up to the plate and reitterated that there will be no verification system introduced. This thread then is different from those that went before in so much as people who once said never are now seeing if.
I guess we'll all just log in one day to the fact of it being there.

each paying member should be issued a miniture tattooing kit.
after a successfull meet... the whites of the eyesshould be tattooed with an SW(tick)

i wrote a reply quite a few posts ago but my internet crashed.
i dont pay,but i am real.
i dont cam,but i am real.
i dont reply to winks,i feel they are lazy, the reason i dont meet free members is as far as im aware cause they cant message me??
i am completely unaware who has what type of membership.??
ian if i discover a person isnt really a couple etc i do report them and SH are fantastic in dealing with it, unlike other sites.
what i ment was its easy for a married guy to get verified as a single guy as im presuming all he has to do is show himself alone on cam. it wouldnt mean hes really single.
cant remember what else i wrote.

I know I need to practice the fibbing thing!!!!
Another one here who would opt out....
why am I not a fan on varification.....because people have always had the choice of picking and choosing what is shown, it is always going to show people in a positive light, you only get to see one side....
for example...... my pet beef... people on munch lists who can't be arsed to let the organisor know they aren't coming along......so If I put down on a varification sheet:
"this person couldn't even have the common decency to let the organisor know they were not going to turn up for this event"
harsh, but fair! not said anything there that wasn't true....
Now with the greatest respect,what would be chances of that showing up on anybody's pages or profiles..... I am guessing very very slim to none..
okay.... saying that... lets move another example onwards....
A guy has 2 varifications, yey!!......but he has also been a bit of a arse, he has let down 10 others, and been a bit pushy with 5 others.......
how would you know? cause i doubt he is putting it on his varifications!
whereas a guy who decides to keep all his meets private well he has been the perfect gent, never let anyone down...
are you Still choosing the one with the varifications??
I do understand that not all varifications on the different sites are the same, I use one other site, where it feels as if the varification process is used as if it is notches on a bedpost, and the varifications feel like a blow by blow account of the meets..... do i need to know everything that happened... hell no! am I on that site as much as this one.... no!
not all swinging websites are the same, and that is not a bad thing..... it means people can find different sites out there that make them feel comfortable.......
embrace the differences..... there are websites out there for everyone
different strokes for different folks.....

We would be quite happy to verify we are genuine, but then again we have pics up and a filled out profile.
A lot on here have no pics, or even a profile filled out. What chance have you of getting those people to get verified?
I cannot understand why people have no pics, and am not talking about facial ones. Or why some lazy buggers do not even fill out their profiles.
A lot say about discretion, I say bollocks to that. If we can do it, then why can't others?

Maybe because they don't want to? dunno
We have no pictures, public or private and our profile is not filled in. Why do we not fill in a profile? Simple. We are not looking for meets on this or any other site, although we have probably met several hundred present and ex-members of this site at munches, parties and clubs.
The first website that we came across verification on was D&M's, well before SH was anything but a tiny site. We had met many of the members and several of the chat room ops. We could have been verified but couldn't be bothered.
We are verified on another site although we still have no pictures or profile on that site. Why did we get verified there? Merely to show some arrogant people on the forum there that we were, despite a lack of photos, able to be verified by several people within 24 hours of being accused of being fake.
What is the problem with verification? It doesn't have to be on display - a tick saying verified can be enough. If you don't want to be verified then don't accept anyone's verification of you, but why should you stop people having that facility if they wanted it. Admin has already said that there would be an opt out if lol it comes in so what is the problem? There is certainly an increase in the number of people who would be in favour of verification on this site since the first attempt to have it implemented.
Of the thousands of members here, those that post regularly on the forums are a tiny minority. My feeling from watching the chat rooms is that there are far more people who would be in favour in other parts of the site than regular forum users who would be against. Whether verification would solve the "fakes and timewasters" problem is another question, but my opinion is that anyone who relied blindly on verification will still be let down more times than not.
Sorry I know I have been flamed for this comment before but....Why go onto a swingers site, if people have no intention of meeting others for play?
I have had various answers to that one in the past, but it still has not answered my thoughts on it.
There is a clear definition as to what the word swinger means. As this is a swingers site, I would have thought people were on it to swing.....obviously I am wrong.
We are swingers and we swing...thats it for me. cool

I'm assuming that's directed at us since it follows my post saying we don't look for meets off the internet and I've not noticed anyone else saying they have no intention of meeting off the site. If it's not directed at us then apologies.
Where do we say we don't play? I would be interested on your thoughts as to what you have to do to be a "real" swinger and how often you have to do it to get that accolade.

There is?
Gosh.
I mean yes, I'm sure there is a dictionary definition but from the many folk I have met (sexually and socially!) so-called 'swingers' cannot be easily pigeon-holed.
I'm not entirely sure I'd label myself as a swinger - but I get more than my money's worth out of the site, again both sexually and socially.
And as for why people are on the site, does it matter? How they use it, does that matter? They pay their dues and they can do whatever they wish, surely?

i kinda get what kenty is saying,
ok you might join and give it up, but why would someone join a site if they had no intention or interest in the content of the site?
i wouldnt join a football site for instance.
i guess thats a whole new thread

I do rely on verification. My own. I just know it by a different name. It's called instinct in my world.
It's not foolproof though. We all make mistakes. wink

A discrete mention towards a member of the op / mod / admin team would suffice. I certainly would not advocate a public hanging.
Quote by varca
This will always be a contentious issue and has certainly been done to death.

Is there a reason why it shouldnt be discussed again, maybe with others chipping in?
Maybe i'm just daft and dont understand the rules of the Forum
