  I think you are probably ruling yourself out of meeting some very nice people who just simply haven't gotten around to doing the photo verification thing or just can't work out what that's all about lol I think some people are convinced that their face pics will get posted on the site?We have a preference for people who are photo verified but we'll still be looking out for all the key things that will ensure the people we contact are likely to meet us. Photo verification doesn't help you avoid time wasters :PIf a non-verified couple approaches us we'll still show interest but we'll look at whether the people have some validations or mutual friends and take it from there. If they are prepared to give us a phone number, then that's cool. If they are unverified AND insist on just chatting on MSN or swap pics, we don't bother. There are too many cool people on here who are serious about meeting and not enough time!So maybe look at other factors in ruling people in or out. It's rare but there are some couples with a lot of validations but they are not verified. Maybe we'll hear from them here and they can explain why they haven't bothered to photo verified.

  I choose to be that way. Personally Validations scream to the world that he played with her... etc - and to be honest, I'm a little old fashioned in that respect. I don't mind one on one revelations about who played with me, but I really don't want my profile to scream it out.... it's just not for me. As for Verification... I know I am me and I choose to NOT be verified. Anyone who met me knows I am the real deal. Verification is not something I need to do. I'm sure others think like me too - so don't block yourself from meeting some really nice people. If you want to verify someone - get them on webcam. Wayne x

  We are new to the site, and we are not verified. I dont have validations either...but like Roxy...we are real also. I dont know why it is necessary to be verified, and so until I think it is necessary, I am not going to bother. It really isnt a high priority for us either. We are lucky in the sense that we are so new, we have not come across time wasters or liars as...apparently I have been told there are many on this site. I also like to chat on msn, to get to know you first...but Im a realist also...if we get on with chatting, i want to meet and see if that goes well. But that is just how I am. At this stage...knock wood...we have not had any negative experiences...but like roxy again...we dont want anyone else drawing their own conclusions dependent on the friends we have added or any so called validations...if indeed that ever happens. Hope this helps Mrs Shy

  Bad girl. Go to my room. ...........................now. I see your point in validations. It's akin to Nick kissing and telling. I have 2 but I'm not ashamed of them. Both I would spend the rest of my life with if they wanted. I have just recently verified myself. For me to just get my pic up was a hassle. I had to email them to the help desk. Verification for us guys I feel is important it says we are not loopy stalkers. My profile is open anyway. With a face pic. Open and honesty are big things with me. Wayne.

  sorry we're bad as we've been members for a while but still haven't gotten round to verifying our profile. We totally understand how some people are with non verified members. So many fake profiles out there and people just trying to cop a perve at pg's. For us its just laziness (hubby works away) ok next chance we get we'll do the righty. But if anyone has any doubts happy to chat on phone to prove we're the real deal. Sorry penniandpound hehe (you know we're for real)

  We are with p&p on this one. If you are not verified or validated we are much less inclinded to take you seriously. Roxy, we accept your argument that kissing and telling is not always a good idea but the validations do not need to say he/she/they are great f.cks... it can simply say "we met them, they're real". This is a small scene really and it doesn't take long for the chain to spread to someone who you know. It's the seven degrees of seperation rule... in hollywood everyone can be traced back to Kevin Bacon!! Wayne we also understand what you are saying but p&p's point is that they need to sort the wheat from the chaff somehow and although as you say "those who have met me, know I'm the real deal" how do those who haven't met you work that out from your profile? The profiles that bother us are the ones (usually single girls) with 50+ "friends" but no verification and no validations...really!!!! you have 50 friends but not one of them is prepared to say "I met her, she is lovely!" We like to do this as a couple but with busy lives and kids the chances of us both being available to msn or web-cam together are minimal. It is just so much easier if the profile is verified, we can swap phone numbers and the girls can have a quick chat and arrange a "date". I'm sure that over the years there have been exceptions to our preference for verified &/or validated profiles but only when the parties involved have been very upfront and honest and quickly swapped face pics and phone numbers...otherwise you could spend weeks wasting time chatting to people who really should be on some other site. And there ends my lecture for today....lol

  My perspective on this particular subject is this. I see validations and verification of profiles two very different issues altogether. I verified my profile once I actually decided to stick around and play in the ooze pond. RHP is without a doubt a whole lot better than some of the other 'dating sites' so I made the effort. Validations are not something I choose to utilize as I prefer to maintain my privacy and the person/s I choose to meet. And yet, I have considered meeting a few based upon their validations. I see both processes more applicable to 'couple' and or 'swingers' as group play brings about a completely different situation. Then again, as someone pointed out, who is to say a validation is genuine? At the end of the day, regardless of what a profile says, whether it's validated or verified, it's up to us to put in the effort and do our own detective work to ascertain who we choose to meet and play with.

  Yes well we've only verified ourselves - not through lack of trying tho - for some unknown reason the rhp server wouldn't accept our validation photo (even tho it was to their requirements) and all other pics have been accepted. Only changed once I sent them a text message saying we couldn't get the bloody thing accepted - so maybe there's many others like ourselves that have had the same problem.....
