Thanks fo voicing your concerns. Please let me reassure you that we want to encourage web models to get their profile verified as much as anyone else. We already consider many of them to be top quality members and a great asset to the website.

The problem is that we do get some people that come here who's only interest is to make money, which is becoming an increasing source of frustration to many of our members. In an open website like ours where we actively try to encourage new members to join, it's almost impossible to keep out fakes and spammers. This isn't just a problem on Fantasy Feeder, it's internet wide, for example it's estimated that at any one time over 50% of Twitter accounts are fake or spam accounts. We have worked hard to try and keep automated spambots from creating accounts and have had some success in this, but real people who try to lure members in, in order to sell them content or solicit gifts are harder to distinguish. It can be particularly frustrating for members looking to date, to put time and energy into getting to know someone, only to find that ultimately they just want to get money.

The verified profiles should help with this, and if we can encourage enough people to get their profile verified it could be a useful search tool.

Thanks for your kind comments.

Get your profile verified to increase your website status. Click the verify button on your profile page for more details.

We've now introduced a new feature to the website which allows anyone to apply for a verified profile. The idea behind this is to make it easier you to quickly find and get in touch with top quality members, people that are who they say they are, and have a genuine interest in feederism and related subjects. You will be able to recognise verified profiles by a green 'shield of approval' icon on their profile page, and you can also search for them in the profiles search.

For your profile to be approved by an admin, you will need to meet the following criteria:

You should not be soliciting for money or gifts
You'll need to remove all requests for money or gifts from your profile, along with links to paysites, wishlists etc. You'll also need to cease any begging or soliciting activities.

You need a completed profile
It doesn't have to be 100% complete, but it should be interesting and informative, and should have an avatar.

You need to upload a verification photo
The verification photo should show your face and a sign saying 'Fantasy Feeder'. For privacy, this photo will only be seen by admins and will not be displayed anywhere on the website.

Any profiles that no longer meet the criteria may be un-verified.

Profile verification is completely free and anyone can apply, so what are you waiting for? You'll get extra status on the website and have nothing to lose, except maybe 5 minutes of your time. Just go to your profile page and click the 'verify' button top right. We'll try to check off the profiles as fast as we can but please be patient, since most of the admins are volunteers and it will be additional work for them.

This is great feedback and much appreciated. It's a lot to take in, so may take me a while to give you a full response. We're all the time working to improve the stories section along with the rest of the website, so will give all these points due consideration.

Please accept my sincere apologies for the mass emailing that some of you received last evening.

This was due to a runaway mailing list script that got stuck in a loop, which sent out the same email multiple times to the same members. It was a couple of hours by the time it came to my attention, by which time many emails had already been sent out.
