Where do I start...
Overall it's not a bad site, there are plenty of genuine guys on there who actually do meet!
Although it states the site is free you are limited to what you can actually do as a free member. It is worth paying to become a paying subscriber, this allows loads of extras and removes those pesky adds.
The Chat room is a good place to get to know people and overall IMO is 99% enjoyable. The Forums however have a number of OP's that find nothing better to slur and cause trouble and for the most part get away with it.
The pitfalls of the site are it looks like something created in the era of DOS, no thought, money or effort is or has been put into it to bring it into 2022.
The complaints procedure is a total waste of time, no warning just a temporary suspension or a complete ban without the ability to question. If you do hit the "contact" option don't expect a reply as you won't get one.
There are numerous methods to pay to become a site supporter, I choose the PayPal route and would advise everyone contemplating to become a supporter to do the same, this gives you the ability to get a charge back if you get a suspension or ban from Admin or an over zealous Mod.
If you were to ask me is it worth it, 50% of me would be a Yes, the remainder a NO. Ultimately that decision is yours.
If you're looking for a site-full of weirdo Tranny's, hairy panty wearers, and Bi-Sexual men who want to incessantly talk about their wives, then you found it. If you're looking for a site for men to hook up with other men - you need to keep looking. This is not the place.
Having worked in many Gay bars and clubs, I've known quite a few drag queens over the years, however these guys are under no illusion as to what they are - a man clobbered-up in women's clothes. Sadly, the Trannys on Fabguys are labouring under the impression that when THEY drag - up (and let's face, that's all they do in reality) they believe they are a woman. The sad news for these sick individuals (and their admirers) is that you're NOT a real woman. Far from it. And your Chromosomes will validate that statement.
Equally sad are the hairy panty wearers and Bi-Sexual men who infest somewhere which is meant to be a site for gay men. There's not more pathetic than some random hod-carrier with hands like shovels parading around in women's underwear. You all look utterly ridiculous. As for the Bi-Sexuals, if you want to talk about your wife, go do it somewhere else. You people are presumably on this site to meet other men - so why all the incessant wife chat? Sometimes people need to make their mind up as to what they are and what they really want. And the bad news is that there are way too many of these kind of people on here.
Out of all the gay sites out there this is the WORST. I'm disgusted I have to give it any stars, it doesn't deserve any.
This dead in the water site rakes in 377K annually and it's like something from the 1980's in design, layout and functionality. But that's just the half of it. It's over run with scumbags, low lifes and criminals. No decent men are left.
It's 'ran' by inept and rarely present administrators who offer zero customer care, but who have the gall to send reminders to those stupid enough to line their pockets. You get nothing worth paying for in the first place. These people, when they do make an occasional appearance, are controlling petty saps who laughably attempt to exert their micro power like little Hitlers by terminating customer accounts for no valid reason and treat them like total trash for minor infractions, yet seemingly encourage illegal activity which is a daily occurrence on it's tawdry forum.
Go elsewhere, it's a cesspit.
Every site has its bad elements. Been on the site for under 2 years and had over a 100 meets. If you are genuine its easy. If you accom and have pics its on.
No gay men on here now, so don't bother joining if you're gay and looking for fun. They all left this cesspit of a site years ago, when it was taken over by female impersonators and married men who use the site to make degrading remarks about their wives/gfs and female celebrities.
Here's a snapshot of some of the users infesting the site.
Stella Heels69 a hard knock 60 something x dresser who spends every waking hour starting lame threads on the forum. His latest offering is yet another topic denigrating his wife, the current one details him coercing her into intimate activity with other men. What a guy!
Domo Sensei a deeply sinister old buzzard who gleefully posts about his under age encounters with very young men. Admin have no problem allowing him to continue using the site. He posts obscenities on a daily basis. Unbelievable.
Biguy******* Another vile old fart, who revels in brazen forum discussions about school girl role play. This old nonce is another who admin feels is a suitable customer if their tawdry site, as he still posts on an almost daily basis.
Mace74 a six footer pushing 50 with a face like a hatchet and hands like tennis bats. This drag artist has a mouth like a sewer and is hell bent on dominating the site with ever more desperate and revolting pictures he uploads.
Celebjuice37 a shambolic nobody who floods the site with his disturbing obsession with a female TV personality. Once again admin allow his perverse posts without question. I've taken the liberty of contacting this womans agent, who I'm sure will be very interested in contacting Andrew Reed, the sites owner in due course.
Gay men, avoid this site. It's a toxic wasteland and should be shut down.
I still use Fabguys, as I find it to be THE best gay dating site, even though you get quite a few young men looking for sugar daddies, time-wasters, & nutters on it! Lol I think it's the best site, as you can get rated (on your profile, for all to see) by others you have met. Also, I have more luck in actually meeting guys there, than any other site! & I'm 62!
Keeps saying my photo needs to be Vairfied will be done in an hour, it has been many hours still cannot get on my page
I signed up to this site about a year back after been recommended by a friend and I think it is absolutely fantastic. I think what I really like about the site is that it is 100% only used for hookups. You would almost look a little silly on there if you were to look for anything else.
Once upon a time we used to use Grindr predominantly for sex but I think things have changed and I've noticed that there is a majority on there who want to chat/date etc and fab in comparison is completely honest about what it is. It's just sex which makes it a fantastic and liberating place to be as the bad characters on there don't last long as they just don't get anywhere.
I've noticed there are quite a few bad reviews but it seems like the majority of the poor reviews are more reflective of the conduct of the person using the site rather than the site itself. I've had some amazing leg trembling experiences on there and do hope to have a few more.
Just take some great photos and have a good time.
This site has the temerity to advertise itself as a site for gay men and "trusted by gay men since 2010", sadly these are misleading statements since it's downfall over the last three or so years. The majority of gay men have now left in droves since the new owner of this now appalling site bought out the company. It most certainly isn't trusted by anyone with a shred of morality or grain of common decency, much less the target group it was originally developed for. Having had an account with them for three years, I was effectively isolated and later banished from the site by this unwelcome gang of odious creatures who have now taken over and dominate the site with an iron fist. Gay men are not welcome on there anymore. We are in the minority. Talk about irony!
Fabguys has now been consumed by a strident and aggressive mob of hellish looking transvestites and hairy pantie wearers who have overwhelmed the site and its forum with an avalanche of revolting photographs and poisonous posts. This motley crew of hardened burly hard knocks, pepper the site with their shrill, aggressive and confrontational outbursts on the sites forum, viciously attacking anyone who even mildly disagrees with any of their comments and hastily reports them to admin, who trip over themselves to punish the "offenders" with suspensions and permanent forum bans.
Most of these pitiable creatures are that deluded they actually believe they look feminine and attractive. But once you look beyond their photo shopped pictures all is revealed. A horrifying gaggle of beefy six footers in cheap wigs and clown like make up, shoulders broader than professional boxers and hands like snow shovels.
They brag constantly about getting the most likes on their photos, conveniently omitting the fact that they have downloaded a photo like app to achieve such high figures.
The most offensive part of Fabguys decline is the brazen favourtism admin and the moderators give to these lot over the gay men who have supported the site since its inception. It's now very clear that the site should be renamed FabTransvestites.
If any gay man is looking to find an app/site, avoid this one at all costs. It really is a total joke.
This site uses to be good and fun, now it is just a place where pic collectors and time wasters meet.
Had someone using my images as their own and site members let the guy continue doing so, repeatedly asked why this was and got told by a mod that if I didn't like it then leave.
Lots of guys on there are married, thought they had a sister site for that!
People arrange meets don't show ask to share pictures and don't send in return but keep asking for more.
Really down grading site and needs looking at.
The site offers no direct support to people that are receiving the hate crime and bullying.
The site also offers no safety information or procedures in order to support their loyal members
A shame of a site that has lost its purpose
It's got verified people so you can at least get a start on who is genuine.
It's also got age filters so you don't get messaged from people outside of your age preferences
And it's basically FREE to use.
Obviously someone with 20 plus verifications is some what genuine.
The best of a very very bad bunch.
Probably the worst gay hookup site on the internet. Full of fake profiles, time wasters and general rubbish. The site owners need to shut this horrible site down because they know so what's going on
They ban you and give no reason Ive seen ppl posting that for years - even if you pay - However DO NOT GIVE CREDIT CARD DETAILS to them under ANY circumstances - Also they have no age verification only a tick box (soon to be made illegal)- I was on there a VERY SHORT time because many many men masturbating (and worse) on public webcams CAN NOT know how old their viewers are? - -ANY LITTLE CHILD THAT CAN DAB A PHONE WITH A FINGER COULD BE ON THERE ---- I dont need to type anymore right? Its disgusting - THATS ALL FACT HAVE A LOOK - and authorities PLEASE PROTECT OUR CHILDREN
I joined this site about 10yrs ago as it was promoted as 'Fun Free and Fabulous for Gay Guys', 'Meet local guys who meet', 'Trusted by Gay Guys since 2010' and it was all of this then, However if you join nowadays you'll find it's all about women, from guys pretending to be women who have toxic tongues and feel the need to have an opinion on anything and everything, guys who want to chat/swap pics and used underwear of their unsuspecting partners, tradesmen who discuss rummaging through customers dirty laundry baskets/personal stuff while the customer isn't in, married guys chatting about their step daughters etc which is all very disturbing. The site owners/admin/mods seem to turn a blind eye as long as people are paying their subscriptions they don't really care that it's now illegal for sharing of private information/images etc without that persons consent. Think the site either needs to join up with its sister site Fabswingers or have a complete overhaul and independent moderators employed so it can return to what it's advertised.
I have been on this website a number of times but all I get are stupid people having a laugh and messing me around. It is a total waste of time and avoid it like the plague.
Pointless trying to use the forum, banned for stating an opinion if a member complains about it regardless of it being an opinion which is the essence of a forum.
Does not recognise a man and a transgendered m/f as a couple. Does not acknowledge the legal marriage of a man to a transgendered woman. Ignored all messages regarding them to change their attitude.
Shocking site with deeply worrying undertones of what some men, particularly old men, are seeking for their delinquent pleasure.
Joined as an undercover member to see for myself after being alerted by anonymous person with plans to expose wider as I'm a journalist.
Two members in particular make no secret of what they are searching for.
Boys.
On an adult gay site. Hmmm...
Dom4twinkyboys - elderly, grey, vertically challenged oddball seeking boys. Quite remarkable that this site allows somebody to advertise their perverse desires as a username!
Describes himself as 'firm but fair' 'rough and ready' come and get it LADS.
'A clean, freshly scrubbed BOY is a treat.'
Yuck!
CanedBoy2021
Yep, another old pervert seeking to 'thrash' the pert little bottoms of BOYS.
Why aren't these two repulsive individuals seeking young men rather than boys or lads on an adult gay dating site?
Why aren't the owners prohibiting these obvious creepy desires from their profiles? Not to mention to advertise it with their usernames.
Many, many more like these two but only enough room to mention two.
Will be passing my dossier to the authorities in due course and let's hope these awful old pervs are traced with their online finger prints.
This app BANS FREE SPEECH edits or deletes status messages has simply TERRIBLE 'moderators' unfair biased and the rely on chatroom snitches who all think they own the chatrooms. DONT PAY THEM ANY MONEY. No one turns up for meets! If you break wind they simply BAN YOU WITH ZERO EXPLANATION. Its a masturbation site A BAD ONE.
You would have thought that a site that encourages It's clientele to become premium members would be a place where you could expect a half-decent level of customer service / support. Without putting a too finer point on it, this is not the case at fabguys.com.
Uploaded pictures going missing, or not making it at all to the public gallery and users profiles, threads on their forums being taken down for no apparent reason, and all this without so much as a scintilla of input from their admin or moderators.
But above all that, there is something else that's very disturbing. And that's their moderators motivating members to whistle-blow on other users, effectively getting other users banned or suspended from the site. This kind of behaviour is beyond despicable and to say the very least, is nothing short of a betrayal to their members.
Along with their sister site FabSwingers, the owners of these sites are raking it in hand-over-fist every month from their subscribers, and this is the way they choose to repay their customers. If you're looking for a good hook-up site, you should move on. This is not what you're looking for. Not by a long way.
