Fubar

I have been on fubar for about a little over three months now. Originally I thought it was a dating, gaming, social web site. In truth, it is practically all three all wrapped together. You just should read everything a little better before joining. I had some issues at the beginning because I had problems figuring things out. There are a few tips of advice I could say that one should follow. Watch who comes onto your chat box wanting to say that just want to chat. A lot of women on there are trying to be the top ones, just like someone else wrote about the "Top Dogs". That's what I call them anyway. If your playing it as a game, somewhere around the level 47 stage or so you will need to start investing money into credits to buy their power up blings. Otherwise you will never level up to the next level. The catch with some of the women coming on chat to pretend to flirt is for their own agenda. They will sometimes be down right forward and beg you for the credits or blings. Others do that in time after they made you feel comfortable with them. I learned fairly quick to ask fairly quick what it is they want when on my chat. Had a few issues with women asking for blings and credits. One asked to borrow 25 credits in promise to pay for a 65 credit pack back the next day. She wouldn't respond to my messages after that. The one someone already named, Scrapper, he did give me the 25 credits back. The support team said if she gets caught they will lock her account. Haven't as of this writing. Many of the women asking for the bling state it is for achievements. You go to their profile page and they have like 6,000 or more already. There are three from the owners or whatever, they just love to give pretty women, and/or just the "Top Women" selectively high to low credit blings. A lot of those 6,000 plus bling women get many from them. That would be the guy at fubar office, baby jesus, and scrapper. Well yeah, what the heck, if I was rich I probably would be too. Then I had an issues with getting past the 2,500 likes needed to level. I can sit here all day long and like over 2,000 women, all day and night, then just get around 250 like and ratings back. Used 6 power ups and didn't get past the 2,500 likes needed. But Scrapper seems to be a good guy, and he did level me up. I have also met someone I plan to marry. A real shy filipina who had been on a long time but never leveled. I love her to death. Long story and I tried to cover some of everything. Pay close attention to women asking you to give out your cell number or real Email address, they're scammers. And yes, if you don't want everyone complaining about your half naked, or naked pictures, then mark the NSFW in a NSFW folder. Or yes your pictures may get deleted or even you accout. Just use your head, it can be what you make of it. I found what I was looking for. The owners are fair, you just need to watch what your doing or make it your business to find out why someone suddenly wants to chat out of the wild blue. Tough game, fair owners, fun people if you chose wisely, and a social site all in one.

I've been on Fubar just 2 months. In the short time I've been there, I have been hit up on by dozens of men, many of whom are not respectful. Many are overtly sexual despite my warning them to stop, and it clearly stated on my profile that I will not chat or friend men (or women) who are obnoxious, sexual or crass. Ultimately, I have had to block a few people.

I got into the game out of curiosity and quickly got interested in the various game options and ways to move up. With little investment --- $10 worth of bling-- I have managed to ascend to level 36 in two months, but with significant time spent there liking, rating photos, polishing other people's "bling", and enduring men who are overtly sexual and offering bling but expecting me to converse with them or send them private photos. Which I refuse to do.

Fubar is not for me a "dating" site, but sort of an interesting visit to another planet. I have watched some seemingly normal people on there, but plenty of sad and desperate men or outwardly attention seeking women spend hundreds, if not thousands of dollars, to achieve popularity and attention.

I will still continue to play but often find the environment depressing. Most of the men, with rare exception, look like losers or older guys seeking cheap thrills outside their marriages or steady relationships. While it is a technically "free" site, this IMO is a terrible way to meet anyone you might want to know in real life. I heard from one older gentleman (interested in me) that over the years, several women have duped him for "bling", some have visited him in real life and taken advantage of him. The man spends quite a lot of discretionary $$ on "credits" on Fubar, and in real life I believe has a very modest life. I don't think he is an isolated case, at all.

Rather than let Fubar become your costly addiction, why not engage with people in your community in REAL life. Volunteer at an animal shelter, a church, or get involved in other good deeds. Read books. Garden. Take a class. Improve your home. Find a better job. Seek a relationship (if that's what you are looking for) on more legitimate dating sites, or through clubs and other interests.

Fubar is a GAME, and a costly one if you get seriously addicted to achieving levels. The owners of Fubar are very clever, clever enough to see that people in this culture desire to be loved, admired, and have attention, and this is the platform upon which the game is run. Fubar creators are laughing all the way to the bank, at your expense.

This Fubar crowd should be arrested. I have long lists of Fubar spam in my Trash and Junk folders. It's the worst example of junk mail in all the many years I have been online. I unsubscribed and the mailings increased. I'll be happy when they are shut down.

This fubar is very racist! They don't like Asians! I am an Asian and my account has been deleted for the 4th time now! If they do not want to have Asian members, then there should have been a disclaimer like this, "ASIANS ARE NOT WELCOME SO IF YOU WILL STILL JOIN, REST ASSURED THAT YOU WILL BE BLOCKED!" I haven't even received any notification as to why my account was deleted/blocked! I don't post nude photos, make snarky comments, etc. they should have the decency to at least send a notification before deleting/blocking someone's account, right? I tried emailing the fubar support but received o no reply, also tried to chat with BabyJesus to ask what is going on and what should I do to prevent it from happening, did I reveive any response? No! So, after a half an hour I tried sending him another chat but guess what, my message didn't go through. This is BS! If I could give you a negative star I would!

I have been on this site on and off for a few years now, and decided to write a review. People can attack you, but you can't attack them or you get kicked off (just happened). Some of the profiles catch your attention, by giving you a rate, like, friend request, fan. You go to that profile to rate them back, because the tool tip doesn't allow it on that profile. Anyway, their is a pop up that gives you a discount for buying bling. This site is a bunch of scammers trying to make a buck, when you don't pay or let them treat you like crap, you get kicked.

Lol, the little bit of time I was on this site baby jesus had a status that read "Rock out with your rock star out". This guy makes himself look cool, so you think you should be just like him. If you want to know what a brain washer is, stop by baby jesus's account. Baby Jesus, come on, this guy must think he's going to lead us to salvation.

Just an update, this site is a net work of criminals. I signed up after I was thrown off with a different email account. They start a fight, and you get blamed for something. I'm a stalker now for answering mums. Legal theft is ok!

Been a member on the website since 2006. Gone through all the names changes the site went through and all the changes the site made in general. Do I have issues with the site yes. However it's not the people running it. It's the people who decide to go there and troll the site. If you go there understanding that you don't give out information, share certain photos, and take steps to make sure these people are who they say they are then it can be a fun community to be on. It's one of the few that allows you to rate. You can interact for FREE where many want you to pay to be able to send a message. It's also a game and has games. If you go there to play games or to just chat with people it's a fun place to be on. Unfortunately some people suck the fun out of everything.

FUBAR IS A GAME - Pure and simple that is all it is. Not a dating site and it need not cost you any money at all. The basis of the game is to RATE, LIKE and COMMENT on profiles which earn you POINTS and FUBUCKS which then progress you through the levels. You do make some friends on FUBAR and you can make them part of your Family on it. It is a Bar as there are Cyber drinks to send to other members which iis a use for FUBUCKS. Some denigrate it, others like it. You go on it and see for yourself. It is not like FACEBOOK, thank heavens for that. You can spend as little or as much time on it as you like.

So as you all know, before flubar i was a quiet, unassuming, apathetic lemming who generally believed that mankind was for the most part gentle, good, and kind in nature. And that honesty, virtue, and morality were the norm and not the exception. But. My time there has been a period of growth, change, and education. I've been awakened from the mundane slumber that was life before flubar. I traversed the gauntlet of photoshopped catfish, synonym abusers, and control freaks to emerge from the other side stronger, hungrier, and wildly opinionated. And i won't even mention how insanely faymouse i've become. In short, this has quite possibly been the best two and a half weeks of my life. I love you flubar!

I have been on Fubar for 9 years. It's a great social site. It is a free, but yes, you can spend a lot on there... but that's of your own choosing. There are some fake people, fake friends, users, scammers, liars, cheaters... but isn't that true anywhere online and in real life? Yeppers. But Fubar does have a whole bunch of really great, genuine people that keep the site fun. An the staff... let's give them a hell yea for keeping the site going and putting up with all of us lol Thank you Fubar for all that you do.

I've been on Fubar almost from the beginning. ( 9+ years) I've been involved with the site in many ways, member and bouncer and I would have to say overall it's a fun place to wind down your day. Yes, there are issues as there are with anything but honestly, how couldn't you expect some things to not happen? If your not being stupid and you are playing fairly and doing what you should be, then your account is safe and you will have no worries of anything happening to it ( locked down or suspended or deleted) Ryan ( Scrapper) has his hands full dealing with the every day issues and on top of those, he has to play peace maker and middle man to those who want to complain and cry about every little thing. ( and trust me, I am in no way speaking nice about him because he has asked me to. Him and I have our share of disagreements and arguments but we are adults and deal with it between us. And we remain friends which shows he will go above and beyond to do what he can to fix your issues as long as you treat him accordingly. And even when you want to treat him like crap, he will still fix the issue, he just may not talk to you much during the process) Mike ( BabyJesus) is a down to earth person that enjoys what he does and wants to make the site as fun as possible for those of us that love being there. Are there bouncers who are only out for themselves? There very well maybe but Ryan and staff go through a lengthy process to try and make sure they are getting the best possible people there to help you at anytime of the day or night with any issues you may have. Yes, you can spend real money if you choose to and no you don't have to. That choice is completely yours. Yes, some people have NSFW pics that they want you to buy credits to see ( again that is completely your choice if you pay them) but Admin do have rules about where and how those pictures can be posted as well. No internet site is without nudes sadly. Basically, you hold the power as to if you want to be there or not. If you don't and your under a certain level then click that settings button and delete your account or if your over a certain level, then by all means... Message Scrapper and tell him you want your account deleted. I am sure he will make sure to address your concerns and do as you ask asap :)
