I have written a few reviews here about this site. Back in 2009 I had my first fu profile under the name Gem Girl. Back then I wasn't sober yet and I know I approached things the wrong way, of course I was booted off. In May of 2017 I made another account under the name Kimberly, which evolved into Distants Kim and in the end just Kim. I came back in 2017 with a fresh attitude and 4 years sober. In this account my primary focus was on helping others with the game, and that I did. I made a few very cherished friends this time around and a few who I thought were friends but sadly I found out were not. I worked that page everyday for two years and in December of 2018 I reached the top level and my first crown, my second crown came a few months later as I got to level 75 and in the end I was the first one to reach level 76. There were many who were not happy that I got there first. Nobody knew who I actually was except the people closest to me, Distantraveler, MFKN Acesindahole, and Smokey the Bearman. They are the three closest to me and they watched me rise to the top. I also had quite a few haters for reasons that I never truly understood, I blocked one for leaving unnecessary comments to a friend of mine and she went around spreading all sorts of negative things about me, it was so blown up it was laughable, that's how the so called divas' on that site react when someone else gets to the top before they do, someone told me that they went on a witch hunt, and they did because a month after I got to level 76 they deleted my whole profile saying in my first account I cost the site a ton of money but whenever I ask for proof of that or how I can make right what supposedly happened they can't even provide a list of names or proof that I ever did anything wrong. One friend of mine said that an admin told her that they don't have a problem with me but that it's Scrapper's personal grudge against me. It is what it is and if you hate someone that much and want to carry it around with you for the rest of your life that's on you. I achieved every goal that I set out to do on fubar. I came back and got the crown three times, I went out on top and I'm good with that. The fact that they deleted my profile or hid it tells me that they didn't want people to be asking questions about what happened, so why not just bury it lol In that account I did nothing wrong, and they deleted a crown and I've heard from many that the site hasn't been the same since. The fact is that if they don't like you for whatever reason on fubar they'll find a reason to get rid of you, fair or unfair, justified or not they'll make up a reason if they have to, I've seen it happen. If you hurt the feelings of one of their precious bouncers, you might as well just say goodbye. Any good review that you see on jabber is most likely a bouncer that has written it or been asked to write a positive review. One bouncer asked me to write a positive review and I did about 8 months ago, he knows who he is. It is actually very funny when I look back and think about it, I wasn't supposed to be there but somehow was invited into the bouncers personal chat room and I was even fu married to a bouncer for a whole 12 hours lol all that any of them know how to do is bully and intimidate people. I won't even go as far to say this is a scam site, the same people that have been there for over a decade are still there and that keeps them going. Those profiles there do not belong to the members, they belong to fu and fu can take them away anytime they want to, the Kim profile had over 8000 blings, I still had credits in it, 101,000 achievement points and my crown, and they deleted it all without any reason, and if there was a reason they have no proof. What an unprofessional way to run a website. Life goes on though! One day there will be a website that is created that is actually a game, and fair, a place where the bullies don't run the site and you can make actual friends.
I had been an active member of Fubar.com for 9 plus years. It was always a good place to spend some downtime talking with friends you had made over the years
and generally passing time. That was until the fall of 2017.
It was in the fall of 2017 that it became clear to myself and others, that I had stepped on the toes of friends of the favored.
In this instance her screen name is "Candi". Candi and I had been "friends" for years prior but she was clearly upset by my recent
interactions with others on the site and began to harass myself and those I know to do a "salute". To be clear, it was never something I had to do.
Years prior the issue arose for leveling. At which time i did a salute approved by Scrapper himself to level which was later taken down.
Fast forward to December 2017. A member of the site asserted himself as taking the lead in pursuing myself and friends to
force a salute as well as slander me personally as being "fake". Screenshots of certain conversations between parties in these events is
documented and real. I became aware that an Apple support was a member of the site and involved in this as well . This association is important to note,
as the subsequent hack of my iPhone X, my home laptop and other social media platforms were compromised over the Christmas holiday. I contacted Apple and asked them
to look into it . As suspected, Apple was able to tell that the iPhone was indeed hacked from inside their platform, but that was the only information I was given.
Investigation revealed that the ip address matched one Gary French...aka petah goezinya. These investigations have case numbers, and are anything but resolved.
At the same time A certain "blogger" by the name of Johnny Devil inserted his self into the picture as he calls himself the " king of the fakes" deciding to post
screenshots attempting to once again "call out" someone as he likes to claim but with no backing in his statements he kinda faded away , But oh hey Johnny boy since youre
all about people using their real identity why is it you hide behind a fake persona and if your life on fu is so real and you dont do fake why do you claim youre married
when your "wife" is purely a fu thing .... but back to the original point of this ol JD if youre such a stand up real guy step out from behind the persona on fu
and actually show your real identity like you feel everyone else should do. Oh thats right you cant because of your harrassing bullying and copyright law you break daily
for your lame $#*! blog your identity would be a bad thing to reveal wouldnt it.
My account is now locked, my personal pictures removed, mostly screenshots of those with ill intent toward myself and my family. Despite giving the
hacking information to support staff to which i was basically told disputes between members are not the websites issue to handle that is why there is a block feature.
Now just to be clear this all transpired because of Scrapper not having the balls to stand up to his "Big spenders" and allows them to do whatever they want even crossing
the line of felonies. And lets not forget the felonies Social Concept alone participated in when they locked me from access to my account but continued to
charge my credit card for vip services which i was not allowed to use (A common form of fraudulent billing is charging for services that are not rendered.
This fraud is committed when health care providers bill insurance for servicesthat are different than the services actually rendered, or bill for services
they did not provide at all. for months the site committed this fraud against me and no telling how many others.
its definitely a lesson learned, memories lost and time wasted.. so before you join this site consider the things above, the site is supposedly for adults but ive seen
better morals actions and etiqute from a bunch of highschoolers. And as far as the "legend" of scrapper it takes balls to be a legend and that you cant include the ones on his chin while
hes gagging on baby js $#*!
I get my profile deleted more than 10 times for no reasons, i paid much money on their website and i get my profiles deleted after that, i will take them to the court and get all the money i paid for, fubar admins are not good people, they treat you like trash, and plus they are all perverts people. Very perverts, visit their website and see this by your own eyes, and they don't put their business numbers they are afraid of people, do a search on google and see how many people pissed off. I will see ya soon babyjesus. Updated, may 28 2018 im here again and i will say more things about this website that i did not say in my first review, first thing as i sad they don't treat anyone good as long as you are not friend or slave with the admins, if they don't like you they will block or ban or delete you, and there is a big problem too which is, they keep your profile and all your photos on there and you don't have access to them, they have no right to keep my info and my photos if they ban me, illegal in every internet laws, you can't delete your profile and your own photos or anything, im webmaster too, plus they use paypal as payment which is very strange thing, paypal rules does not allow a porn adult websites to use their services but this website use it i don't know why and how, but paypal put rules for this website to use it, the main rule is no porn or naked photos on public places on the website, put you can put naked sex porn photos in folders which you can access after you sign in, don't think that fubar are good people to do this but they are forced to do this because that what paypal rules, that's what paypal told them to do, and as i know paypal does not allow any kind of adult porn website using their services but how and why they allow this site to use it i don't know, also, there are some people who are bad people, not just rude people, and if they are slaves for the admins they can say and talk to people the way they desire and they will say anything, they will threaten you by killing and all that bullying and admins will not delete their profiles as long as they are friends or rather slaves for the admins, but if you are not slave for the admins and you sent a compliment for a woman they will tell you you are azzhole creepy and block ban you, i was member since 2005 or 2006 so im old user and i know what exactly is going on, also these blings are just little small photos that cost very unbelievable money while you can download a real arts photos on other websites for free and send them to your beloved ones or your friends, again they treat anyone who they don't like like trash even if you are very respectful to them, if you ask for help, they will not answer and they might answer after weeks or months and if they did, their answers are shorts and dirty and will not fix your problems, most of the problems is they having problems with their website bulid and script not members probllems, that cause a lot of troubles for members, i tell every admin and that scrapper kids abusers and every pervert person that run the site with that another pervert that called babyjesus, there are too many minros in their website and with their profile approved with real approved photos, for all the admins if you are rude from inside that's ok but keep it to yourself but don't be rude to customers because this is illegal in any online or offline business, and no human will accept this, treat people with respect, and it's adult pron site that most women there selling sex and ask for blings and things that cost money to show you their naked photos, there are many another adult websites that you can see and access photos and videos for free but they don't treat people bad and they don't delete or ban you, personally i will never pay to see bad girl photos i will never pay money not even for real sex, these women who ask for blings and things that cost money they told from the admins to do that so they also can make money, i have no problems with another adult porn dating or social adult websites, all the good rating reviews here are fake, they probably peple sent from the admins or the admins themself put such reviews, and many things i can say but i have things to do and im running online business too, i know you feel me, you got the points
I went back to Fubar hearing the promise of changes that were for the better when I was a member during its infancy under another name. A social media site & a game, now more a slaughter house for sexual depraved, and protected by its governing staff.
I enjoyed my time when it was something else, people seemed to be comrades if you will and a sense of fun. Changes occurred as everything evolves, and it became about the dollar not the guest experience. If you had trouble, they'd question you until you gave up, ultimately what I think is their mantra. Why give back to the people who pay your salary when it would be easier to annoy them until they leave. I came back hoping for a better experience. I was dead wrong.
I will leave my account dormant and hope for change to come about again. Being a social media site, there should be some sense of protection from others. Some sense of fair play between the others. Not the case at all. Within minutes of signing up, my message box was flooded with sexual harassment and badgering, to which I spoke to a group of support: their reply was to block. Not to seek the perpetrators, and get the information that would be readily available it had happened, but for ME to block. Thus telling me they can care less because I don't spend the money some do. It truly has become about the almighty dollar. I read blogs about help, and there were some nice people who tried to keep me grounded, help out and what not. But if you aren't spending, it seems to be a site not for you, even from it's owners or management if you call them that. I read many comments and statuses on how they truly can care less about people, even some going to management about things, and being argued to death over pixels and points that don't cost the site a dime.
If I have an issue with Amazon, Barnes & Noble, hell, even a restaurant site, they don't argue, they listen, they apologize, they investigate and they make it right. It seems that they run it like a frat party instead of a customer oriented business and alienate even their best customers arguing over things called achievements & points.
It's a shame. I so loved my time long ago. Met some lifelong friends. But for now, I'll hope that someone will guide them into the age of they should be good to the people who are good to them. Their service is the worst i've seen. They have a support group, but even they seem to have hands tied because the ones who seem to be the issue are directly responsible for them. To make it better, the people in charge should hire people who know how to run a service company. People who care many clients spend good sizable amounts of money, and not just cater to the upper echelon of those, even those who only spend a couple of bucks once in awhile. Too much control for those to handle and too full of themselves. I actually saw one complaint from said person that this very site took down some review that seemed favorable. It seemed so paranoia filled, I almost laughed at the screen. In essence it told me my time is done once again, and I will hope for better future or else it'll be run into the ground. A company cannot survive alienating those who use its service as this place does.
Again, a humble opinion from someone who ran a multi-million dollar restaurant for close to a decade. Giving a free meal didn't cost me if a guest had some trouble or problem, it made sure I stayed open with word of mouth I cared about conflict resolution. It also made sure the person got what they paid for. Upper management and even it's upper crust of clients: are the conflict. They completely 'never make mistakes' I saw a few say. Even when they've had technical glitches, they don't reward or fix the wrongs given, they tell people on the site, oh well. Their formulas don't add up one of their very top people said complaining about bonuses repeatedly. He seemed to question them alot, even has what is called a crown, 'top level' yellow name and spends a whole bunch always running those pixels they call bling. I wish them well, and just a review, take it or leave it. I think if people want to socialize I'd recommend observing before diving in. It has too many cliques and can be very unforgiving to people that aren't professional at it, meaning spending hours upon hours on this game. I wish them well and hope changes will bring another revolution of their circle. If not, I fear they won't last many years ahead. Service should become their priority and all the rest would fall into place.
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.
Look, lets hit this review from another POV. My experience with people has been that even if you provide a really good product or service, presented and delivered with a well thought out agenda, DO IT ALL FOR FREE... all in the name of entertainment and without any malicious intent... there will always be people out there that cant be pleased. No matter what they STILL aren't happy? Unbelieveable. Why don't you try a thank you or a good job, nice work. You folks could win the lotto and complain that the free money you just got wasn't enough? Really? WTF. Let me see if I follow: but first let me make sure that you are clear about a few things. First and foremost: The fubar culture is fictional... the bar in the game is imaginary. This imaginary theme can be applied to the likes the fans the people. The creators and administrators had a beautiful imagination... they turned it into entertainment and SHARED it... not only among themselves but for thousands of others... its has so many different ways to entertain yourself even without participating in the dating aspect of the site. They have some of the coolest imaginary games and scenarios, achievements, ways to advance levels, or gain respect, showcase your talents, Even the worst case of attention deficit disorder is satisfied. Point is yes, there are real people on here, yes, just like in the real world some people can be jerkoffs, yes, in the real world people manipulate each other and then sugar coat it and then deny it All strictly to forward their personal agenda. Think about it. Husbands, wives, employers, athletes, friends, businesses, rock stars, actors and losers... all these people/entities utilize some form of coercion to accomplish their goals... in the real world. So to make sure you and I are on the same page... fubar is an imaginary website kids, in order to enhance the reality of the experience the creators wisely infused it with real life content from real people... to make the experience more authentic, to show you what a 3d imagination is capable of creating. When you shut the app down for the night... Its STILL Imaginary WTF are your feelings getting hurt for? Do you people really have no sense of real and make believe? Do you think you have to file a claim with geico in real life... if your playing hotwheels with your kids and you have a fender bender? You need to up your medication... What about the monopoly game when you are almost broke,... do you really give up just because you spent all your money at the 4 crack houses on Baltic Ave?. Make the separation people.
The second thing you MUST realize in order to enjoy the site is quantity of the stuff given to you for FREE. Yes that's right no charge, ya know? Gratis... Most people realize this and are happy that from the very beginning you are showered with imaginary ways to entertain yourself for free. Try starting with a thank you... or don't... just realize that they give you sooo many different free things that other sites nickel and dime you to death for, restrict your promotion, play with your emotions or fake their members responses to use your lust against you, overcharge you or continue to bill your account monthly until you get the act of congress to get them off your nipple. This site is a breath of fresh air. In the classiest of online ways they give you x, y, and Z. Bling is their way to pay the help, improve the app, and reward their creative efforts... a non invasive system of bling is created. They don't make it a money hungry requirement... Instead they make it an option... If you spend money and then they make a game out of it... and then make it FUN. Heck of a deal if you asked me. Other sites you cant barely get past logging in before they pester you for money and then design the app so that you cant even p[roceed without digging into your back p[ocket. Do yopu understand that this the only site I have been on that even tries to lube it up? Really? WTF? You don't see the difference yet? Now let me just give you a short list of what the sight offeres you for entertainment in an intergrated imaginary world that creators of other sites only wish their brtains were capable of creating.The whole drink/gift game sending choosing commenting and entertaining thousands as we speak... the mafia game, all the acievements live feeds... status updates, BLING, limitless in app communication,. Ability to download music and shjare videos, and video chat... share post pics even hot ones of your crush... buttnaked... Fu married fu owned fu engaged POKES... all this had to be created developed p[romoted, reglated and the members educated to give it all for free? Heck of a deal... all that and you whine and write crappy reviews becauise you have the OPTION to spend money or guess what they let you play even with ZERO credits. WTF?
One last thing that you have to realize is that since they are trying to make It realistic, why are you blaming the app for things that don't go your way? My experience is that I p[ush the line enough to get warned and even deleted buy other sites I been on a little over a month ion FUBAR and have had my own self thinking wow that's borderline bnehavior... hope they don't flag that... I don't have a huge following mine is basically non existent, I don't run with the administrators or bouncers or DJs... I have zero credits. I level up regularly THey do things where you can win thinsgs that cost money for free Other well financed members can fund your fun. THIS is the TIP. Carry yourselves properly, think about what youre about to post prior to hitting the go button. Realize you are not that cool anyway and your not cool here either and its ok... really... read the apps title if you think that only the wealthy succeed. Whatever you do be aware of others feelings use your manners at every opportunity, keep your real life junk in the trunk cause "like" on your profile is not synonymoius with "$#*!" Use good taste and respect when you interact with the members, let your imagination run, and get that stick out of your $#*! cause I guarantee if you tried a little less on posting un-informed stupid $#*! comments and a little more time figuring out the navigation and leveling up, getting blinged and making friends, developing game strategy and adding funny or awesome photos, and how about Increasing the Peace?... I would almost guanantee a good time... you could be one of those miserable people though that must be displease as a default. If so the others will see you in hell cocksmoker. Seems to have been on here longer than me Profile Name: Will... started 23 July 2016... Level 30... just had 30 day anniversary thx to everyone for the bling
keep your imagination healthy immerse yourself in the community's imagination be original be honest and treat the ladies with respect hard as it is to believe...save the hotdog shot till after the first like on your profile...in fact scratch the hotdog and full moon p[pictures all together. Your best friends are humor, imagination, and class...use them in all your interactions....
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 :)
I have been on Fubar since the beginning of 2007. I was given the link by a bouncer that I played games on Pogo with. At first I thought "what the f**k did I get myself into, but quickly found the MuMMs and I knew that I found my "niche". I was going through a terrible time back then, and the MuMMs not only proved to be an amazing distraction, but through the years I have made some fantastic friends, shared many a laugh and cry with them, have met a few and intend to meet more. Some of my best friends are ones I met on Fubar.
As to the butthurt whiners who posted negative reviews, seriously? It is an adult site, and just like in a real bar, expect to encounter all sorts of people. Remember you are responsible for your own actions, if you are stupid enough to fall for a "scam" and lose money, well duh that happens in real life too, more so than on Fubar. People will do anything to make themselves feel important, and if you choose to spend money on a so call "hot" woman or man and get scammed or lose money due to false promises, well shame on you. It is a FREE site to join, and the rest is up to you. Yes I've spent more than I admit on the site, but that is my choice, I enjoy gifting people the paid items on there, and on my VIP and occasional ability blings which I run for fun.
For those who claim their pictures were stolen, well as with anything that's on the internet, once it's out there, it's out there. Deal with it, and use the privacy settings that Fubar has to help you keep things secure. If you sell pics of your nasties for "credits" or "blings" well then shame on you, and you deserve it.
The site has clear TOS and if you violate them, of course admin will hold you accountable. I cannot believe the reaction of those who get all butthurt when caught doing what you clearly agreed NOT to do when you signed up. Ryan and Mike are great guys, and yes it is a business, so they are not doing anything horrifying when doing their job. I don't envy them for what they must go thru on a daily basis dealing with said butthurt babies. Grow the hell up and enjoy the site.
All that being said, I also want to stress that I was NOT asked, bribed or pushed to post a positive review. There have been plenty of times where I was upset about things that have happened, but a quick chat or fumail to admin or a bouncer has always helped me understand what happened, or fixed the issue that upset me when warranted.
That's about it... long story short, I am clearly a big fan of Fubar, it has helped me get through more than one rough time in my life by providing entertainment, an outlet, and a nice escape from the stress of everyday real life. Thank you :)
