Hey all!
Since I know, by experience and comments, that there are soooooo many fakes persons on that site, I thought I'd create a post for everybody to be able to tell us who is true and who is false here. I am a true person and everything I tell about me here is true, so I don't worry very much. lol But it'd be nice to have a place to tell the entire truth, tell about our experiences, and, of course, clearly name the fake people.
So, here we go! lol
Cheers,
Single babygirl
This is the internet. I could tell you how honest I am while not being so honest. It's up to you to believe it. But from what I observe, nobody wants to make themselves look evil. The fakes will never admit they are fakes, ever. It's not like the comic books where the evil people are evil, are aware they are evil and proud of it. In real life, we put a shiny coat of wax over all the ugly bits and work up a public relations campaign to convince people how likeable and cool we are even if we're utter jerks. I could be wrong but that's how I se it.
Perhaps lead by example SBG? Are you a fake person on here or real? That is to say I've not actually heard you say anything about yourself yet so who are you? We're all interested?
Lol oh wow, sound like this question makes you angry so I guess you feel concerned? lolll Well, I'm not the kinda chick to spread everything about me with perfect unknown people... When I say fakes, I mean... when you begin to personnally talk to a person, it lasts several weeks or months and well, sooner or later, if this person is a fake, you'll know it. I'm not a fake and proud to be a honest girl!!! If you don't believe me, that's your choice, but well, your strong reaction to a very little question shows something..... maybe, anyway.
You've hit the nail on the head right there though haven't you. You could tell me anything and as it happens no I don't believe you, or indeed anybody. I'd be a fool to be any different because the only contact we have right here on the zone is written word. I mean, I could be happily talking to somebody one week who was telling me what a great fantastic God fearing person they were, then the next week you could find them spread all over the media as a killer or something. There really is no telling so in short, no I don't outright believe people when they tell me things.
Aah, finally time to reveal the real wildebrew. My name is really Jean McCurry and I am an Indian Japanese descendant whose ansestors sneaked across the U.S. border with Cambodia around the turn of the Century of the Fruit Bat. Having such a girlish name was very hard for me, growing up so I was bullied and teased at school, especially in home Ec, because I tended to get the highest grades, so what if I enjoy my inner woman and wouldn't take my aprin off when class was over, I have the right! But I found my outsider group, when I started playing Banjo for Billy and the Butt Cheeks, a great band who wrote the song which finally inspired Alabama residents to break free from the evil Union, fly the confederate flag and make Y'all the only legal pronoun in their language. At the age of 20 my hobbies included migit throwing and feminism in all its earthly manifestations until, when setting up a sign for the Alabama conference on gender equality, also known as "women to rule the world, out with the bastards" I hit the nail on the head and it went dee folks! real deep! and I lost my sight and haven't been able to find it again, although some claim it is still in my left trouser pocket. I shower once every to years, y'all, and y'all's better believe ya'll! when y'all's says so.
That is the story of my life, so far, and is someone actually going to claim I made all of this up! what utter nonsense and closed mindedness!
Well, my real name is billy bob, I have three teath left, my wife is also my daughter and sister, don't ask I don't get all your con fangled morals and logic. I own three hunting dogs, two cars that are on blocks, 4 shotguns, my momma's in prison and my daddy and I is gonna walk across that there graduation stage for fifth grade and then go drink some goood old paps blue ribbon, and chew some tabaco.
Whether someone is a true or false is up to the people in that dicussion in which they have daily with one another and what you or them want to believe about them is true or false.
yep totally agree with Dan (harp) it's the internet. as much as most of us are real and honest, written word could never 100% testify.
firstly I agree with Dan, this is the internet, it's very easy to be something you're not, although I will say that I am 150% certain that Dan is not a fake :).
secondly, what really constitutes a fake? You can make up a ficticious life, create a job for yourself,a husband, a couple of kids, and in reality you could just be a lonely teen looking for friends. Alternatively you could say you were a lonely teen looking for friends, when in actual fact you might be 20 something, have a wife and a couple of kids. In those situations you would be classed as being a fake because you would be none of the things you had claimed to be. But it can go further than that. You could actually be mostly honest about yourself, tell people details about you, but you could embellish the truth slightly to make yourself look more attractive than you really are. does that then make you a fake?
harp. I like your example. I don't come across those kind of people too often though, but hey. ya know.
..And to take this further. I am actually going to claim that if you choose to be a different personality online from real life, as long as there is no mix-up and you are not hurting someone in your real life, there's nothing wrong with that. If I want to be a woman online I can be one, if I get something out of that, that's fine. People here don't have to be the same personality or with the same lives that they really lead. After all this is a place to escape from the more stressful parts of life, if being someone who you are not online is a stress relief, that's fine. Of course this applies as long as:
a. You're not hurting someone in real life by your personality online (getting close with someone online while you have someone in real life for instance) or
b. You have no intention of actually making real life friends from the online web site. If so, at least you better brief them on the real situation before you meet up with them and such.
I don't really want anyone here, except my proven close friends, to know my name, phone number, address, place of work, job title etc. It's none of other people's business, quite frankly. My online image is pretty close to my real life though (previous post in this topic aside, but it was meant super sarcastically), but I see nothing wrong with pretending otherwise. There are seriously more important things to worry about than whether mr_x_Online is 15 or 18, lives in Colorado or the UK.
Cheers

Babygirl I read your profile and you made it clear where you stand however, do you really hope to find a good bloke on the internet, what's up with the real world.
Harp, you mean like if you drugged someone then tried to stabb them?
ooooh yeh, while performing some weird and wonderful indian ritual?
What's it matter if someone is real or fake? As long as they'renot hurting their home life, then let them do whatever they want, right? Or...if you hurt someone else in the process. I'm a real person, I am who I am. I don't act much differently than I do offline. No need to, I think, since I'm comfortable with who I am. But hey, I can see why it might be fun to pretend to be someone completely different. Hmm...and Wildebrew and Jared...you guys are disturbed with your stories of the South. Luckily for you Jared, I'm not qutie that redneck. :)
Well, let's see. My real identity is Mrs. Astriana Becklesburg the twelfth. I have four children, one strait boy and one strait girl, one gay boy and one gay girl. They all attend Harvard, have pet penguins and drive VW Bugs. I have been married three times, once to a baker, who made me fat, once to a fittness coach who made me skinny, and once to an artist who couldn't bring in a dime and starved me to death. Yep, that's right, I'm a ghost. I live in Milwalkey Florida in Japan, and I have bright green hair, a pet beever named sellery and I work as a combination hair dresser and sheff. Who minds a little hair in their food, it adds protein after all. I'm 45 years old and I am currently debating getting a sex change. I have the words to every song ever written or performed by the Greatful Dead tattooed on my body. I enjoy breeding porckupines, baking little children's sneakers and sandels into various fruit pies, and attending nudest conventions. I'm looking for someone with out-landishly brightly colored hair, at least six children, and who enjoys roast house cat and fried hampster.

Yogi, SugarBaby, SingleBabyGirl seemed to be suggesting that my opening post to this thread was a little on the defensive side so I was merely doing my best to put my point across to her a little more clearly. I guess really what I was saying was how do we know that she is what she says she is. It almost sounds as though she wants everybody to come on here and start bitching about everybody else while she sits on her own self-made pedistall. She says in her opening post that she is truthful and has nothing to hide but, why should we believe that that is any more or less true than anything that anybody else says on here. All I said was that she, or indeed anybody I have spoken too on here, could be a killer or something. What that has to do with drugs and indian rituals I really don't know! lol. I do remember recently reading here on these very boards about something of a similar ilk, could it be that that you guy's are aluding too? I'll have to go and refresh my memory of the facts if that's the case.
Actually that in itself does raise an interesting question doesn't it? Because from my memory of that topic the user was suggesting that a story involving a stabbing or something may actually be connected to a user on this very sight. So how do we know that any one of us haven't spoken with that user without actually knowing that we've done it? SBG does have a point there with regard to people being fake because I'm sure that person is hardly likely to stand up and anounce the fact if they really are a member of this site. It just goes to prove my point though, trust nobody. That's the safe bet.
I agree with some of the posts on this board. This is, after all, the internet, and all we have is the written word of people, so its really up to you to believe what people tell you. no one really knows if people are telling the truth unless they've met the person or something like that, so we just have to take people at their word.
I'd just like to point out I'm sitting next to Wildebrew right now. He showers more like once every year and a half not two years.
Yes, I can affirm that...
Aah thank you my runas. I did shower especially for you ;) last year.
Yes. I also agree with most of what others said here. My advice is, just be careful if you feel concerned about anything or anyone you talk to on line. Every single person whether online or in reality, would never wish to talk about themselves being fakes or anything that is negative and most of the real fakes have some kind of personality problems anyway, so you would never be able to get much out of them. Just use your own mind as much as possible as well, to determin things you aren't sure of, because sometimes, it can be the only way. If you ever get hurt by someone, which I never wish for you to happen, try to be the best friend to yourself when dealing with it all if you have no one else to support you. Hope this helps.
