Fakers

I like engaging in fantasy and whatnot, but it's so frustrating when I get to chatting to people here who are full of it. It's one thing to do a fantasy RP. It's another to pass off clear nonsense as reality then get pissed when I call you out on it. No real point in this post. Just a rant/vent session. I'm well aware nobody is who or what they say they are on the internet

I feel like it's fairly easy to tell when someone is making stuff up on this site. Though directly calling it out is too much trouble than it's worth really

You know what they say about the internet:

1. Every man on there is a man.
2. Every woman is actually a man.
3. Anyone under 13 is the FBI.

:lol:

I can say with certainty that there are at least six female users on this site I am dead certain are really women. The others... :lol:

Why, cause most of the "females" with the most perverse story are not actually one?

Play nicely folks.

Am I the only one who didn't understand that last post?

Of course not. I'm still trying to digest it 12 hours later.

A perfect example of a faker is the Instagram account ashley.bound who has people hook, line, and sinker on the following claims.
  • That she (Ashley) and Victoria are sisters; they resemble each other as much as Queen Elizabeth II resembled Malcolm X.
  • They claim be in medical school for cardiology and neurology at Kent State, which has no true medical school on any of its 8 campuses nor a partnership with any school for such a thing.
  • They claim to be in a program which provides poor students with better housing; no such program exists.
  • They claim to be born and raised in the U.S. of Spanish ancestry, yet their website sometimes defaults to Brazilian reals, their grammar is on par with a native romance language speaker with a poor grasp of English or even just using a translator.
With time, I could list more.
