Maybe I'm Just Paranoid, but........

[HallowedGround5]

Has anyone else noticed that several younger/very attractive girls have been joining, in the past few weeks? You can see this, if you look in the Community Albums. Like I said - maybe I'm just paranoid; but, I'm wondering if anyone else has noticed and is feeling suspicious that the profiles could be fake. I know there was one similar profile that turned-out to be fake, recently. I can't remember the person's name. Maybe someone who reads this thread will remember more. One never knows, these days. Hahaha.

75% are probably fake. That's the internet.

Plenty of attractive women attend gatherings such as NEST and we can be sure that they are real.

If somebody talks a good talk and posts lovely photos, but never appears in person, it is wise to be suspicious.

There are no women on the internet, silly.

You really have two choices.

You can either propose to meet them in person, (after a long, long, long, long, loooooooong period of getting to know each other, accumulating trust and other such things) or you can settle with the fact that they may not be who they say they are. The internet is a very tricky place. Aside from meeting them in person, there aren't too many ways to actually be sure that they are who they say they are. (Well, aside from stuff like their Facebook/Twitter/Google+ accounts and such. It's pretty easy to tell if those are fake.)

Or, well, you have the third option of just not talking to strangers on the internet. Buuuuut, given the setting of this discussion, I would say that that's kind of an unreasonable option. xP

I can offset all the pretty ladies, unfortunately. My ugly to the bone face saves me a fortune in Halloween masks/make-up and birth control! Doesn't Google have a picture scanning application that should tell if the pics are taken from another website?

Yes, it does. Go to this page first:

http://www.google.com/imghp?hl=en&tab=wi

Then click on the little camera at the right end of the address window. It will give you the choice of giving the URL of an image or uploading an image from your own computer. It will then serch for copies of that image on the web. I just tried it with the image below. Google Image Search found it along with 8 similar images, identifying the woman correctly as Amanda Beard.

Hmmm...Agreed. Everyone is left footed while the rest have lost their feet during the age of impressionism. In fact, some of us have no armpits and bellybuttons. You know, too many hullabaloo/s. What are we all doing here, anyway? I did drawings. (So do I really care for those who have missing nostrils nowadays? )

I talk a good talk and never appear at gatherings...

I suppose it depends on how you interact with people here but...does it really matter?

We're all just forum handles.

Nope, it's all guys on here. I am, in fact, a 6 foot 7 fat hairy tattooed 57 year old man. I just pretend to be a girl for funsies...
