Fake Brides.

Re: Fake Brides.

I never give any thought if someone is fake or not. If they are here to give sound advice and help and don't come to just cause trouble then I say the more the merrier.

Whether or not a bride posts a pic doesn't really matter. I never post any pics but thats because I'm either too lazy or can't get my hands on a scanner. Usually you can tell from a person's words if they are here for a legitimate reason or not : ).

Re: Fake Brides.

I never posted a pic because I don't have a digital camera, a scanner............ nothing!!! But after my wedding a couple of weeks ago, friends posted pics to prove that I AM REAL!!

Re: Fake Brides.

I hope that all regular on going posters are real & that most of the fake brides are realized & no longer on these boards. It really does bother me to think that people would lie about these things to entertain themselves. Maybe it because I am an honest person & I find it hard to believe someone would do that. I never would think someone is a fake bride because they don't post pics. I haven't posted personal pics because when ever I try I run into some technical problems with scanner, camera, or conputer(don't ask I have bad luck w/ my computer).

Re: Fake Brides.

I am with the who cares on this one. I mean really I guess people have nothing to do. I don't have time to track post and even if I did I wouldn't.

Sometimes I think some ladies think being a bride is like winning an emmy or something. Get over it.

I also think not everyone on here needs to be a bride. People can come on just to get ideas for when that time comes or get ideas for friends that they know that are current brides.

Re: Fake Brides.

Neva, some people could just like the lively discussions. Or they come b/c they like me Or they are trying to work up the nerves to ask to be a bucket

Anna, point me in the direction of your senseless thread so I can post on it

Re: Fake Brides.

I think most of us have been on here long enough that we can pretty much sniff out those 'fake' brides that are here mainly to use us for their own entertainment or to cause all sorts of conflict and friction on the boards.
I'm not really bothered by it, though I wonder why they wouldn't have better things to do than toy around with real women that they don't know.

Re: Fake Brides.

I never posted a pic, and I don't give out many personal details, but in fact, I am a real bride who is getting married next july.
I don't think anyone with a life would bother to post continuously on a wedding board if they really weren't getting married. I also think we might be taking this all a bit too seriously if we start to analyze who is fake and who isn't. If there are people here that aren't real brides to be/former brides, they have far more serious problems than us finding out that they're fake. It seems as though recently, the only 'fakes' have been vendors, or people posting for fun to cause comotion.
