Your opinion on FAKIES

Now i know that soon to be brides used to find it annoying that venders would pose as brides on the BHB board...

Now i am curious do you care that a fake person comes on the NWR board? You know someone that isn't who they say they are? There have definately been some...
Or do you not care?

i find it bizarre, but really don't care...

i haven't been able to spot any outside of those who promote a vendor

i guess it really annoys me...I feel that, although i haven't met most of you, i 'know' you. And when i feel that someone is fake is coming on here...it makes me feel weirded out.

Yes i know 'this is a public chatroom'
but i just find it odd when a fakie finds there way here...a wedding website...unless it is under false pretenses...And this bugs me

Me either, but I find it funny whenever any vendors pose as fakes, because it is SO obvious.

As for others, I think I would find it sad that people wanted to put the effort into something so lame.

Once you guys point them out - like a vendor on BHB - it seems so obvious!! But I can never figure it out...
Feel free to FM those of us who are detectively-challenged!

Well they do that to get you to be convinced that the vender is great and to go use them..
We would believe a fellow brides opinion over a venders opinion...so if they pretend to be a bride...they can get more business!

however, it usually back-fires and no bride will use that vendors business if they try a stunt like that. imo, fake brides are somewhat understandable, but fake posters on nwr/ot or any other board on here is just weird. why would you even have to fake it? if you are posting on a non-wedding related board, why do you want to fake being a bride or a woman or man, whatever...its just odd.

I just think that people who are fakies on NWR must have very pathetic lives. Vendors posing as brides on BHB at least have a 'good' reason for doing so, but someone pretending on here must really be lacking for fun in their lives...I feel bad for them
