| Fake Pics Posted: 10/29/2007 10:05:03 AM | it's amazing how many people have posted they're views here but have no pic's posted of themselves. all i would like to see is a clear pic that's not professional done and taken w/in an year
i don't think that's too much to ask right | |
|
| Fake Pics Posted: 10/29/2007 10:12:27 AM | 2b- I think the reason so many people in this thread don't have pics is that it is a year old, and many (most) of the original postees aren't swimming in the pond anymore.

| Fake Pics Posted: 10/29/2007 11:26:27 AM | Cooky ya might be on to something there! But I believe that there are mainly 3 reasons, why folks put up a photo;
1) They are trying to scamm someone to think this is who they are, to play a game or to trick a person in participating in what they believe another will want to be a part of.
2) They do not like themselves enough to portray an actual image of who they really are, or what they think they look like to others so they use a photo that is (blurry, dark, old, similiar) not very good to hide their faults of which they believe another will not accept. And hope that their personality will outshine there image of themselves. ...which does happen now and then. Add on- (NO PIC... they just do not have the techno stuff to put up a digtial pic).
3) These type folks are not ashamed at all, they know they have something worthwhile , either abit bold, unashamed, lives to be in the spotlight, likes to show off what they have, and who they are inside. Havin somewhat of a healthy esteem, they are not affraid to strike out and see what happens . Usually extroverted, these folks make the most of what is available, and enjoy life in all its glory, and beauty.
Just an opinion and nothing more...  | |

| Fake Pics Posted: 10/29/2007 11:33:19 AM | Good points Wreck!
Also 2be, welcome to the pond! Please also note that some of the forummers here have a tendency to bump up old threads and comment on them once in awhile, so it can be confusing.  | |

| Fake Pics Posted: 10/29/2007 11:49:44 AM |
actually miss w, i've been around here longer then you think i just add new pic's every week. I saw your join date as of 10/17, so you are reasonably new, unless you have been lurking for awhile. I lurked on the forums off and on for a year before I joined POF.
On topic: new pics every week are good, especially if they are real.  | |
|
| Fake Pics Posted: 10/29/2007 12:02:51 PM | | i last for about a month get tired then take off for a few months then come back on under new names. btw, once you delete your profile you can't rejoin under the same name. | |
|
| Fake Pics Posted: 10/29/2007 12:27:42 PM | | No. You can change it to your old name, though, once you have joined. | |
|
| Fake Pics Posted: 10/29/2007 7:05:36 PM | IS there anything that we cannot fake??? .....  | |
|
| Fake Pics Posted: 3/24/2008 3:51:59 PM | Yes a good heart and respect you cant fake them at least not for long. | |
|
| Fake Pics Posted: 3/24/2008 4:24:49 PM | | Dammit, I can't post fake pics, to me of the peeps in this pond already know me! | |
|
| Fake Pics Posted: 3/24/2008 5:35:56 PM | | Yes, I would have to beat you about the head and shoulders, then take out my shank. | |
|
| Fake Pics Posted: 3/24/2008 5:58:23 PM | You have a shank?  | |
|
| Fake Pics Posted: 3/24/2008 6:34:48 PM | ^^^Sheesh Pete, you've been gone awhile and have a lot to learn. Welcome back by the way. SSG, in all of her generous glory, has supplied shanks to some of the Poodles.
OT: I can't post fake pics either without creating another profile. I took my pics down last week and someone told me that he missed my mug.  | |
|
| Fake Pics Posted: 3/24/2008 6:38:27 PM | all my pics are fakes!!! I love foolin' all the menz that I'm a short old fat broad!!!!! | |
|
| Fake Pics Posted: 3/25/2008 12:11:23 AM | I'll admit it: my picture has been slightly altered.
But it IS me, and the photo is about two months old. | |
|
| Fake Pics Posted: 3/25/2008 5:39:16 PM | Crap, you don't actually have an arrow stuck through your head? Well then it's over between us.
You have a shank? Hell yes I have a shank. It's standard equipment. You just haven't tasted my shank, because you are a great guy Pete.
I might even give you your very own shank, I like you so much. | |
|
| Fake Pics Posted: 3/26/2008 11:26:16 AM | So then, how long do you talk with people that you get a whiff of untruthfulness?
How long do you stick with it when you think there's more to the story that you're not being told? | |
|
| Fake Pics Posted: 5/13/2008 9:21:22 AM | I must just be naive! I wouldn't dream of lying about my age, my height, my weight or using fake pics. Actually, that's not naivete...it's integrity!
I was on this site over a year ago and had posted current fotos as well as older ones (clearly marked!) 'cuz we ALL age. That's the beauty (no pun intended!) of growing older - time catches us with everybody. I think the older one gets the more what's inside your heart gets shown on your face. Do you agree? | |
|
| Fake Pics Posted: 5/14/2008 6:57:18 PM | | "time catches us with everybody" Oops! Freudian slip? SB time catches UP with everybody! | |
|
| Fake Pics Posted: 5/14/2008 7:16:33 PM | I like fake pics.... As long as they can reproduce it on the date. | |
|
| Fake Pics Posted: 7/10/2009 5:42:23 PM | I think I have less of a problem with people who use obvious fake pictures, like stars! how difficult is it really to distinguish Gwen Stefani, Madonna, Mariah Carey or Robert Redford, John Stamos, Hugh Jackman?
the real problems are the ones that use just better pics than themselves. there are plenty of sites and ways to get photos. what a shock you'll get when you see the real person!
and, I've heard many people, on this site and others, that most, like 75% or more, profiles are fake. that's bad too. | |
|
| Fake Pics Posted: 7/10/2009 5:46:54 PM | Yeah, I had a woman contact me the other day with pics in her profile which were obviously lifted from a magazine ad. The pixelation was a dead giveaway.
Go figure... I give up on trying to understand people. | |
|
| Fake Pics Posted: 7/11/2009 11:11:23 AM | | Fake pics, old pics ... it's all silly! | |
|
| Fake Pics Posted: 7/11/2009 11:57:24 AM | Wait.... Are you guys saying we were suppose to put are own pics on here?
That's just not right.... someone might recognize me when I meet them... | |
