a certain person is always going on the freebies thread and making up all kinds of stories to try and get some freebies!

I have only just noticed, did a search on this person and found out that they mainly go on there, and one other thread, and this is suppose to be a site for parents to use the WHOLE site, not just the same topics!

And they only just joined last month!

(now i feel like i am just being bitchy!!!)

I tend to only lurk on this forum and the student parent one... But I can understand your gripe, it is a little rude.

how do you know she is making up stories?

yes it is a little ...not rude,...ooh i cant think of the word....well rude then.

but it is up to the person offering the goods to decide whether to give them to the said poster or not.

i am only saying is it unfair that the same person always seems to pop up in the freebies section asking for freebies!

I know its up to the person offering the goods, but sometimes, it might be nice to let someone else have a turn

Making up stories to get free stuff would not be nice but aren't you going a little far with the comment above? There's no rule obliging users to post on any topics other than those they choose.

How do you know the stories are made up?

I didn't know there was a freebies section!
I keep finding new things on here.

if people want to give free stuff away. then fine.

if someone is lying, and how do you know they are? then they are either:

desperate and ashamed and need stuff

or

want to get as much stuff as they can and sell it on

if you think someone is abusing the board, then email MNHQ
