I namechanged after posting a link to a painting my DP had done of me after realising I could be identified in RL. The same could not be said if I'd painted anyone,though

nappyaddict - I am talking more about posters who start several threads all about the same subject in different forums but asking for the same advice but then ignoring it and posting more threads under the same username asking the same thing again!.

what is all this then, shades of James Bond?! Honestly I wouldn't notice if someone gave me totally contradictory information over and over. I'm sure I wouldn't register it.

The Queen HRH or Queen the rock group, alternating between looking like Freddie one night and Brian the next?

nappyaddict the thread was the crying dh thread.

nappyaddict · 12/08/2008 16:22

i have noticed a few similar threads on here recently but i just thought it was because someone will read one thread and it will spark off a similar question in their head so then they post a thread about that and so on. perhaps i am being naive.

beanieb · 12/08/2008 15:05

I've not caught anyone but are there people who come on here and post variations of the same thing over and over to get attention and am I the only one not in on the secret because I have noticed lately that I am having to repeat advice over and ovr and over again to wither the same poster or different ones who are posting similar things

charchargabor · 11/08/2008 14:17

llareggub I've had emails off the same person I think, beginning with s, a few days ago. I was a bit because cshe hadn't actually posted on my thread. I did a search and threw up the same posts you did. Weird, eh?

nappyaddict · 11/08/2008 12:58

oh possibly. there's too many to keep up with is HD still around?

tiredemma · 11/08/2008 08:23

Nappyaddit- I think that you may be getting CK mixed up with another predator man on here HD.

PastYourBedtime · 11/08/2008 00:51

NA, afaik she has no idea The times I met him he talked openly about her and didn't hide the fact that he didn't believe in monogamy.

handlemecarefully · 11/08/2008 00:01

I am certainly guilty of not correcting some posters impressions of me (where those were more flattering than reality)...

Doubt there is much lying on Mn. Apart from a few inadequate individuals, frankly who could be bothered? Subterfuge requires effort!

Gingerbear · 10/08/2008 23:53

what about the battered wife in Japan?
total fabrication IIRC

nappyaddict · 10/08/2008 23:43

hmmm i thought his wife did find out but that could be my memory deceiving me.

MNHQ2 · 10/08/2008 18:20

Maybe some people don't feel that internet forums, not being real life, require honesty all the time. It's not like real friends you are not telling the truth to, so what should it matter?

(Obviously nasty trolling such as pretending about premature babies etc excluded from above comment)

I am not fictional character from Poldark. But I do name change fairly frequently. It's just nice.

I don't have a lot of excitment in my life.
