Fake User Awareness Thread

I am not going to go to any of those porn sites. Time is extremely limited and it will not be wasted browsing another porn site when there is a lot to do here.

Would it be possible to enlarge your team with members whom you can trust to distribute the work onto more shoulders? (cc: @ZTHorse)

@noah28's findings appear to be helpful to sieve out people who try to trick others members with lies (even though there is theoretically a tiny chance that a photo that can be found elsewhere on the web does still show the person who registered here).

I also agree with his explanation that using someone else's portrait or other identifiable body part in this forum poses a risk to the person in the photo and is probably a violation of their rights. It would be decent if Zooville would protect these people when the problem is pointed out, even if Zooville can't be held accountable for what a user does with someone else's images.

If that's not possible, then I would suggest to add a disclaimer at the top of the site that urges readers to assume that none of the persons in posted images have any connections to this site and that claims to the contrary should be ignored. For example, 4chan.org/b/ has the disclaimer "The stories and information posted here are artistic works of fiction and falsehood. Only a fool would take anything posted here as fact." at the top of each page.

You can't fix stupid. Everyone should know those pics were bait.
 
You dont have to go to any porn sites, all the images are attached. You can clearly see in the attached images it's all the same person, in the same outfit, in the same shoot, and they're claiming to be them.

@FloofyNewfie @ZTHorse am I crazy or are you seeing what I'm seeing??

Profile picture. All you are comparing is the profile picture that this person did not explicitly claim like the other shit he or she posted.

It's kind of the site moderators job to protect stupid people though. Catfishes shouldn't be tolerated regardless of whether its obvious "bait" or not. The person above claimed that photos were of them, when they weren't... that should be the end of discussion, banned. Noah is right and Oldman is frankly just being intellectually dishonest with his comments.
 
Noah is right cause there were much more than 1 fake pic on profile. I saw at least 5 with 4 of them posted for all to see.

Explain "intellectually dishonest".

Saying the evidence presented isn’t enough when the person explicitly states that the pictures are theirs. The person in their profile picture is clearly the same person as their other posts, including being in the same album on other websites. Just because they didn’t say their profile picture isn’t them doesn’t mean you can’t use logic. Just being honest ?‍♀️

Yeah but you got to be fair, behaviour on other websites does not violate the rules here. As long as there are no rules broken here, i see no reason to punish this
 
I can appreciate the profile pic is fake.... But, when you post pics in the site...several for that matter which are fake, this is obviously an issue for all to consider.

And we are supposed to ban people on a hunch. I wonder how many times over you would have been banned had that been true. You did miss the point though, let me clarify. If you or anyone else wants someone banned, bring clear proof. It is not our job to investigate a fake, we have enough things to worry about. Just being honest ?‍♂️

There's no "hunch" though, I'm insure of whether we are seeing two completely different images because the person very clearly says that those images are of them, and evidence is provided that they aren't. Also attacking me for being a woman by comparing it to a person publically shown to be stealing photos is literally why there's no women on this site, or why the women who were here never stay long, refrain from doing so in the future before you look more stupid.

My existence on this forum is not based on looking for a human partner. I very rarely care whether I am talking to a woman, a man or a sentient teapot.
Can someone explain to me why we care whether someone is using a fake profile picture or pretends to be a particular gender?
There already is this thread that exposes fake profiles in case someone finds this information useful. On top of that anyone can use the ignore button to seemingly get rid of inconvenient users.
Hey, you think you can hook me up with that sentient teapot you mentioned? I think we'd probably get along well - The idea of deep philosophical discussions over a cuppa really turns my crank, doncha know...

Well, I've always maintained that stupid should be AT LEAST painful, if not outright fatal... If you can arrange to turn the agonizer up a few notches, there might be an increase in the average intellect around here.
 
This happened to me with xxroughxx... Everything I wanted and then ghosted..I was pretty devastated tbh but very naive. I'm about ready to give up

I'm sorry that happened to you. That has to be rough. No, do not give up.

For that to work, you need to be dealing with people at least smart enough to link their stupidity to that agonizer being turned up.
For quite a few here, that just won't happen.

You are going to stop right fucking there. Stop reaching for shit that is not there because I never said a god damn thing about you being a woman or whatever the hell you want to call yourself or any other bullshit.

That person did not very clearly claim those pics or I would have banned them. I looked much further than what I should have. To be as cear as possible, the person has to say: this picture (a) is me. Someone posts "this exact picture (a) is from the internet (proof)". NOT Similar, NOT "the picture is somewhere in there", ABSOLUTE proof.

Finally, I am absolutely fucking done explaining myself or anything I do to you as you have shown clear comprehension problems and making shit up that I supposedly have said.

- @Oldman did not "attack [you] for being a woman." That is a terrible accusation to any mod. No mod on this site would do that.
- Accusing him of being the reason for your alleged shortage of women? That is a senseless accusation. He certainly doesn't have to put up with that.
 
I have a couple of question out of curiosity. :D

1. How many of the fake profiles so far claimed to be male users and were not?
2. How many of the fake profiles were discovered through other means than someone trying to date/watch the fake user have sex with an animal?

I have reported a few guys. I do feel as though it is appearing that more "fake women" are reported because there are more threads (and more active threads) in the "ladies show you bits" areas. It would be much easier for someone to try and take advantage of the thirsty ass dudes in all those threads vs the "show your dick" threads which are either heavily responded to by gay men or a handful of women here. Just my thoughts

Gay men wanting to meet gay men have gay dating sites and there is no lack of real chances. No need to hunt in here.

Offering as male animal owners might be a thing though...
 
and there is no lack of real chances.
Well that's bullshit. Every time I've tried a dating site, and I've tried just about all of them, it takes only a couple of days run out of prospects, and a year to even get a conversation let alone a date. And I'm in a major population center.
 
Not an area I am familiar with on either aspect, but I can see how that would be probable. Thanks :)
Well, I was curious some years ago and signed up a free site. I still have the account with "I am not looking anymore, thank you. No real, no cam, no meeting" written in Big, Friendly letters in my profile.
I still get invitations and winks every week...
I mean, I do not mind those wanting some conversation, that is fun. But not for sex anymore, thanks. Which proves This is not the only site with members failing at reading comprehension ?
 
Ok, so I believe I came across another one:

@Clarreknine messaged me o out my dog and we quickly took it to another chat app. On that app ‘she’ immediately began asking for personal content and then sent an unsolicited picture she claimed was herself. The picture was found on tineye originally posted in 2010. She denied it and said someone stole her photo and shared it. When I asked her to clarify because I thought she was fake she ended conversation.
So, while I can’t be 100%, it seems highly probably that this is a fake account. Evidence posted below:
clarreknine is fake as fuck. That dipshit messaged me about a year ago and within 2 messages got themselves ghosted and set to ignore.
