This forum is not a dating site.
You can use it as such but it is not recommend.
We pay little attention to who is fake or not, in fact being fake is not against the rules.
There is no and there will be no verification of someone's gender and the only thing that can get you banned for being fake is when you claim stolen photos or break other rules.
If someone is asking you for money, report the post or the PM where it happens and they will be banned for breaking the no selling on the forum rules.
