Yeah, but don't forget that I'm not a very trusting person for reasons I would only divulge in a personal conversation. And secondly you can be everything you want on the internet. It doesn't say you're talking to the real person behind any sig.
As I said, going by what I see here, I like quite a few members here.
Lol. I feel like you think "the Internet" means AF. You can't really hide behind a signature if you're getting to know someone personally.
I will give an anoymous example
I know a person from AF, I'm friends with said person on fb, I'm friends with this person's parents on fb, I am friends with this person's spouse on facebook. I know where this person works, I know where this person lives. I know what this person does as hobbies. I even have seen enough of the surrounding area in pictures and videos to say I could probably find this person's favorite bar if I were to find myself in their area. At this point when someone starts sharing their private life with you, they can't hide behind a signature on the forum. When you start to get personal it's a lot harder to pretend to be someone you're not.
