    Pretty much everything Liz just said is the same for me. I have a really hard time believing people unless I can see proof and whatnot. EVERYBODY IS A LIAR

    Benefit of the doubt unless it seems like they are BSing. From there, I just wait and see how things go and make my decision about how honest they are. Basically, if I notice inconsistencies and such then I will know that they lied.

    I use common sense, if someone had told me TTR had gone prison for molesting some poor innocent girl I might well have believed it since his attitude on here certainly provides enough "believable evidence" of a personality capable of such acts though I'd still ask for proof from a news net. (sorry TTR for using you as an example, I know you're different offline who isn't?) However if someone told me Psychotic killed 20 walri with only a ring pull and a stick of chewing gum I'd lmao it's a matter of common sense.

    Yeah man only twenty? He'd kill that many before he takes his morning skullskullskullskull. If killing them, instead of bedding them, was his thing.

    Anyway I dunno. I tend to believe or disbelieve on a case-by-case basis, depending on how well I know someone, my past experiences with them, their general personality, and so forth. For instance, I believe what DK says because I think he is a classy man and I just don't get the vibe that he'd skullskullskullskullskullskullskullskull about things. On the other hand there are people who I trust about very.

    If my first impression of someone is that they seem to be fairly sound then I will usually trust them pretty easily, but if that trust ever gets broken it doesn't come back. No point smurfing around really, don't have place for worthless people in life!

    And I know your pain Typhoon bro people never believe me when I tell them I'm black on the internet either. I can say whatever but no one listens. It's harsh really, trust me if I pulled my skullskullskullskull out this whole room would get dark.

    I don't really tell people that I'm black, but sometimes when they discover it during one of my rare appearances they are a little surprised.

    As far as 'trusting things on the internet', it all depends on the nature and source of the information. I'm the kind of guy who likes to research things, kind of a Google fiend. If something is true and 'Googleable', there will usually be multiple reputable sources reporting the information. Or at least a few sites refuting it. Though some things ain't exactly 'Googleable'.

    Lol, serious DK, it's not THAT serious...XD...besides, off the internet would get you creditability for actions like that. Although, the police would probably kick your ass...:rolleyes2

    yet you both date internet people. Doesn't that require trust that someone's not going to drag you off to a cave in the woods and rape and kill you? Or do you just not care if that happens?

    Tbh, I didn't believe a lot of what Bert said until I saw it for myself.

    I TRUSTED him not to "rape me and drag me off in the woods", but whether or not I took the things he talked to me about with a grain of salt is a whole different story.

    I think you don't get what me and Shay meant by that. We're just skeptical, doesn't mean we're like OMG I DON'T TRUST ANYTHING AT ALL IF YOU SAY YOU HAVE HAIR YOU MIGHT REALLY BE BALD.
