How much do you trust people on Forums?

[Xander]

It really depends what you mean by "trust", I mean I think there's different things, I would trust people with some stuff too easily (like telling them things maybe...) but then trusting them in ways like believing whether they tell the truth.... well who knows if any of us are telling the truth? I'd be more likely to say yeah I believe them, until I have a reason not to but I still wouldn't take most people TOO seriously.

To show how much I trust y'all, I'm gonna give out my address: Norway street 54b, Coldtown, Norway.

[LunarWeaver]

Some I do, and some I don't. I guess it depends on if the friendship is pretty good or just casual or if we aren't friends at all. If we're pretty good friends, sure, I trust them.

[McLovin']

I trust people overall.

[oddler]

Trust is something best left to the foolish.

[blackmage_nuke]

As much as they trust me

[Yuffie The Failure]

I trust noone including myself ;[

[Ashley Schovitz]

Sionce I really don't know anything about you all except for your usernames I trust none of you.

[Jessweeee♪]

That's pretty interesting o.O

It must have been pretty funny watching everyone use male pronouns. I also got one of those PMs, I thought it was funny :P

[Doomie]

I trust them enough to give them my credit card number.

Also, being "popular" on the internet usually means that you're unpopular in real life.

I wonder what percentage of people who actually got the warnings found them funny.

I did, it was a fun way for him to go out. Probably the funniest and best thing he ever did, in my opinion. Also, the PMs had enough telltale signs (random caps in the middle of sentences, to name one) that I was able to notice the illegitimacy evident within them without even being able to see that the sender's name was not boldly italicized. But that's enough out of me.

I usually trust people pretty well, because I don't put much stock in them, to be honest. They're just people who are my friends. I've never met anyone from the internet, and if I were to I'd seek lots of identity confirmation beforehand.

[Elite Lord Sigma]

At first, I don't trust people online that I meet. Until I learn about them an know them well, my lips are sealed on any personal information. However, I think most of the people here are trustworthy, and wouldn't take advantage of clueless people.

[Miss_Lulu]

Trust is a very big issue with me. I dont trust people very easily. Ecspecially online, becos you never know if someone is lieing or not. There is only one person that I have met online (by online I mean this site and all of the others I go to) that I completely trust.
I have varying degress of trust. Like some of the people I talk to on here, they are great friends, but when it comes to meeting them in real life, I have to you stop and think "Now what if this is really some 60 yr. old man?"
It would be creepy. =S

I don't see why Devil Man's banning is trying to be justified. There's different levels of tollerance on different forums. This one has a good one but there are boundaries no matter how popular you are. I for one was -obscenely- sad when I thought I was going to be banned, that's not something I want to see when I first wake up and sign online.

Other than that, I trust a few people from the forum, mostly the one's I talk to more than others, meaning the people that go to #eoff and are on the forum have a slightly higher level of trust with me. With forums people can sit back and think of what they write, real time it's a toss up.

[Madame Adequate]

I take everything with a grain of salt, and that's doubly true on the internet.

As you all know, Devil Man has been banned for "his" joke final warnings on Friday. Alot of people have found the banning to be unfair and the warnings to be pretty funny.

I wonder what percentage of people who actually got the warnings found them funny.

I was roffling at mine, after the first four seconds of "WTF-ness". I have no idea why s/he was banned for it. Especially when it was a staff prank that backfired on them! They just don't like to be one-upped.

I generally trust people. I've reason not to, but I don't like not to. But I'll weigh it up based on individuals, and what they're actually saying. I'd believe some people if they said they were going to play Carnegie Hall. I wouldn't believe others if they said they were drinking a Pepsi.

Also, being "popular" on the internet usually means that you're unpopular in real life.

Whilst I'm wont to question this logical disconnect, I'm just going to say I'm popular in neither place, and ask what you make of that.
