I guess the catfish thread just reminded me that there are definite reasons to keep your really personal stuff private, definitely one of the reasons why I changed my name username haha, and that wasn't even that revealing haha
That catfish thread... The scariest part is definitely that it went on for so long. I'm totally realz! I'm way too lazy to stick with a fake persona for so long. I guess I should post more HDBD pics. I'm definitely not a "hot chick" so I should be safe from anyone stealing them.

The July14 thing blew my mind. I read the entire thing. I just find it so incredibly odd that someone would take so much time out of their life and do that. It doesn't scare me so much as makes me feel really sorry for that person. That's really, really sad. I mean, she did that for over a year.
FWIW, I don't think Crash is a AE, I think she can come off a little cold but I don't see her as making stuff up, and it's not like she ever argues back or really makes friends with any of us and the usual AE has "friends" and usually a lot of drama surrounding their personal life.

This is exactly how I feel as well. I don't do HDBD pics because I have been super self conscious about my pregant body. I haven't even looked pregnant until about a week ago because I have this B belly going on. This Week I will have to show you ladies my belly!
I guess I see feeling betrayed, but it's the interwebz..loads of cray cray out there. You never really know our BMB could be chocked full of catfish. I think most of you lemony-harpie peesh bishes are real..I have suspected a few fishes in the past.
I'm about 9 pages into the catfish thread and I'm bored. I kind of feel sorry for the catfish- I mean who has the time and energy for that? She really must not have any sort of life at all. I guess I would feel sort of betrayed if I found out one of my reg harpy whore knights was fake, but like other people said- it's the internet- you have to expect it to some degree.
I was wondering why FFFC was still going on! Now I see (and a read a few pages) I never even thought of this as a possibility!?! Scary as crap. I know this isn't private by any means but who has that kind of time?
I kinda had to eyeroll the girls demanding the ability to go back and delete old photos on the catfish thread. Um hello, it's not like the bump has ever been private. Anyone can see what you post. Why does the fake bmb member all of a sudden make people paranoid of that.
I'm with @kristy774. I in no way think that crash is a catfish. Do I think she can be unnecessarily mean? Yes! But she posts randomly and hasn't bothered to make friends. I have my suspicions on who could be a catfish around here. My mind works that way and I'm always looking for red flags or things that don't add up. Anywho, I'm going to prove I'm not a catfish because this shit has me paranoid now.
Glad I wasn't the only one to suspect the girl who called her out was actually the girl who thought her up! Seemed a bit too easy. Although they claim she's one of many and legit. Finding the live human whose pix were used? Computerz hurt my brain sometimes. Like Facebook and all its layers of private/ public settings that have turned on a dime and invasive advertising and commercializing. No thanks. (Says the real person without Facebook acct)
Ummm... whaaaa? i never went back to read after page 16 when i backed out, but now i have GOT to go finish reading that thread now!!!
@hidingangel82 I wanted to go back and read it better because I like skipped over a bunch because I was mobile and so I went back to look and the whole thing seems to be gone
My goodness, looks like I gave up on reading the catfish thread too early! Only made it a few pages in before my phone got super low on battery (exclusive mobile bumper here--hopefully helps explain why I never post HDBD photos! That and I just feel like a whale.....).
I agree with pp, I'm too lazy to even contemplate making all that up and keeping track! Sad that someone felt the need to do so.
@Maelara & @Kristy774 Good points, and I want to apologize to everyone if I came off as being a jerk. Reading back, I feel like I did.
I think sometimes I'm just thrown off by her unnecessary comments. The recent cord entanglement thread comes to mind. Such is life & the internet though. Just because I don't like someone's opinions doesn't make them fake, or give me the right to call them out.
...Back to being an insomniac & painting my nails @ 5:57 AM. Ugh!

I read the whole thing last night. That was a lo of crazy in one thread. I have no idea who those people are, but I think there was something else off about it all.
Is it horrible of me to not be surprised it happened?

I've been avoiding this thread like the plague because I thought y'all were still talking about swallowing and my nauseated self just couldn't stand it. Then I discover what was *really* going on here. I'm going to have to read this catfish thread for myself now. Maybe tomorrow.
And I'm also going kinda crazy trying to figure out who is the suspected N14 "catfish"...
Hint: part of the suspected name may or may not have been mentioned on page 5 - 12 posts down

I saw that, then saw the good reason to not think that. Hmm.
Yea I'm with you. I think some people are just like that & it can easily get mistaken for something else. Kinda like the good ol' resting bitch face.
I don't want to call anyone out because I would feel like such a bitch if I were wrong so I don't want to mention any names.
The person I suspect posted that she lost her baby a few months ago. She received a lot of support from everyone and I even added her to the angel baby thread. She then came back claiming to still be pregnant with no mention of her loss story. Her post history doesn't match up. BUT like I said, I would feel like such a bitch if she really lost her baby and I'm saying she is a catfish. She just raises major red flags to me.

Don't feel like a jerk! She can still be an asshole a lot of the time.
