Proof.
I've read a lot of profiles, and can pretty well tell real, from bull-shit. Curious as to how others prove thier profiles are genuine, aside from actually being present in the "flesh"? (Flesh. Ha, ha. A little perveman lingo there). What was the topic now? Oh ya, proof. Now I know how I pretty much prove to others my profile is all true ( this by private message only) but again, how do others know you're not just spewing lines of crap?

Re: Proof.
Eh, I don't think of the profiles as bullshit, as much as I think of it as marketing.

Re: Proof.
I figure it's not much different than running an ad to sell a used car or household appliance. People are just kinda selling themselves,

Re: Proof.
The only proof you need to know...
100% proof is the minimum strength of rum that, when mixed with gunpowder, would still allow it to ignite. This was found to be 57.15% abv (= 100% proof) and so to calculate the proof of booze you simply multiply alcohol by volume by 7/4.

I declare this srting over. (Am I allowed to do that?)

Re: Proof.
If my peofile is not enough proof (and for some it isn't) and they still think I'm blowing smoke, I invite them to contact me (as I have said) and i will prove everthing I said in my profile. But then perveman your not my type so you'll never know.
But ladies if you do need to know check me out.

Re: Proof.
I am what I am.I say what's on my mind.I never worry if people believe me. Those who are important to me know am as real as you can get. As for knowing if others are real,there are to many ways to tell. I will say that when you lie it eventually shines through. Its hard to lie and keep it up.Liars tend to forget what they say at some point.

Re: Proof.
Had one member a while back, inquire as to why, I basically "repeat" all the time, what I say. Trying to be considerate, I mearly wrote back, to let them know, that if I were to alter, or put a different spin, regarding whats in my profile, them I'd appear to be dis-ingenuose(sp), I can't do that. I too am who I say I am. Period.
