I'm a firm believer in "Don't believe everything you read". Someone asked me lately about something another member IM'd me about and after I forwarded him the reply, he came back with "Are you serious". I said, "yup...that's what he said.....why would I alter it....besides, I don't think you can...can you?"

It got me thinking.....and I decided to try it! Know what I got? Check out what I can make it look like someone IM'd me;






Anyone who knows Shane would KNOW that was a fabrication.......Shane would NEVER be gay......as for the cross dressing......I think that depends on how drunk he is and if Jen leaves her lingerie out! LOL! Sorry! Just kidding Shane!

The point is....if I can do that and tell you he IM'd that to me, what other deviltry can you do and blame on another person?

General Scarlett, is there a way to prove if another person is lying when they say "So-and-so said this in an IM?" Do the admins have access to a person's IM so they can prove if another member is harassing you or threatening you? I know in the past members have been warned for that sort of behavior, but was it the word of the complaining party...or were you able to access their mailbox and prove that what they forwarded to you was legit?

If the only evidence is what the person in question sends you.....that's a problem!
