---|---|
an online community that had fake users, not scammers or anything like that, just fake accounts to make the community look more active than it actually is to encourage people to join.

I believe a large number of dating sites and online communities have fake profiles to boost their perceived popularity, especially when they are starting up. It sucks but its business.

You know I often wondered that about this site. I mean just look at the home page, you see testimonials from these users that you never see on the forums..........

However, just dead profiles to build up membership is lame.

However, just dead profiles to build up membership is lame. Not dead, I was thinking more along the lines of maybe a handful of fake accounts that are actually the same person, just pretending to be different people to make a site look active. Maybe even some paid accounts. |

Maybe even some paid accounts. just like hotornot.com ![]() members that are active can email you but if your not a member you can't hit them back, almost makes you wannna pay the 19.99$ or whatever |

I find that and interesting habit but it is old as time that people pretend to be someone they are not so that they would do it on line does not surprize me. I have a hard time just keeping up being one person so I don't know where they get the energy.
