How to spot fake stories here

Let me explain, these stories are created for traffic and to keep you comenting with hope it gee rates lots of comments

1. The fake post is made then the same person uses multiple accounts to quote and write responses on the post

2. The subject or topic is always so incredible like the "he blocked me for no reason thread " "how I nearly lost my job for roasting my bosses wife " "or how I want to date two women while married " 'is she cheating ?" The topics are always sensational and unrealistic

3. These posts are made by people I can't mention here because it attracts a ban but trust me I know what I am saying . These posts are to keep the homepage busy

4. Sometimes even with two comments these posts are moved to homepage because more and more people are beginning to realize these are fake posts and don't comment as often so sometimes they can't wait and move it to front page

5. Before they used to start with "I created this account today for privacy " or "this is my first time here but I really need you guys advise.

6. Sometimes it's even members who are lonely sad and unhappy people and crave attention that create these fake post not always the unmentionables.

7. Learn not to waste your time and energy on these topics just browse and move on .

8. I personally know a former unmentionable who is also a very old member here that names a certain unmentionable snake addict as chief culprit in creating these posts

9. Lastly want to know fake posts ? The old members never comment on them, they are always new accounts commenting. Why? Because all the old members have one unmentionable or the other who is a close friend and have confided in them that these posts are fake

10. Another trending fake story is the "should I take the 20k job or travel to canada posts grin these are fake 99% of the time. Or should I use the 2 million in my account to relocate abroad or stay in Nigeria" fake posts !!

Nice write up. I have called out some posts here as fake before. But whether fake or real,these things do happen. So if you have time to comment,do and read others comments just for the fun of it.
Nairaland post shouldn't be taken so seriously, besides you sound offended. Real or fake, they're not hurting anybody,so chill. Live and let's live.
