Anecdotes & Trust in the Backroom

[Seamus Fermanagh]

There are 3 forms of prevarication. In increasing order of iniquity, they are:

lies

damned lies,

and statistics.



One should always evaluate the messages of others without assuming they are either correct or informed. Trust but verify.

I don't see why most anyone would bother to lie in a forum. Where's the benefit? Why even do it? The closest thing to what I might call a "lie" would be when people deliberately take extreme positions to spark controversy. And that's more like vaudeville than a straight-up falsehood.

[Kralizec]

Depends on the person. There's really no gain in lying on an internet forum, but not everybody knows that

I think the majority of people here are pretty honest, though.

[Devastatin Dave]

I trust most folks here. So far there has been a few confirmations of frauds (plagerism of pictures and such) but mostly the folks here are honest.
