Some of the advice threads follow a similar theme, where the OP doesn't listen to any advice given, and then suddenly their situation becomes worse. So it's easy to become suspicious of them.

I must've missed the "I sleep with Tom Hiddleston" thread. Sounds interesting.

It was in one of the secret celeb gossip threads. Highly entertaining! If I remember correctly the poster ( might have been a former model or glamour girl, not sure on that) claimed to have a special secret intimate relationship with TH. Can't remember all the details now unfortunately

ETA: It all starts on Secret Celeb Gossip #33 page 43 if you fancy a read. Can't remember how long it went on for.

About the kid asking for food thread.

I am 97% sure it was bullshit. As, I know if it was me in such a situation. I’d just ask the little girl if she was being fed by her mammy and daddy and anyone who has had kids, been around kids or works with kids will know, kids always tell the truth, even if it’s hurtful. So, it would’ve been pretty easy to know if that child was being fed or not.

I also would have been worried that the child would’ve been picked up by any weirdo as she was willing to walk into anyone’s house in the hopes of food and TV. So, social services would’ve been called on my end. Also the fact the OP was debating calling social services even though she seen the 6 year old child unsupervised in the street in the dark several times.

Like what sort of person are you if your first idea is to ask people online for advice when a child is possibly being neglected, abused and wandering the streets in hopes of food? Either bring the child into your house for safety, home or call the police. Weirdos.

That went on forever and she had some stuff on him so she wasnt worried if she got caught talking about it.
Total bullshit and the more she was encouraged the more rubbish she came out with.
I cant even look at TH anymore without flashing back to that thread.

Same! It’s when you see the tide start turning, all it takes is one person to call bullshit and then everyone else suddenly starts seeing through it too

Maybe I’m a bit gullible but I do tend to believe most of the ones on the advice page. I think (if they are genuine) some people just can’t take the advice - they give all the details but then it just goes round in circles as they don’t really want to do anything that’s suggested.

MD was a wild ride though. I was sat relaying bits of it to my partner who knows pretty much nothing about tattle and he thought I was nuts

How do you change your life for the better?

I’m sceptical of this. And I feel awful for saying it
I’ve gone in with 20 questions.

Just saying I don't think the above one 's fake. She's also posted before on the depression thread.

Unless we know someone in real life we have no idea what’s real and what’s made up.

All the better to take everything on here with a pinch of salt.

If she is genuine and suffering from depression I truly hope she’s okay and gets the support she needs. Her post on the above thread just seems off to me.

I hate when mods lock threads once we start having a laugh because OP was clearly trolling us

Mods probably hate people that haven't got a clue how difficult running "the most controversial forum on the internet is", everyone thinks they can do better

I think it's time to close this if it's turning into witch hunting other threads. Report any posts your concerned with. This isn't Mumsnet where fantasists are encouraged to run wild!
