I admit it. I googled the phrases/organizations posted in the signature of a member posting in this thread, who said that members of her sorority are almost all "dancers and cheerleaders.
It seemed odd to me, because the sorority name isn't familiar, the poster claimed to be 25 and a member of a sorority, living in Germany. I was interested to find out what these sorority/dance/cheerleading group(s) were about, so when I found ONE thing that mentioned it, I posted the public link that mentioned the sorority/dance/cheerleaders referenced in the Poster's signature.
Many people here question the authenticity of people who come here, accusing people of creating socks, not being truthful, or simply discussing the improbabilities of a person's story.
My snarky comment was "But of course!" I made it because it seemed very similar to people claiming to be greek and making blogs/forums/etc. describing themselves in tantalizing cliched language -"blond/thin/cheerleader/perfect body 18-year-olds in a sorority."
I get it. Mea culpa. Wrist slapped.
And what is this "iStalking"?? Is posting ONE (the only) LINK that I found in ONE SEARCH of an organization listed in someone's signature - which people put up willingly to share their affiliations - really STALKING? There's a huge different between that and true stalking. Am I truly "stalking" here?
I guess we can't move on, because even after I took it down and asked the poster to do the same, and several others people have already scolded me, people are still talking about it four hours later.
