Re: Bridesmaid failing

The post was ok, just not the poster. I don't always have time straight away to check new ones out and will leave it until I am on a PC not my phone because its easier. The same poster posted the same question using the same name in several forums. There location was iffy as well so she/he/it is now banned.

No reason to not discuss the subject though

If people think its better to just delete it I will do.

When we were getting a lot of spam it was mainly from Russia, India, China and a few other places. You have to use a bit of judgement at times and guess at others. A first post introduction really does help us to know people are genuine. Yes we have a lot of members living abroad but when you search

You get a couple of hits on other websites for the exact same post. Looking on one of them I found post from the user with links to a website selling dresses, this site was registered in China with prices in Euros. All a bit iffy

I could be wrong and often am but I don't think so this time.

Re: Bridesmaid failing

Just to get back to the question, I suggest you get two of the fattest ugliest girls you're likely to find & give them the job of Bridesmaids. They'll be falling all over themselves to help, let's face it, it's probably the closest they'll ever get to being wed.

Yes I know, cruel & unfair. But I bet there's a few of you out there grinning right now after your initial "OMG I can't believe he said that !" Hey as far as I'm concerned PC is a computer.

I thought you were trying to make sure the bride was the best looking one in the pictures

Dave, if I were best man or an usher at that wedding I'd be rather peed off if the bridesmaids were fat & ugly. Plus, you'll want girls that look good on the photo's.
