Glad to be here, and it looks like a fun place... Now if I can just....

Yes, if I can just figure out how to block those spammers - they're everywhere, in your email box, chat systems, and even here on truenudists.com They're easy to pick out, for the most part, because they all start right off with some sort of "seeking happily ever after sort of notion", the kind that preys upon the naive, socially blackmails their already fragile hearts, and then grinds that cardiac tissue asunder - usually, it's a coin toss whether the culprits are actually even the gender they state to their marks. So I could set my photos to friends only and such, make my account private, or whatev, but what I really want is to make them disappear, so I'm hoping for a mechanism that can simply allow me to block all messages, likes, and the like (Yes that's a pundit) coming from accounts that aren't certified. Becoming certified is a simple process, and pretty much assures that the account holder is the person in the picture. Beyond that, regular netiquette prudence and safe practices should be observed when it comes to meeting any new person - even if you meet them at a local coffeehouse or bagel shop in IRL (that means, "In Real Life"). So back to the opportunity for a solution at hand (because I don't believe in problems, only opportunities for solutions), I would love to hear what some of the other members here have incorporated as far as methods of dealing with the fake account phenomenon, as I really would like to avoid having to pull myself into , or paint myself into, a corner away from everyone else. Oh, and have a Very Merry UnBirthday, unless it's your birthday, in which case, Happy Birthday! :) - tallship .
