How many of you use a fake persona online?

In the past couple of months, I've seen a few members reveal that they haven't been altogether truthful about what they have posted.  Granted, this is an online forum and pranksters, jokesters, and people posting in the safety of anonymity is gonna happen, but recently we had someone post in a thread that was based on "what do you look like?".

The principle was to put real faces with players.  Many people have posted in there, and after the discovery that one of the posters misrepresented themselves, it started a debate that needed a place to continue.  I started this thread because it really bugs me when someone exploits other people's attempts to be friendly truthful and open.  This forum and community is a great place, and I enjoy meeting other players and making online friends with the people here.  I hate to see it tarnished by false representations.

Ok, ok, enough of my hallmark card BS'in.  Just answer the damn poll......

And Polar, you are not allowed to reply anything but #6....

I am completely full of shit.

But I have never faked being some one, I just won't answer paticular questions.  Beyond that I am as real as it gets.

For the slower of you, I'm kidding...
Nah, I'm me. What you read is what you get... more or less...
Instead I create a cartoon persona. Sure he wears the same clothes as me, (bastard,) and the long hair thing, but he dosn't really look that much like me.

I am all that is MAN (don't believe me, look at my forum title).  I wish I could lie and create a fake me, but alas, my mind is not that creative.

EDIT: although my name is not Ken Jennings-just thought I'd throw that out there, in case anyone wanted a pic of me with Alex Trebek

If your "fake you" was anything close to the real you, I'd never have a chance in hell of getting off the carrier in Dalian.  (unless you got into a fight with yourself over who is pilot and who is gunner)
