You go to the EP gift shop, pay your 50 tokens, then point your newly purchased bullsh_it detector in the eyes of all your circle friends.

In most cases...people who are lying can't look you in the eye...when answering a question.

You can't. You have to accept that everything people say here is potentially false. Don't let yourself become to vested in the things people say.

Here's a tip for ya, if it seems rude and kind of ****** you off, it's probably an honest answer!

Unless you find out they had been lieing you can't really tell if people are telling the truth on here or not. I can usually tell with some lies though because it is obvious to me, but other times it is not obvious or what they are saying is believable.

But if you suspect someone is not being truthful then there is a reason you think they are lieing. They probably are telling lies.

Ask them a few unrelated qquestions, then ask them the a few of the many related questions.
U remeber the ans to the impt ones, then ask them these questions, abt a few days or a week. Compulsive liars may not always remember everythign they lie, although there are exceptions.

You can't. I personally know someone on EP and half of his stories are lies :p

I guess you really can't tell on here.

All I know is that honesty is the best policy!

Who cares... I know I don't lie in here... I'm here to share with others and sometimes help others. Would it really affect your life if someone here lied and said that they "love eating beans", "am a mass murderer" or "enjoy group sex"? If they want to lie why would it really matter?

They are taking away from their experience... my belief is when one lies one is mostly lying to one's self and the person it hurts the most is that person. *shrugs*
