Flattering or Insulting or just plain Annoying? Pico Posers!

 I asked some of my friends who you all know to be very famous to say a few words on the subject of posers. Impostors pretending to be us. And they were great enough to accept my request. So without further ado here are some of your favorite picos here to share their experiences with an impostor, feelings on copycats, or what you should do if you have a copycat/what they did when they had a copy cat.

A word from [♥]Breezy[♥]....
"They [my posers] weren't the nicest bunch. However, my friends supported me, and I got through it. Now that I've been through it, this is what I can tell you to do: First off, talk it out with them. Sometimes they can be understanding, and you can get them to change back. If they aren't, however, it's best to just leave them alone. If you fight, they'll only fight back. Hope this helps! ^_^ .::Breezy::."

"Copy cats has become a very serious issue among our Pico community. I went through this very unfortunate problem a few months ago when I was still writing for PicoStyle with a fan that became obsessed with me. The person pretending to be me, no only very cleverly copied my Pico but me profile as well. After A while not only was she pretending to be me but started posting messages and sending me letters of very offensive content. This hurts our image very much due to the fact that some people will eventually be fooled, and believe me, this "POSERS" go out there and will intentionally behave in a way to purposely hurt our image. I handle the situation by not giving in to my poser's provocations, thankfully my poser got tired and moved on. I ask you my dear Picos to always pay close attention to who approaches you . Make sure that you are really talking to the right person and not an impostor. There should be clues that will give them away. Maybe their behavior or the way the communicate, just remember to keep your eyes open and we will all be safe :)"

A word from Little BoPeep™ ...
"You may or may not know, I have had many people copy me.When it first started, I felt aggravated and anoyed because o have my own, unique sytle. now as time has gone by I have realized how ever much people will copy my look, or steal my name It does not matter, because I am my own person and no body can take that away from me-LBP"

A word from VER☆NICA...
'To all posers,its not so much fun to see a pico pose as you...and if you are a fan,a fan is not obsessed so please be you,i like all piCos just the way they are"

A word from @nom2...
"I once had an experience of having an impostor. she wrote in her pico profile intro that she used to be nom2 and her house was featured on a blog. she even wrote on my wall that i copied her house which in fact she did to mine. I just laughed at it and gave her my dosage of my medicine. i wrote on her message board too and told her i don't know what's happening with her, and why she is pretending to be me. i even showed her house and profile to my friends and made a good laugh on it. That's when i remembered, the reason why she kept on visiting my house often was to copy it. i just deleted her on my list and after a week, she went back to normal. :)"

A word from Rudy Further...
"hi belle :)
i think impostors are funny. they can do whatever they want. i don't mind ^^" 

A word from Ñàtẖḁṉ™Sʜʀɪɴᴇ...
"well impostors are such a very uncomfortable people but though they give you strength through stuff, it is very nice of them to admire who they copy, impostors could be annoying or uncomfortable but they are fans who admire and look up [to] you!!!!!!!!^^" 

A word from Catero...

"Imitation is the most sincere form of flattery; but it gets annoying. At the Picostyle blog, we recently had to deal with a situation where an admirer of the blog copied some of our posts word-for-word (and used excerpts from other) to her blog without crediting the original source. That's plagiarism ... and plagiarism is illegal. I tried to be respectful and speak to the person to let her know about the gravity of the situation. When she dismissed and ignored me, I filed a DMCA (Digital Millenium Copyright Act) claim through blogger.com to report her content theft and her blog was shut down. If someone has posted your photos, text or other content without your permission and/or without giving you credit, file a DMCA.

Copy catting can come in many forms in everyday life. From the way certain people walk, talk, do their hair, wear their clothes, sing, dance and write. To a degree it's all a part of our lives and we've all dealt with it. We make personal choices based on what we see in or hear from others. The line where one crosses from appreciating admiring a certain philosophy to downright copycatting is when the person pulls in so much from the object of their admiration that they lose traces of their own personality. This is because of insecurity; not being confident in oneself.

Don't let copycatters get you down. If you have grounds to ban or report them, do so. But keep being you. They may be able to copy your look, but they can never copy your spirit and the intangible things that make you "you"."

A word from ♥DQ姫系♥™...

"I treat pico as my second life. Also, I met different kinds of people from all around the world. Can't believe what will my life be without pico. :)"

Something to look forward to...

Well since Chibilicious Pico Time is cracking down on the posers. I decided you all must be sick of hearing from me. So I and L'heure Blue have asked some of our famous friends to share their experiences with people pretending to be them, what they did about these posers, and how these impostors made them feel. Here is an update on this post and how has been confirmed to write for it.

and of course your Chibilicious Pico Time Authors: Lightning and L'heure Bleue
(Note: If one the pico has the word "confirmed" by their name, they are confirmed to appear in this article and/or has already sent Lightning their comments/paragraph. If the words "Pending Confirmation" is by their name, Lightning has asked them to appear in the article and is still awaiting confirmation that they will appear in this article. Or if they have "Denied" by their name Lightning has asked but for their own reasons that Pico cannot appear in this article.

Where have you seen these picos? Many of them have their own blogs with a huge following! Others are from the Hot 30 List, or perhaps you have just seen them around Pico.

Flattering, Insulting, or Just Annoying? Pico Posers! Expected Date to go live- this Saturday!

Anti Social

Well guys, it has happened again, except this time it was one of my own friends who betrayed me. A girl I met and added a week ago has changed her name to Lightning and changed her look to be similar (not identical mind you) to mine. With this I have made a few decisions. 1) I am no longer accepting ANY friend requests period! From now on I will only add people I know. Please do not ask me to add you or if you can add me. If I want you on my buddy list I will put forth the effort. 2) At special events such as fashion shows or when approached my fans, if I do not talk or talk very little and only use expressions, it isn't because I am ignoring you are am trying to be mean, you just never know who you can meet on Pico and it is safer for me to keep my mouth shut. 3) To all those on my buddy list already, you may see that I will be offline ALOT, this may not always be the case, so send me letters to find out if I am online. Until I clear my buddy list of unwanted persons I will show up as offline for my own safety. And finally, 4) Letters will NOT be denied. I am still taking all letters whether they be from friends or fans so if you do need to get in contact with me. Use my message board or drop me a line. Thank you my friends. -The real Lightning

A Very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year

A very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to my Pico fans and friends

COPY CATS?!

As many of you know, I changed my name this week to ๑۩۞βєllє۞۩๑ There were so many Bells running around I wanted to change my name to something more unique so my fans could know it was me. Well clearly I was wrong, in the last 5 days I have had 2 COPYCATS. One was more discreet about the theft of my name. It was not until one of my friends ran into her did I even know of her existence. The other however was much more ballsy. She came to my room and hit the laugh expression over and over and over and then insisted she was the real Bells and that I was the fake. She has taken her imitation very far, even chagning her url to my blog so people think she is me. Please if you see these people or people who copy me, inform me or pico immediately and do not let them fool you, they are just pretenders looking for either a. friends, b. fame, c.fans or d. to annoy me because they are haters. One of these imitators is:  ۩۞βєllє۞۩[SMP] . As you can guess I did report her for behavioral abuse.  THANK YOU MY WONDERFUL FANS FOR YOUR SUPPORT. (btw hot 30 # 6 yesterday!)
