What if they don't accept random friend requests but do not state it?

I always consider MAL user not trustworthy by default, since half of them appear to be trolls to me. Especially those with relatively new accounts.

Better question since I don't trust anyone: What makes you trust a MAL user?

And to that I would say "Good question", and still refuse to answer.

How about those who hide their birth date? Asking for a friend.

Those who have a creepy forum avatar, like this one who had a girl licking a rat... That they only post in CE or FG.

It's when our affinity is under 50%. Critics are more trustable than average MAL user that appears in forums.

When I see a profile with negative affinity and Mean Score under 4.00, I can feel a negative atmosphere towards those MAL users.

I don't trust almost anyone in real life. So, how will I trust an internet surfer?

That profile is fake af. Nobody can finish 10,000 anime bt the time they are 24 years old. Not without watching multiple at a time or skipping episodes to oblivion.

I'm always suspicious of this strange, inexplicable phenomenon of users that come to MAL daily only to proselytize their ideologies, but haven't actually watched anime or read manga in years. I'm sure there are better places to recruit than on MAL's CE. I pity them, because I imagine a board lizard meeting held by /pol/ dwellers to determine where to go and these users dreamt of getting assigned some place meaningful, but they end up here.

He watched about 6 years of anime, but assuming that he is a NEET, he could easily be watching more than 12 hours a day of anime, and have dropped school early or not need to sleep a lot when he was in school (to fit in the manga reading! Since one can "spead read" manga, I would not trust those 1000 days of manga reading). It is impossible to most people to achieve such high levels of anime watching, but this exception does not seem absurd to me. There ought to be outliers.

However, you can be sure that most of the ones at the top of this page are fake accounts:

When every single of their posts reeks with that passive-aggressive behavior towards everyone for no reasons. I'm talking about people who are constantly like this of course, not someone who is in a bad mood sometimes. It's okay to be human.

Lol still happens except its more advanced than before.


It depends how long you know MAL user for. If its a short period time then yes and if its few years including you seen the person (what they look like) then i suppose a bit of trust can be put into. Though thats the same as online meeting/dating. When you meet someone who looks like a actor/actress and in reality, its the oppsite.

1: If I recognize a user as someone I always see in popular threads/controversial threads because they spend making 95% of their time on here fighting to the death to defend their love for lolis or parent-child/guardian-child/creepy age gap relationships even in situations where NO ONE is talking about lolis, that is a major sign for me to not interact with them. Like it's one thing to like those things even if I don't like them, whatever I'm not gonna go after every person that has some loli shrine on their profile. But when you spend your whole time on here trying to tell every single person that it's okay even when they're not asking about it, it gives off creepy discord mod vibes.

2: If they spend their whole time either complaining about SJWS in entertainment or complaining about anyone that leans even slightly right-winged. Like grow up, it's 2021, it's not 2016 anymore and there's bigger issues than the fact that 2 people on twitter don't like your favorite "owning the libs" anime or on the other hand someone liked a tweet from Ben Shapiro.

3: If they're rude and hostile everywhere they go, I don't have time for people who act as if someone pees in their cereal every single day. I especially avoid these type of people if they're about to be in their 30s/in their 30s and spending their time mocking tragedies and people's issues just to be some edgelord troll like what? Grow up. In general tbh a lot of people on this site need to grow up and act their age.
