Has the old Wendy B claimed or stated her name as being Bradley?

My first name is neil, sometimes I have used Neilm to join sites, with M being the first initial of my surname, if thats gone I use Neils... S being my middle name initial

I cannot see any connection or proven link giving reason why to join a site to defend your name WendyB(2).

WendyB also stated she has connections with National Geo and or Plants and Fauna, so is this also part of your life WendyB2?

She defends her namebecause some onthe forums looking for the real identity of WendyB found that Wendy Bradley.

oh my ---- this is like a tv game show
and I can't help from thinking "Will the Real Wendy B please stand up?" just so the audience knows for sure

I hate to be skeptical it really isn't in my nature. But I'm having a tough time with this one. Sorry.

Welcome to the steaming cesspool of knowledge that is the interweb. Brings out the best and, more often than not, the worst in people. Think these wendyb threads are a case of the latter. Fun to read though!

Couple oddities:

1) The writing style is remarkably similar, down to the foot-stomping, almost childlike indignation (ex: "put that in your pipe and smoke it")

2) The "real" Wendy just happened to be doing a google search on her name right after the "fake" wendyb was outed in the forum? Why now, why didn't she stumble on this imposter, say, 4 months ago?

. . .

Yes, Bradley was associated with the original WendyB.

Edit: the original WendyB had this in her about me section which debunked her NG myth:

At this point in time, she also hasn't visited the profile page of the original WendyB yet which is odd. Also, the first thing I'd do is contact Adam. The scary part is there is a real WendyB out there with a Fleabay account.

Discovering this situation has been very upsetting to me and I will get to the very bottom of it.

Sincerely,

This is turning into the best thread ever. Almost as good as when Pål and Roland start yelling at each other.

Welcome, Wendy, it's a nice place here, except for all the wierd postings your alter ego has been doing. Especially the strange, quasi-poetic gear-hype speculation supposedly from an industry insider, that being you (or the other you), that may or may not have been partially true.

Or, if you are the other you, then you've got some serious issues. You'll have to forgive us, but we've been dealing with the other you for a couple of years now, so now finding out about this you is a little disorienting for us to say the least, and we're skeptical. But please don't leave us hanging at this point, we want to know who impersonated you, or, if this is the other you, what kind of treatment course you intend to proceed with to pull yourself back together. If this is the old you, you need some serious help. And Ned, if this is the old you, I think you may be beyond help. Better switch to Leica or something.

Welcome, real Wendy, if this really is you, we look forward to you posting some pics in the gallery, especially now pics of you and/or whomever was posting as you.

Cheers,
Cameron

The only known bikini photos of WendyB are the topless ones from Brazil.

In the end, we'll find out that wendyb, "real" wendy, Rice High and benjikan are all the same person.

As I said to someone in PM, I'm waiting for the 'fake' wendyb to show up and yell at the 'real' wendyb. It will be like sitting in on a therapy session.
