    Question Are those disclaimers pointless?

    like the ones I see people put....
    For example:

    Bimbamboom is a fictional character, anything Bimbamboom says is strictly for entertainment purposes. blah blah blah

    I was thinking about putting something like : Bimbamboom is extremely handsome, Bimbamboom is not to be held accountable for the many crushes ladies will have on him. etc...


    OK lets put my bad joke aside....is there any protection from posting a disclaimer like that in your signature?

    no no smarty. I said joke aside. Maybe I should have put a disclaimer for that. (damn me!)

    With the real ones, do they save your ass when it gets down to the nitty gritty, or are they pointless?

    Pointless - if they got you they got you - it wont matter if you have "I was only role playing" - our justice system is flawed but not stupid

    I thought that would be the case.

    I wonder if my handsome disclaimer would hold out in court?.....

    No, that would be prosecuted under "fraudulent representation" and "deceptive practices"
