Fake Birthday greetings

Hi,

Is it grammatically correct to say:

As i used to do every September, i hide my birthday from my facebook profile just to avoid fake greetings!

if you have any other suggestion and give the same meaning, please tell me.

Are you aware that the lack of a capital for the pronoun 'I' makes your sentence incorrect?

What do you mean by "fake greetings"?

Hi Clive,

Here is my second attempt:

As usual, In September of each year I hide my birthday from appearing in my facebook profile just to avoid fake greeting and wishes.

Hi Khoff,

The majority of friends in my facebook friends list are not real friends. In my birthday they pretend that they remember it. I’m almost 100% sure that no one will greet me in my birthday If facebook didn’t show my birth date. That’s why It’s fake greeting and wishes.

Hi !

I also wish to have some suggestion for that sentence. Can it be possible : "Every year in september, I use to ..." ? that´s the way I would say but I´m not sure about it. Maybe there are many other possibilities but I do not know..

Anyway I think that "fake" does not fit the context, I would like to have some other option for it ..

Thanks

Pamela

I don't have my brithday in my facebook profile, in order to avoid insincere birthday greetings.

Hi Clive

thanks! insincere is the fitting word! I read that fake can be used as:

"he had a fake smile"

"he is a fake person"

Can it work?

Thanks for the correction!

Hi,

"he had a fake smile" Sounds like maybe he wears dentures?

"he is a fake person" Sounds like he is made of plastic, or an inflated dummy of some kind.
