Online persona

Who out there is the same “in real life” as they are “online”?

I hope that I’m the same smile

What has turned me off some online places in the past is the disrespect shown by some members towards others. I’m very happy to have a difference of opinion, an argument even, as long as it is without personal attack and put down.

I have met some absolutely awesome people online, some great friendships have resulted.
I’ve also decided there are a few people I would feel uncomfortable hanging out with.

What’s your experience?

I think you’re much the same online and in person smile

I’m a lot quieter and less outspoken online than I am in person oddly enough. Probably because in real life I have a tendency to speak without thinking where as that is much harder to do online :p

I’m the same… (I hope) my theory is why try to be something/someone your not.. If people don’t like you for you.. Then what’s the point being friends with them?

Funny - i think most people on here are the same in person as they are online.

But interestingly I think a lot of us came out of our shell more on here specifically after meeting us online/shred.
