No. Smurfing. Way.

[Laddy]

Name how your online character is different than your real personality.

You would not recognize me in real life. Yes, I am an effeminate and uberhappy adolescent, but I'm much, much, much more intelligent. I'm actually posessive of some diction, I have good head on my shoulders, and I can intellectually be taken seriously. I'm a honor student, dammit!

I'm also much less boy-crazy. I know I joke about being some major whore on here, but I'm not. It's mainly just a joke. (Not that I don't find you guys attractive, I do, but I'm not nearly whorish as I am on here.)

I AM friendly, kind, and empathetic. I do love corgis and I am a total queen, but I have a lot more depth. I do like to think I'm mature and sophisticated, I just don't act like it on here.

Oh, and my sense of humor is much more dry and high-brow irl. :colbert:

So, tell me how you are irl in constrast to your internet...persona if you will.

[oddler]

The one thing I have here that I don't have in 'real life' is time to think over what I say while I'm typing. I suck at articulating and trying to explain exactly what I'm thinking in person.

[Shlup]

I, uh... I guess I don't swear as much. I don't talk a lot, but when I do the things I'm saying are pretty much the same kind of stuff as the stuff that I say when I am typing here.

Yup.

[Christmas]

Hmmm, well I talked to people quite a lot in real life and in a comical way quite similar in the forums.But not as crazy. When I mean crazy I mean like a few years back during my peak period. I am quite concerned about the people around me and I like to hang out with a big group! :kaoclove:

[Shin Gouken]

I'm not sure how i'm perceived on here (arrogant probabley) but as you'd probabley expect with me being english, i'm actually quite reserved. My use of smilies on here probabley gives the impression i'm bubbly but that's about as far from my real personality as you can get.

[Rodarian]

Hmmm I dunno how to describe myself in personality... I'm generally a nice guy :)

[Shin Gouken]

Hmmm I dunno how to describe myself in personality... I'm generally a nice guy :)

Who does drugs, has one night stands and generally disobeys the will of Allah.... my kinda man <3

Oh geez when you put it that way......

I love you too man ...:tongue:

[Mo-Nercy]

I'm much more opinionated IRL. With real life situations that piss me off, I usually have something to say about it, but online, I tend to give people the benefit of the doubt because I don't really know them, so I sit on the fence or stay out of conversations more often.

[Pant Leg Eater from the Bad World]

Um. Well, I like to think I am more or less the same. I read/listen a lot, but don't usually input much into the conversation.

Well, I do talk in my LiveJournal a lot about stuff that would never actually come out of my mouth. I can be outgoing and such, but usually am not.

[Psychotic]

Basically, if the people from my work could vote in the Ciddies, I would win Nicest Member, Most Helpful Member and Most Helpful Techy by a fucking landslide. :monster:

... are you challenging me?

[Rebellious Eagle]

I think in real life I act about the same as I do here. I'm a bit easily annoyed in real life though, and I also do not make emoticon-like faces after everything I say. ;P

[Bunny]

I am the exact same way in person.

[Chris]

I'm pretty much the same IRL. I don't know how to switch to "online mode", and taking on a completely different personality, just seems like an awful lot of extra work and effort. In other words: I'm too lazy to be an online eccentric, or in real life for that matter. :p

[fire_of_avalon]

In person I guess I'm a bit more toned down, especially in my work-life. I'm just as geeky, just as noisy, I swear just as much, and I argue just as much outside of EoFF as inside.

I'm not at all sexy. But I'm funny.

EDIT: I thought of one definite way I'm different online than offline. I am really, really bad with men in person, but most of my friends here are male. That's weird.

[Raistlin]

I, uh... I guess I don't swear as much.

Haha, yeah, the same. I may not talk quite as much, but overall my old college friends and roommates can verify that I am exactly the same.

[Cuchulainn]

i'm exactly the same you duplicitous bastards.

[escobert]

I'm pretty much the same. Maybe a bit quieter but, not all that different. I'd say I'm more outgoing on here but that's just because it's easier to interact with you all not being face to face. if it were face to face I probably wouldn't talk to most of you. wait... I don't anyways :p

[rubah]

what is one is the other

[Iceglow]

Yeah like Paul if people who don't know me online could vote they'd probably say I'm much more nicer and helpful than I am here. I honestly pass for considerate and caring...shock horror!

[Freya]

I'm not so lazy in my speech. Online I don't elaborate like I should and then people take things wrong. It's usually cause i'm just too lazy to explain.

I'm fairly quiet too though, unless i'm around super omg good friends. So when I do talk i'm very nice. Everyone knows though, when you're on the internet you have to be a jerk. Well 'cept bunny, he's always a jerk.

[Clo]

I'm even more talkative in real life. If I spoke as much on here as I did in real life, all my posts would be tl;dnr. I'm nice in real life, but I can be harsh, which turns some people off to me, and I think I may be like that online too?

Also, I'm a lot more vulgar in casual conversations (and am sweet and polite in professional ones :jess:). I talk about sex and swear quite a lot, possibly because I hang with guys and fools, and I don't do that so much online, most likely because every other online user shoots heavy doses of vulgar into the internet and I realize my skillz are not needed.

[~*~Celes~*~]

I'm pretty much the same online as I am offline, except I'm a lot more shy in real life. Like, A LOT. :x Took me a couple of hours to even just be able to look into poor nano's eyes :cry:

[Miriel]

I, uh... I guess I don't swear as much. I don't talk a lot, but when I do the things I'm saying are pretty much the same kind of stuff as the stuff that I say when I am typing here.

Yup.

The way you type, COMPLETE OPPOSITE from the way you speak! Your voice is like super soft and gentle. xD

I'm much less likely to start sprouting off about race and class and gender inequality like I do in EoEO. Unless you're Del Murder. He has to hear that kind of stuff from me all the time. :p Also I'm sillier, much much sillier and off the wall random IRL. I get excited really easily about anything and everything and start literally bouncing up and down. I guess that could be conveyed online as OMG SO EXCITED!! ~ :jess: But my typing doesn't come out that way. I think my typing is a lot more restrained?

[qwertysaur]

I don't speak in green :p

[Clo]

I don't speak in green :p

I speak in rainbows!

[Tavrobel]

I don't act any differently.

[NeoCracker]

I'm basically the same, only in real life I'm more vulgar. XD

[~*~Celes~*~]

I sound like a 12 year old when i talk ._.

[NorthernChaosGod]

I'm basically the same, only in real life I'm more vulgar. XD

Haha, this. I swear more and probably make more crude jokes.

[Madonna]

Physically, I can torment a person in more ways than I am capable of online!

I hear stories of people divorcing themselves into different personae but have yet to honestly see it in life! Perhaps some traits are better expressed in one medium compared to the next, but meeting someone physically and online does not oft result in knowing two different people!

If one finds discord between perceptions online and off, perhaps one best look into better expressing oneself in both media!

[G13]

I'm basically the same, except I'm less stupid. My jokes are just as dumb though!

[Peegee]

I guess if there's a difference between my online self and IRL self is that I don't say something in every single bloody conversation (while I can do that in the forum). However I do observe everything with a mix of bemusement and awe regardless.

[rubah]

you also have to listen to his bemused canuck accent irl

[Peegee]

you also have to listen to his bemused canuck accent irl

That's right! I actually speak sometimes

btw how WOULD people describe it? It's probably a mix of Chinese english accept and Markham district vernacular, but how does it sound to YOU

Especially you Southern types.

[Slothy]

The one thing I have here that I don't have in 'real life' is time to think over what I say while I'm typing. I suck at articulating and trying to explain exactly what I'm thinking in person.

This I suppose. I don't completely suck at articulating my thoughts in person, but I just seem to be better when writing in any form.

Plus I swear in person. A lot. Fuck is probably the greatest word in the english language.

[Inferno]

Pretty much the same, but I talk more irl

[Chloe.]

I talk a lot more in real life, and swear quite a bit :p

[aquatius]

I like to think I'm less whiny and annoying but I'm probably the opposite...

[superbeckie.]

Oh God. IRL, I'm a cocky, swearing, noisy twat. Also, my FF & All Time Low obsessions are much more obvious IRL. I'm always making bad jokes. But I'm also a lot smarter than I appear on here, so it's not ALL bad...

[Hambone]

The one thing I have here that I don't have in 'real life' is time to think over what I say while I'm typing. I suck at articulating and trying to explain exactly what I'm thinking in person.
This. I trip over my words a lot IRL, but I do talk more.


I, uh... I guess I don't swear as much. I don't talk a lot, but when I do the things I'm saying are pretty much the same kind of stuff as the stuff that I say when I am typing here.

Opposite for me. I have the mouth of a sailor IRL.


I'm much more opinionated IRL. With real life situations that piss me off, I usually have something to say about it, but online, I tend to give people the benefit of the doubt because I don't really know them, so I sit on the fence or stay out of conversations more often.
Same here, people often say what I have to say before I can and then I get sad. :( I hate you all, thieves. :mad2:

IRL, my sense of humor's a lot more conspicuous and even edgy. It's very dry and on-the-spot, which is something I think I lose here because of the fact that I have more time to think about what I'm going to say on EoFF...

so I guess the main difference between EoFF Hambone and IRL Hambone is that IRL Hambone is a little more risky in conversation...risky. :smug:

I'm just as awkward though. :colbert:

[Rye]

Uh, I'm not too different.

I'm more polite. I'm a little more well-spoken. I come across as intelligent IRL, wheras people think I'm stupid online.

I swear a little more offline.

[qwertysaur]

but you don't sound stupid online Rye :p

[fire_of_avalon]

but you don't sound stupid online Rye :p
That's what I was thinking!

[Raistlin]

I come across as intelligent IRL, wheras people think I'm stupid online.

If it makes you feel better, it's not just you. I think everyone but me is stupid online.

[NorthernChaosGod]

I like that shirt.

[Jessweeee♪]

I'm much more of a ditz. Like, I'm unused to speaking aloud because I never did a lot of socializing, so when I do speak it's with a much more limited vocabulary and I tend to trip and say "like" a lot. I already say it online plenty, but it's like every other word offline. The growing southern accent isn't helping any.

[Vyk]

I quietly lurk in all your conversations offline too. So nyah..

[Aurey]

I post even less irl.

[black orb]

>>> In real life I dont talk to strangers..:luca:

[Dr. Acula]

I'm more shy irl, but it really depends who I'm around. I can be a complete crazy person sometimes.

[Skyblade]

Well, I've never really noticed a change between my online and real life personas. But I got an outsider's opinion for the first time. One of my friends from work cracked up when they saw how close my typing was to the way I speak. So I guess my online self is much the same as my real life self.
