i used to surf around chat rooms, and occasionally id locate some of my friends and join the chatroom theyd be in. they would lie about who they were...they would act completely different than in real life. i just finished watching lain (layer 09), and it raised this thought.
do you act the same in the real world as you do on these boards, or any boards for that matter?
i act the same. the only thing i remember doing which wasnt really "me" was the old OLD OLD Nfire boards. i tried to act "cool." surprisingly, the boards went down the next day, and when they came back up no one recognized me.
