How close is your Online Persona to your True Self???
 
Are you just like you are Online as you are Offline

Well I must say, Wolfpac is a bit of a character. Not by much, but it isn't really my true form, but it also is. I think I act a little too smug online than I do off. But in General, Wolfpac is True to myself. Wolfpac is the side of me if I was hanging around my mates. I wouldn't be him if I was doing something serious or meeting someone for the first time. But when I'm with my friends. I am a lot like Wolfpac.

So how close are you to your Screen Name, offline???

I keep myself true here as I am offline. To me there is no reason to not act yourself here. So I dont take on a charcter that is not me at all. I think I stay very loyal to who I am offline and here.:fuzsmile:

Hello Wolfpac. Some of the real me is like 'Summoner Yuna', but other parts are somewhat exaggerated. I try to be happy and fun loving online (even more when talking to friends) and am like that in real life. But sometimes online I take things really far. Like how I think Tidus is cute, at one Final Fantasy forum I was saying crazy things about him! :o And sometimes I am giggling online and don't usually show a mature side of me.

Well Wolfpac I can say I am similar to an extent when I am offline because I am alweys a person who likes to have fun a lot especally when it is just for leasure. but when I am online I sometimes over do myself and act sometimes rediculous or child like because I tend to be sarcastic at times. The reason being is because I have a child in my heart and I think that is a good point. You can say the Paramiteabe side of me is the child. And in real life I am plan ordinary Dave who has a life that consist of work and school. But I can say when I am with my friends I become Paramiteabe the sarcastic one who likes to just Bull sh** around with his friends. That person of me that I call Paramiteabe is the circle among squares. The one who can see the uncommon in the common. You see Wolfpac I am a person with an incredible imagination who can show it in my art work. And I say thats is the real me "Paramiteabe!":fuzblink:

Aside from the extra head growing out of my neck, and my extra nipple, I'm 100% true to myself. I see no reason to act like something I'm not.

Jacob 09-04-2002 01:13 PM

Im actually quite surprised some of you are actually offline to have offline persona's (Ooooohhh...i am cruel, lol).

:

rediculous or child like because I tend to be sarcastic at times.
I wouldn't really call 'sarcasm' child-like. I dont know many kids who were really sarcastic when they were children...i was slightly, but my sarcasm has got better over the years.

:

I have a child in my heart
Whoa. You should get that sorted out...Its abit dangerous.

:

circle among squares
Yes, this leads onto many other questions such as;
"What sort of circle?"
and
"Does this mean your obeise?"

:

when I am with my friends
Too easy...

:

Aside from the extra head growing out of my neck,
I knew a girl like that, but she had it growing out of her groin. It was only when she went to Dr's that she realised she was in labour...But its when she was on her way to the birthing room that hilarities really ensued *Giggles to self*

:

and my extra nipple
I have one of them...

Erm, i'd say yes and no. In the real world im alot more introvert with people i dont know. People call me snobby, stuck-up etc which...is true. I do judge people by the clothes they were to the extent i did actually say to someone, whilst i was shopping "Dont touch me whilst wearing that..." which...was rude. But it was Adidas...i mean, come on!! Im alot more loving in the real world aswell...and sarcastic and witty. I tend to make myself feel better by bitching and putting others down aswell...which works.

jacob...oh man....heh [I refuse to use that stupid 'laugh out loud' acronym.]

I guess I'm kind of introverted on the forums, but I'm really introverted in real life. I generally dislike 99% of the people I meet, so I don't bother meeting many people.

Jacob, knowing how you feel about clothing, I shall one day have to photograph myself in my home made bondage pants and modified army field jacket. I would either drive you insane, or make you vomit. Or both.

Jacob 09-04-2002 01:46 PM

If it looked good i wouldn't really mind, but if you paid money and left it how it was and it was vile...i would be disgusted. I like Prada and Gucci annnnnnd VERSACÉ!! Adam Rickett...mmmmm *Drools*

paramiteabe 09-04-2002 02:33 PM

Yep your right Jacob I think I...I am very obese and that I...I am a circle!:D And plus I think that I don't have a life like you said!

Hmm let me think well I guess your right I don't have a life! What ever!

:fuzemb:

Silversnow 09-04-2002 04:25 PM

The point with a forum is to be social. To "talk".
In real life, I don't usually speak to people unless spoken to. And that kind of speak is mostly just "Yes", "no", and that kind of things...
So I guess that here I'm a bit more open... But I don't willingly change my personality just because I'm online.

Sure... why not? It's better than forking out $80 for a pair of pants with a couple of straps and a few extra zippers...

I suppose I'm really a bit more outgoing here on the forums than I am in real life... sometimes. I can be a nice guy when feel like it...

Sal the Mudokon 09-04-2002 11:42 PM

I am NOTHING like my over-sexed, humorous male stereotype Online character: Sal the Mudokon. In real life, I'm a 4 and a half foot asian woman with a love for the fine arts and karioki. I also enjoy rainbows and long walks on the beach. Sal the Mudokon likes violence, porn, and cheap fart jokes. I am nothing like that. Sorry for spoiling everyone's expectations.

Joe the Intern 09-05-2002 01:19 AM

If I AM like my online persona, then I am! And I am! So there!

Miss Odd 09-05-2002 06:04 AM

I'm sort of different.... I dont really know. Some things I wouldnt say in person, that i say on the net.... But I find it better not talking to people, because most people dont say as much? I'm confusing!:( Anyway, I try to be nicer on the net, I dont know why, but it's more fun... Anyway g2g... bye

salty pretzils 09-05-2002 04:23 PM

I am more likely to flare up off-line.I also tend to project the more immature side of myself. I am not normal. Online or offline.

Jacob 09-05-2002 09:41 PM

Actually Salty i think your more mature than most people...I cant remember if we have actually come to blows...

mitsur 09-05-2002 10:34 PM
