Do you act differently online than you do in person?

Warning: I may quote you in an article I'm writing, using your username.

Jazax in advance. :]
 
Act differently? how?

iv always spoken my mind here, i read a lot here on IB but i participate very less in replying, though i feel i can reply to most of the post but i dont do so coz i find others reply well quoting quran and ahadith


walaikum salam
 
Off-line I am much less talkative and much less playful towards "strangers". Someone would have to be very close to me off-line to see my chatty-ness or my playful sense of humor. Off-line I can be very distrustful of others and I tend to keep to myself. On-line, the anonymity allows me to be more open and trusting.

If this forum of people, for example, was a school classroom and we were all spending years together day after day.... I wouldn't speak to any of you, except maybe one solitary female who I'd trust over time and take into my confidences, and none of you would know I exist. :p I would not speak up in class unless prompted by the instructor, and even then I'd shrug and say as little as possible. But even though none of you would know me, I'd sit and observe and listen, so that I could know all I could about all of you.

Off-line, that is me. :statisfie

Rashad, you can quote me, but only if you do not use my username. Instead, just make up a name for me. LOL Otherwise this is all off the record.

i cant understand my self up till now......but its seems i am same either offline or online.

umm not really i consider myself outspoken and i will talk to anyone (that is not creepy lol) offline and online. But I tend to be more blunt offline with friends than with people I dont know on the net but in all I try to be nice and helpful to anyone I talk to.
