Do you act differently online ?

[Cedric]

Is there a different personality you have online ? More calm or more friendly, more open or less honest and the like?

Otis Booard is the name of a group which I represent. My name is Roman Gupta as you can tell from my email address.

I am not crazy or anything, it's not like an alter ego, just representing and marketing Otis Booard just like webs.com

I don't know how to live a double life kind of personality. I think that it's going to be a stressful thing to do. What you see me as online is the same thing you would get in person with me.

 

[Phabbyfundz]

It totally depends on a circumstances, when I write I am sometimes required to be a completely different person so that I can be able to accurately pass the message which I had in mind but for my social networks online I don't change I remain exactly who I am but only improve to be better than who I was.

 

[Anachiwo]

How can you be able to give what you don't have already? If you can be able to change your personality into a different person to work on something or anything, you do have a multiple personality. There's a Latin term for it but I can't remember it now.

I don't act differently online because I don't know how to live a lie. It's those who are very good at living a fake life that would be capable of living a different life online than how they live or behave in real life.

I'm probably more reserved offline than I am online. I can chat quite a bit online, but I don't talk as much when I'm offline.

 

[Shortie]

I wouldn't say I am any different online than I am online, to be honest. If I don't know you too well offline then I may be a little shy at first but after getting to know someone a little more I tend to come out of my shell a little more but that is about the only difference you will see from me between online and offline.

 

[Sparr]

The only difference in my life online and offline is that I seem to talk much online than I do in real life. It's going to take knowing someone very well and being comfortable with him or her before I can talk the way I do online with him or her offline.

I feel like we all act differently online. I know I tend to act how I do IRL online a lot more nowadays than way back when I was new. I talk way more online than offline too.

This is me, basically. I can't talk to people well offline unless I get to know them really well. When I first started working at my local Walmart I was very quiet and often sat alone, but as more people started talking to me I was able to engage with them a lot better.

Technology and social media have made communication focused more online then offline.
It's why most people tend to talk more online than offline because they are very comfortable doing it online.

 

[Reverie]

I think my brain is able to process more online and I'm able to sound somewhat smart lol. I'm outgoing online, and I can be in person... but in person I'm much more a listener and I'll talk when I feel knowledgeable.

 

[Kyng]

Yeah, I'm more shy and introverted offline.

(Which is really saying something, because I'm quite shy and introverted even online !)

 

[Ravenfreak]

I'm actually more outgoing while I'm posting online. I'm more of a introvert in the real world and only hang out with a few friends here and there. I have social anxiety, so going out in public and having to talk to strangers freak me out.

 

[Jason]

No I feel like about the same, in most cases. However, with Facebook I'm sort of fake because people can't take a joke etc. In that case, I act very non-threatening. Well, it's tough to relate to people I guess.
