"In these forums? Or do you feel that you come across differently to people than you are in reality? Nope, I'm the same here as I am in real life, a dickhead " That was, word for word, what I just typed in three other threads of varying contexts before I got here. | |||

"In these forums? Or do you feel that you come across differently to people than you are in reality? " I don't come across well at all! Have a dry sense of humour which doesn't translate too well over text. | |||

Have a dry sense of humour which doesn't translate too well over text. " Text is so bad for conveying tone isn't it. Even with emoticons things can come across the opposite to what you intended. So amazing how the same thing can have opposite meaning depending on how it is said. | |||

I think there are one or two people here who feed off the drama of being offended rather than give you the benefit of the doubt. I'm a true believer in Hanlon's Razor. | |||

"I say on here what I'd say in person. Unfortunately I have no control over how my words are interpreted because I can't back them up with facial expressions, body language etc. " I think I sometimes have this problem. I call it Jim Jeffries syndrome. A journo quoted his act in an article and as he says "if you READ my act... Its a bad read!!" But I genuinely am never trying to deliberately offend. Offending strangers is a dumb, nasty thing to do and I'm not perfect but I'm not dumb or nasty. | |||

"In these forums? Or do you feel that you come across differently to people than you are in reality? " I come across the way I am in my profile if anyone reads it. On forums I come across the way I would answer but life isn't simply a forum where people hurl 1 question and we answer...it's about back and forth communication so I don't think anybody can say they come across on the forums they would irl more that they have answered something as best they could using type rather than voice which is more than words but tonality and a deeper expression. So for me personally I judge based on profile words used and how they are expressed if at all. | |||

"In these forums? Or do you feel that you come across differently to people than you are in reality? " Yep. That is possibly due to the vacuum between transmit and receive... and the fact that one can sometimes run the risk of getting shot down on flames or hauled over verbal hot coals for voicing their own opinion....especially if it goes against the flow. | |||

" I guess that's difficult to quantify, as I imagine not many of us truly know how others perceive us here? I did a work exercise once, where everyone in the group had to write anonymously a word to describe another. The descriptions were reas out and boy were some people mystified. I spend a lot of my time looking after people and their lives...no idea if I come across as caring in here." Reas out? That would be an interesting experiment. I think you seem caring. Down to earth. | |||

"I'm so much more confident online. I'm very timid in real life if I don't know you, but once I'm comfortable you'll see I'm pretty much the same as you find me on here. I don't see the point in faking who you are. " I totally agree with that, Cyberspace gives you the time to think as some people find difficult to do in person. | |||
