Online Personas

I'm about the same as I am in real life when I'm online. I'm sarcastic online, sarcastic in real life. I don't understand the concept of being mean to someone just because you can't see their face; my conciousness still acts up when I say something delibrately bitchy to someone in a forum as it would in real life.
I love the idea of a persona though. I'm Kitteh everywhere on the internet and then I'm Tiffany on youtube (cause my Kitteh account got closed). It's fun cause its like I'm someone else, and I can be myself, but I don't have to worry as much. I dunno its weird. I have an internet personality, but thats the real me.
I know. I'm Genten everywhere except on Youtube, Y!A, and my blog ('cause Genten was taken 🙁 ). It's strange, because I can act like someone else and nobody would know it was that person they were talking to on the forum that said that. But, still, I act pretty much the same.
Although there is one difference between online and real life: I am much more mature. I type slightly different then I would talk, considering I have time to mull over my words before speaking them.

I act a little different.
Online I'm more outgoing and say a lot more. o__o IRL I tend to keep my thoughts to myself (Ok this is a lie. I'm terribly blunt. Online & offline.).
But you're always going to act somewhat different. I highly doubt a person acts EXACTLY the same irl.
I use a bunch of emoticons and say "lol" a lot, 99% of the time I'm not laughing out loud at all but I just use it anyways.

I think I'm a bit nicer in real life.
Well, when I choose to be at least.

I like to act more stupid and mean online, because there are only imaginary people here. And who cares what imaginary people think, right?
Tsuto's the only imaginary person here.
Or maybe there's more of them... O_OI don't know. I don't think I have an online persona, because I don't change the way I act? O_O My perv-tolerance is higher online though, because everyone seems to unleash their inner-pervert here. (You know who you are!)
I know one of those people you are talking about! Title is "Amazing Voyeur" 🤣
I don't know who you're talking about... stop making stuff up, Tsuto.
And I don't believe this at all:

I act and talk pretty much the same... The difference is that in RL I speak portuguese most of the time, since I live in Brasil.
Eh... not really. Personality is the same one way or another. ;P
But I do have more balls online (like everyone else) and prob say shit all the time that I wouldn't even THINK of saying offline.

I have more balls in real life. 😉
Since there is no way to genuinely transport your emotions and intentions via the internet, I rarely write what I would say due to the high risk of being misunderstood. In real life, I am a self-assured but charming extrovert. 😁

I'm more honest online; 'cause people don't know the me in real life there's no need for me to keep up pretences 😛 .

I try to act the same way online and offline -- I know some people who are amazingly funny and cute offline, but turn extremely annoying online.
I keep my thoughts to myself. I only speak up when I need to, am really bored or when I die in S4 League.
Love is so bad.
same thought, different languages
but i speak nicer and act funnier offline

I'm a very neurotic and unsociable person in real life. When I'm in the internet, I express myself in a calm and sociable manner.
...lol wtf? 😳
