Internet Personas

im not really sure if i project the same personality IRL as i do online.
I guess i hate confrontation online, i hate it when i get mean pm's and such and dont reply, but i guess if you said it to my face irl i would totally be up for a "discussion". especially if this was something i was passionate about. I guess i don't bother to try and argue online because its just too hard, and i would rather do irl.
I don't really think i project a lot of "myself" online, but i guess i cant really say. I would actually be quite interested to know whether i come across different online.

I have met a few people on this board who are almost completely the total opposite to what they are online. so i want to meet precha. i bet hes a sweet, old pushover ;)

You have such a way with words MP <3 <3

Oh and Preacha is Nothing like his online persona, he is a total push-over ;)
 
I don't think I said this before, but I think I sound like I have more of a stick up my ass online than off....I think I'm about a million times less PC in real life than on the net, because I guess online it's difficult to get across the point that I'm joking and not being an asshole. Also, I know I'm more eloquent online because I'm way lazier with verbal communication..

DQ babe, i totally agree with you.

you will find on bluelight there's lots of big egos. but they're just that. there's people that create this internet drama to entertain themselves, to make it seem like they are really powerful by putting you down and swearing at you through a screen and going out of their way to simply shit you (LOTS of examples of people like that on this page alone).

I know what you mean about the whole 'why dont we just get along' thing. no one on this website will give you 2 minutes of attention or respect for what you said. that's because they obviously don't see the further implications of that statement. and you're like me, it seems- we are very emotional, heartfelt people who simply care too much. and guess what? we're the ones that get hurt. doesnt make sense.

what you have to do is do as the romans do. not necessarily fake it (because i think that's a major disservice to oneself), but just let it slip by. dont take anything to heart online. online is not what matters. people online dont matter. life outside is more important. surely you have better things to do than quarrel with these idiots (most found in this thread) who get a kick out of calling you names without (and here's the ironic bit) even knowing you in real life. the mere thing they are trying to uphold!

$0.02

Just to clarify, the heap of shit you copped was due to your narrow perspective on education and attempt to brag for whatever reason you saw fit.

Secondly, you'll find that anyone who has this >||< much common sense will not take anything mentioned by randoms to heart.
It applies to life, not just the intarrweb.

Big egos?
No shit.

people say i'm pretty nice offline
then again, i don't associate with fucktards (in no way implying you are one), so it gives me no reason to be an asshole

yeah I bet you're a real sweetheart....

That post was the most polite you have ever been to me *shocked*

:)

New topics of discussion arent enough for DQ.

not even a whole new forum.

Maybe http://www.DQ-Vs-anyonewhosaystheop...greeletsargueforfourhundredandtwelvepages.com

I dont know, might work!

you know, if that's how you see me then you (and probably alot of bl'ers) really don't read what i'm saying.

I love a good debate. I'll freely admit that. As much as i dislike confrontation aswell. As funny and opposite as that may seem. I also have alot of different view points from the majority on this forum but i'm not afraid to express them. I seem to offend people by my thoughts and maybe (as i keep getting told) my aggressive approach. To me it's just passinate and things that may seem aggressive on my side is really just me sticking to my guns. That's not to say that my mind has never been changed before. It has many times. On many issues. I'm not closed off to new ideas. Quite the opposite. I LIKE hearing what others say but that doesn't mean that when i don't agree with them and stay firm in my own view points that i'm not respecting those different opinions.

What do i know though? I'm just a ditzy single mum hippy doofer that thinks dying her hair blue makes her "unique"

;)

carry on

edit - my sharona .. thanks. At least some people actual read what i say without attcking me and them thinking i'm attacking them. It's refreshing around here to say the least. I wonder if this thread was posted by someone other than "doofqueen" it would get the same reactions. Personally i think people just assosiate what i say with certain things and just assume things that I'm saying rather than actually READING what i'm saying (cos of past threads and "arguments")

and damn it! I missed the fight!!! - ironic that i would say that i know =D
 
you speak the truth. if anyone else had posted this thread or made the comments you were making, you'd be praised and adored :) que sera sera eh.
 
It's funny how the people who cop flak on this forum try to turn it around on every other poster and say the problem is obviously with them. You're the common factor. Claiming you're being victimised doesn't actually mean you are - it usually just means the person is paranoid or prone to feeling sorry for themself.

I have disagreed with a lot of people on this forum and still have total respect for most of them. It's not differing opinions that lead people to dislike an internet persona, it's how they present their opinions, and people who chuck a hissy fit when people disagree with them are not worthy of all that much respect.

so many jokes to be made, but since everyone in this thread keeps saying how nice i REALLY am, i'm going to refrain from doing so Raz

yes cos if the majority of people think it then they must be right huh
 
If you're referring to the content of an argument then majority does not necessarily rule but in this instance I'm talking about how someone is perceived, which is much more cut and dried.

If you have a whole group of people watching your behaviour and thinking that you are prone to over-reacting and have a victim complex, then that's the image you're portraying. That might not actually be how you feel, but it's what we see, and how our judgements are formed.
 
UAN - your 2 posts of substance on this page (:p) i couldn't agree with more.

I have come to know people from this forum both online and offline who hold vastly differing views, partially similar and exactly the same views as me. It's not what they believe/think/do/say but why and how I perceive them to express said views.

It's really annoying when people then, as UAN said, pull the victim card, because when you have such an ability to customise how you do this, the onus is on you to get your point of view across in a way that is congruent with how you want to be seen.

Close minded-ness, hypocrisy and blatant stupidity (and before you even suggest I'm calling you any of these things, I am using those terms extremely broadly and in a worst-case scenario manner) stick out like sore thumbs on a board that I have to admit, has its fair share of intelligence, self-awareness and open-mindedness.

I'll answer the actual question a bit later ;)
