But you're going to behave differently e.g. when you're at the cinema to when you're at a football match - that's not "putting on an act", that's just conforming to certain accepted modes of behaviour.

I'm the same annoying tit wherever I am, and whoever I'm with.

As I mentioned in the other thread, I'm basically still the same plonker. Love me, tolerate me or dislike me, I am what I am ...I'm Popeye the sailor man - TOOT TOOT!

My behaviour doesn't really change at all Dudess, whether I'm in the pub, at work or at home. I'm the same me, all the time.

You're the same you, yes, but your behaviour is bound to be different - even if just a little bit - in the pub versus the workplace.

I agree with Dudess on this.
While I'm still the same person on here, different facets of my personality are clearly going to be coming to the fore.
I wouldn't say that I act much different, but I certainly am not exactly like I am in the pub while on here.
Typing something is a completely different process to actually saying the words.

I take it you behave in a single, jack-of-all-trades way all the time so.

Unless you happen to stagger around the workplace with a pint in your hand.

Just to have my say:

Everything I say on here I would have no problem with saying in person, and I frequently do. But I can completely understand why people might be in a position where giving a certain opinion in real life might lead to negative consequences (sc?). But here they have the opertunity (sc, again) to do so. To be honest I would draw a much more judgemental appraisal (I've given up sc,ing my post at this stage) of what people post in regards to people having a go at people than what the people may have said under the cloak of anonimity.















(Most times the word "people" was included in a post on boards? Priceless)

I think we are being a missing a bit of the fuller picture here.
In AH I can be a plonker - and god knows I do be - but in other sections such as the Politics, computers, and more serious sections I do be other types of mentality and deportment.
Over all in other words, the whole of my character and/or make-up is being expressed in some way I suspect.
Those that judge themselves just by the way their express themselves in one or two individual areas of the forum, depending on the "atmosphere" of those sections, are doing themselves no credit to seeing the full picture of their character being expressed across a wide and varied forum such as Boards.ie

I hope all that waffling above makes sense.

Roses are Red,
Violets are Blue,
I'm a split personality,
And so am I.

thats my location not my enviroment
and i still disagree
at a football match i'm the same personality just i'm cheering at the cinema i'm trying not to talk because my personality is polite

but when people talk about online personalities they mean people that act differently to the same stimul;us

for example i fiind some internet warriors who i have met are polite and reasnoable in real life but online they are stubborn opinionated and patronising

i am not i am the same whether im online at a match a gig or in the library choosing a book

i'm not different when i'm out with lads or in with the missus
i'm the same when i talk to my mother as when i talk to a person in a shop
i might treat them differ my mum would be treated as my mum but the princaples and morals and belifes my own way of expressing myself would still be the same

if my mum asked me do i like headshops on the phone or a bloke on a horse in the middle of a field asked me it;'d be the same answer expressed the same way although id be looking up and talking louder to the bloke on the horse

the bloke who talked about being accepted and not having people pidgeonhole hum because the difffer in te way he is percieved i would ask this
surkey you are just allowed to be more yourself in this medium as it removes your fears and other poeples stereotyping and bigotry

naw a wanker on boards is wanker irl they just don't wanna show it

A little bit more relaxed alright, but I'm still the same me, with the same opinions etc. No difference at all.
