That's another thing. I'm not a Grammar Nazi/prove-you-wrong type guy in real life as opposed to online. I find it rude (and unbearable) to point out others' mistakes. One example is when someone told me that my Etymotic HF5 was an earbud (actually an IEM) and that earbuds are generally bad for your hearing - also that he hates when people call earbuds 'headphones'. He's wrong on all three statements, but hey; I keep my mouth shut in those instances. Not so much for him; he's still a know-it-all type guy. Like Sheldon Cooper. Except he's not too smart; he just knows useless trivia.

Online, it's a different story. If I see a mistake, I make a list of why you were wrong and occasionally get mad for it and call you an idiot or a result of inbreeding. Well...

Anonymity corrupts.

Well, if anyone acts the same in this game then in real life, they would Probibly get there face smashed in.

And also the whole class raged on me, when we had this counselor, because of the fights in class, so we made a scale and she had sentences written on papers, which you have to put between 0-100, according to how much this offends you.
So it was my turn, when she gave me a paper which read: Someone insults my religion.
I added it on 0 and they all raged so hard..

You are the hero Egypt deserves, but not the one it needs right now.

Interesting question, I actually never thought about this.

In real life, I'm an outsider from my class. I go to a small Catholic all girls school, and have gone through a lot of people for friends. xD Literally - I've been best friends with people at least once from every clique in my class, and all of those friendships ended dramatically, whether over small stupid things to prejudice or even religious discrimination(you'd figure it wouldn't happen to a Catholic going to a Catholic school xD Anyway, that's a whole different story entirely). o3o I mean, it's not that people hate me; I'm recognized for my artistic talents. But that's pretty much it.

Online, I'm way more social-- I'm myself. So, I guess not, I don't act the same in real life as I do online.

I act about the same,Im a class clown,got a few popular friends and I'm the pretty average boy. I brought graal to my grade so I got like 15+ people to play. Anyways,I don't think I act different,despite this grammar,If you talked proper-like in my school you'd probably be verbally bullied by some douchebags/jocks. Oh by the way I'm on the football team but I'm not a jock I just enjoy the sport.

And also I'd like to add,I hate when people on the internet make fun of people with style. In other words "swag" <--I don't like that word.
But some of us care about our appearance,It basically describes who you are.

Then they weren't your best friends.

Being friends with the popular kids helps, I benefit quite a lot out of it.

Blueh 09-05-2012 08:21 PM

Like I said earlier, I'm half and half. I have a great school life and a great online life both with lots of friends...just need to pick my personalities *voice morphs into a demonic Two-Face voice* more wisely for each of them...*flips coin*

That's actually a really good question. Most of the brats on here won't act like that in real life.

I'm waaaaay more confident on a game than in society. I hate that.

This. But there's exceptions. Anyone else feel like that?

Infernus Lapse 09-05-2012 09:19 PM

I'm kinda shy lol. I act pretty much the same around friends irl and in era actually. I think the main thing that changes for me in era is the benefit of not being judged for what I say online.

MementoJoker 09-05-2012 09:37 PM

If a popular/physically stronger classmate starts saying something, which I am against, I don't do anything, because I just can't argue with these people.. On the internet, however, I can..

Wow so lame,If you can't say it to a face don't type it behind a screen,that's the kind of people I hate.

FaZ3 09-06-2012 02:04 AM

In real life I'm a total class clown. I am the opposite of uptight, probably one of the chillest people you will meat. I am most liked by most of the kids at my school. I'm not really popular but most people know me. I do well with the ladies, not trying to act cocky or anything.. But yeah, Also i'm not athletic whatsoever. I'm really artistic and most of the kids think of me as like a professional artist or some art god.. So yeah that's pretty much how I am irl

I'm the opposite, you'll often hear "you're a dumbass." coming from the other side of the class during class discussions. I like proving people wrong.
