Just a quickie poll. Wondering how many you actually act the way you do on the Internet vs. RL.

0%=You act completely different in real life.
25%=You act somewhat the same in both lives.
50%=You're right in the smack dab middle in between both.
75%=You act just about about the same you would in both lives.
100%=You basically just act yourself. Who you really are.

I'm 100% myself on the internet. Why wouldn't I? I have nothing to hide.

I am kind of a strange person. I try to be myself in both lifes, but it's hard when most of my friends don't even know I'm into video games. But other than that, I am basically the same funny, weird person.

Another strange question. But mostly, it's internet life over real life. But hey, I have real life too like School, my real life friends, etc.
My vote is 75%

Like I've said before, the Internet is not a different dimension distant from "real life". However, I do act somewhat differently on the Internet than away form the Internet, because I can express my interest for subjects like Pokémon. I'll go with 25% here.

Oh crap I meant 75%. Oops...

The internet is far more different than real life 'cause you can't say what your really thinking
75% for me just because i can't say what i'm really thinking sometimes

I actually act completely the same, and Superskarmory/Kyoshiro can attest to it. I'm just as hyper, silly, and whatever else I am in real life. The only difference is sometimes I try to tone back my otaku-ness on occasion, but lately I haven't even been holding back with it. So yeah, I'm basically the same person in every way. xD

X!!

Unlike everyone, I'm actually being myself on the internet but I'm not being myself in real life. It's easier to express yourself on the internet than in real life. 50% I guess...

In real life I am incredibly shy and modest, while here I am rude and cocky. ^_^

I guess I can say 75% on the internet. I'm still loud, smart, and lack common sense as I am in real life. I guess the only difference is that I am a bit nicer in real life as to here where I am a huge jerk. Don't get me wrong, I'm still a bit of a jerk in real life, just more so on the forums (I'm trying to stop btw).

75%, as I still love to troll people, but I would say I guess I'm more carefree in real life.

I'm actually more serious in the real world, mainly because there's no time for shenanigans or fun in the real world. the world moves quickly, and if you stop for even just one moment, you'll be left behind, so I put in a solid effort to keep up in the real world. here though, I can afford to be more arrogant and relaxed, but in the real world, you only have one chance to make things right.

0 percent, I'm no Kit Cat or Champion of Sinnoh IRL

I'd say 50%, because I'm a little more carefree on the internet, where in real life I'm kind of shy.

Shiningbolt

I don't even know. I don't really voice my interests or hobbies outside of the Internet, so very few people know that I play video games and do stuff like this. That's about it, really. I still act the same way, albeit a bit less wordy and much more...slow.

I'd say I act about 75% same online due to me holding back my pessimism.

I act like a happy idiot on the web.... But in real life, I'm less happy, more serious, and very smart. (According to people I know)

I'm a lot different in real life than I am on the internet. I'm a really quiet guy who hates talking to people but that might be because everyone I know irl is a jerk and I don't like them.

On the internet it's easier for me to express what I'm feeling and its a nice way for me to slowly get rid of the emotions I hold inside me.

im about 75% myself on the internet.

I'm pretty much the same in Real Life as I am in Internet Life. So about 75-100%.

I think I'm mostly the same on the internet as I am in real life, but I'm definitely more shy in real life.

In real life, I'm shy, sensitive, a servant (basically), and extremely apologetic. My Internet life is nothing like that, which is why I sorta wanna become a hikikomori.

I believe I act the same, and why not? If I tried to act nicer on the Internet than IRL, why wouldn't I try to act nice IRL in the first place?

Although sometimes when I type stuff it comes out completely different than I does when I say it aloud. I attribute that to the lack of [sarcasm] tags in HTML and BB code.

75%.

I have stuff I would never do here, but I am still more or less the same person.

Ferrospike
11-17-2012, 10:24 PM
I'm much different in IRL, I act distant from most people, hate to talk to people, and of course I just sometimes I just spend hours just sitting in a corner and I used to cut myself(I didn't really stop). I'm much more outgoing in the Internet so
25%

Ayra

75% because personality-wise im the same person but in terms of what im willing to talk about it isnt the same.

I am the exact opposite on the internet.

Sir Muffin of Saucer

My behaviour is pretty much the same on the internet and away from it, but I talk about different things on the internet than I do away from it.

50%, even though I always stay until like 1 AM in the morning. I also have school, some extracuricular activities and stuff. I'm somewhat the same in real life.

I still fangirl over things/people like Miku, SS and Pokemon, but not as much because people irl suck and don't try anything new.

Sammiiee13

75% I would say. In both real live and here Im a shy person and have troubles making friends and talking to people. However here I'm usually ok once someone says hi to me. Also here I talk about games so much more then I would with my friends irl.

Rocket

50%.

I try to be funny, but I fail at doing so, also at writing Fanficts and guiding roleplays.

12-16-2012, 03:23 PM
A couple years ago I probably would have said 75%, but I honestly think I lean more towards 100% now. A lot of my shyness is disappearing, which usually was mostly present in real life. I see no reason not to act like myself, I don't put on any sort of act. What you see is what you get

TheTrainerExpert
12-16-2012, 05:52 PM
100% Myself of course. It would be strange to act differently for me.

I'd say 50%, I don't try to be much different than in real life, but I kinda am.

Austin
12-16-2012, 11:49 PM
75%, because I'm hyper in real life, but not as often as I am in my internet life. Either way it's the beeeeest of both worlds! *gets shot*

megagamer
12-16-2012, 11:51 PM
75%. Im pretty much the same in real and on the interent.
