Me and another Pit friend were talking about past tours, all the people we've met from here and comparing people's board personality to their "in-person" personality.

So I was wondering if you alter your personality on here because it's the internet and you can, or are you the 'what you read is what you get' kind of person? :?:

    I've met quite a few from here, not as many as you though. :lol: I'd have to say everyone I've met has been pretty much as I expected, with one or two exceptions, where I got the gender wrong. :o All have been great! :)

    i am definitely a what you see is what you get person...altho perhaps a bit more vulgar in person. :oops:
    most i've met, and i've met LOTS, pretty much as expected....although i will say, some definitely more shy/reserved in person than their online persona. :)
    Stay with me...
    Let's just breathe...


    I am myself like you somehow

    For the 5 seconds I met you, you were exactly as I imagined.

    Yeah the gender thing is a big one, especially if someone's kept it quiet! :oops: But I'd say most people are nicer in person than on here. For example, one guy on here who most people can't stand is really the biggest sweetie around. I always want to 'out' him hehehe 8-)

    Exactly, and I wouldn't know how to anyway. :? Plus, one of the reasons I'm on here is to meet people at the shows or in town so what's the point? ;)

    I think Speedy does a good job of showing most of his faces on here, so I think a lot of people know he's a sweetie. He just prefers not to give a rats ass most of the time. ;)

    this is true... in a good way :)
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.
