How much does your personality change when you get behind the computer?

how does this compare to when around others in real life?



which is more true you think?



why and how so?



btw, which area of the world are you?



is it like this for most you think?
How much does your personality change when you get behind the computer?
My personality doesn't change almost at all. I think both are true, although I may voice my opinions more online. I'm in Minnesota, US.



I asked a question on if Hugh Downs is still alive...apparently you are lol
How much does your personality change when you get behind the computer?
I'm like my real self online =P



I live in the USA
well like in my school I'm like super popular but liek here like no one even knows me so lol it changed a lot.



and here it's like more harder to know like who is fun to be cyber friends with and stuff
tons im like a different person behind the computer but in real life im not the same person
it changes alot im alot more confident
It doesnt change reallyy



I live West side of Canada
i soo different on the computer! alot more confident for some reason....in reality im quite shy sometimes :P im from the south west of england x
The question is how does your persona change when you get behind a computer??...chris.
I think that it is the real you just because you have to sit there and think about it. I don't usually try to be someone else, do you?
i live in ireland.... i think i get a bit more confident online and more open... especially if im talking to strangers like yourself! =]
My confidence changes.
it changes a lot,im more relaxed here
its pretty much the same...

because im myself no matter what!!!

USA

IDK?
I'm alot more toned down I'd say. lol. I'm alot nicer, and I'm alot more quite I guess. =/
depends on the website..



but here i dont change at all
Doesn't change a bit, I'm always a warm loving guy!



I am in England, how ironic ja!
I'm the same in %26quot;real%26quot; life as on here.



U.S.



I think a lot of people get mean online.
its the same person in real life as you see or hear on here ... but I have known folk who are not nice in real life as on here .

So maybe inhibitions go on the computer .
Your so funny! I love these series of questions. Well when im on the PC I shut off my emotions and im a little harder, really im a big baby in real life. But its nice to be what you want to be on the internet (in my case a strong person).
I think everyone changes to a certain extent. It's obviously easier to converse and express yourself online. However the aforementioned doesn't always ring true, I know it's applicable to me though.
Hi, isnt that called schizophrenia?lol No really I dont change at all,I am totally honest at all times.x
Behind the computer, and in text messages, I tend to be more outgoing and fun and am not nearly as shy as I would be in person. Online, I'm the person I wish I could be in real life. Not that I'm always shy, but I'm exciting and edgy more often online.

I'm not sure what you mean by %26quot;more true%26quot; but I think that online, I'm the %26quot;real%26quot; me that I'm usually afraid to be.

I think most people feel they have less to hide online, and therefore morph into someone they'd like to be able to be like in real life.

(but I'm working on putting my online personality into my daily life OUTSIDE of the internet :) )

I'm from North Carolina- USA.
I dunno im myself.





From England. %26lt;3
Well I'm a lot more confident online and I tend to judge people simply by their avatar and their username, and by the way that they type, which is a little bit stupid, but it's the only way to have some kind of link as to what the person is like. I like my real self because I've got a great sense of humour that I don't often get to show on here, but I like my cyber-self because I am a lot more confident, which is something I struggle slightly with in the real world, but I'm getting there :)
same as in real life....im in the uk
None. I'm the same on the PC as OFF the PC. I've know others to be different however. I'm in the Midwest.
Not NEARLY as much as yours, jeeez!



I'm me, online %26amp; offline- i dont change. i have nothing to hide.
It doesn`t change at all .. I am the same in the real world as I am on here .. mad !
nothing changes...im still the same=)..r cant speak for everyone tho..
I'm a Nosey Git, I like to know what the rest of the People on here are up to Right or Wrong, Yes I become more open, uk
