"There, there now....we can't all be gifted."

 

Yeah, but at least people like you and me don't have to fear being backstabbed by brilliant and rapier like wits when unleashing it upon a physically superior yet mentally more insecure specimen. Lucky us, eh?

He used too many big words for you didn't he. :D

I am as hostile on the internet as I am in real life. If I see something stupid or I see someone being stupid I call them on it. I don't really give a crap about being political correct. Its a waste of time. The problem here is that I see more stupidity here on the net than I do in real life.

I don't think anyone is bragging about being aggressive, at least not where I come from. I have a short temper in real life and when I get drunk I tend to get into situations where fists start flying. It's a very embarrassing "curse" of mine, especially since I can no longer blame it on youth. Also, no matter if you win or lose, you always get some embarrassing bruises or scars to show for it. A few weeks ago I had to walk around with a blue lower lip for a few days.. Not very nice when you have to go to a job interview the same week.

I'm a lot more agressive online, because online I have time to think out my arguments before saying them, while in real life I don't want to sound like a knob so I generally just keep quiet.

Don't worry about that. You still sound like a knob here. (j/k)

That's exactly what I'm saying here, mkreku! No more black eyes for me if I can help it. lol

~ The reason people are violent only online: no chance of getting injured.

 

I really have no idea how I act online. Probably quite dumb. And crazy.

Not here. I tend to be more agressive on the highway...

People actually get so mad while driving they actually snap. It

I've wondered about this myself. Judging by the type of arrogant, jerkish behavior I've seen online from some folks... well, quite a few actually... I really do hope they are more aggressive in cyberspace than they are in real life.

 

I guess there's a kind of smug safety in being cruel to anonymous nicks on the internet when they cannot reach through the monitor to shove one's teeth down one's throat.

 

:D

People can be more agressive online because of the aninomo..because no-one knows who they are on the internet. I've met some people I know from the internet in real life, and I was surprised by they way the acted in real life compared to the way they acted on the internet.

Ditto.

 

However, I am more assertive and argumentative online than I am in real life (I'm too darn nice in real life; I turn the other cheek and endure rather than assert myself and my needs/desires).

Except for me as it drives me up the wall when I know im wrong but I just not cowardly enough to surrender :D , but hell if I know Im right you can beat the crap out of me in real life it wont matter because I still will consider myself the victor .

I tend to act the same where ever. Don't really see much point in acting different, and since there's no subconscious shift or anything...

I am quite angry when ever I started talking somthing on the thread, but than I realise that the title of the thread is totally mismatched in what I am trying to say!

 

I was talking about rubbish (in my view) roleplayers in NWN online communities, now having read some of these post (which are quite funny), they all talking about fists fight type of agression!

 

Just to add, I totally dislike nastionalistic people, who are rude to another person based on nationality, and talk about war history to judge, to talk down on others.

I agree to an extent that having no real threat to your person makes it easy to be a jerk... but I think there is a marked reason why people(including myself) end up more agressive online: trolls. and other various stupid people.

 

Where else than the 'net and particularly forums can you find a mass of heavily opinionated yet uninformed persons? Nowhere. Except maybe political rallies... and we all know how civil politics is.

 

Its the information overload of stupidity that brings out the worst in us.

 

GRRRRRRrrrrr!!!!

I think I'm somewhat more aggressive online than I am in real life.....though lately there's a new kid in my P.E. class....total idiot.....I tend to treat him the same way I treat people online. I think it all comes down to what Pyronius said.....massive amounts of stupidity. Course I have no tolerance for stupidity to begin with; just rare I come across someone stupid enough in real life to piss me off as much as the overload of people online do.

 

 

I'm a rather small person though, and I really can't fight. However I've gotten quite good at running over the years...

**** all you n00bs. You go to hell and you die. Yes I'm hiding behind my anominittittyty. I am enlightened. Piss off.

You swine-hearted wretch! You wouldn't have the balls to speak that way if this were real life. Everyone knows the internet is fake!

You insult my honor, you hairy diseased rhinoserus turd! To battle!

What a bunch of sorry insult wannabe's

 

No flair, no natural flow, nothing truly aggravating. Go watch a Monthy Python movie.

Shut up, Gorth, before I insult you!

Go away or I shall taunt you a second time!
