People get something from this forum that you just can't irl : anonymity. The truth just comes out. Those irrational thoughts come rolling out... This is usually why I write in a journal- so I can keep my secrets to myself lol

That's most of the problem. It's how a person can say and do things and hide behind a screen for cover. Guys ripping women....."metro" guys acting like bad-asses. Country guys acting like they fit in. lmao

The whole smear.

The anonymity of these forums allow certain people to be:

A. Who they truly are.

B. Who they want to be.

C. Who they think they are.

Now which of these individuals are posting at any particular time is something most of us will never know or even care to know. I think most posters are A only because they can be themselves without anyone being the wiser.

Now, we all have different views and it is how we approach those with these differing views that make these forums unique. Many posters just dispense with the niceties and go for the jugular of the opposing person. In real life, most people (not all) would never call someone a derogatory name to his face that they barely know for a differing opinion, but you can here because it is rather hard to punch someone in the nose on the Internet.
