...acts differently from real life and on the internet? I have a friend who is nice in real life but STUPID, NASTY, AND DUMB online. I'm not naming people, it's just on a different website and I think this one too. scream

None of my friends are like that (that I know of), although my little sister has a friend who is.

Many people change how they act to adapt to the environment. You'd be polite at a fancy restaurant , but probably joke around at lunch with your friends. The internet is host to an endless amount of destructive litany. Your friend is just..following the crowd =x
It could also have loads to do with the disinhibition effect.

For me it's the total opposite. My friend acts like a cranky souless, bitter old man in real life, but on the internet he is extremely sweet, polite, and chipper. It's kinda creepy.... confused

@Uchihaichiraku: lol
I think I'm one of the people you're talking about, IRL I act all nice around my family and all, but with my friends I'm a little more myself....Online though...I let me be me. twisted

It's annoying when you know the person in real life but not bad at all when it's a stranger.

well some people can act different over the internet because they feel it gives them a chance to change who they are, kind of like a new start.

I'm definately the same on and offline, and pretty much everyone i know is, too. Except in real life i don't end every sentence with a smiley face or 'lol' or something like that.

I showed this site to a friend of mine once. After he made an account he started hitting on me here. I didn't know he was gay, there was no hint of it in real life.
It made our friendship very, very, very awkward.
