Who are we?

[Wyz]

Very nice thread! :3 I really liked reading what other people are like in real life x) I want to share my 'story' type of thing too!

When I was in elementary school (ages 7-12 in Finland) we had six boys and ten girls in our class. It was the time when girls were gross, and didn't do anything much with my friends, at least during my freetime.

When it was time to go to high school (ages 13-16) I went to a class where we studied more English than they do in 'normal' classes, so I seperated with my friends, we went to different schools.

This honestly was the best choice in my life so far, and has helped me to be who I am. I have many friends, and I'm very social, I get along with everyone. I don't care what people think about me, which helps me a ton! I've noticed, I come along with girls better than boys, but I have good friends of both genders.

When I started foruming, going on MCG's ts, I wanted to have a good reputation, and to be humorous at the same time, and try to be as mature as a fifteen-year-older can be.

Now I'm kinda curious. What does everyone think of me online? Be completely honest, I can take jokes and am not one to get mad or hold gudges. I want the honest truth.

Some of you may not know who I am, but from what you've seen what do I come off across as?

Wounder if it's the same as in real life, because my friends and I acually did something kinda like this; where we straight up said what we thought about each other and the type of personallitys we all had.

Simply stating, that my internet self, is my alter ego. I have been quite ambitious with achieving great feats, and it is so simple knowing that people wish to express optimism within their life, There are great people within the MCGamer forums, Mooclan, this includes you. BitoBain, and so many other great individuals who do brighten up your day when reading their great, and intellectual comments.

Truer words have not been typed within this thread. And I am truly grateful to have viewed it. People are indeed willing to express themselves in a brighter manner, in to a more optimistic way to where people will consider them as good individuals. Social status, popularity, many people usually go for improving their reputation to achieving success and recognition.

We all fear that if we expose a darker part of ourselves, or even reveal pessimistic aspects of our lives and styles, which could include looks, personality, activities, and many other things, that we worry that people will view us in a different manner, they will think of us in a more distasteful way, that their trust will be lost towards you, since they do not like what you are doing or what you are.

But knowing this, this could simply result to showing that people look for others that seem happy, that seem great and amazing. Funny, kind, handsome or pretty. People look for others to think of as great individuals without acknowledging any of their flaws. And to my opinion, there could be a few vloggers on Youtube, or famous celebrities on Twitter and Facebook, or even MySpace, that usually are well known for certain aspects people admire, but not their honesty and truth. That is why some people are so desperate to stowing away their secrets, as they do not wish for exposure, and damage in their social status, in a way.

This is why I truly admire people who are honest with their peers, or fans, and themselves. Sort of like Mooclan, despite your flaws, and yes, maybe if we have known one another in real life and online, I would have still admired you for being honest with yourself and all the people who follow you and admire you.

I may be some sort of fat child sitting on the computer most of the day, but I have one thing to say...

We are humans, we may be imperfect, so why must others wish for perfect people?

Wow. Your post here was amazing. You're starting to really catch eyes as a good forummer.

It's so true that being honest in what you really are is important. Your comment about celebrities on social media is particularly thought provoking. Many of us would rather have a friend that was totally honest and straightforward, yet slightly rude than a friend who was overly bubbly to the point of being fake. I know some people at school who pretend to be friends with me just to look more popular, and they look quite silly. Being true can actually make people like you more than you might think.

I am always suspicious of people who come off as flawless... Sometimes we have to find a big flaw in someone before we trust that they are human. Even the people I have looked up to most tend to have a big, defining flaw that makes me like them even more. They often include selfishness, pride, or weakness in the face of peer pressure. In other words, you have to be partially imperfect to really come off as the best possible person, otherwise you will be seen as too good to be true. I call this the "almost rule."

The "almost rule" applies to a lot of things, like how good people look, for example. We generally like people who are tan, tall, with few blemishes, and an imposing figure. However, when I run into people who seemingly match every definition of beauty, I like them less than someone who matches most of the definitions of beauty. Part of the truthfulness of the "almost rule" comes from the fact that things that are close to perfect, but not quite there seem to have more desire to change, progress, and achieve something seemingly unobtainable. Things that are perfect are distant, hard, boring, and easily overlooked. Have you ever dreamed about something perfect? No. We only dream about great things.

Now I'm kinda curious. What does everyone think of me online? Be completely honest, I can take jokes and am not one to get mad or hold gudges. I want the honest truth.

I've seen two youtube videos of you as well as some of your posts on the forums.

I see you as a confident young teenager who believes in taking risks and enjoying things while you can. I kind of picture you as being tall, blonde, and fit, like a surfer. You're definitely a lady's man as far as I can tell. You believe in being very honest, even if it hurts people's feelings; your sense of humor is witty.

Thanks man, really appreciate it. I guess I'm somewhat the same in real life. Defiantly more confident online than real life, but I think we all are. As for the physical characteristics, I have short dark brown hair (maybe even black) 5ft 10, and I like to take pride in my aesthetics. Thanks again man <3

I entirely agree with this in the fact that people show different sides of themselves through the internet rather than real life. However no one -at all- can change there whole personality.
If someone differentiates themselves from how they act irl. I believe this may be the way they may want to act/feel, however they have emotions blocking them from acting the way the really want or they are afraid of what might happen if they do. So the internet is a place where they assume it's safe to show how you want to act. What I mean to say is that however anyone acts anywhere, is always a part of them.
This probably makes no sense and if it does this is my opinion, yours may be completely different.
