Actually, the wittiness involved in Cloudbuster/Christopher duels is generated by an immense computer. You might think they are real, but they are just computer programs.

That said; I have seen many serious posts by Cloudbuster. Then again, I have seen his undies too.

Does your booby thread fit in under "i love sex" or under "i cry a lot"?

retina said:

it fits under the 'folks at the org are goofy as hell and would love to see that' catagory

Cloudbuster said:

Seriously, I appreciate your presence here on the Org. I'm really curious about how you deliver your poopsandwiches in real life though.

retina said:

On a velvet tea-tray.

Cloudbuster said:

A classy presentation for a classy gift.

I should smile more.

Lleena said:

Because you smile more in real life?

dont hate

Lleena said:

I'm more aloof here..distant. Not so in real life, body language and gestures and facial expressions are an important part of communicating. When you can see the twinkle in the eye and curl of the mouth when somebody makes a comment, that makes a difference (imo)

Lleena said:

I was hoping that there is that twinkle and curl going on during your feuds with 9sey, but maybe you're dead serious then.

If not, it shines through even here on the Org. Even without the use of emoticons.

I really know what you mean though. I've heard so many stories about people that get along just fine on the internet but then when they meet in real life all these other important factors come into play and change things completely. An online community is nice, but you can only take it so far. And my initial question was basically a serious one; how much of us is filtered away by the layers of the internet, the context of the org and the medium of a web-based forum? I think the answer is: a lot.

Lleena said:

I'm like that too. I rarely act very sweet with anyone on here, and can be very aloof, but I think I'm completely different in real life. Mostly it's just because I'm too damn lazy to post anything more serious than emoticons, pics of Jimmy Page, and talk about music on here.

But then anyone who really knows me also knows that I pretty much talk about Jimmy Page non-stop anyway.

retina said:

I also think people can become caricatures of themselves here. An exaggerated self that in real life is different.

I knew I had more in common with you Except for the Jimmy Page part

Indeed. In need of a washing.
