Also to this point, It's not that I think that every person (or even most) is different online and off. What i do think is that everyone expresses themselves differently, in one way or the other, online and off.
How does the anonymity you use while posting on this message board....

Done.
Facebook has truly revealed to me that people will say whatever the hell they feel like even though all of their personal info is out there in the open for anybody to look at.
In fact thats one of the many reasons I hate that site now. I've found some disgusting and revealing thoughts and opinions that "friends" of mine posted and that's one of the reasons I'm not "friends" with them anymore.

I'm actually pretty sure I hold back on here a little bit more than in real life.

U right, facebook does show people will say some dumb ass shyt even with their info out there but i find they still share to an extent. Like I got some nikkas i know that post some wild shyt (pics of nikkas they just fukked up, pics of ghuns, etc.) that may look like they doing to much to nikkas not familiar but which, to their perspective, is still gaurded.
Like one homeboy posted a picture of a nikka they just fukked up with yo's nose still bleeding and a comment like "had to fukk this nikka up". Something like that seems like too much to alot of people but he knows he aint really go out of bounds with it. Does this make sense to you? I'm attempting to type this in a way that you catch it without me having to use alot of words.

Well, it's written vs verbal communication. When you speak, you don't have as much of an opportunity to filter what you are saying whereas you do have that option online (you can type, delete, retype, re-read before you Post Reply...so online, communication is more polished). I don't think that's having to do with online vs offline...it's just written vs verbal (same as if you were to write someone a letter vs having a phone conversation...you have more time to collect your thoughts).

Also, just to add....even though I don't generally say shyt I wouldn't say offline, I wouldn't exactly want a potential employer knowing I'm a member of the coli though. Y'all folks are just too wild and I'd be guilty by association.

I def do. In general text is not a good way to convey communication cause mannerism, tone, etc. can't be seen so you have to account for that when you're typing.
Also the discussions I have with y'all, compared to having them in real life, I'd never been seen as condescending or "priveleged" or whatever. I've been called such for other things, but for those things, I'd never/haven't share on here. Some things I can't speak on because it'd reveal too much about my personal life or whatever <------ can't even go into detail there cause nikkas would look too much into it.
Like if I were to call a nikka lame on here for trying to talk about women, I'd be called a simp, but at that same time, if I see a nikka pull that same shyt on my twitter TL but everyone will go in on him and remind him that he's lame and no one will be called a "simp" or anything for doing such.
So from my perspective, I do believe a lot of people on here say things they wouldn't say in real life cause I go out into the world and very rarely see these opinions (and not see them met by criticism) while the opinions I share on here, I can see pretty much anywhere, which equals me sharing less on here than I would IRL, lest I feel like arguing about it on here.

I have a completely off topic question. I've seen it used a lot from my lurking, but I never really knew what it meant. What is a CAC? It sounds dirty. ha.. Is it an acronym? Cool Ass Cat or something?

I guess I'm a lot more blunt online. I say the same things I would say IRL, but I'm usually a little harsher, quicker to laugh at shyt and more prone to snappy comebacks (I rarely insult people though, I just have a penchant for bouncing back and forth with snarky remarks). I keep a lot of my less popular opinions to myself in real life, but I come to forums to share my opinions so I worry a lot less about pleasing here. I also feel more detached from people's feelings on a forum like this, which is not to say I'm not friendly, it's just that's easier to be 100% objective when distancing yourself from that person is only a click away.
And I guess I'm more open about certain things. That's part of anonymity. I'm usually very closed off in real life, you can't get my political/religious views out of me or get vague anecdotes about my past relationships unless you know me really well, but online I'm just some random anonymous chick and that's very liberating to a degree.
