Board RPG! Board RPG!There's so many readily identifiable personality phenotypes on the board, it's actually kind of fun to play "What's this person really like?"

Holy shit! And you're going to be a lawyer?How a person speaks is not as important as what is said and it is perfectly reliable to base an assessment on what he/she says.
Considering how often people misread verbal or physical cues in person it is not really an issue online either.

Your body language is always important. The stuff coming out of your mouth can also be 100% correct, but interpreted as wrong by your eye movement, hand motion, posture, tenor of your voice, breathing, etc.yeah that would be where that context thing I mentioned comes in.
and i sit in a chair when i recite so my body language isn't really important but even if i were standing and presenting I could be as poised as possible but if the stuff coming out of my mouth is wrong that would be the deciding issue.

Because in the absence of context as you put it, we're left to fill in the gaps ourselves. Your assessment of a person online says more about you than it does about the person being assessed.And how does any of that relate to being able to assess what kind of person someone is by how they behave online (the topic of this conversation)? Especially considering it is a one shot thing but instead an going, year by year, analysis?

So Shego goes around murdering people. For reals. Case closed.The conversation is the context. The forum is the context. If someone interacts a certain way with people that is how that person interacts. It is a truism, a tautology. We are who we are.
Even if someone is pretending to be something else they are still the type of person who pretends to be that way. That is in itself revealing.
well... you do keep responding to her.[/QUOTE]*snip*
She could also be into Hello Kitty and read children's stories to sick cancer patients at the local hospital. Those gaps make up the real person, but we don't see those so we create a persona in our mind representing what we know about the person.No but we can tell that she is the kind of person who finds that stuff interesting. That is into gore and stuff like that.
So I go around to salons and scream at other men getting manicures that they're being pussies... My God, it's like we've been married for years, you know me so well...No but we can tell that she is the kind of person who finds that stuff interesting. That is into gore and stuff like that.

Don't even joke about that.My God, it's like we've been married for years
Ok for example, someone who tells a really racist joke and then says haha im just kidding. Ok so that guy ISN'T a racist. But he IS the kind of guy who thinks racist jokes or the making of racist jokes is amusing. What someone says gives insight into who they are as a person. Not necessarily a literal insight.
Shego saying id like to kill people. does that mean she would literally kill people, who knows. but it does give insight into her personality.
My point is you're a half-wit who can't read between the lines or spot sarcasm from a mile away. I'm willing to be you're incredibly gullible too.ok... i don't understand your point. but alright.
Nope, quite the opposite. Your focus is on the message at the expense of the medium. It's an admirable trait, but one that doesn't lend itself well to communication outside of controlled environments. I suspect you'd probably avoid Yahoo comments on stories because you couldn't stand the stupidity of people posting there. At least here there is some semblance of not necessarily control, but at least constraint.I thought you and adammon were saying I read too much between the lines?
don't be afraid. we all float down here.
I think it's because you secretly like me.that is so it I am going to punch you in the balls
I don't know why your image posts get past the image off filter but it is chapping my ass!
