I only got silenced two times, yet here I am, openly thinking that beyond the staff guys I really enjoy talking to, the rest are just pure asses who need to vent on others to attempt to cure their inferiority. :p
There are.... what, 40+ mods in total? I can think of 8 who I've talked to who AREN'T pure sadistic morons, and another 20ish who I've never even seen so I can't judge them, but the rest I can safely assume are fucking sadistic assholes, pure and simple. :p

Genuine question: where did you get that from? Just because you assume someone's an ass, it doesn't mean you'd act like an ass

I mean, I wouldn't. I just try to avoid them most of the time

@edit
and yeah, even though I'm not gonna call names - because 1. I don't want to get silenced (since I'd be calling out some mods for being unable to take a fucking joke and applying incredibly overkill punishments and silences) and 2. it's a dick move - calling people out publicly is not okay in most cases anyways - I've seen and heard of some pretty fucked up stuff and absolutely disgusting cases of power abuse. Again, not naming names out of respect

but I've also talked to great staff members (whose nicks I won't reveal either in the name of fairness) that are absolutely great people and that I'd love to talk to more often and meet IRL. If you're reading this, you probably already know who you are. I love you <3

In-real: I'm careful with not making weird jokes that makes people feel different about me, and I don't like sociolizing with a lot of people cuzzz it's too far away from my comfortable zone (?) I can't express my feelings at all too.

Internet: I'm too honest and always make sexual and immature jokes and literally don't give a crap if people consider me as a weird person. Also I'm more loveable for some reason.
your avatar makes me like you

On the Internet I am more girly / I bring out my true self more because no one really knows what I look like so I can be whoever I want. Then when they see me they realize this girly personality doesn't fit this hairy dude. Anyway I got off topic and almost went into a suicide note yes I do

Do you guys create your alter-ego, second part of yourself in internet? If yes, you feel like spending few min and being honest what's reason of this?
As for me, I don't put conscious effort into creating an alter-ego. There are differences that arise from communication online and offline being .. well, different. I always liked to view the gap between RL and online-self as a result of said differences, like for instance: anonymity and directness to name the two most important ones.
Also: Good luck with your insomnia. Seems to be really bad for you, I recommend that you talk to a therapist if you don't do that already. They can come in really handy sometimes. Hope it turns out fine for you!

I don't understand the concept of having an online personality. I've always found it to require effort to do something like that so I just don't.
You don't have to put conscious effort in creating an online personality, it happens by itself when you interact a lot with people. Try to pin down how you generally behave when interacting online. Try to pin down how you generally behave when interacting offline. The coining differences make up the gap between online and offline personality.
Thats the popular definition at least.

There are 3. types of people:

First that will be hating you in internet (I as moderator am hated a lot), but is not going to do a thing when he meets you in real life, and will generally stay cool
Second that will be cool in internet and even better in real life
Third one complete fucktards that will attempt to be idiots both in real life and internet
4th: People that are nice here and assholes IRL.

Real life = Around friends I act like a clown. Around strangers I act shy and quiet.

Internet = I lurk a lot, rarely active on forums. Around people I know I'm sarcastic most of the time. Way more feminine on the net.

I tend to expose my feelings much more on the internet, however more people dislike me on the internet. In real life I just try to avoid communicating for the most part (with strangers), but people I met IRL said that I'm much better there than in the internet

In real life I'm generally a lot quieter and don't express what I'm thinking or feeling so readily.

People who know me from real life say that online I can appear quite stoic at times, which is surprising to me.

Well, I think I'm pretty much the same. IRL it's very hard for me to cope with other people and conversations because I get anxious ( so I look like an asshole ). Maybe a little less nowadays, but that's just a little. With my friends however, we can talk about anything since we know each other for many years.

On the net, it's a different story, because I don't talk face to face with others so it's easier ( a lot ) for me to; idk, be happy, show my feelings, and eventually open myself if I see that someone deserves it. In the end, I try to be more open on the net. Sometime it works, sometime it doesn't. Idk, I'm boring I guess.

Online, I don't mind what i do because you'll probably never see any of these people in your life lol.

In real life I'm kinda shy and quiet until you actually get to meet me, this why i keep my circle of friends kind of small

Online - Pretty much whatever the hell I want to be
Offline - Can be shy (or sometimes super shy) but will be loud if excited or ticked off >_<

I usually act more like a clown online than offline, irl I show a more serious side.

Online I only have one personality which is a cheerful personality. In real life it all depends on the context and situation. I think its normal to have different personalities online and offline though.

I think I'm pretty much the same in either. The online friends I met irl said I really wasn't that different. Either way online or offline I still get nervous around people that I don't know.

I'm an extremely shy person who rarely voices one's opinions.
I'm also a very quiet person in real life. Literally. No one can hear me talk unless they're really close. It's come to that point where if I talk, everyone shits themselves.

On the internet, my confidence is slightly better, but I'm still slightly shy. I type words down more than me talking words irl. I tend to hesitate replying to posts as well.

I'm a student from Poland. Actually I'm a Belarussian guy, but play for Poland. By the way I have a question-is it possible to change a country in your profile?
Personal life is not very nice. I have no girlfriend or a big number of friends. The most of my free time I spend in the library playing OSU! or studying. I study really well since I only play OSU! and read books. Nothing else. Yeah, I'm a good student. Also, I attend all the lectures and workshops conducted in university. Now I have an IT lesson and that's why I'm sitting and typing this message.Oh, I will make my secret social over here, since only one my friend play OSU!, but he does not care about forums and topics. Here, in this classroom sitting one fancy and amazing girl. She is my ideal, but of course I'm antisocial and closed guy, whom nobody loves. I think so. So I even don't speak to her. She would be amazed If read this message. HAHAHA. Though, it's my own PC and nobody excepting you, community, will read it. The end of the story.

Pretty much the same. I prefer to become quiet both irl and on internet, but i'm more to a serious-person irl than me while on Internet... and ofc, i can be talkative if I already know you (both irl & on internet)

I'm pretty shy and introverted in real life now despite being a social person in earlier parts in my life. Now I tend to avoid talking to people very often due to very bad anxiety while being around people due to agoraphobia that was caused by panic attacks while in college (which inevitably led to depression as well, as I used to be a pretty social person despite having only a few close friends, but I digress.)

Online I'm fairly social and talkative, and often have no issues taking control of situations or events going on. I like getting to know people and am not afraid to speak my mind on topics, though I am respectful of others opinions (as I am IRL as well). IRL getting extremely bad anxiety whenever I'm around a group of people, but this isn't an issue online as I'm not physically around the people, so it doesn't trigger the panic attacks and such.

Both IRL and on the internet I'm a very modest person, and don't tend to make excuses for myself if I make mistakes, and never consider myself to be a "better" person than someone else. I treat everyone I meet with respect as long as they do the same in return.

There's more you could learn about me but honestly I feel this is good enough for a random post about how I am out of boredom.
