Do you find more people feign their lives online then they do in real life?
Like if you claimed you had an alcohol problem and were going to sort it out, get detox, etc.
You do it for attention on the day and then spend the week trying to find an excuse to think why you actually aren’t going to do it, is it believable, how many get sucked into it?
Who gives a shyte – peeps get to know the genuine boardsters, and, therefore, their email addys blah de blah, and only then, ‘one’ really finds out the truth, eventually, and only if they want to tell you! :shock:

I think more people probably do, yes…..maybe some people magnify their own problems for attention…attention maybe they are not getting at home
Im not good at analysing behavior…. I do know for sure that some people have an online life that does not resemble anything like their “real” life. I dont know why people do that either… I have sort of come to the conclusion like anc…. what does it matter? The likelihood is I will never meet any of these people….. so if I like their online persona thats OK :D

Actually, I do the opposite – not having a pop at you, I just tend to read/watch and listen x

Is that the answer to life and the universe? Email addy’s are power?
I don’t know! I don’t want power, do you?! 8)

It seems to me your answer that emails are all knowledge of a person solves the question of life and the universe… maybe I’m wrong.
You are – you voiced that, not me, I was talking about friends, not the friggin universe ffs! :shock: :)
However, talking about the universe, it is all up there in no-where land unless you have met, or talked to on the phone, a person from here! Luckily for me, I have made some good friends from here – got enough anyway, but always nice to have more! :D
