So it seems as though people think board pissing is just that, board pissing .. and not representative of how someone is in person.
Maybe it's just a little TOO easy and tempting to say something about a guy's wife online or whatever, but in person the tempation isn't so great.
I know a lot of it is just for show/entertainment (see - Serge_Oprano), but sometimes you have to wonder when you see guys flaming each other every day.
