Some notable callous GFY characters like SleazyDream, AaronM, Amp, BradShaw, p1mpd0gg come to mind (feel free to make your own list)

I'll concede that everyone I've met from online is pretty different in person from their online personality.

Do we really believe though that a person's online demeanor is completely separate from their TRUE self?? Do webmasters who haven't met SleazyDream really believe that he's a swell guy in person, or maybe still the same rude asshole but too afraid to talk trash in person?

Surely how someone acts online must be somewhat representative of who they really are?

Anybody have any input
Online or off...I am the very same person. If you are an idiot in person then I will telll you that just as quickly as I would online.

Case in point:

Some guy approached me after the PlayboyCash party and told me I have never liked him. He invited me into his limo to party it up at a strip club. They guy refused to tell me his name. My reply was this: "If we don't get along online and you won't even tell me your name then you must be a complete dick." Then I turned around and got in Ken's limo.

Let me see...Roll with some nameless idiot or hang out with Ken Lawson for the night.....

Tough choice.
