"Do you feel as though you know as much about some forum posters as you do your friends even though you've never met?
I do
"
I think many 'think' they know.
But can you actually know someone you haven't met? Surely all you've created is a picture in your head based on forum posts, profiles and pictures? And perhaps the opinions of others and third hand chit chat/gossip/graffiti on toilet doors.

You can never judge a person in font, people are totally different in real life
Anyone can write stuff, because you are just looking at a screen, when it comes to looking into someone eyes, it's a different kettle of fish |

"No. You can't tell what a person is really like until you meet them in person I mean about their lives, beliefs, tastes ect
"
I can never remember what people have said. You must have a good memory or you're writing everything down  |

I swear to god there are some posters with a database of things people have said that they have to hand just so they can pull out something a poster said on the 22nd September 2009  |

I could be lol. It could just be I've got a good memory.
But I know the decor of some peoples houses, what they like for tea, what they drink, what pets they have, favourite films and music

to a certain degree yes as some people are very open on here so you have an insight into their lives.
but it's also easier to be 'someone else' in the virtual world as you have the control over what information is delivered for others to read. |

I'm too self centred to register most people, although there are a few forum posters who insist on providing us with blow by blow details of every drama in their lives. But my memory is so bad these days I just about remember usernames when I meet people in real life. Its a concern. |

I remember lots of stuff, if people don't want people to remember shit, they should refrain from posting stuff they can't remember themselves.  |

Only met one regular poster
Others, you can form an opinion by their posts but wouldn't set them in stone
And one poster (sure you know who you are ) always types what I'm thinking |

No but the forums do give away a lot about how a person thinks, their sense of humour, their personality & if they are on my level of wrirdness
so for me personally it is a great place to get to know, flirt and chat to see if i'd like to meet someone socially and/or to play |

"yes, I can almost guess what people will post "
This is true of most of the regular forumites , but whether this means one truly knows them is debatable .
It's so easy to adopt a different persona behind a keyboard , and this can be entirely different to the true personality of the individual in reality .
There are plenty on here , including ourselves , where judgement is made from forum posts .
But unless we have met someone face to face , we never really know them properly .

The forum is also a place to display the things about us that we want others to see....
It is a place of deception and freedom where we can be something that we are not normally.
Or it is a place to bare your sole.....take your pick but there is no substitute for person to person.....everything else is an illusion  |

"The ones that post on threads or use the chat rooms at unsociable hours through the week usually d*unk,
Are the people I try to remember but avoid "
And the ones that get really angry. They tend not to hang around anyway but its good to know who to avoid. |

I reckon Diamond is a nice reliable friendly lady.
She's up for a laugh but wont let you take liberties.
What you see is what you get, and she doesn't put on any aires and graces.
Can laugh at herself but there are also some signs of her insecurities, although she hides them well, she'll let you know if you over step the mark |

very interesting, I would say spot on except the insecurities bit, I would probably say I have vulnerabilities rather than insecurities

Think you can get the ' feel' for a person ( or the person they want you to feel!) but know them properly no, not till you have met someone face to face.
Some do thrive on drama and tell the world all their life history.
Takes all sorts amazes me the stuff some disclose , sometimes without realizing perhaps?! |
