Yes.

Ultrajoe is now the term i use for the boisterous person who takes over me whenever i am around other people.

Yes, it's a persona, but it's one that i use whenever i am around others. No exceptions save for... about 5 people. So im going to say my username IS me, but theres a me that i let out when alone who is much more calm and likes to read lengthy novels and snooze. Ultrajoe runs the show so that [name ommited] can relax behind the helmet, which is on even when i log off the escapist.

Of course I'm a 10 foot tall Valkyrie who works at Microsoft Customer Relations. What do you expect?

I speak on Escapist how I speak in reality, just with more vocal parts. Other than that it's really hard to say. Some people tell me I'm shorter than they expect, so that's one difference for you. I can't say I've noticed any particular difference in behaviour on and offline.

Not the whole boisterous/quiet thing, but the "putting on a mask around everyone" thing.
Can I ask why you do it?
I do it because people wouldn't readily accept who I am, and most people aren't important enough for me going through the trouble of explaining myself.

You need to be kicking someone down a well for that statement to have full impact.
Care to volunteer? :D

I can honestly tell people I put in about five seconds of thought into this name I use. Therefore to understand me you'll have to look at that little man in my picture. While he is not me he represents me. The shaved and worn head, the sullen expression, the loose fitting BDUs, even the fact he's slavic are all eriely similar to me. So there's the story of me; I really can be an abrasive jerk sometimes but other times I can be your best friend.

I have had my nickname "HydraZulu" for almost half as long as I have had the name that i was born with. (Shout-out to the people who call me "Zulu", the preferred way to shorten HydraZulu is "Hydra". There, now that we've cleared that up...)

I don't want to say I have multiple personalities, that would imply that I have multiple "me"s, however I do have several facets to myself, that usually stay seperated, and only come out one at a time. There's the excited, energetic, but clumsy me (he doesn't come out often), the calm, collected, intelligent me (he comes out when something that falls within my area of expertise needs done), and there's the "default" Jacob, the eternally tired, sarcastic, but friendly me. Most often, I come off as a mix between number 2 and number 3 online, because i am my sleepy sarcastic self, but with the opportunity to review what i am going to say before i say it.

The strangest part is when I meet people for the first time IRL that i've been talking to over the internet, they immediately know who I am. They say that I talk and act exactly the same online as I do in person, so they immediately identify me. I go to a unique online school that has field trips, so there is plenty of opportunity to meet people that i've chatted with online.

I am LewsTherin, or should I say, LewsTherin is me. Either way, expect a conquest of the world soon. Work on your swordsmanship everyone, there are still 87 spots open in my glorious body of companions!

I've heard of big egos, but an ego that is bigger than the INTERNET, that is a new one for me...The analogy, not the personality type. I know plenty of people who have egos bigger than the internet, i've just never described them that way. Nice post though.

Yes, so you can all go crazy and nuke half the planet again, right? ;)

I'm positive about life in general but somewhat of a cynic about games, particularly Sonic games :(
