Self Control regarding anonymous Internet posting

[Kaymish]

never been on the end of any moderator wrath and have been a mod on some sites so i guess i pretty restrained as to what i post

I usually tend to control myself. So far I haven't face the mods wrath yet.

But this doesn't mean I don't act like my true self.

Seriously though, online I do speak my mind wholeheartedly. I just rephrase soe of it so it becomes less....corrosive.

I say what I want to say, and stop when I feel like it. Don't really exert a conscious level of control.

I control myself and don't act like an unreasonable prick.

I was halfway through this rant when I stopped myself, exited the page, and went back to my game. Is it the my Fanboy Fanaticism is fading (I doubt it, as I will still defend things to the bitter end) or is it more that my expectations are so diminished each week that I have stopped caring. (It may also possibly be that I didn't expect my post would survive the ban-hammer very long)

So I ask you fellow Escapees, in the relatively anonymous world of the interwebz where your Avatar and Nickname are your only identification, do you say whatever comes to mind, or control yourself?

I've done that many times, actually. I'll be all pissed and ranting then start to realise I'm getting way too heated over it. Sometimes I just delete and ignore, other times I try to rewrite it less strongly if I need to make a reply.

I generally say the same sought of things I would in real life. Only time I censor myself is to prevent a ban. The quitting the message bit usually just means you mind caught up with you and realised a message would change nothing and just waste your time.

I dont really control myself. In general im just not an asshole who does stuff that gets me banned. But that doesnt mean im not an asshole....

 

[EightGaugeHippo]

control my self becasue I act my age and dont get pleaseure from being anoying to people or seeing how many swear words i can string together to support an arguement.

Feh, I attempt to conduct myself pleasantly, but I do say what's on my mind.
