I'm not knowledgeable in what those terms you used but, kappow, if I need a body guard I'm calling you!

I do this sort of but I don't do the game for that (runescape). I have heard of a great way to show your personality online and you can be someone else. (www.secondlife.com) You can even make money if you are smart. But you can also lose money. By the way, it is real money. You have to buy things to wear and you can buy houses. There is one story that a person flipped houses on their and made millions in real money by doing that! If you do that and no one buys, though, then you will have lost a lot of money, so that is why it is risky.

I tried Runescape and grew bored with it after a bit.

I'm not sure if I "live another life" online; I don't create Yahoo IDs and pretend (say) to be a woman or a gay guy to get people to "cyber" with me or even just chat. With me, what you get online is a slightly more outgoing and confident version of me; I'm more at ease talking to women online than I am "in real life." Otherwise, what you see is what you get with me, warts (not that I have any) and all.

Nope. I am pretty much the same on internet or other wise. I actually use Internet to express myself better and I am more open. In my daily world I might restrain some of my feelings but not on internet. I express myslef on internet.
