Guys I still dont get this board "persona" bullshit. What you see with me online is what you get with me in person.

Amen, Brother Gonzo!!!
I have heard for years and years (from the few friends he has) "Yeah, but Brad Shaw is a good guy offline" and "Brad isn't the same in person as on the boards."
a) who gives a fuck?
it seems to me instead of that being some defense, some reason to "let him slide", that that's MORE of a reason NOT to like the guy.
I mean if one is an asshole on- and off-line, that's bad. But how in the world is someone who is alledgedly "an asshole online, a good joe offline" any better or any different???
As a matter of fact, you have to give credit to a person who is ALWAYS an asshole as he is more true to himself and more true to others! That would put him AHEAD of a drama faker.
Either way, as you said Gonzo, I don't get these asswipes with their online personas bullshit. As far as I'm concerned someone who is a total fuckwad online is the exactly SAME person offline, whether they are faking it or real, cause only a TRUE fuckwad deep down is able to play one so convincingly.
