I got to meet a fair few of you over the years and the one thing that did strike me was how similar all the ones that turned up are in real-life to their characters on here.
That's not a surprise though, the keyboard warriors are never going to have the balls to show their faces and interact with people without hiding behind the keyboard.Comment

Interesting article and very true I think, having met a few on-line folks in real life, from CUK, biking forums, gaming acquaintances, I can see that someone who is a complete knobber on the web can be intelligent, well spoken and generally nice in person, even MF.
I would say that I am the same person online and in real life, there are very few times where I would say something online in a forum thread or similar that I wouldn't be willing to say face to face.
Meeting someone in person gives you a different perspective to mix in with the banter on the web to determine their motive.
Waiver : This was only from a few evenings at drinks and other informal gatherings, and other people's off-line experience may differ.Never has a man been heard to say on his death bed that he wishes he'd spent more time in the office.Comment
