Poll: Role-playing on AHBBS
« on: October 22, 2003, 10:24:16 AM »
This quote got me wondering...

Quote
Perhaps I feel that here on the BBS maybe some are taking out pent up anger towards the GRUNHERZ bbs character but they are taking it out on real life me, Filip...




QUESTION: Do you role-play here on the AHBBS or is it the "real" you?

What about other BBS?

I'm myself on AHBBS, but I'm mulitple personas on Muslim extremist BBS's because I'm continually getting banned from them...

I post as 'me' here.

Everywhere else Im Hawkathorne, Lord of the Dolts.  I have +16 White Death armor and the ledgendary Sword in the Butter.  I can do 35 HP of damage with one swoop of my blade, although its ineffective against the robe and wizard hat armor.  Word at the local tavern is that one must find the Olde Booke of L337 in order to subdue its wearer.

I play myself in life as I do on the BBS( a few folks I've met know that, although I might "lure" alittle in here :)  Grun is the same in person politically speaking. (Shrugs)

And as someone mentioned earlier, very high intellect with this chap and he WILL probably be your boss someday. :)

I am just me, no acting.



I wonder if some of the mean, bitter and caustic people on this board are like this all the time?


I do play D&D now and then when we can get the group together, so I save my acting for then.


My Pali has a plus5 Holy Avenger though! :D :aok

I might add, where that other thread went "downhill" was the point where fd-ski is so desparate to make Grun and his politics look so bad that he stooped to the typical liberal ploy...humiliation of ones physical attributes.

in AH im nothing like in RL.  Football (soccer to those across the pond) and AH really bring out the competitive streak in me so most people i play against probably think im a salamander.  Not that i care of course.

In RL im much more daughter marrying material, so post pics of your 18 - 22 year old daughters here for consideration....  :D

 Where is the thread that Hitech said that from your Sig?

Sounds like a fun read!

I'm pretty much the same guy in real life. I think it's easier to tell when I'm joking about something in real life though. That's how the whole "Elfenwolfe's Trolling Acadamy Class  of 2002" thing got rolling lol.

In real life, I'm much more likely to have a political discussion with someone.

In real life I'm a good conversationalist, although after a few beers, few people can get a word in edgewise on me.

I guess I'd say I'm a bit more subdued on the BBS than I am in real life.  I think that my posts as a CM are a little closer to the normal, but that's only because I'm usually focused on communicating information, and not just BSing.

Interesting question though Sandman, thanks.

I'll vouch for this.

I think Sik is the only one on this board I've ever met in person. He is as he seems.

I'm way nicer than you think.

I am myself. I don't bother with "game playing" the bbs.
