I allow a bit of my real personality to show through, but not too much.

What you see is what you get...mostly. I don't show a few aspects of my personality.

Re: OT Poll How much are you like your forum pers
Back in the days of pre-internet dial-up, an online service called PC-Link (it was dedicated to Tandy computers) took my given name and suggested the handle Rcon.
I thought, "thats a little lame, and need something with more style, right? Like Arcon, or Arkcon, or maybe Arkcon the All-powerful, ruler of the galaxy, supreme ...
"Beep", says online service, "You still there?"
"Umm...yeah, 'Arkcon', will work fine."
I'm actually pretty shy in a large group of people I don't know. Hard to make eye-contact, start a conversation, that sort of thing. But inside, I'm pretty much the same as my online personality.
