Creo que la verdad del asunto que te cuestionas es muy simple, es un juego, un pasatiempo, algunos toman los videojuegos como su pasatiempo, otros libros, otros patinar otros andar en bicicleta, entonces esto es eso, un pasatiempo divertido para muchos, especialmente para las personas que les gusta escribir fantasía y mantener su vida real en privado .

I understood why that was a thing ages ago. Some people aren’t accepted for who they are, or living with the sadness that is their existence is just too much for them to be their actual selves 24/7. One of the advantages of a place like this is you can be whoever you want to be, and for a good number of people who want to escape their reality or simply want a “do over” they can do just that. It’s a breather for them. A way for them to feel something other than the darkness that persists so much in their real lives.

@acupaday I definitely relate to that to a point. I call this my escape from reality, but more in the sense that I see people I can relate to here that I can’t in the real world. But the people I’m talking about are the ones that believe their own fabrications, each to their own I guess.

@DHggmu People are naturally more guarded and very aware of their audience in reality. Here the openness can easily flow due to the anonymity alone, so I get how easily you could relate to people here. Those who believe their own fabrications though. There’s a lot of psychology working there. It’s all about feeding the dopamine and people go to great lengths to not ruin the source of a good time. I stopped saying “Wow. Okay” some time ago because of how devoted they can be to the character they’ve created, especially when they have supporting characters who keep feeding their fragile and hungry ego.

That's their choice, I guess I never gave that much thought. I presume the ability to be "One's self," is the draw to on-line interaction.

I wonder that too.
It must be incredibly sad and I'd imagine exhausting to keep up an act.

@Starcrossed Yeah I usually have the mindset of each to their own, but I just don’t get it. Maybe it’s because I relate to people who seem authentic.

[@dhggmu ] ever you ever actually stopped too consider some may play a character for a reason un similar worlds and use this as an escape and release from there day to day problems in there real world
DHggmu · 31-35, M
@smiler2012 Yes, because I use this place as a little escape.. except I don’t pretend to be someone I’m not, which is what my post is referring to.

I noticed that too. and it is sure scary when you realize it because the mask slips and you see the real deal. if there is someone that i know is sick, i warn my friends. sometimes they listen, sometimes they dont' and get burnt.
DHggmu · 31-35, M
@akindheart I guess some are easier to spot than others, and some people are more naive than they should be.
akindheart · 61-69, F
@DHggmu i have been online for many years. i know the players here and some have psychiatric disorders. i know for a fact. i try to warn my friends but they don't listen UNTIL they get burnt. i hate to say "I told you so" so n ow i keep my mouth shut...well try to at least
DHggmu · 31-35, M
@akindheart Unfortunately not everyone has a friend looking out for them. Sometimes the best way to learn from a mistake is to make it.

I'm a beeyatch, but a beeyatch with morals.
What character am I pretending to be ?
Excuse me, I'm just like, smh.

Well many came from iorbix a role playing fetish site
DHggmu · 31-35, M
@Lilnonames Really? I guess this place caters for them. But I did mean more the people who post clearly fabricated things to make it seem like they’re someone they’re clearly not.
