If you mean social as in the way you can express yourself a lot more (mostly be cause my friends have the IQ of a toddler), then yes. A face-to-face conversation is much better though.

I can express myself more over the internet because there's no real consequences. If you offend someone it's not like they're going to go across the country to kick your ass >> So there's really nothing to worry about, PLUS you don't have to make eye contact, which I hate << |

It's a tie between the two. I express my feelings more online since there are less consequences, but a lot of those feelings only come up because I am social in real life. |

I'm exactly the same online and offline. ![]() Although, I'm probably a bit shy offline, but I'm the same when people get to know me a bit. |

I'm pretty much the same. I treat my friends and submit my opinions equally online and offline, and in most cases I also get treat the same way.

why would you hate eye contact? i find it very normal and I prefer when someone looks me in the eye. i'm more sociable in real life. mostly because you have a better understanding of how the other person feels by what they do and how they react. i think you can definitely bond faster with somebody in real life. |

The internet is much easier to be outgoing, for me anyway. I'm too shy in real life. XD |

Because .. they're looking at me? I just don't like it >_> Little black dots swirling around their eye and then resting on you. Constantly, for like 5-10 minutes of talking. |

Real life. All you have on the internet to express yourself are smilies emoticons, capital letters and exclamation marks. They just aren't the same as a real face... |
