Real Life. Because you don't know any thing about a person over the internet.

Internet. I'd rather talk over a computer, than having to talk to a person with offensively unpleasant breath.

I guess I talk to people more over the internet than in real life on average. I'm rather shy in real life, like I wouldn't just walk up to someone and say "how ya doin'" in real life. But over the internet it's easier... unfortunately. :P

Definitely real life. xD

However, what with running an RPG, I've become more sociable on the internet than I ever thought I'd be.

I find myself to be more conserved in real life, but then again... who isn't..?
I'm pretty much the same guy either way though.

And I just read a post that made me want to edit this one, so...

EDIT: I also find it impossible to have a meaningful conversation with most of my friends in real life as most of them are complete dolts (as much as I love most of them, they are not very interesting or intelligent when it comes down to it). That is what I use the internet for. I think that is true for most people, and also is responsible for the simple fact that the internet population, on average, has a higher percentage of intelligent people looking for intelligent conversation. Another thing is, that most of the people who are willing to contribute to an intelligent conversation online are probably not people I would normally hang out with or associate with otherwise. I don't mean this in a condescending way either, it's just that everyone has a group of friends they hang with, and anyone outside of that group is much more alienated than they would be if they were online with the same group. It's just the way people are I suppose, our social habits aren't something I always agree with but there isn't much anyone is going to do about it :P

I think I'm more outgoing in real life. On here I barely talk to people, and in real life I talk to almost everyone if they aren't crazy people :P though a lot of times I can be more 'laid back' or shy but that depends on the person.

That person may not even be a person. XD

I guess if you are going for quantity of quality then it would be real life. Of course I talk to more people in real life on a daily basis than online, but the subject matter is generally much emptier and therefore, less memorable. If I have 50 meaningless conversations in a day with various people, and one decent one online with one person, I would call it even :P

Thats how I would be if I didn't sleep all day.
