Anyone else find, Asian people really speak their mind and show pride in their culture on the internet, but the Asians I know are very quiet in real life, and sometimes rude. But online, they are really loud. Is it like this with a lot of people? I just can't see some loud ass Asian at my school or neighbour hood. I'm white, not trying to be racist, just asking why you can't be the same person in real life as the internet?..

I act the same as I do on Basil, just only with my friends. I'm not comfortable with real life strangers :P.

Being Anonymous brings out what the person in real life lacks.

I speak my mind anywhere i go. Actually i insult alot of my friends in front of them but they don't really care. Although, i am very shy around new people.

I don't know many Asians IRL, but the ones I've met seem quite outgoing. Also, the Asians I've actually got to know on the internet don't seem to be "loud".

Alright, a few questions. *Do you purposely insult them? And at the shy thing, that's what I meant, you guys seem shy just around new people a lot.

because on the internet you cannot end up with a black eye when you are arrogant beyond humans patience

Falician : Alright, a few questions. Why would you insult your friends.. they probably do care. And at the shy thing, that's what I meant, you guys seem shy just around new people a lot. I mean, i'm a very loud, jokey person so they don't take me seriously. And i can't ever talk without smiling, which always makes it seems like i'm joking.
