I know that I get along with folks more in person than online in the forums. Sometimes I try and convey my thoughts online and find that I might have offended someone (unintentionally), but the results are the same as if I had intended to insult them.

I have been on several forums and conversed with many folks, but I really exchange conversation more often after I have had the opportunity to meet them in person so they and I both learn each others mindsets and levels of humor.

In person can explain many things about people, and having a face to remember with the name makes conversing that much easier.

Online just like in real life, there are some good, some bad, and some just plain ugly types. But the world is compromised of all of us and we still need to learn how to get along as a people.
