What really is our identity over the internet and world wide web? Are we posers, or actually portray our own unique personality with a slight twist. I think it's the case for some, who realize they're not going to be judged based on their race, religion, age, or sex. You could also look at RP or RPG (Role Playing and Role Playing Games) and see how people change their identities via the internet / web. Take for instance any MMORPG ( massive multiplayer online role playing game) such as WOW, DAOC, Everquest, etc. and see how so many millions of people are sucked in that they lose sight who they are in real life, and are "role-playing" online and becoming something else. http://www.worldofwarcraft.com How far will people take it when their identity is only known online, and their character is deleted, stripped, re-named and made fun and forced to face reality again? (I swear that never happened to me playing MMORPG's) !
