Forum anonymity, what does it give?

Not everyone communicates online under a real name, more often people use a nickname. Forum-Grad this is one of the cozy and warm places on the World Wide Web, where communication is more like the communication of friends than friends. And yet, no matter how sincere and open people are, most often instead of names we still see nicknames, and instead of photos, avatars. Not every one of us communicates openly on our own behalf, and it is not uncommon that a girl communicates under the nickname Pink Panther in one of her favorite forums, and she already Gretta on the other.

What are we hiding, or why are we hiding? Do we open ourselves to communication in this way, or, on the contrary, hide our true faces? And what are the pluses in the anonymity of forum communication, when you communicate with the shadow? Mask, mask, open your face, or, conversely, in the mysterious light of the mystery of the fantasy image, is it easier for us to express ourselves and be what we are?

Anonymity is a kind of mask on the forum, which contributes to the liberation of the true "I". Imagine that you are present at the carnival, the mask is on you, no one knows that you are you, and it is impossible to know how you will behave? Will you communicate, dance, laugh, behave as you would like, or will you wander around the castle rooms in shadow, trying to hide what is already hidden?

Of course, anonymity is liberating. It allows you to talk more, and more openly, to discuss things that you might never allow yourself to say out loud.

When a person uses his own name on the forum, uses his photo instead of an avatar - this obliges him to correspond to his own life image. A person transfers himself as he is in life and into virtual communication.

In the case when a person communicates anonymously - he allows himself to be what he is, without thinking over the moves and without fear of what they will think about him.

On the one hand, anonymity makes communication easier, but it can be confusing. A person can get lost between his images - the image of "I am life" and "forum I". Moreover, the more a person discovers himself of the present under this mask, the more he is drawn to this mask, this is a regularity.

Sometimes people decide after a long life "in Nick" - to reveal their real name and take off the mask, what pushes them to this act? They accept themselves as they are, find themselves real and transfer their experience to life.

We found pluses in anonymity, but this does not mean that people who communicate openly play and do not show their true “I”, trying to comply with one or another framework and life principles. Although, speaking of cleanliness, everyone is inclined to play masks, both in life and on the Internet. After all, think for yourself, in any case, no matter how open a person is, the secret side of the Soul, into which he does not let everyone or does not let anyone at all, is necessarily there, but this is a completely different story.
