Mithadan, with all respect, I don't quite get your point. Anonymity is different from lying - I think it is ok (or even wise!) not to tell everything of yourself on the internet (or in RL, for that matter!), but I don't think it's ok to lie. I just can't see why it would be more acceptable to lie to your online friends than to your RL friends.

Actually, I think this may even be a generation question. Interesting... am I just imagining or is it mostly younger posts who think of the internet as a sort of extension of normal life and thus applying more or less the same rules here and the older people who are seeing the internet as a "different universum"? Perhaps that explains something...
