Wait, you mean people don't have online personas anymore?

[TheRedPriest]

The ONLY place I'm not me is facebook, and I hate that ##### hole to death.  Why the hell would I want to be me online when I can be someone cool and awesome?  Avatars are the only real way to use the internet.

[Winged Warrior]

Avatars are the only real way to use the internet.

And when all else fails, you can just be a dick.

[Majikn]

It's like assuming the crane position in martial arts but more floppy and sometimes hard

[Winged Warrior]

Well, There's a certain disposition that dicks are known for...

... That's what makes being a dick so effective.

I mean look at this picture of a dick.

Doesn't it just.... Strike a cord with you?

Whatever it was, it was fun. After all, it was the years of Matrix and the net was still a lawless void where you could be whatever you wanted. Residual self-image and #####.

Yeah, it was definitely fun.  A lot of it was abundantly idiotic, but laughs were had.  At the expense of others, usually.

[Captain Sanoguchi]

Remember that time Sano got banned?

[Majikn]

The exact date, actually.
