I think it
is fair for people to be judged based on whom they are on-line to some degree. For the most part, I
don’t think people should be judged from on-line behavior. Someone could be
thought to be a jerk or really funny based off their on-line material, but when
they are in person they are completely different. Maybe that person who was
thought to be really funny has no people skills so it never shows. Also, most
people won’t get others inside jokes. If a guy was to tweet “I <3
@mybestfriendwhoisalsoaguy” just because they are really good friends and
someone was trying to find background information on that person and knew
nothing else about them, reading that tweet could lead them to believe that
they are homosexual and could possibly misjudge them if they are homophobic.
I do think
that people should be judged by whom they are on-line to some degree. Who you
are on-line and off is still a life characteristic. Someone can’t expect to
have a good reputation in they are a complete douche bag. Plus, if someone
always updates their status and tweets about wanting to party and going to
party and then see pictures of them hammered, it would probably be safe to
assume that they are a party animal, possible candidate for alcoholism.
All in all,
people shouldn’t get completely judged off of who they are online, but who you
portray to be on-line is usually at least a hint of who you are in person.
