Nate:

Another member today!  This time it is a guy of some importance, in the regard that he is a moderator on the site so that makes him have some authority over the commoners. He has also been a member of the site for a while, 2004 was his sigh up date.  If i could sum him up in one sentence it would be that he is ever the diplomat, rarely taking a side on any issue.  Does he like it?  He hasn't listened enough to make a formal decision.  Did he like the movie?  It was ok, the story was not engaging or the characters left him wanting.

Do not get me wrong, Nate is an awesome guy.  He is calm, he can take a lot of teasing and he can put on a neutral face to keep the annoying members at bay. He can dish out sarcasm unlike anyone else on the site, getting to know him is getting to know when he is serious or when he is just being sarcastic.  Observing him in chat will never let you know who Nate truly is, he is the type to never really open up or tell you what is on his mind.  The chat side of Nate is a serious guy, becoming a less frequent face in the chat as life becomes more busy.  What is he busy with?  You will never know.  In this regard he is the complete opposite of the previous member, rarely telling you what he is up to. 

He also breaks the stereotype of night members on the site.  My observation, take it as nothing more than that, is those who frequent the site at night do so because they are without any other form of entertainment, be it social engagements or other things to be busy with.  Yet he was always on more at night but he didn't seem to come there for the company of other members, he somehow seems to be above that need.  How he does it I am still trying to figure out. How is it that he is so happy to be alone?  Or is he just unwilling to admit to anything?  All i can do is guess!  He can be such a fun and silly guy, easy to make anyone laugh.  He is also very much a people person, he talks with others very easily and yet that again goes against his outward appearance of not needing any company.  If he ever will read this, I think he would laugh at me.  Isn't everyone at this point?

Observation 1: Being green sure isn't easy, but it gives you something more to stand on.
Observation 2: Being able to let everything never bother you has its perks.
Observation 3: No matter how long you've known someone online, you still truly do not know them.
