Default Can you tell if forum members are joking?

Most of the time I piss around but sometimes I worry that people don't get I'm joking and just think I'm being a ****.

Can you tell if members are pissing around, as I find it hard to tell with some sometimes.

I find it difficult to tell with some members and worry a lot that members don't realise I'm joking too.

Thats why I made a thread just like this

You normally come across as a right prick, good to know that most of it's a joke after all this time

I think I can mostly see when someone's joking. I can also see when someone's being insulting and disguising it with humour.

No, I cannot and really that is my problem.
I have difficulty assessing the tone or intent behind some posts and I admit I am not really a humerous person anyway so I likely do take things sometimes too seriously if things are directed towards me.

I am trying and getting better but no is the answer in the main.

Usually but not always, it's hard sometimes without facial expressions or tone of voice to go by

I can be quite an asshole in real life. I told my manager to get over himself today followed by telling him he was useless and hadn't a clue how to run a business. I've been back in this job for a week.

Rest your head in Lee's bosoms. That'll ease the pain.

That's because you don't have a sense of humour. You need one in order to find things funny.
