Default Do you think people are confused by your humour online?

I know there is a thread about this somewhere but I couldn't find it so I'm making a new one.

So do you think people mistake your personality/humour online?

I think people mistake my sarcasm and dryness for me being a bitch, when I'm honestly a lovely person

Sometimes.

I find it works both ways though, some have a laugh and others don't know they are joking, others use it as an excuse to be horrible and then use 'it was a joke' as an excuse.

I think I'm quite dry, as I am in real life. I think it was harder not to be taken seriously when I first joined because nobody really knew my personality, but I think people know when I'm joking now.

I'm full of surprises.

I'm extremely sarcastic and my humour is dryer than the Sahara. I've noticed a lot of things I say are misconstrued.

Yes definitely, I've often misunderstood people and thought they were being awful when they weren't but it's gone the other way too and people have misconstrued me when I was just trying to amuse. It probably accounts for a fair percentage of the misunderstandings on here, shame really. Apart fr using bucketfuls of emoticons to show it's just humour there's little can be done. Just maybe ask the person if you're not sure, I will be doing. Although as Josy says, the cries of it was only a joke after the event does happen a lot too. It's hard to know the difference.
