The first thing to admit is that my online chatting skills are very terrible. After chatting for a while, the atmosphere of the conversation becomes awkward, and both parties don't want to continue chatting.
Previously, in a news magazine, a teacher did not advocate for the establishment of parent groups. The reasons are: first, sometimes teachers don't have time to reply to parents' messages, and parents may think that the teacher is ignoring them; second, online chatting can amplify certain meanings. I deeply understand this second reason.
Online chatting is different from chatting in real life. In real life, what is said is said and gone, but in online chatting, the text and voice messages can be read and played repeatedly. If there are errors or inappropriate wording in these messages, they will be infinitely magnified by this repeated reading and playing. This is very terrible.
Furthermore, some words may have different meanings on the screen. "Hehe" is not clear in its usage in real life, but often has a sarcastic meaning on the screen. In this terrible online environment where even sending a smiley face can be suspected of hiding a knife, some responses that are quite normal in real life can be completely different on the screen.
The context in the screenshot is roughly as follows: a product wants to implement real-name authentication service, and calling the interface costs money (one dollar per request). I suggested that users should pay for this one dollar for calling the interface themselves. If a user is not willing to pay for this one dollar for calling the interface, then the user's commercial value is basically not significant.
The context in the screenshot is roughly as follows: in a group chat, the topic of a ten-year agreement came up, and then the conversation in the screenshot occurred. In a previous article in the old version of Lin Lin's miscellaneous thoughts, there is evidence in the form of a chat record screenshot from last July that this person knows about the ten-year agreement. It is normal to not know something and ask what it is in real life, but it feels different here.
Then, in the forum of the ten-year agreement, there is a post that says "What is Kaixiang?". I received a reply like "Are you joking?" when I sought cooperation with the person in charge of a blog aggregation project before.
I don't know why, but I am very sensitive to these internet words, and I am very worried about whether I have said something wrong on the internet. The sarcastic words and the ability to repeatedly read them make online chatting very terrible. (I even feel that making a phone call is better than chatting on instant messaging tools.)
Finally, instant messaging tools are only nominally instant communication. Often, when you send a message, the other party cannot reply quickly. During this time, you can see what you have sent to the other party, and ponder and savor it repeatedly. (Because I have been scolded by a teacher in real life for my words on the internet, I feel very tormented and afraid.) When you want to retract something that you find inappropriate, you realize that four minutes have already passed. This non-instant communication also has a disadvantage: when you notice that the other party has sent you a message, they may have already solved the problem. When you ask what the problem is, they won't reply.
I seem to have written before that there is a big difference between having a video call with someone on WeChat and meeting them in real life. The reason is that in real life, I can see your true appearance, not just a picture taken through a camera, transmitted over the internet, and projected onto a screen. In real life, I can see you smiling and where your eyes are, which is not possible online.
