Ooooh OK, I get you now. By "masks" I meant the normal everyday attitudes we have, these special acts we put on in real life to appear intelligent or powerful in eyes of others. What I meant by "take off your masks" is "be yourselves and don't try to appear all serious and smart because the IRL powers doesn't work here, the QUALITY of information is what matters". So if someone says something stupid, him claiming that his a professor in real life, or using 1231233 words for some very simple concept won't make what he said look any more not-stupid, if you understand. I should have used a different phrase, it may have confused someone else too, so sorry. There's no need to be tense and participate in the "who appears more serious game" because it doesn't translate well to the online world especially on an anonymous BBS, so why all the acting?

Sorry for typing it in English but I figured it would suck more if I translated it to Japanese (english is not my first language btw), but if you want I can try my best at translating it.
