    I actually prefer it if we didn't have avatars. I dunno, I guess I feel stuff like that would detract from the boards atmosphere. Thats just me though.

    Avatars are really cool as long as there's a standard size for them.

    agreed.
    and it would be just one more thing to *mod*.....blah, blah. i AM a very visual person, but i don't need pics here, i'm all for simply reading. :) i also don't want this site bogged down and being slow, so yes, i am being slefish. fcuk avatars. :D
    Stay with me...
    Let's just breathe...


    I am myself like you somehow

    I agree. But how about a notation of gender. It would save me from a lot of embarrrasing requests that I have put forward. Sidenote: Sweet Adeline, sorry! It won't happen again! ;)

    but whhhhyyyyyyyy? :p
    seriously. i just don't get it. sure, i *get* the natural curiosity factor, and/or those interested/intrigued with someone, but hey...all of this you can learn/find out getting to *know* someone, and sure...PMs. ;)

    i just think, hey, we've got this anonymous environment, people can just *be*....and how fantastic! i really adore when people don't *know* me, and judge my words, on my WORDS value. yes, shocking!


    this whole place is like a psych petri dish. it is amazing that we have this chance to be *real*....and not let preconceived views/judgements of gender/appearances/etc come into play....and one of the first things people want to know/do? share pics, know genders, etc. :p if i wasn't such a lazyarse...i would sooooo study board dynamics.

    so, after babbling....an emphatic NO on gender tags. people could lie anyway, and others would simply *use* the information to either flirt...and/or prejudge opinions based on gender. not saying flirting is a bad thing, not at all..i've had many a flirty and then some convo here...but yea, just get to KNOW people don't rely on easy answers/tags.

    i'd love to see no post counts, song titles, join dates, etc. i think it's all superfluous, and just something else people pay attnetion to and make judgments. let's be judged gfor our words alone...and our grammar/spelling/typing. :D hahaha.

    I read in another thread that the forum used to have avatars, and that they slowed up the whole forum. People would have to wait and wait to click on a thread.

    I'm glad people on here know me a little better now. I'm not good with words but I think most of the people on my buddies list now know when I'm joking, being sarcastic or being serious. That would never happen if they didn't 'know' me.

    Besides, my first impression of failedpersephone was 'cor, he seems like a nice guy'. :o So I'm all for avatars. :D

    How about a wider variety of emoticons as well?

    mookie misusing an apostrophe?! :eek:
    never thought i'd live to see that day...........:p


    um, sure. but i would hope not TOO many. yes, as much as love emoticons, i do think there can be *too* many! i've visted smaller boards and you could spend a half hour browsing, and totally forget the thought/emotion you want to convey in the process!

    i think this is the only message board in the whole internet that doesn't have avatars.

    The Pips (of Gladys Knight and the Pips fame) message board does not have avatars. It also only has two members. It's always lonely on PipsFan.com Every so often we can get lucky when a dyslexic Pepsi fan accidentally stumbles onto the site. The excitement is only brief as they usually leave immediately after I send them a welcome note with an 8x10 of myself.

    more pussy excuses? ;)
    i keeeeeeeeeedddddddddddd.

    as i've said, beyond the newish emoticon limits of course ;)...i like the board as is. i've been on other boards with emoticons and such, and sure...enjoyable...but certainly, not necessary. along with posting pics everywhere. just more to mod, mod, mod. i think keeping up with some links proves challenging here at times i imagine. :D

    That must be because that message board was up in 1985, there were no avatars back then!
