Some people stole my signature on another website.

I was not pleased at all, partly because they had missed the punchline and taken it at face value.

I have a literal one. Somebody on this site, I'll leave you to find out who, has a TF2 avatar that I made myself. That said, they didn't steal it, I made it for them as a wallpaper request and they adopted it as an avatar too.

Otherwise, can't say that's ever happened to me, everything I wear or do is pretty unique among my friends and family :D.

Someone on youtube stole Tuddle.

And I can't get a facebook account because me, my mom and my dad all share
the same e-mail address. My mom has a facebook account using that e-mail.
So unless I get my own e-mail, I can't get a facebook account.
Is that really that much of a problem? xD

And I'm ashamed to say that I stole that .gif avatar with a combine turning its head back and forth and used it on my school's forums. *whistles*
Yes it is a problem, because all the cool kids have facebook.
So... get a new email address?

Also, sharing with your parents could get extremely awkward in the future. I know I'd hate to have all of my messages, purchases, and newsletter subscriptions visible to them.

A tau battle suit, doi... i wouldnt steal it anyway, animated avatars took love and care to create stealing them is callous, very nice avatar though.

"You wouldnt steal a baby... BUT YOU WOULD STEAL AN AVATAR!"

People best not touch my avatar, no one yet has but i regard my dads home themed avatar collection as priceless, need a gone gonzo change though.

My avatar before this one was indeed shared with someone else, by complete fluke. Turns out both of us were Golden Sun fanboys... After some discussion, I agreed to change mine, but am now bound to keep it as it is until he finds a fifth Golden Sun fan, thus freeing me from my current form as a Jupiter Djinni.

It would bother me if someone was using the same avatar as me, I made this one myself so they blatently ripped it off me without asking.

And for those who care my avatar is this Duty guy
He's from the STALKER games.

Again my Username is unique to me so They would have stolen that and all.

I just wear black shit and a band T-shirt, pretty generic so allot of people were the same, probably not the same band though.
Completly off topic, but is that key bindings I see in the bottom left of that screenshot? Is that is Call of Prypiat or is it a mod?

Um, posting on topic because I'd feel guilty just asking the above, my username is (as far as I know) unique to me, nobody's stollen it yet. I use it in quite a lot of things from forum names to MMORPG character names. And I don't have an avatar yet, but if I upload one I'll make it myself, so anybody copying it will be found and be spammed to death.

Oh god, I recently signed up for Skype (I know, I know) and my username was taken by some random in Germany. Honestly, what. I was annoyed at that. No one would steal my avatar because I made it and it is pretty bad anyway.

You share an email address? In a time where most people on the internet have at least 2 that really surprises me.

I know there's someone else out there on DeviantArt with my username, but since I stole it from her, and she's an ex who I really don't like, I'm fine with it. I use it more anyway.

I don't think I've ever seen anyone with this exact avatar, which is weird given how generic it is. I guess people just don't like generic anonymity.

Is that a tau xv8 crisis battlesuit I see there :D?
And back to the topic: Yes I'm deeply offended when I can't use Phoenix or Phoenixlight to register with something because some gay has taken it.
Why yes it is! ^^

Finally, one of the few people with taste...
And yeah, this wasn't even my original avatar. I had a different image of a crisis suit but something buggered up and I found this one. I prefer it.

Whenever someone tells me that I did something that isnt true (or anything that this fits in),I act surprised and look at the guy and just say,"Realy!Why wasnt I aware of this!?"And now im seeing other people do that.

Back when I had General Grievous as my avatar there was another guy who had a headshot of GG as his avatar but his account was older than mine and we were using two different pictures so it was cool. Then I had the chupacabra which was pretty uniique, and then I wanted a gif then I stole this one off the Call of Duty wiki (it was a picture on the article on the MW2 revolver) and no one has taken it yet. I'm thinking about switching back to the Chupacabra maybe I'll download GIMP and make it somewhat of a gif.
