Poll: Have you ever judged somone based on their Avatar?

[Dorian]

Yup.

Usually, if it's something like a meme, a demotivational, or something else that the Internet is chock full of, I tend to think of them as blithering idiots.

No offense to anyone! Just stating my opinion!

 

[Cab00se206]

Yes, but only Vrex360. I take it that he rather likes Elites?

 

[Zildjin81]

I guess, sometimes for fun I will try to guess the gender or age of a user although the name usually gives it away more.

Haha from your's I guessed "mail teenager"

Turns out I was right.

 

[NotAPie]

Yes, and its the ones that constantly flash between different scenes rapidly. They piss me off, and it makes me think the person possessing them has ADD.

And you are right.

 

[cobra_ky]

I remember the guy with the antiobama avatar. I judged him, he was a dick though.

"Was?"
I thought he was still around.

Anyway, not usually, and I get annoyed when people do it to me.
I am not, nor have I ever been, emo.

So fuck you.

didn't you have Lelouche before? i would've just stuck with that.

 

[Boxinatorizore]

My avatar is a picture of me! ...No really...

 

[grimsprice]

Yes, and its the ones that constantly flash between different scenes rapidly. They piss me off, and it makes me think the person possessing them has ADD.

On the other hand, people with normally animated avatars I tend to respect for some reason.

Like me?

 

[Troublesome Lagomorph]

Sometimes. Usually when the avatar is an anime girl. I mutter "a man" and see if I'm right.

I was about to answer no but then I remembered so guy on here with an anti obama icon thing on here and I pretty much instantly judged him to be a prick and after reading some of his posts I was proven right

how does being anti obama make someone a prick? i happen to strongly disagree with obama's politics, so does that make me a prick?

 

[Fingolfin High-King of the Noldor]

Yes but only when their avatar is fucking awesome.

 

[S-Unleashed]

Yeah nope.

 

[Thunderhorse31]

Only if they're particularly stupid or particularly awesome. If it's just some random image, then I barely even notice.

 

[101194]

How would the Escapist judge me on my avatar?

 

[grimsprice]

I am always judging everyone by everything.
How could you not judge me by this?

Spoiler

..Harry Potter sexually violating Zeus?

Me suplexing god! Why is that so hard to get!? *Breaks down sobbing*

..I still think it's Harry Potter doing inappropriate things to Zeus

That's what I thought too...

Yeah, i'm pretty sure thats the consensus.

why did you instantly think he was a prick?

well soon as I saw his av my first guess was that he was going to be some kinda right wing loony and after reading some of his posts I was proven right

if you support obama, that makes you a left wing loony.

My Escapist avi is particularly uninspired but I usually use one of these two on other forums:
