Do you imagine members as their avatars?

I don't know if I'm the only one, but whenever I see a user posting, I have a tendancy to imagine them looking like their avatar, sometimes even if I've seen their real picture before.

Anyone else do this? .____.

Re: Do you imagine members as their avatars?

Haha, yeah, before I see their pictures. The ones I really get to know I eventually associate with how they really look, like Asia, eric, Future, John, Karpbria, Lord Zero, Shetani, Slur, Yami, etc.

This is a common thing, as displayed by former threads about it.

Re: Do you imagine members as their avatars?

Déjà vu.

Well, yes, I do this everytime.
Except that I imagine members as their first avatars, unless they currently have a really good one.

Re: Do you imagine members as their avatars?

..so you see me as a girl holding an umbrella?

I only do this if the avatar is a real person, and not a drawing/animation/cartoon character. Also, it has to be a well done avatar.

Re: Do you imagine members as their avatars?

It depends on the person's avatar. If it isn't a picture of a person, then I don't really see them as it. If they have multiple people in there avatar, then I don't picture the person as that. And they have to have it for long enough... for it to sink in.

I still picture Cody as Roy though, even though his profile picture is of himself.

Re: Do you imagine members as their avatars?

To be honest, no. I usually think of every male member as a 14 year old who just finished OoT and wants to tell everyone things he's found in the game that is really old news.. Besides some of the sophisticated ones. Female members I tend to think are 16+.

Re: Do you imagine members as their avatars?

Yeah, I tend to think of peolpe as their avvys. I often don't look at names, I recognise people by their avvies. Bad habit in my opinion
