Does the avatar influence how you think of someone?

Personally for me while the avatar doesn't make that much of a difference, I can really see it doing a difference at the same time. If you use a avatar with someone sleeping for example I will definitively see you as a little bit more relaxed, even tough I don't intend to.

When I first joined the forums I thought it was kind of weird that the owner didn't have a avatar, but as time passed by I kind of understood why.



EDIT: Wait a little, Hey Remi that Remi bot, isn't it kind of representing you? If so why did you give it a avatar?

When you stop and look at a post in detail, the avatar can really characterize a post.
You also extrapolate somebody and their personality based off their avatar and posting style, simply because nothing else is known.

In this moment, I am euphoric. Not because of any phony god's blessing. But because, I am enlightened by my intelligence.

It's meant to represent our community, not me :P
