How Do Avatars Affect Your Perception Of Posts?

You keep talking, Mr. Black Hole ...
But you're right, it's a general comment.
I see you as a Slozenger.
That reminds me, there used to be a poster who went by "Slozenger", and he started a thread asking how to get a picture of the barbarian like the one in Abaddon's avatar ...

Well, I notice hippies tend to think on a longterm global ecological scale (albeit many are misguided) while militaristic types tend to take a short sighted, nation specific economic view only (of course the economic is dependent on a habitable planet but that is often ignored).

I'm fairly sure there was a smiley in the post that you failed to include in the quote.

I wonder what people think of me with my avatar.
I think the question should be turned around, too. How do posts affect avatars? I can't play cIV, for example, without starting to think about all kinds of posters.
And since somebody already asked it, what image do I convey?

I would guess that people with no avatars (or with Civ avatars) would be taken less seriously because they have the look of a "newb". If you don't look at the postcount, you associate anything other than an unfarmiliar avatar with a new person or a person you've never heard of.
avatars dont really affect me as i read posts first and then look at the pretty pictures

To be honest, I think your avatar is quite creepy.

It looks like it's from furry porn, which I happen to find mucho creepy.
You sure do have a strange view of things, and their avatar dosen't look like something one of those sick people would draw{I mean really, how would you know what that stuff looks like, anyway?}. Anyway, their avatar probably indicates that they like foxes, and that there may be a possibility that there a girl; either that, or they just like how it looks. Or is it a wolf?

I have to see that everytime I see the Civ4 religious leader as an avatar in these forums I think of MobBoss.

I've seen furry porn because people have found it a good idea to show me some, and Husky's avvie could be copied straight from some of that stuff.

I get confused everytime Xanik makes serious posts. He has a lol smiley in his sig and i keep thinking he is kidding or smthing.

Kindly read my posts a bit more attentively - I said it looks like it is from furry porn, not that it is from furry porn.

I think the world would be better without crossgender avatars... why can't CivGeneral choose some samurai or something? I suppose it's not so bad if it's a well-known user.I still despise crossgender avvies. Stop it, dammit!
You lie! Well, I used to have a sciencie avatar, but a violent internet cartoon isn't likely to make people think, "Ah, a scientist!"

Does your despise extend to posters having a famous model or actress as an avatar, such as Igloodude or Dell19?
