BLANK PROFILE PIC!?!? - Annoying or NOT?

I don't know why, but I find this extremely annoying. I'd rather see a pic that is not you than a blue-circle-head-outline-person. Even though, I don't really like that either.

Anyone feel the same? Or am I weird?

    I think you're worried about something that shouldn't concern you.

    It concerns me when somebody is requesting to be my friend, or when they are responding to something I post. I'd just rather see who I am conversing with. Like when you're speaking with someone and they're not looking you in the eye kind of thing. So in a sense it does concern me.

    Don't accept their FR. Or, if you find them interesting, judge them based on what they are saying and now how they look.

    It's not a matter of "Judging" anybody. I never said that. It's just nice to see who you're talking to. I finally visited my corporate office and put a lot of faces to voices. I never judged them prior to or after the fact. I'm not being negative, it's just something that I personally am not a fan of.

    Yeah. It is weird to me too, but I'm sure they have their reasons. I'm one of those annoying people who changes it daily. lol

    Lol. Definitely cooler than the standard "bathroom door style" person.

    It's nice to see who you are chatting to but really I don't care. People have their reasons for not wanting their face plastered on the internet.

    I'd rather see photos too. Photos are more exciting. I don't care if it's a Spongebob or cat photo. At least that tells something of your personality and your likes.
  • i wouldnt say it bugs me, but i find it harder to relate to them. That probably makes me sound pretty simple lol

    Have you ever considered that perhaps they are self consious about their appearence or their weight, and is waiting until they reach their goals before posting a picture of themselves?

    I know. Unfortunately, life and fitness get in the way of gaming. lol. Had some great times though.

    Very acceptable! :) I love animals!

    Me too. My hamster is awesome :D

    I personally like seeing pic when people are posting and whatnot, it is nice to get an idea of what they look like. However, since I don't have my own pic up here, I obviously understand the reasons why people don't want to post their pics. I would post my pic, I have no problem with it, but I don't for a couple reasons. 1) I don't want to get creeper friend requests messages 2) I prefer that my pic is not associated with everything I type 3) not that I post anything terrible crazy on here, but I don't know if someone who I know IRL would be on here and I don't want them being able to look up everything about me just from my pic

    I sure have. That's why I said if not a picture of themselves, than maybe a flower, dog, cartoon, flag of country, dog the bounty hunter, Joe Louis, apple pie, a panda skydiving, the "weeee" pig from the commercials, an eyeball, a foot, a box of wheat thins, or anything else.

    Right now,my only computer access is somewhere I can't add a picture.

    Once I'm up and running,I'm getting right on that.

    Yes, and for these reasons I completely understand and it makes sense. Everybody is different.

    And that is an awesome hamster :))

    I know that this is another reason, too. And like I said, I'm not bashing, or judging anybody. It's just a pet peeve. We all have them. And I love to chat with anybody, regardless of picture, color, political or religious beliefs. Im a people person :)
