    Why in the world would your profile photo / avatar matter on this site? This isn't myspace, or friendster, or facebook is it?

    I could care less if this was MySpace, "Friendster", or Facebook same concept would apply. If can't even know(see) who is commenting me or PMing me then its creepy to even have them as a 'friend'. I don't see why people would get on a social network and not add a picture of themselves.
    Because not everyone is here to socialize. It is THEIR choice and THEIR choice only what they choose to do on this site.
    For a lot of people this is simply a tool to better themselves and that is their personal choice and no one has the right to judge them, plain and simple.

    No message + no picture = automatic decline

    And the world isn't going to collapse if you hit decline. 1 second flat.
    Just adding isn't socializing. I've had plenty add me and then they don't say diddly to me.

    I don't think I've ever not accepted a friend request. I really don't care if they choose not to post a pic or include a message. All that I have deleted after adding, due to creepiness, had pics and profile was filled out. Lack of message or pic isn't a great indication creepiness will ensue.

    Avatars and "some kind" of picture is not a problem!! and MOST people that have no profile pic has NO info on their page either.

    I have a friend that has no avatar or pic, but they socialize and are very supportive. I could care less what they look like.

    If the world isn't going to collapse then why are you getting so upset over a topic?

    Adding is not an attempt to socialize? I didn't know that sending a friend request was a "tool" that MFP has for fitness!??

    I don't care how anyone looks like either because I'm not near perfect myself but I'd like to have a face match a name!

    Can't you understand the desire for some to have some bit of anonymity? That doesn't make them creepy.

    I guess I will be the one to say that no pic != "tech unsavvy".

    I will also say this is my first post and frankly, idgaf since I don't message any of you people anyways.

    Good day.
