Is it just me who wants to see who they're talking to or who you're sharing information with?
A lot of people add me who seem lovely but why don't they have a profile pic?, I have started automatically deleting because I'm not going through the whole, "are you male or female?, why have you added me?" conversation every time.
It should be a rule to have a pic on these kind of sites.
The last thing we're here to do is judge, we just want to see who's on our page, agree??

There should be a rule to have a pic on these kind of sites? Ever heard of catfish or had you pics stolen by the others? You'll never know who's behind the pic until you facetime or skype.
Are you going to verify all your social media friends pictures then? It is not a realistic request15 -
I'm more prone to add people with pics as well lol2

I think a profile pic, whether real, silly, or fake, gives a little insight into what that person is like. While I don't require MFP friends to have a profile picture, I find myself conversing more with the ones that do. And usually, the ones that never put up a picture end up falling off the wagon and never post or share on their profiles, so they end up getting deleted anyway.13

Agree 1004

How does a profile photo somehow prove a person is who they claim to be? I could lift any number of candid photos from IG or FB and look like a 'real' person. Or I could keep my Elvgren art and depend on my interactions on the forums to speak to my genuineness.11

Hmm don't agree2

PS: I don't want you to add me.27 -

Good point! A profile picture doesn't have to be of that person though. I like the ones that are NOT selfies. It helps me get an idea of what kind of person they are. That and the user name...2 -
You have no idea based on mine I am sure.2

But I like my current picture...5

Great pic TT. And spot on for why I run/obstacle/weight lift.1

I'm inclined to agree. Even though I have awesome friends on my list who don't use themselves in their profile pics, I at least know what most of them look like.
You know who else hides their identities by covering their faces? ISIS. Just sayin...
ETA - I've learned that some people take me way too seriously, so just know that I'm mostly joking. I don't really suspect anyone of being a terrorist.1 -

Oh c'mon now. I actually had you in mind when I wrote the part about having awesome friends in my list that don't use their pics. You know how much I adore you and Sweet D.3 -
We didn't take you seriously. Your 'joke' was just in poor taste @captbklee Surely you expected to be called on it?5
