Many people on this site seemed to be defined by whats in their signature or avatar. Furthermore, its as though the person in a user's av/sig can be directly associated with the user.
EX. 1 I have no clue what KC looks like. But when I watch the Boondocks, he comes to mind. Why? Because of his av/sig. EX. 2 I'm not (somewhat) a fan of Joe Budden. And everytime I see the cover to Mood Muzik, Ding comes to mind *ding* How important do you guys think it is? Discuss. |

I don't really like the idea that I'm remembered not for my actions but by just a jumble of text and images that is attatched to all of my posts. That may be just me, but it explains why I've done away with my avatar and sig; I only use my sig to link my writing, occasionally.
