I was wondering what the members of the PBB forum would think about a 'Mugshots' thread. A thread in which forum members (optionally) post a picture of their real life self so the rest of the forum members can see what they look like and how lovely they are.

That would seem bad to do on a public forum. <_<

I don't know, I might not consider it, since its only an image with no rl name attached to it.

Truthfully, I don't want to show a picture of myself.

It's not those, "Oh, I'm so ugly." reason.

For me, is uncomfortable and unnecessary for showing the picture of myself on public World Wide Web for everyone who might decide to check this website out and see pictures of people and either ignore it and continue on or try to memorize the picture; then wants to "talk" to that person do something harmful to that specific person.

I know that I'm sounding paranoid about putting a simple picture of myself on the Web, but that one picture will be seen thousands of people. I am one of those people who puts pictures of themselves in the Internet, but I stopped doing it and I'm not planning to continue.

Furthermore, I think Mr. Ronald will not approve of that suggestion.

Suggestion? It's not a suggestion. I'm merely asking the opinions and thoughts of the forum members on the subject.

((And yet, Silvador continues to say that he is not a stalker, and we misunderstand him.

Anyway, whether it be already stated in the rules or not, I am completely against the idea. In fact, even asking the question is very invasive into someone's privacy. This isn't a social-networking forum. As such, asking for photos of someone's real-life avatar, no matter how you gloss over it, is offensive to me.

Yes, I know other members have posted their real-life pics here. In fact, I think those threads, while innocent / harmless, should be removed as well.

Anyway, my two cents.))

The concept of Anonymity is what lets people really open up in this forum; if that was to be removed I feel that the RPing would really suffer.

And I also agree with Caroline completely.

yup, the whole idea is to try and post as little personal identifying information as possible while still interacting, if that makes sense. *wondering if I stated that correctly*. basically its I like this or that, but don't you dare ask for my name or address or anything like that.

Did you hear what happened to the Blizzard employee who did that as a show of faith for Starcraft II's forums?
Within an hour he had a guy call him and rattle off his address, his wifes' name and the name of his kids.
hence, no personal identifying info.

well the short answer is that I would be against it.

I think the handsome mug Vanessa drew for me works better for the imagination. Wouldn't want to break the fantasy for anyone in here... Wink

I'm picking up some hostility in these responses, can we keep in mind that I am not asking anyone to post pictures of themselves, this thread is purely for opinion purposes.

I voted No. I don't really know if there's something in the rules against it, but aside from how I wouldn't want to post a picture of myself, I've never really liked such threads. Pretty much all the examples of such threads I've seen, have lead to a lot of sleazy and sexually suggestive comments, and quite often to request for more revealing pictures to be posted.

lmao good one!

Well Silvador people are just voicing their opinions, the aren't hostile. I, though, would not like the idea. I personally think it would ruin the sense of imagination that we get here.

I'd have to vote no as well while I'll admit such a suggestion might be ok from a conversational point of view but that would be best left to the ppl that feel they know each other well enough, and besides if that is the case then they can well do so through other means than through this website/forum.

((Well Silvador,

You bring it upon yourself. You seem to only seriously chat with the girls. You act all emo and pouty and selfish when a girl shows any sort of interest to the other characters / players in the group. And you, regularly, ask about personal information... even in such "innocent" ways as a poll to see if anyone would be willing to post pictures of themselves.

So... yeah, I am a bit defensive around you.))

OK, first of all, that 'emo and pouty and selfish' is just play. This is an RP forum, that's what people do here. Secondly, I am a considerable easygoing and playful person. The first thing you need to learn about me is to not take what I say or do too seriously. I am here to have fun, that's usually what I am trying to do.

Thirdly, if by 'personal information' you are referring to IM/screennames/emails, then I have ask a very small number of people for those. 2... maybe 3. I don't think it's 3, but it might be.) If you are referring to general personal information, that is called 'socialising'. I see nothing in the rules about casually talking to people and making friends. And even that kind of personal info I rarely inquire about unless the conversation is already on it.

Fourth, whatever it may look like, to anyone, I am not trying to get people to post photos of themselves. If I want someone to post a photo, I will outright ask them.

Now that I have cleared that out, let's get back to the topic, shall we?
