Friends, I know many of you have informed me, that someone with a similar name is also using the same little monkey avatar I have grown to love. I know many of you know me by this avatar as it is the only avatar I have used in the last 4 to 5 months and now I am perplexed. Shall I go and change my precious monkey? Or do I just leave it be and share my little guy? I do not want you all to be confused, and it has been made clear this other person does not wish to change their avatar either. So, I am starting a discussion to get a consensus on what I should do. It's all up to you my Mylot friends, majority rules. Trade my little monkey in or keep him? What say you all?

Oh yes, monkey. I was flabbergasted weeks ago when I saw a poster with the same avatar as yours. I have come to know you as my best monkey buddy. Bunny would be very sad if you change your avatar. If its gonna make you feel better, why not try to look for another monkey avatar. I will try to check some nice and cute monkey avatars for you. To tell you the truth, I am planning to change my bunny avatar as well. But I don't think its going to be a wise decision since everyone can easily identify me with the avatar I'm using right now.

I forgot to add, you will be the only monkey officially belonging as my friend. No other monkey can replace you. If I were you, I will stick with this same avatar. The more monkeys rocking around mylot, the merrier, LOL.

Oh really monkey. I didn't know that that your avatar is a reminder of your youngest. Stick with this one. No sense losing its sentimentality. Maybe, you can try to add something in your avatar. A little piece of banana sticking out of the mouth, LOL!

Oh sweet, sweet bunny. I love your avatar but I would definitely know you for your "Charms" in all that you say and do. I will look around and see if any other monkey tickles my fancy, this one just happened to remind me of my own little monkey (my youngest) that is why I choose it. :)

Misheleen you are the only monkey (girl) in my records too. And I already promised that I won't throw ice cream any more :-) I find no reason to change it. But if you have another animated avatar better than this, or with more than one monkey or anything which you find more good, I would welcome that too. Right now I am unsure about other responses and if you change the present one sometimes I may get worried or I will be more happy, I dunno, because I informed you first about the other one. Anyway let the present one be here till you come back from Cuba. Or can you suggest your other option, for a day or two. Oh..no that won't work. Thank you dear for asking.

Mmmm, I am to be blamed. I was in a misapprehension that you are leaving to Cuba this June. I know you always corrected me in my this behavior. Okay, the monkey is yours and you do what you want to do with him. But bear in mind you are answerable to 'his' questions....:-)

I admit that I have seen this other person in some other discussions and such. But I always look at the name before I do anything. No, I don't think that you should change your monkey. I like him, he is cute. The other user will probably get bored or something and stop using that avatar soon.

hi michelle, pls donot change your avatar, i have got so used to it by now. why do you have to change? i guess, you are the original and will always remain so. the originals never change, they get copied or provide inspiration to others. so, you need not bother and just hang on there. smiles.....

I say to keep your monkey for sure. I haven't seen the other one but I would look at the name anyway so I would know that it wasn't you. I love your little guy and I think he is a keeper for sure!!

Hi,im new here, but that monkey is pretty cute, haha. I think you should keep it, if your happy with it. Caues on other websites, i imediatly recognize people by thier avatar, and sometimes, i become so accustomed to the avatar that i sometimes overlook thier names. Mabey people here are like that. But why do you want to change it? Is it because you think people are going to get bored with it or something? If your not bored, thats ok, cause you can always change the stuff in your profile. On another site, my avatar was godzilla, and i change i often, but everytime i change it, i use another godzilla picture, mabey if you want to change it, you can sue another monkey picture.

well hello and welcome to Mylot. My predicament is that another user is now using the same monkey I am using causing some confusion. That is wht I was wondering whether or not to keep it.
• United States
20 Jun 07
Maybe, maybe not. I am not angry at her for using it, I mean it IS quite cute. I just don't want my friends confused.
• Jamaica
20 Jun 07
Wel, i say, keep the monkey. It sounds like you had it first. If thats the case, mabey the other user will see this topic and decide to change his/her avatar. They probably picked it cause it was so cute, but didnt know the complications that would cause eventually

I did decide to keep my baby monkey. He reminds me of my monkey boy. I was getting tons of emails from confused friends, so I thought about changing it for a minute. BUT, I like him and he likes me, so we're a team now...lol

That monkey is yours and that's all there is to it. The other one is an imposter, a fraud. There is only one mishleen monkey and he should stay. You and your monkey were here first. If you change him we won't know you. It would be like me changing mine. Where would we all be then?

I am keeping the monkey. After a very dubious and rather nasty exchange, the other user decided to change it. I was accused of being like a mob boss sending people after her... LOL can you see me as such? You keep smiling your Cheshire grin, and I will keep rocking my worries away !!

Hi misheleen! its up to you if you want to change your avatar, we will still love you in any way you want to look, but the point is all your friends here in mylot knows you in that avatar, that little monkey is so cute and for me leave it as it is and we will just be careful in giving responses if the discussion is from you or the other monkey around, but for me you still the cutest monkey of all and your the original. Being original is the best and you're the best.

I say keep him! I think its one of the cutest avatars around so don't trade! Anyway you got it first so most people will know it's you. I'd be confused if you traded him for something else. I've not seen the other 'imposter' but thanks for informing I'll check to see that the username is yours the next time I come across the avatar. Cheerio!
