Hi friends,
How do you recognise a friend in myLot? By their usernames or avatar image or their activity? I usually recognise it by their image in the avatar... But some have some stange activity and some have different attactive activity...
Some of us have pretty good images which naturally get pictured in our mind. Some of us don't have images and they only be identified by their usernames. But some are really a tough job to identify..
Some of our friends are really identified by big responses always..
. Some one or 2 lines.. .
Tell me how you recognise your friend in my lot....?
Have a nice day..... Cheers![](/Content/images/emotes/thumbup.gif)

I would look at the avatar first since everyone's avatar is different, unique and rarely changes. I also recognize the name but I'll look at the avatar first.

Avatars do get my attention too.
This made me committing mistakes with other users. ![](/Content/images/emotes/doh.gif)

Hi phillip, well it has to be by both name and avatar as some of the avatars of my friends change quite a bit. I'm on my third already because I only just found out how to put a different one on than the original one. Then of course their names come through on email alert when they start discussions so that way I recognise the ones who still have the little green man.

hi,Phillip! I often recognize my friends here in mylot by their avatar not by their names because I'm a visual type person. I'm having difficulty in recognizing those names, most of the mylot users names are uniquely spelled. I don't know how to pronounce it right.

Hi simone,

So I really knew those names.. Thanks for your response once again... Have a nice day always... Cheers![](/Content/images/emotes/thumbup.gif)

Hi Phillip,
I consider two of them. Some of the users do not use their own image. So at those profiles I would consider the activity and profile. I do not consider the username.
But as for as mylot is considered I accept all friend requests irrespective of the avatar or name or image or anything. I accepted for friendship and I would like to continue(Shall I?).
Happy Mylotting.

Thats true and well said Capsicum. Really every friend needs response from their friend.. But In my case I am still commenting on the responses as my friends like you and rlankar really likes responding me.. So, I need to comment for them... So I have no time in responding in your discussions.... Sorry about that.
. But will respond![](/Content/images/emotes/thumbup.gif)

I do recognize the avatars but I try not to rely in them because avatars do change. I usually recognise user names immediately although they can change too! Reading the discussion or comment usually gives me a clearer idea who the person is; I have a few friends here whose comments I would not have too much trouble identifying!![](/Content/images/emotes/happy.gif)

I recognize my friend by their avatars and avatars which is have moving pictures like photos, cartoon character are really appealing. Then, I also observe a lot of users here use animals avatars and the most common are cats with interesting user names..That is why it is very hard to identify if the user is male or female unless you go to see his profile. Then, also the other got unidentified age, country and never really put their real photos..

i have a set of people that have caught my eye, they start good topics, their replies are pretty interesting too. you're one of them. and sad to say, i recognize you and everyone else in that group from their avatar. i've never been good with names, years i walk by people and they call my name or say hello, and for the life of me, i can't remember their names. terrible habit, but there you have it.

Well usually I pay attention to the "discussions my friends have started". I also pay attention to the user name and avatar. Some people I recognize instantly by their avatar because it sticks out in my mind. Others it takes me a few seconds or a minute or two to recognize them. People that I have talked to more, I recognize a lot quicker than others that I have only talked to a couple of times.

Hi radx682,
Really a different response. I feel posting these kinda responses is also a uniqueness of the person and can be easily remembered. Thanks for sharing your views. Have a nice day. Cheers...![](/Content/images/emotes/thumbup.gif)

Most of the times I recognize people by their avtar images. I tend to forget the names so this is the easiest way to recognize them. But some people do not have any avtar images. I think it is important to have an avtar image as it gives you a distinct identity. Personally I feel less inclined to respond to discussions started by people having no image in their avtar image.
Some of them I remember because of their peculiar activities like while responding some people use to punctuate their replies with bolds and italics, some people have a very unique way of replying so they can be identified with those. Some people have a certain way of greeting while ending their replies. These are all the ways that I use to recognize people in MyLot.
