To mylot administrator. How about giving additional credits or benefits to those who use their true picture in their avatar. This we can see who is serious and true people here in mylot. I'm not saying that people who have no pictures are not true. I just observed that other member don't want to recognize because they are afraid. Other member also hide themselves to spam other members here in mylot. This is not to force our fellow member to post their pictures but also to have a strong camaraderie within the mylot community. What do you think guys?

I have never used my own picture as an avatar and have no intention of doing so. Nevertheless, I believe that it should be the choice of the member as to what type of image they display, providing that it does not contravene Mylot regulations.
I rarely take offence at what others wish to post, but I do find some of your comments to be unjustified. I have never criticised any member for their choice of avatar, and I do not expect to be the subject of such accusations purely because of my preference.
I do not spam other members at Mylot or behave in any way disrespectful towards other people, so I see no reason for my choice of avatar to be construed as indicative of that type of act.

I agree on your statement except for saying that my comments were unjustified since I put on my comments that this is not a forceful move. I cannot please every memeber of mylot. My statement were just purely suggestion and did not violate any violation. Thank you

Thank you for that valid point. In the first place, I think that everybody has a right to his/her privacy and choice such that he/she may decide not to disclose his/her true facial identity. However, there should be an incentive for those who have laid everything bare, hiding nothing, and thereby lending greater credence and life to myLot. I also use a mere avatar on other fora, such as Yahoo! Answers, but then the type of posts on those other fora are not as well regulated, giving posters an ample chance to post nonsense under a hidden identity. Using true pictures is a plus to the image of myLot. One good turn deserves another.

I agree with you. It better to have a quality members in a forums like than focusing on quantity members.

I feel that members should be free to use any picture as long as it is not objetionable. For example I liketo use a holi picturein my Avatar.

Well, I like your idea, as I use my true avatar. I have from the beginning, and I can tell you it's nothing to rave about, just the real me!

Real avatars, huh? Well, I must admit that I did have my real pic on about an hour ago but decided to use my darling, only, granddaughter's first bath as an avatar for fun. She won't know and I am not telling her mommy.....who already uses a whole gamet of these baby pictures on myspace.com/ It just appeals to met and I loved the bright color of her bath towel....lol
