I like how Zomba's still in the GirlGAF collage :lol
Never updated it. Never will. :p

Anyway, preview of the new *full* collage, 756 avs from the collective near-20k posts of the last thread;



i'll have it clickable to the 2400x2400 version when I get it uploaded Done.
 
I'm hoping we at least keep the nice atmosphere and how well we all get along.

I'm mentally logging usernames so I can associate them with pictures. It's way harder to be mean or condescending to someone with a picture.

Hopefully we will no longer be abused by your super-brain
 
I hasn't made a blind bit of difference to me. I just think of people as being their avatars on here anyway. Users are suddenly a lot more conventional in appearance, but no more or less people :)

I am kind of a dick on the internet sometimes and I decided this year that I'm not going to be, in real life or online. I'm going to be a lot more patient and understanding with people.

On GAF, that means dealing with the fact that everyone has different preferences, reference levels, and knowledge. If someone's wrong and I happen to know the answer, I can just correct them and if they disagree, then no skin off my back.

I shouldn't be mean to people for being human or not dedicating most of their life toward a hobby and knowledge about it. That's dumb. It would be like getting condescending to someone about...vacuum cleaners.

Same. My posting style is unchanged, but I did see people as talking animals, hot chicks and video game characters when they were using non-RP avatars. Kind of funny. I really like the real pic thing, though. And, hey, welcome! I love your hair!
 
Go back to being faceless robots and pretend this never happened.

We may go back to being faceless robots, but I certainly won't be pretending this never happened.

Anyone who has participated in this thread is okay by me. Feel free to PM me, hit me up on Steam (ID is Hawkian) or email me (errr but PM me if you want my email), anytime.

I've always tried to be polite to people, even if I really really disagree. So I can't say that I've changed much either, in that regard.

I do tend to get a bit silly when I know people better though. I definitely think my posting has gotten sillier now...
 
^New theme? Most of us missed the drunk pic day. Might just do this anyway for a new pic anyway.

You don't know what ThirstyGAF is!?

Protip: Its got nothing to do with being drunk and everything to do with being Foreveralone.

Oh yeah, we should all post Steam/PSN/eggsblah IDs if we have them.

For me it's the same on both Steam and PSN: Lissar

I don't remember what the one on my Xbox is because I use it so rarely. It's not Lissar though (one of the rare times the name was taken.)

Thanks, I grew it myself! :D

On the subject of Real Pic January being cliquey, I feel that we are a clique. It can't be helped, it's the nature of how this thread works. Since there's not much to talk about our actual avatars we've been talking about whatever comes to mind. And since it's much easier to recognize the regulars than in other threads, we've come to build our own little world of inside jokes. No one else is going to get us when we talk about aliens, creepygaf, how handsome DaveDough is, how ugly la1n is, necktie gaf envy, and so forth.

That's not to say it's a bad thing. It's not like we shun other members nor do we act like we're better. And the only reason why say a newcomer can't follow our conversation is because this thread moves too damn fast. Seriously, just past an hour and we're on the second page? RP gaf is a clique who's just waiting for everyone to get on board.
 
My Steam name is just Wallach. Haven't been on Steam much lately because of Star Wars: The Old Republic, but I don't think I'm going to subscribe so it'll be back to Dredmor and Skyrim for me until Amalur comes out. I also need to play through Portal 2, finish Witcher 2 and get to the New Vegas and Deus Ex DLCs...

But 'cliquey' has such negative connotations and implies that we don't let others in. Surely there must be a better word for 'us'
The Borg?
. :P

Ezalc on both for me if anybody cares.
 
Already an OT2? I shall spend more time in here this week, since this week is my now annual vacation-to-do-nothing-but-stay-at-home-and-play-games-and-surf-the-web week!! :D
 
I'm Davedough everywhere. PS3, Steam, xlive, facebook, Google+, AIM, etc

And yes, everyone can feel free to add me. I'm a nice guy
