Why don't some myLotters use any Avatar?

Avatar makes an id look better - my avatar

I am confused. Some members of myLot are not using any Avatar. I have even noticed some members with more than 5000 posts bracketed with their id have no Avatar! Still they have myLot default Avatar with their id. I am not sure why.[em]cry[/em This is very hard to believe that these members don't know how to set an Avatar. A member who is participating in myLot discussions for a long time is supposed to know how to set a picture for his/her id and is supposed to know where the option is. Yet, some bother a little to spare little time for this act. An Avatar makes your id look even better. Correct me, if I am wrong.

May be they have no funny idea like you.In Sanskrit language Avatar means representative of God or God himself.So they avoid this.

Maybe some people feel that they do not really need an Avatar as people who have a lot of posts here with no Avatar also have a lot of friends usually on their friends list to where people here know their nick, so maybe they just do not feel that it is important. I have had the same one here for most of the time I have been active here, but I guess it is a matter of personal opinion as well.

it does look better with an avatar. look what you have there very cute marching little boy. when i joined mylot putting an avatar is the first thing i did. love to change it also every now and then. sometimes i use my own photo as my avatar and sometimes i use cartoon characters like shrek and fiona. i am sure there are valid reasons why some are not putting their own avatar. they are maybe enjoying the green default guy.

i guess some users didn't think it was important or they didn't theirs being copied by any one and starts to discredit their name. i don't know, maybe you should asked them yourself,. feels weird but for me with out avatar i don't i have an identity. avatar is something that we represent.

Maybe they don't just don't care about the fact to make their ID look better. They only care about posting, so they can get some earnings lol.
