Ironically, my picture is an accurate depiction of what I'm like...I went through my most recent pics and most of them involved things I'd bought at garage sales, so I wasn't sure I should use them.
It's not a crime to offend attractive people.Floppertje said:hey dude, how about you stop offending people who are just trying to make a fun topic?
being attractive doesn't make one narcissistic.
Hmm let me google image that...Uriel-238 said:Does anyone else get boobies on their first page of Google search results for picture reduction?
Hey troll, quit flaming. You'll burn up all the pretty pictures.James Joseph Emerald said:-snip-
No, I'm not going to remember EVERYONE. There are far too many names to do that. However, there are some people who reply quite frequently and I do recognize a few. It's all in the fun. And as I mentioned, it's partially because I like seeing the TYPES of people who visit the site, warts and all. That's the reason for the unaltered pictures. Sorry if you don't see my reasoning behind this.James Joseph Emerald said:Are you seriously telling me that you're actually going to remember anyone's face from this thread? Or that you're going to constantly have this thread open and cross-reference people's posts with their pictures? And why would it have to be candid and unaltered in that case? It just don't add up.
It makes a lot more sense that the other thread inspired you to make this one because you got 10+ responses about how cute you looked. And who doesn't like to be told that? At the very least you wanted to see how hot the guys are who have been complimenting you.
Generally booth babes don't post on the Escapist. And they probably wouldn't look half as good unaltered. So you've got a very wide home-field advantage over them. I'm sure there's a part of you that's calculated all this.
This is both awesome...and utterly terrifying....Grinderbilly said:Finally got me one of them wifi things and got x-Mas going early this year...

Make a different thread then. XD I'm sure people will post!Da Chi said:I agree! Quirky get-ups are all class around here. If it wasn't for the limiting "picture of yourself RIGHT NOW" style of the topic, we'd be seeing some truly fun Insanity.Jillian Andes said:No U! ;3Mallefunction said:Girl, you are ADORABLE :333333Jillian Andes said:Snip
There are a lot of adorable Escapists! Maybe this thread is narcissistic to some, but I actually like seeing the people who post/read/visit the site. To me, it's almost like a reminder that there are real people behind the usernames and avatars. I think people forget that sometimes. Not to mention the glorious beards and top hats and other cool things to be seen and shared!
OP, Tear down this wall. Let's get ludicrous.
Just ignore the guy. Everyone else is having fun, he's the only one who isn't. Don't let him ruin yours.Mallefunction said:No, I'm not going to remember EVERYONE.

Yes, I got some compliments and I responded to them over there at that thread. Then I stopped because I didn't want the focus to ever be on that even though I thought I was just being polite. Here I have no responded to any of them at all because I DON'T want to encourage attention on myself as the OP.
I know that booth babes don't post on the Escapist, I just used them as an example of girl gamers who were much more attractive than I could ever hope to me even with makeup and alterations.
Look, stop talking as if I'm this 'evil master mind' here trying to get every man drooling over me. I made this thread for fun and for fun only. If you're not going to participate then leave already!
Well then I must appologise a it seems I broke the rules of the thread. My picture was of me out on the town. That's the most recent picture I had, I was going to post one of me now but my camera is upstairs packed away. Also, I don't think its an attention whore thread, seems like a thread made out of curiosity and well its a good cure for boredomMallefunction said:Guys, seriously...I posted this for the fun of seeing what kinds of people were here. I added the unaltered thing because let's face it, when we're at our computers being lazy fucks in the middle of the night, we tend to expose what we really look like. I prefer attaching faces over s/ns and I'm sorry that some of you think that this is solely to be an attention whore thread...but that was never my intention.
Not to sound incredibly creepy when I say this. However when I saw those pics I just wenttrollnystan said:I never wear make-up so I constantly look like a slob =P

Done and Done!Mallefunction said:Make a different thread then. XD I'm sure people will post!
The first thing that popped into my mind when I saw your picture is that you look like Faith from Mirrors Edge (not really but the red top just screamed Mirrors Edge to me) and second place was Chell from Portal.Mallefunction said:

Why, yes that is a map of Italy hanging on the wall behind me. No I don't know why it's there.
I guess the webcam does a bit of an unflattering angle, but whatever.
