    My guess is "hope" keeps people not playing but posting on the forums. For others, its a path of sad realization and closure. Grieving takes time. The worst "haters" here love the game, or did at some point.

    My avatar? Not really.

    Simply made a shot of my main.
    That's all.

    But I do notice how I can interpret other people's posts differently when they change avatar. I'll always remember the day that Kor almost captured Captain Jack Sparrow. I'll remember when the eye thingy turned into the lady. I start looking different on other peoples posts.

    i see neither my avatar or sig while typing my post, so i dont think it has any impact at all.
    even when reading the thread i dont see the avatars as they are so small; smaller than a postage stamp. the narrow fixed width and the tiny graphics and clickables tempt me to run this computer in 800x600 because thats obviously the resolution this board was designed for.

    I changed mine to Fred G. Sanford (the G. stands for Galaxy class Dummy!) and I swear I fight myself to not call every other person dummy or threaten people with five across the lip.

    When I had a dog dressed as spock as my avatar, I found myself highly logical in my responses and every once in awhile wanting a biscuit.



    So...how does your avatar affect you and how you post? Or is it your signature that affects your posts?

    Color me curious you big Dummy!

    Yeah i can say that when i had the romulan LOLcat as my avatar i wanted to tell everyone how incompetent they were and how the RSE would rule the galaxy meow lol

    with a taste for romulan ale and the occasional catnip binge :D

    Brave words from a nest of freebirths! Bah! The Jaguars deserved to die! They deviated from the True Path of Nikolai Aleksandrovitch Kerenskii. You have ignored the fact the stravag Inner Sphere surats have tried and failed whenever they have attempted to backstab the Jade Falcons.

    Funny... I heard the Jade Falcons got their heads handed to them by Mercs on a planet in Lyran Alliance space, and a Star Colonel was taken as a bondsman by the Mercenary leader.

    wth are you people talking about?!
    Like special weapons from other Star Trek games? Wondering if they can be replicated in STO even a little bit? Check this out: https://forum.arcgames.com/startrekonline/discussion/1262277/a-mostly-comprehensive-guide-to-star-trek-videogame-special-weapons-and-their-sto-equivalents

    #LegalizeAwoo

    A normie goes "Oh, what's this?"
    An otaku goes "UwU, what's this?"
    A furry goes "OwO, what's this?"
    A werewolf goes "Awoo, what's this?"

    "It's nothing personal, I just don't feel like I've gotten to know a person until I've sniffed their crotch."
    "We said 'no' to Mr. Curiosity. We're not home. Curiosity is not welcome, it is not to be invited in. Curiosity...is bad. It gets you in trouble, it gets you killed, and more importantly...it makes you poor!"
    Passion and Serenity are one.
    I gain power by understanding both.
    In the chaos of their battle, I bring order.
    I am a shadow, darkness born from light.

    See, your post as I was scanning and reading it, I had a mental image of a dog sitting between two people looking from one to the other as they talk.

    Then giving a frustrated sorta growl and biting both of them.

    So...how does your avatar affect you and how you post? Or is it your signature that affects your posts?

    Color me curious you big Dummy!
    I changed my from the generic ones Cryptic Gives you to the one you see on the left here... It's a custom made Avatar, that includes some neat special effects and of course my name across it in a purple color... very neat... When people read my posts... well that... I've no clue how they read it, but it would seem as tho I come across as a high authority, respected guy with a very strong controlling voice/command sorta say...

    And my signature... well that's a whole different story...

    And for my color options for posting... well the 2 colors I likes best... :D

    Darkorchid and gold...

    Plus I add that Italic style to my post... it's quiet neat...

    :)
