With all of these users posting pictures of themselves lately and the contest, I'm starting to realize something.
When you don't know what someone looks like it leaves space for you to imagine something that you can relate to easily. And when you relate to something easily, it makes it less difficult to get to know that thing. That thing being the person. However you perceive that person to look like creates a personal connection.
When I see what users look like I feel as though I'm left with a sense of disillusionment. It kind of kills the fun in a way.

Of course it's always interesting at first but it kills the mystery and you're forced to see them as a specific thing. Don't get me wrong, I like being surprised by attractive or ugly people as much as the next guy, but it gets... boring.

Too Long; Did not Read! : Do you like the mystery of not knowing what someone looks like here?

I'm not good with faces. I always forget what people look like, so I identify people more easily by their names.
Language is a tool for efficient communication. The internet is a tool for fast communication. Do not defy both intents by posting incoherent writing.

This is true beauty.

No. I'm more comfortable when I know what people look like

Anonymity is security.

That's why I don't post real pictures of myself. You'll never see what I look like.

Frankly, I don't want to.
MegaBeanish (2014-06-20 23:46:53)
I doubt posting a pic on here would cause you any trouble in real life

Kishy-
Can't tell if good thing or bad thing.

I have this crippling fear that somebody is going to hunt me down and stalk me.

I irrationally fear the world is smaller than it actually is, leading me to believe that if people here know who I am, someone is bound to recognize me in real life.

Meh.

You guys need to loosen up. There is less than 1% chance anyone you know in real life will be on this website

More than 1%.

I understand you, perfectly.
