Because they like them?

I don't care what people use for their Avatar.

I mean I have venom snake drinking tea as my avatar. I'm not a brainwashed super soldier. *wink wink* but I use it because I really like it.

There are better things to worry about then why people pick their avatars. Like are they A huge jerk.

That's how I judge people

Well I use my own photos because when I used a photo of anime I got harassed. When I used a photo of the umbrella logo I got harassed when I used mic. Then I put up a funny photo that wasnt too great and I got called ugly. Then I put up a really good photo and I got called an attention ♥♥♥♥♥.

So now I jusy use moderate photos and hardly use mic. On the forums though meh. If someone calls me a guy I usually just let them, makes things easier but if it is a petty contest I just go and upload a bunch of proof photos to shut them up.

But for GUYS who use girl photos. They need to just grow up. -_- They obviously have internal issues and need the extra attention.

Same but I've never used a picture of me, they only stay within social media or between close friends. Same with mic mostly these days too, fed up of harassment.

and I don't care if people call me a guy I don't bring it up I just ignore it I'm not prepared to make a deal out of nothing.

Damn didnt realize I was quoted. xD

I deleted my post to not get involved but I mean my stance is still pretty strong on that whole thing.

Most cases I dont mind being called a guy but when someone is trying to use it as a spearhead to insult me its just so overwhelming hilarious to just go and take a selfie with my account name on a piece of paper. xD

It's a special kind of being edgy.

Either a appreciation for the person / character or a low effort bait which no one falls for at this point.

You'd be shocked how many guys fall for it still.

I know a lot of steam users try to hook up with someone using a female profile pic and never showing a proof photo (like a photo with their account name written on them or paper or doing a pose that is requested) or heard them on mic....

The question is why do guys fall for it when it's known you shouldn't believe everything on the internet.

Well, have you seen the 'have you ever had sex' or 'ever have a girlfriend" threads? An alarming amount of people who post on these forums actually had very shocking responses to that for the ages they claim they are.

It is very easy for someone to fall for a catfish when people make it so far without those types of relationships in their lives.

what I'm getting from this thread is that there's an easy way to get free stuff from steam users

Because not everybody thinks that a steam profile picture should reflect himself.
it's just a blank space. so he just put the photo of his favourite actress, OR may be photo of his dog. OR may be a natural scenery drawing, etc. Just like we set desktop wallpapers.

I know a certain user around these parts who is most definitely a dude that used a titty twitch streamer as a pfp, and if I'm not mistaken, pretends to be a girl... Perhaps he can chime in with his reasoning.

How do you know if im a girl or guy? Maybe im a girl that uses guy pic, so people take me more seriously?
