Why do people do this?

[MrJamieMcC]

We have all encountered a steam profile with a half naked girl as their profile picture. We all know that infact they aren't girls and are just freaks. They even have their steam name as a girl.

Quick question is. Why do people do this?

And

If you do that please get a life

Thank you :)

Quick Question. Why do you care?

[MrJamieMcC]

Fair point. I just find it weird and i know some people who pretend to be a girl on this to like scam people in a sense and im just wondering is that the reason

And here we have you judging strangers on the Internet for their choice in avatar and handle. A saying comes to mind. Something about a pot throwing stones at the glass kettle.

Giving items or games to someone with a cute avatar picture, without verifying anything else, just means you (not you, but someone) have too much inventory gifts or money to blow.

They want to become "friends" with you and beg for items ;)

Because they secretly want to be girls (like Rin).

For now...

For the the OP, i can only guess that they want free items or a slightly friendlier environment, really deplorable but currently we can't stop it so why bother?

You should change your profile avatar to a half naked girl (or even better, a guy). Your old Half-Life avatar is old and boring.

They are the NSA Agents, breaking COPPA (Children's Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998) rules by invading frisky teenagers lives and spy on their gaming behaviours. Checking if they have loaded weapons and could be considered terrorists towards trying to hopelessly score with your daughter while playing Call of Duty... but getting owned instead.

You are just wierd!

old ass Pedophiles, lurking on STEAM, trying to get young naive 13 or younger boys.

The STEAM is no different then any other social network, but only difference it consist of PC gamers.

That is not too say that someone out there is trying to be friend you for evil reasons or just would like a COOP buddy, but you never know.

Naked Pic as your Profile is nice to look at, but what really lurks behind the profile.

Just my 2 cents.

((and yes, that is me with my youngest son, (now 2). I have three boys, my oldest (21) is a STEAM Member, my middle one (5) plays under my account only.))
