Avitar stealing

RANT TIME!!!!!

Ok, so I've noticed a lot of duplicate avitars flying around on this board. Quite frankly, it annoys me. Not that you care about whether I'm annoyed or not....but I care.

See, the thing is....when I am scrolling through the pages, reading what peeps have gots to say and stuff, often times I won't even bother looking at the name of who posted, I'll simply see the avatar (if they've got one, unlike me). It's just like talking to somebody...you don't focus on the person's name who's speaking, you just see their face and listen to what they have to say.

But with all these duplicate avatars, I'll be reading through a post and will think it's somebody else who's writing, usually I associate the avatar with the first person whose post I read that had that avatar....then everybody else I just consider an imposter!

So...I was wondering if people who copied avatars from someone else could perhaps have the decency to be original and use a different avatar...you probably wouldn't parade around the streets wearing a face-mask to look like someone else, well, maybe other than Nixon, but robbing banks probably isn't business-as-usual for most folks.

Anybody else feel me on this issue, or is it actually just a rant?
