And no, I'm not talking literally (at thread title)...
I mean on LI...do you judge people by the content of their posts or by the look of their profile (Avatar, username, signature etc)
Do you make a judgement after reading their posts or do you take one look at the font, the colour and the number of emoticons and make a mental judgment?
So yeah, in the interest of science, please do tell me
I've never thought of judging someone on here with regards to their avatar font or what not..I try not to judge a person on what they write either..but I may form opinion of what I read from the content of their post..
But at the end of the day I know nobody personally from this forum so I reserve judgement as people may or may not be putting on a facade on this forum and may be completely different in real life for all I know..
I know that there are living people behind all the words and such, but it's hard to form a judgement based on writing alone I guess..
Plus I tend to forget who wrote what and who's who, as some people seem to have the same avatar
me neither i dont judge realy how they REALY are ...
but i have a good imagination
and i look at how they approach people , in wich manner i mean
like this smiley >
and this smiley >
Now judge wich one is more friendly..
but you cant realy judge how people realy are , you cant look in to their hearts
And as for the onewho fears standing in front of His Lord and restrainsthe soul from impure evil desires and lusts, verily, Paradise will be his abode [79:40-41]
welll ( MY opinion ) yes the post becomes more "Attractive" but i dont mean it has to be all pink and all that wich is unreadable for some lol
if you see a whole text and it looks sooo boring and all together
i think the post wich is more attractive is the one who looks decent and clear and will have more viewers

Its about the poetry contest, say if I posted the poems with fancy fonts and all jazzed up with images etc...
People may judge based on what they see, they might not mean to but its unconsious...we see things first...well specially when it comes to posts. So I was thinking to keep all poems the same rather than jazzing them up as is my style.
lol I was just thinking personally tbh, I'd be more inclined towards a pretty post....even though I tried not to or tried to alter my judgement but thats just me I guess
I think the only kind of judgement that a person can make against a member who posts using special fonts/colours/avatar etc as opposed to one who doesn't, is that the former is perhaps showing a little vanity.
A big fat no. I hate it when people use multi-coloured text like that. It makes it harder to read.
Why can't people just use normal fonts? It's so irritating.
Vanity :| that isnt the intention at all :| just want more people to read.
But I guess I dont mean judge the member, but judge the post to be worth reading
i think the normal font is sufficient, its too much of a effort makin it all fancy and that, and like some members say it does make it harder to read
LOL ^when did he say that??
and yes this font is kwl
but the text has to be decent not like all text in one sentence lol

Lol sis, well ME (personally) i know every member more than they think i kno...(theyr name, age, location, etc) Yeh its a gangsta thang...and for judging them, well i see ther avvys first, if its sum LI avvy, it means theyr noobies or just dead, like nightstar up ther...if its gangsta it means they gangsta if its weathery it means they...science peoples, if it islamic it mean they normal, if it say text (of anything) it means they read books, if it is blank or a trick avvy, like alpha's, it means they have too much time on ther hands, and if its an avvy i ever had in the past, it means i've steped another level in gangsta (too bad i forget my previous avvys );...and same with siggys (almost)... and if they have any colored text in ther posts, i ignore that post, because its too annoyingly bright and colorful and sick, like sum post in this thread...:X ahem.. if its normal and gangsta like this , i read it, if it has one or more WHOLE paragraphs, i leave the whole thread,
