About this Message Board a Condition is widely Understood and equally as widely Ignored: the suffering of the Many users who post without the identity and glamour Conferred by the Pictographs beside the usernames of the Few. Their Shitposts take up less room; they are more easily scrolled by and ignored. Their Names go unremembered from page to page, thread to thread; they cannot accrue social Capital; their Identities are subject to constant Diminution. Many Avless fight the silent struggle to be Recognized on equal Grounds, and many Fail; they sink into the mire of Lurking; their Effortposts ate quickly forgotten. They number a majority of Users; however they hold next to no Power; their cruel masters bearing Avatars lord over them. Why Don’t You Buy An Avatar? the Avatarred ask with Sneers. But that is just it: The struggle of the Avatarless is of course the struggle of Economic Class. It is another way for Moneyed Interests to Express their domination over the Poor; those with Ten Dollars prove unable to Empathize with those without; why should the Avatarless wish to join the oppressor class; they should seek out their Own and Independent Space; they have an Identity of their Own which is not recognized or understood by the Mainstream Discourse

Yeah every post without an avatar is basically same user, maybe if they bought an avatar theyd stand out more

The tiers are: 1. Avatar havers - considerate people who support the site 2. Red text - temporarily embarrassed avatar havers 3. Stupid newbies - self explanatory 4. no avatar - weirdos 5. People who have the same avatar as someone else. - just chaotic. deranged people

posting skill is displayed when you get probed while sleeping so you wake up and go about ur day none-the-wiser until you accidentally look at ur rap sheet like the time you were checking out ur rear end after a hot shower and u feel a brief flash of shame

the only true way to post is enlarged and scrolled to the right so you can’t see names or avatars

I'd thought at the time that all newbies got stuck with the Stupid Newbie avatar on signup, but it just didn't happen with me. Does that function of the forum get turned on and off over time, or is it random, or what?

If you want an av, just get lucky like me and have someone buy one randomly so Lowtax can get a new spine.
