Xion44 0 Posted February 5, 2009 was wondering this..i see some folks here dont bother to do that. as a result of this, on most forums i go to, iam ending up apologizing for calling the person bro -not knowing he's a she .. i think its nice that folks take the time to fill out their profile page.. of course it isnt required for you to do so, but i always add my gender, and age. what do others think?

Andavari 1 Posted February 5, 2009 What gets confusing sometimes is when someone uses a female picture for their avatar, then to find out it's a guy. This one person on another forum I visit I had pegged as a female for at least five years, but that wasn't the case. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Xion44 0 Posted February 5, 2009 sometimes during a persons intro, id say "welcome to the forum, bro or sis" and from there, let them choose which format is best Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
New_Age 0 Posted February 5, 2009 i'm a VIP @iAudiophile.net and when we get new users i tend to greet them by only saying "Welcome to the Forums" i also seem to know if it's a guy or a girl over there by just guessing. you don't see a lot of grils knowing their Computer stuff or their Tech stuff if anything. i always seem to let every user know WHO i really am as a person/user Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

YoKenny 0 Posted February 16, 2009 Usually add my age and gender, when the options are there to add, I rarely use a avatar. Avatars are fun: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avatar_(computing) I could even be Vishnu but I am too humble. I could even be Ganesh but I won't work for peanuts. I remain your humble Shudra Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arkie_angel 0 Posted February 18, 2009 i too use to have that problem of not sure as to wather or not the user i was talkin to was m or f so i came to a point of i did not care any more of what the person was i would just type as per you profile tells your a female or a male or a it and yes if they had on gender in the profile i would talk to them just like i would talk to a women about the baby in side her if the gender was not know like hey it of dear it i was bla bla and so on i just give them what they want as to what they have in the profile and if any one said any thing about it i would just tell them well i only going by what you put in your profile so dont yeall at me its you profile Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
