Welcome to Gaia! ::

I clearly don't wear Damascus Armor around in RL. If I had the gold I would try to dress my avatar in gothic clothes...Because well, thats how I dress in RL. I think that a person's avatar might resemble how they look in RL, or how they wish they looked in RL. It could even be showing a certain personality trait. In any case, it does resemble them in some way.

That's what all of Gaia pretty much says.

My avatar pretty much IS me. If I could, I'd have a monkey hanging off my leg and carry around a baseball bat in a heartbeat. I'd LOVE to be a bl to dress like my avatar.

By the way, there is not such thing as "emo goth".
You are either emo, or goth.

I think that some people do try to put forth a stereotype on Gaia.... But not all people. Personally, I hat Stereotypes and I think people are unique. You shouldn't classify them. I don't like when people purposely put out these....I don't know..... attitudes, where they are obviously trying to make a name for themselves in someway. I wonder what people could say about my avatar as a reflection of my personality and how I am in the real world. Hrm..... idea

In that pic, you look like a JEDI

I don't have a problem with labels either. I'm too weird to get labeled correctly.

xd I have to say, wouldn't be the first time someone's compared me to a beardy Ewen McGreggor.

Actually.. Yes, I do judge people on their Gaian Avatars. But, I dont do it in the sense you speak of. If omeone has an avatar thats all black stuff, and looks completely awesome (say, the organization ofthe avatar, the conbination of items, the way they compliment eachother, or the fact that none of the items FLOOD any one area of the avatar). Thats what I judge on. If it looks just way too crowwded, my opinion of the person degrades, because that obviously means they think having more items is the most important thing, rather than making the avatar actually look well.

I dont know, its a thing I have when dressingmy avatar. I hate it when the colors clash, or when items clash, so I will pick one or the other. This avatar.. I actually wish I could change the Gwee color to Blue, or Black, Grey, or something like that, but really I needed the Gwee for the Dragon aspect, so I dont really care. I did care quite well though when I got those Damascus Armors. Took me forever to figure out how to adhere those to my avatar in a competent manner.

Yes, yes it would. xd

Also, a Chav is a working class urban estate person who wears cheap sports gear as a fashion and a hood for no apparant reason, enjoys hanging around newsagents making fun of folk not like them, drinks cheap alcohol and cider because it's 'buzzin' and enjoys dog fighting. Though there are the exceptions, they sometimes make fun of people like them too.

I've heard them compared to many American sub-cultures, but I honeslty wouldn't know what to compare them with. Being looked down on from other sub-cultures, yeah, I guess you could compare them to rednecks and trailer park persons.
