Do you base your DU crushes on the avatar
of said person, or just from their dazzling personality? For the record, I look nothing like mine. For one thing, Groucho doesn't have big boobs and green eyes.

that future good looking babies cant sustain a relationship

2. Personality.
Sometimes looks, but mostly personality and intelligence level, whether I "click" with them.

21. Having fun with people matters most.
If there's no attraction through that, the rest is pretty much pointless.

Your avatar is one of my heroes, just so's ya knows.

One of my favorite names to log on to mIRC as was juliusmarx. :)

28. No...
I base my DU crush on her personality.

I look nothing like my avatar either. My ears and teeth aren't pointy and I don't have a whole lot of hair (on my body...).

29. My avatar is definitly NOT a lady magnet.
At best older gaming nerds may go 'huh, that looks familiar'.

Only one DUer has ever even commented on it. But it made me happy when they did.

35. I can't
My eyes are not what they used to be and to tell the truth, I have no idea what/who most avatars are. I wish they were about twice the size they are now so I could make them out.
