Joshua Dorkin Survey: Should we Require Avatars to Participate on BP?

While I have nothing to hide, I simply don't like having a photo of myself on forums or anywhere for that matter.This is just a personal preference of mine and is something that I hope the content of my posts would offset, but I also understand that some like to see who they are talking to or reading about.At the end of the day, I'd post a real photo if required to do so, but it's a rule that can't be verified since a poster can simply post a photo of Joe Blow they find on the net so why not leave people to decide for themselves?
