Forum:SH Archive/How do you imagine other users?

Wookieepedia &gt; Senate Hall &gt; 

Most of the time, all you see is nicknames.

Do you visualize other users when you talk to them - here, or on IRC? And if so, can you give specific examples? -Sikon 20:29, 10 December 2006 (UTC) style="color:orange;">Roron Corobb ]] holocron 23:11, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Sure I do. I envision Jack Nebulax and I to be those two old Muppets, Waldorf and the other guy, except with red hair. And usually, I'll envision a user in relation to their avatars. Like, for instance, I envision jSarek as Pellaeon. .  .  .  .  20:39, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Statler. ;-) -- Ozzel 21:24, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Yeah. Except, we never agree on anything. .  .  .  .  22:16, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
 * I kind of imagine BobafettH23 and Joker1138 as looking like Jango and Boba Fett as kids.
 * Yeah, I picture most of you as vague figures connected to various shapes and symbols. WhiteBoy I somehow associate with a red and white Renaissance-style Italian hat, Sikon with Khoonda, and Riffsyphon with a sort of tornado-ish figure drawn with alternating blue and green lines. Not to mention Fourdot, who, surprise surprise, I envision as an angry black square with four white period signs. To name a few. --Imp 22:33, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
 * ...and I either envision Imp as a Stormtrooper or a pixelated AT-AT. Darth Culator...well, he's got his photo up. Atarumaster is John Wayne, Kuralyov is Stalin (!)... .  .  .  .  22:42, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

 * I see I need a name as Captain Fordo. 18:00, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
 * I always see Silly Dan as Thrawn for some unexplained reason. And Jabbathehuttgartogg as some guy who always dresses in Jedi outfits for school and always has a toy lightsaber on his belt and always wearing a Jabba the Hutt mask. [[User:Roron Corobb|<span

 * I always envision User:Borsk Fey'lya as, well, Borsk Fey'lya! :P Adamwankenobi 00:03, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Silly Dan has a strong visual association with Paxi Sylo and Culator with Thrawn. Everyone else is just kind of vague. Havac 01:22, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
 * User:Jaina Solo = Jaina Solo obviously.  —Xwing328 (Talk) 03:32, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

 * I got the 'Statler & Waldorf' reference for Jack & Fourdot, too, but only when they get to arguing, otherwise they're just the picture on Jack's page and a tiny black square with four dots.Tocneppil 09:56, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

 * What do I look like to you guys? 12:34, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
 * A small pre-teen in an ill-fitting Sarlaac suit. ;) But Havac ain't Kyle Katarn. He's Ewan McGreggor. .  .  .  .  21:45, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

 * How do you guys imagine me? Adamwankenobi 22:01, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Due to your name, as some vague cross of Obi-Wan and Adam from Mythbusters. Havac 22:04, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
 * A bizzare cross breed between a Wookiee and an Ewok. Or, merely what you really look like. .  .  .  .  22:19, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
 * LOL to both of you! :) A lot of people have said that I look like a younger version of Michael Moore. Adamwankenobi 22:33, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
 * I once had a UPS guy tell me I looked like Michael Moore. It took a lot of willpower not to punch him in the face. My office used Fedex and the US Mail exclusively for a few months after that. -- Darth Culator  (Talk)(Kills) 23:59, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
 * I freaked out when I first saw your current pic, Culator, because you look *EXACTLY* like a friend of mine - same hair (both style and color), beard, glasses, everything. --Azizlight 00:23, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
 * That's good to know, I thought you would say I looked like this guy. And I think Darth Culator kind of looks like an R-5 unit, since his name kind of sounds like a droid name. 19:42, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
 * lol, an R5-unit?!? Well, his hair does look vaguely like an R2-dome ;-) KEJ 09:58, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Lol! And if you ask me, you kind of look like a Jedi-cyborg in my eyes, because of your name.
 * KEJ's username always makes me think of Kevin J. Anderson. --Azizlight 01:40, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

 * This should be interesting? lol [[Image:DarthAbeonisSig2.gif|Jasca Ducato]] Sith Council Sith Campaign 22:02, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
 * I always imagine Neb as a possessing a battle scar over his eye. Four dot, you're surrounded by encyclopedias and have glasses. Riffsyphon, you kind of look like a griffin (Freud would have a field day). Not "look like", even - but now that I think of it, you're an actual griffin. Azizlight, you look like Mila Jovovich (it's that whole Fifth Element thing, I know you're a dude). Sorry. Adamwankenobi looks like the guy off the old Ditech commercials. Sikon is always shirtless.  Jaina Solo is hot(t).  Jabbathehuttgartogg is still in high school... what do I look like??? Cutch 03:30, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Cutch, are you sure you're not related to Smeagol? :) -- Riffsyphon1024 06:59, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
 * "Cutch" always makes me think of a dude on crutches. Mila Jovovich? Weird :-) --Azizlight 07:15, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Adamwankenobi looks like the guy off the old Ditech commercials. Now that was just mean. ;) Adamwankenobi 15:12, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Adamwankenobi, in my eyes, looks like Mical and Obi-Wan put together. 13:00, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

 * Four dot, you're surrounded by encyclopedias and have glasses. Actually, I'm probably one of the four users on this site that does not wear glasses. As for the encyclopedias...well, if you classify paperbacks with Bantam and Del Rey emblazoned all over them as encyclopedias, then you're right on. .  .  .  .  21:59, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Not specifically asking for appearance but considering my past in dealing with how I present myself towards others online (very...odd) but what age do I act? -- Redemption Talk [[Image:Oldrepublic.jpg|15px]] 22:11, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
 * 80. And a very angry 80 at that. .  .  .  .  02:30, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
 * I was kind of hoping for an honest estimation. -- Redemption Talk [[Image:Oldrepublic.jpg|15px]] 04:03, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Late teens. .  .  .  .  04:06, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Good guess. Typically, I'm mistaken for being in my early twenties or thirties (or even fourties) so it's become a habit to ask to obtain an estimation of how others react to your behavior. -- Redemption Talk [[Image:Oldrepublic.jpg|15px]] 05:40, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Well, obviously. And by doing so, you set yourself up in a position to "play the crowds", as it were. By setting yourself what is basically a singular task, albiet, in your case, the obtaining of images, you carve yourself a little niche, and allow age to sink back into a state of irrelevance. Naturally, Talk pages will often betray your sensibilites and age if the arguement is heated enough, and if the opponent is stupid enough. User pages also bear the same hallmarks, but only with the younger users - I'm talking the 11-13 year olds. Above that you have long-winded and hammy fanon (some late teens), then you have the shorter and more self-depricating fanon (older again), and then you have no fanon (older again). That's just the way I read it, anyway. .  .  .  .  07:49, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

 * If you believe that I am a griffin. ;) I don't seem that gargoyle-like do I? -- Riffsyphon1024 08:50, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Nothing wrong with griffins, although they do remind me of school (my school's logo was a griffin). Green Tentacle (Talk) 10:23, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Just tell me that there's at least some sort of cape involved in your mental depictions of me, and I'll be satisfied. "Above that you have long-winded and hammy fanon (some late teens), then you have the shorter and more self-depricating fanon (older again), and then you have no fanon (older again). That's just the way I read it, anyway." Very intriguing, Elipsis! Twenty-three years: I have some self-depricating fanon in my mind, but I haven't gotten it down yet, so it's no fanon. Nice accuracy. -BaronGrackle 10:31, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
 * BaronGrackle, I envision you as a brown-clad Neimoidian. Yes, that includes a cape. :P --Imp 14:24, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
 * BaronGrackle to me looks kind of like a younger Count Dooku.
 * So my utter lack of fanon makes me how old? Hmmm, I see I also apparently have the looks of Ewan MacGregor. I'll have to let the ladies know about that. Havac 18:44, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Well, to be fair, no fanon and a developed userpage would put you in low 20s. .  .  .  .  06:48, 16 December 2006 (UTC)
 * And what about the utterly minimalist? --Imp 14:52, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

What do I look like? The bare essentials to look like me are Red hair, and a bowlcut at that. I don't like fanon, but it's infectious...
 * And what about the utterly minimalist?. The sensible. The modest. .  .  .  .  22:03, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Fourdot is a very testy black square with four white period signs. For some reason I see Havac as a sentient vacuum cleaner.-- Lord Oblivion Sith holocron[[Image:Oldsith.png|30px]] 22:10, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

Be more descriptive. I imagine Fourdot as a weird quasi-Sith Lord with stark black armor that has the decal motif of a series of four blue dots. That, or a wise red-headed australian shaman kind of guy.

Imp= Stormtrooper with the shovel, kind of like this guy.

Brain40= An orange Sarlacc

Darth Oblivion= Nom Anor type

BaronGrackle= A strange imperial moff with a handlebar mustache and a brown cape. Like Zsinj, but not fat or old.

Green Tentacle= A deep green octopus or Kracken

Darth Culator= His picture

Jack Nebulax= a red-haired Morlish Veed...mixed with other various old, hotheaded people

Adamwankenobi= Weird Al Yankovic mixed with... some type of blonde, bearded character (Odd combination, I know.)

Riffsyphon= A guy with a scythe, tearing holes in space-time, and "siphoning" things into it. Kind of a "GIF" thing, from an anime cartoon

Silly Dan= an emoticon rapidly switching emotions

Azizlight= A jawa holding a mysterious mystical blue orb

Enochf= A green KOTOR 2-Ubese that appears to be melting

Star Neptune= What Neptune would look like, were it a star. Blue-glowy girl.

Redemption= A GIF of an unnamed Jedi lifting his head above some water and disappearing

KEJ= A logo kind of like the ESPN one, but in green, big, friendly letters like the ones that say, "Don't Panic". They say, "KEJ". (duh)

Users named as characters= their characters

That encompasses my layout.
 * For the record, I'm not old. Grand Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 23:06, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

Sorry.


 * Orange sarlacc?

Yes, an orange sarlacc. You use a lot of orange, and a lot of sarlacc. Go figure. Sheesh. I'm sorry if I offended anyone, but this is just the way I see it.


 * Nom Anor? I'm not offended at all, but is it only because I use his image or something else as well?-- Lord Oblivion Sith holocron[[Image:Oldsith.png|30px]] 23:53, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
 *  I imagine Fourdot as a weird quasi-Sith Lord with stark black armor that has the decal motif of a series of four blue dots. Interesting. I might try and canonise my Magnum-envisioned self in WTS... .  .  .  .  00:49, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

Mmmmmm... possibly. I kinda took that image into my brain and it seemed to associate with you. So yes.
 * Sentient vacuum cleaner for me? Wow, that's weird, but somehow not. Go figure. Havac


 * If you ask me, Vladius kind of lookes like a member of the trandoshan mercenary group.
 * Nah, Vladius is definately Lenin as a Sith Lord. -BaronGrackle 12:33, 18 December 2006 (UTC)


 * A deep green octopus or Kracken - acutally it's in honour of this tentacley thingy from the Maniac Mansion games. That's the one cowering at the back, not the evil purple one at the front. Green Tentacle (Talk) 12:49, 18 December 2006 (UTC)


 * Wow. I guess I'm pretty unimaginative. I've never thought about what other users might look like. Except Azizlight who I imagine looks like a giant walrus on the right.... no.... wait..... KEJ 14:14, 18 December 2006 (UTC)


 * I kind of see Azizlight as someone out of a Final Fantasy game.

Lenin as a Trandoshan Sith Lord with red hair? UBER!


 * Green tentacle to me kind of reminds me of the tentacle that pulled in Barada in the Skirmish of Carkoon.
 * Eh, for the people I can remember, it's as follows: Redemption = A contemplative Grievous. Fourdot = testy black box with well... four dots. Jack = Kind of a cross between Kyle Katarn and Morlish Veed... Adamwankenobi = Two words: Ewan McGregor (forgive me if I spelled it wrong...) Brian40 = Sarlacc with glasses... Darth Culator = His vampire-esque picture w/ cool glowing Chiss eyes. Baron Grackle = A scarab beetle. Don't ask. Havac = A sentient Star destroyer. Star Neptune = A green Saturn. KEJ = A guy with brown hair and freckles. Green tentacle = A cartoony... green... tentacle. Darth Oblivion = A Ringwraith. Um, I'm probably going to regret this, but what do you think of me as? -Solus 02:45, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
 * A sullustan.
 * No, i probably should not say. HappyTimeHarry 03:43, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
 * I think HappyTimeHarry looks like a sentient Christmas gift.
 * What about me? - Sikon 17:13, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
 * "a cross between Kyle Katarn and Morlish Veed". I actually like the sound of that. ;) Grand Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 21:13, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
 * HappyTimeHarry is an Uruk-Hai in a striped shirt and pants with a cane.-- Lord Oblivion Sith holocron[[Image:Oldsith.png|30px]] 21:17, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
 * I haven't really given it much thought, but there are a few that have distinct images in my head when I see their names. Imp, I see as Pellaeon. jSarek I always picture Sarek, from Star Trek, in Jedi robes and yielding a lightsaber. LOL - JMAS 21:36, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Heh, a Sullustan. Could have been worse. To me, Sikon, you remind me of an... Aragorn-esque person that is in the Star Trek universe. -Solus 21:59, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Hmm...just thought I'd release some breaking news. The four periods in my sig are in fact yellow. A la the four dot elipsis' that appear at the end of every opening crawl, except for stupid Return of the Jedi. .  .  .  .  22:02, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
