Is it normal that we don't have the option of profile pictures?

Someone called me a man pretending to be a woman because I write like a 13 year old girl who's in love with boy bands. I was very much in love with them at 13 years of age, and I'm a 25 year old woman yet still have no shame in that. Stan kpop group Got7 btw!!

Anyway, Idon't mind having my pfp up if it means letting people know that I'm not a troll. I have a face, I have a life, I have a job, I have a voice!<3! Administration should give that option.

    Profile pics would be cool but people abused it like was said already.

    It would be nice if there was a photo vetting system, there’s so few people here it wouldn’t be a big job to have someone just approve photos as appropriate or not.

    Last time they had profile pics was like, 2017. I used to post my pic on my profile. Lol

    From what I was told by another user, they got rid of profile pics it because trolls kept uploading dicks, dead children, and animal abuse.

      The sad thing is that was really just 1 troll attacking the site, aside from the dick pics maybe, but perverts are welcomed openly here so idk what themanagement expected. he punished everyone else instead of doing his job

        It was really only one person? Dang. Assuming that person is long gone, perhaps it's time to bring the feature back?

          Yeah it was mainly the LGRAS guy uploading the illegal pics. I never saw any dicks on this site personally, I kinda wonder how themanagement supposedly saw any when he doesnt even notice any of the worse perversion going on here.

            People used to bitch about the trolling a lot. Sometimes he actually does like moderator stuff if enough people complain, like the disclaimer about not posting incest and beastiality stuff cause for a while like a ridiculous number of posts were all about having sex with your underage relatives or pets.

      LOL. But yeah, I get the vibe here on IIN... having the profile pic option functional is a bad call.

        I wish people were mature enough to not put up crappy profile pictures. I miss that feature.

      You once had that option here, really? This is news to me. I think profile pics are not much of a big deal on IIN. If you were interested in having a look at a user's pics you can slide into the DMs, and then if they're OK with it you can carry on with your private correspondence via some other online messaging channel of choice.

    Profile pictures were a thing, but sickos would post nasty shit and the owner removed the feature. I do kinda miss it.

    I don't put a profile pic up of any sites like this. I'd rather not have someone who knows me IRL find me on here, especially this day in age where people find a reason to take offense to anything and try to ruin people's lives over a post from a decade ago that was not considered offensive at the time. I'm not losing my job in 10 years over me posting about something that will be considered offensive then, lol.

    I recall there used to be a user who loved discussing about sex here and had a profile picture of a topless woman in her 40's-50's. It was hilarious.

      Yeah, you read some users' comments and you can't rule out that they're capable of doing such acts.

    If admin granted us that option I think I would be spending a lot more time than I should on IIN trying to figure out how some users with particular looks are capable of writing such revolting comments. You know, like reading an article/story about Ted Bundy or Jeffrey Dahmer while sparing a few secs to observe their pic in between the reads. On the other hand, there's a particular IIN user I like, whose pics I would love to see. Well, not just looking at their pics, maybe even meet them in person. I like the way she expresses herself in writing, she seems to be of a light-hearted nature, but badass.

    We used to be able to. I’d definitely set a profile picture if we still had them, I’m perfectly happy to put my face to all my posts

    I enjoyed having the option. I used to post new pictures semi-regularly. Now it's just a lost functionality of the site.
