This is just a general question that I've been wondering about. I don't know about y'all, but like if someone has a certain profile picture it makes me scared to do a deal with them. For instance, if someone has a Pokémon picture for example they seem kinder and more chill, but if someone has a Lil Pump picture they seem like more scary to deal with. I just wanna know how y'all feel cause personally if I see a profile picture that's like a rapper or something then I get worried to do deals with them (don't call me a hypocrit cause mine is a rapper please)

I'm a chicken bucket.

I still get sales. I sell high quality chickens but thats beyond the point.

I agree but more so only if it's a shit rapper because I then I think they have poor judgement which could lead to other things.

i mean, as long as you don't have some snuff as your picture, don't see why not.

It depends, really. If your PFP is a thonged butt or stupid spongebob meme, you might not be deemed reliable for higher risk deals.

Exactly how I feel, like booty pictures as PFP just show immaturity tbh and could just rub people the wrong way you know

I rejected a 500x500 Build from someone I wanted to buy because their Profile picture were inappropriate.

So yes it matters

I don't really take note of someone's profile picture for the most part since we already warn people if their profile pictures are innapropriate. Right now I have a default profile picture because I'm just too lazy to change it.

I can see how having some random rapper as your profile picture does make first impressions seem less professional than having an irl picture of yourself or your logo though.

There are other factors I, personally, would consider before a PFP... however, I'm sure a good portion of this forum judge a book by the cover.

Something about having yourself as your PFP makes you seem more trustworthy imo because it shows you're not afraid of showing yourself to everyone online.

Well the PFP is just the first opinion and sometimes that first opinion of someone could make or break the deal being made
