Kakuna, here in Brazil we use a very popular forum and social newtwork site, named Orkut.

It looks very similar to Facebook, but we have forums there too. People may join any community they like and talk there.
However, there has been one year, more or less, that people have started using Facebook and are abandoning Orkut.

But I've been using Orkut since 2004, and I am always reading and writing in the Fluminense community (which is the soccer team I support)
I just got used to talk to everyone seeing their pictures next to what they say, and their names right above. Fakes are usually seen as something somehow childish, or for vandals, who may bother everyone and remain anonymous (mainly those who support rival teams), although there are some exceptions.

Not a criticism, but maybe when I was 12 years younger, I would really enjoy using a Goku picture and identifying myself as "Goku_SSJ358", but nowadays it seems senseless. Perhaps because I face every forum community as a socializing tool, although that may not be a common sense.
You are entitled to your view on the matter. Others here feel differently about it though. Some are comfortable with showing pictures of themselves as their avatars or having part of their name in their username. Some do not. It's all personal preference with no set correct answer. For me, I like seeing what names people come up with as aliases and which pictures they choose to express themselves with, if they choose any at all. But again, nothing wrong with your viewpoint.

I know what hacked means, and I know what serious means, but I have no clue as to what hackedly serious means.

As Hallow said, it was a joke attempt.

Because I always read legitimate when people are tallking about Pokémon, and the opposite is hacked.

Sorry.

I finally finished (or ended?) that post in the pictures thread. I hope it doesn't have anything wrong, because I won't like editing it ¬¬'

Yeah, that was pretty dumb of me.

Oh you were posting it in the BMGf picture thread? That's okay, then. *sweat*

Been reading past few pages. Kinda expecting flame war, but thankfully that didn't happen.
