Edit:

I'm visual

I don't. Like (most) malls, SW is (mostly) dead.. EP ("Experience Project", the website before SW, that SW is modeled after) was the peak, the "peak mall" metaphor. Seems "Reddit" has taken over all. Personally I hate Reddit because of how restrictive it is (needing "flair" for posts? WTF??) the general inability to post unless you have experience but to get experience you need to post...DUMB. The opposite of EP and SW, but it is king now. SW, even if it is attempting to be the old EP...it won't beat Reddit. Sadly.

Usually the tone or way someone writes a post or answers posts ...

Name mostly.
I changed my avatar often.

Pro Orange demographic/ Anti Orange demographic

username

Username

Username.

Names. I have a very small circle.

User name.

I remember them via username and profile fr ._.

I'm rather impressed at how stable this community remained

Nudes

either or or their habit style of speech/posting interest

Ha, I'm terrible at remembering avatars! People change them all the time so my brain just... doesn't lock in 😂

I remember people more by our conversations, their profile, the little things they say. I guess I'm more of a vibe person than a face person

Whatever one I recognize first

Generally picture, but a few I know by name too.

SJD x

Avatar mostly.

A mixture of both but usually userpic is what stands out first for me.

Both, but their picture first and name second.

Name

Name

Via username.

The abuse🫩

Name.

The memory of our pleasant interactions here on the site, followed by an avatar or username.

Name. Avatars change.

Most by name 😀

I know them by seeing their Username

Name…as some change profile picture…

Username mostly. Many change PFPs frequently.

I haven't changed my PFP in many years. Yet I'm not normal. 😆

nudes they send me

Their names, but some by their unique typing style. Some users seem to have a certain "cadence" to the way they enter text or phrase things and even upon changing names I would still know it were them. I guess I'm maybe too observant 😯

Some of the catfish and trolls text-speak the same way as well no matter how many times they attempt to reinvent themselves as a new wheel. 🙈

nope by their act while chatting with them

Generally it’s a unique username, but sometimes it’s a combination of that and an avatar.

username

pfp's change (for some people multiple times a day it would seem, damn)
