Since I put a face on my profile picture suddenly random people follow me

What's happening? Does the algorithm change once you put a real human on there ? 🤪

Just be sure to check their IDs should you decide to pursue the matter any further.

I think it is probably because it makes you seem more real, more authentic. At least that's how I feel about it. But also it makes you seem more open and accessible.

That's why I don't usually post pics of myself anymore. I wouldn't usually show my face publicly, but I posted a lot of revealing pics of my body and had a lot of followers too. I let it get to my head, thinking I was making a lot of new friends, but it's all superficial BS. If one's not fake by catfishing, they're fake by pretending to like you when they only like you for your pics. Once I stopped posting pics of myself on here, what do you know? Most of my "friends" suddenly fell off. You probably don't need me to tell you any of this, but don't be fooled by the attention and set yourself for disappointment.

@dimfok Thanks
SW-User
@Ducky oh no ways to be fooled... Friendship is sacred to me and takes effort, time, shared experiences and dedication. This is just saliva 🤤 I'm sorry you went there though.. now you know better..
SW-User
@dimfok @Ducky I'm truly sorry for this community though, it could be better and more evolved. I understand the hunger and the loneliness all too well.
But the blindness and the audacity are killing me !!!

I think people prefer a face; they can relate to it more readily than to a blank space or a cartoon.
SW-User
@ChipmunkErnie it's a first time experience for me, never 8n the past had I used a picture either here or on EP so it's a different thing
That's why I'm an owl...
SW-User
@HootyTheNightOwl it's just the first wave and it'll pass I hope:)
@SW-User Spoiler... it doesn't...
SW-User
@HootyTheNightOwl lol then I'll get aggressive and things will settle

@MayorOfCrushtown Classic midwestern porch!
CrazyMusicLover · 31-35
The same thing used to happen to me when I posted my face in selfie threads. I ignored them.
SW-User
@CrazyMusicLover I liked the boar 🐗 pictures 😌
Are there new followers mostly men? 🥲
SW-User
@NerdyPotato you a medium ?? 🙄
@SW-User no, I'm a big potato
Moh1992 · 31-35, M
Most probably they had no interest before to figure you out with out a profile pic. Creeps likes easy hunt .
SW-User
@Moh1992 this makes sense actually..
fun4us2b · M
I never ever remember seeing you before the other day when you posted the forest photo and made some other good comments - I thought this was the idea?
SW-User
@fun4us2b I have posted some pictures but wasn't something I did often..
JohnnyNoir · 61-69, M
Not surprising. I followed because you're very interesting and it was before your pic showed up
SW-User
@JohnnyNoir thank you Johnny, I appreciate it 🙏🏽
JohnnyNoir · 61-69, M
@SW-User I'm also very jealous of your travels
SW-User
@JohnnyNoir I can understand... Yet I'm exhausted by them
Ambroseguy80 · 56-60, M
It changed so much that a bot troll account stole my photo and used it as their own. 🤷🏻‍♂️
dimfok · 26-30, M
Άλλος ένας λόγος να μην αλλάξω φώτο προφίλ :D
eMortal · M
Don't underestimate the power a woman's picture.
Some people make millions out of those.
SW-User
@eMortal bit sad it is.. I'm taking it too seriously too
Nick1 · 61-69, M
It’s your peaceful aura. 🤣
SW-User
@Nick1 yeah that must be it 👹
Nick1 · 61-69, M
@SW-User May be opening of chakras…😆
SW-User
@Nick1 that second 🥈 yes
QCDog2659 · 61-69, M
It's a mystery to me.
SW-User
@QCDog2659 like people I've never noticed or interacted with, it's creepy
QCDog2659 · 61-69, M
@SW-User A whole lot creepy.
I always followed you.
SW-User
@Sojournersoul I'm not talking about the people that I know though. I'm talking about a wave of users I can't recall their usernames even, I just remove them from followers and that's all
@SW-User I know you were talking about them.
Ya, I guess they don't like avatars!
SW-User
@unsociableAnthony yes probably 👌🏽 along with a certain irritation though
Northwest · M
Probably men 60+ or incels.
AngelKrish · 26-30, M
If i will put my face here still people will not change their perception for me lol
Earlier i did posted my face pics here but noe i don't 😂
People are getting attracted to you i feel!
SW-User
Can’t argue with mathematics 🧮 💁‍♂️
StygianKohlrabi · 46-50, M
that's interesting. I don't have that problem.
SW-User
@StygianKohlrabi must be the duck face !!
StygianKohlrabi · 46-50, M
@SW-User hmm maybe so. might be time for a new face 🤪
