    In other words, do you make up a voice and accent in your mind if you read posts from certain users?

    no....more of a just picture of their face.

    which if someone later posts a real picture of themselves never looks anything similar to what I imagined, lol.

    no. they speak in the generic voice inside my head. its not even particularly male or female, as i seldom bother to try to determine which, anyone on the net, might happen to actually be.

    and that is, i don't even always give the words a voice at all. if the words paint a picture, that is how i see. NOT a picture of them, but of what they are saying.

    Only one I can think of is Roamy...cause sometimes she types words that phonetically illustrate her Irish accent, like using 'ta' instead of 'to'...
    Its very cute :daisy:

    Actually I pictured you having a sparrow where your penis should be. It's a big sparrow though.

    Yes I remeber I while back, when some people put audio up. Even some of the Americans, I imagined to have English type accents (in terms of my mind's eye :D). Then it emerged they had really strong Southern drawls and stuff. It was quite funny.

    Yep. Usually with American and Canadian posters.

    Other people have weird accents in my head

    I do when they use words that we rarely use in u.s., like knickers, or words that we don't use, like natter or other British words. Also if I know they are German I do.

    I do for some people, who I feel have very distinct personalities.
