¿Question #1766?
sumo: Why do the vast majority of GeekAnswerers have Avatars?

Felimid: They're practicing Hindus.
vandemonium: Global warming!
MisterCranky: A better question (and of course I'm objective) would be: Why do so few avatar holders answer GeekQuestions?
jocose: They have more geekgold than I.....
jpat: Because it takes several years for anyone to find the GeekQuestions.
kathleenryan: Because they spend a lot of time here.
Tushratta: Because.
Hubsi1w6: I don't know, but I do my part to change it.

Rina: Mine doesn't
WonderLlama: The vast majority of GeekAnythings seem to to me.
DKahnt: b/c they care
Muzza: Bloody favouritism
jtrleone: Your question is faulty. Most active geeks have avatars.

aleo09: b/c they are tenured
Ebon Wendigo: Dunno

cad614: Because they can.
Games cafe chick: I don't know that they do.....
BakeliteTM: I suspect that they bought avatars with GG
puffinge: Is this surprising in a way I'm missing?
brainrob: They're the sign of a true geek?
Helenoftroy: Those who have avatars are truly addicted to the geek and are running out of things to do here because of this obsession. Help Me!
klellingson: Probably because the people who answer questions tend to spend enough time on the Geek to actually gather the GG to buy one.
Loquutus: Because they are not as cool as me.
Grimwold: We all have too much free time, or better things we ought to be doing!!!
jellospike: Collecting GG requires the same ability than aswering questions: a lot of free time.
jasta6: ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
LemonyFresh: ?
Cavedog_pdx: Because most new users couldn't care less.
GuyHill: i dont. Please... give me some GG
skrutsch: I don't know. Why?
GrandpaDave: Because they have the GeekGold to get it.
CharlieWonka: Because they can
ssmooth: time on their hands
sourwyrm: true geeks
Claytonius Maximus: because we care?

JimPAX: Because the vast majority of Geeks have Avatars. Losers. I want real money. For games.
leece: Huh. I don't. I'm saving up for a GeekBadge.
Snappatoon: Because they're really cool
WasQ: to answer a geekquestion requires a certain level of Geekspirit that only true geeks with avatars can afford
bluebehir: Just luck I guess.
relic10: Interesting observation
Android: They know the site inside and out. It's the only way to find where to answer GeekQuestions.
meshuggener: Because they are the ones most on BGG and most apt to answer questions.
Lord_Prussian: They care enough to get one.
abimilech: Because they can't afford guitars

Karlsen: Because they can't resist adding content to BGG
Jern: I don't
batman: they spend the most time on the geek
erli: They're: 1) Old timers, 2) Spend most of their lives on BGG, and 3) hence have the most GeekGold
thoia: Those with avatars have significantly less of a life than others and we tend to answer a lot more GeekQuestions as a result.
djlg: Correlation of available time to answer questions and available time to earn gold.
heli: they're the converted
darthcliff: Yes
TakeMeToYourLizard: I don't
kennyb: good question....i am suffering from avatar envy
solove: Because they don't have things like lives, girls, etc to take up their time writing reviews ;-)
AlorielLelyn: I don't... I guess I'm in the minority, just like real life... figures.
isolated: Because they're better than us.
dbmurph22: they're enslaved to the geek
hibikir: I think that you should get 1 GG for answering 100 questions. That way, almost all geekanswererers will have avatars
Dave: Vanity.
gnomehome: Do they really ?
sumo: I don't know. I don't see a strong link between presence and contributing reviews, games and images, and a willingness to answer hundreds of questions.
jttm: You get a free Avatar if you answer enough questions
CortexBomb: Because only people who waste enough time at the Geek to get avatars have the will to waste yet more time on questions?
Debate: Because they spend all their life on the Geek, thereby accumulating GeekGold, and consequently have more time to answer lots of questions.
louiseh: Because we're the ones who spend far too much time on the site.
chaddyboy_2000: We're a dedicated bunch.
CDRodeffer: Because they care enough to spend the very best.
skelebone: Because they are the ones that are at this website the most.

Blackwind: Cause we are active in the community. Geesh.
