Also, saying how weird it is that I think I unconsciously associate people's personality with their avatars..... and it affects how I read the tone of their post. Like if they have a cute avatar I am less likely to take offence at something they've typed than if they have some sort of sarcastic or aggressive avatar!
Anonimity (Did I spell that right?) sometimes does bring out the worst in people, doesn't it? For all I know, the person who insulted me is actually a nice person in real life.
And I recognize what you say about someone's avatar influencing my judgment of the person. Rather tricky, isn't it?

And here I was thinking I was speaking to a cat. :p For the record, I am not a drooling red froglike creature.

Sounds like you have quite a story to tell there. Do you want to share what happened?
