...I didn't think Ninetailed Fox was added as a mod for the Pokemon Hub. I thought I was forgetting about her or something. Bah, had me going for a while.

I think I'm one of the few who wasn't fooled. XD
At first I thought it was kinda weird, then I remembered how vastly different their posting styles are. XD

I wish I could switch with someone now, I remember last time. I even fooled myself, proving how absentminded I tend to be. 8D

What, is it my ability to articulate words, my rude remarks, or my common use emoticons that make my style so different from hers? ;3

She is becoming more like me :|

The fact that you tend to use better grammar than she does. :S
Nearly all of your sentences begin with a capatalized letter and end with an end mark/punctuation mark, I've not seen you use the wrong 'your' or 'than', and you use way more emoticons than z does. :S

Now, if you and me had switched, it would be slightly harder to differentiate us because of our similar posting styles. There are definitely differences on how we post, but they are rather small ones, ones that only very observant people would get.

Biggest give-away would be the length of the Username above the avy. A switch would never work between us, Gabby.

Maybe so, Derek, but tell me. When reading and replying to others' posts, do you look at the member's username or their oh-so-familiar sigs and avies?

Listen, I don't rely on Usernames to know who's posting normally. :P

I skim over the images first. If I see something I wish to reply to, I generally do look at the username just to make sure. Always did that ever since Z switched accounts. The first day she used Ninetailed Fox, she didn't say who she was but kept the same avy and sig as the ones on Zubat101. Really threw me for a loop

Ah, but now Kari has proven my point. When most people see the same image under a member's block of text over and over again, they start to associate that image with that person, rather than looking at their username to identify who made said post.

In fact, you're the only person I've met who does that, Derek. :S
It would still be worth a shot one day, I would think.

Me looking at the Username more than the Avy and Sig may be due to the fac that, for the first 6 months I was on SC, I had to use a PSP. That meant no images at all, only a white background with black text (Blue if linked). I got used to reading Usernames since that was the only thing I could do to tell who was posting what. Don't hate me because I take time to do tedious things

Wherever did you get the idea that I was hating you? :p

You called the ring I gave you 'fugly'. I worked my @ss off to buy that thing. By hating it, you, in turn, hate me ;D

Hate is a strong word, dear~
Not one I'm prepared to use when talking about you~

What, need something stronger than hate to direct towards me? How does 'loathe' or 'detest' do you?

*Starts patting his head again as she gives him another teddy bear*

*Writes Z on the teddy's back and sticks a bomb in its mouth*
Is this an attempt to get me to shut up?

Yes. In its very essence, yes.

How can I be a Gabby-wannabe if I'm not chatty? To be chatty, I must talk =/

Is that so?
