I tend to confuse Parsely and Cinder (similar avatars)
yes

and Maximum Spin and MaximumZero (similar names).
I do sometimes get confused when people say "Max" and aren't talking to me. Luckily there aren't any other "Spin"s, I don't think.

For me it's avatar-pairs because that's how I recognise people, although I was mildly surprised when told that there are actually separate people named "nenjin" and "nerjin".
I regularly confuse myself with you, wondering why and when I changed my avatar, name, and general posting style... wait, am I talking to myself again?

I read this board for years before registering. I knew very well that you and MZ existed. I even used your tileset for a while. And yet I used this name anyway even though it should have been obvious that this could happen! I don't know why.

I don't think I have mistaken one person for another, but I got the nickname "Eagle Eye" in school for my attention to visual detail and short term visual memory. Despite being short sighted I am very good a tracking a specific object with my glasses off even though anything beyond about 1ft is blurry.

I doubt I would be mistaken for anyone else though.

To be fair, we're both bunnies.

Also for some reasons MrRoboto75 keeps reminding me of Orange Wizard even though his avatar is neither an orange nor a wizard.

We should start another avatar fad so it'll be even harder to tell each other apart, proving we are One In Pathos.

It's usually similar avatars for me. I usually determine who's posting by avatar, out of the side of my eye, so if the colors and shapes are similar I can get confused. I rarely look at names.

Going avatarless is the true invisibility cloak.

You only adopted the avatarlessness. I was born in it, moulded by it. I went avatarless for years. Nobody cared until I put on the Bird.

I keep forgetting that's a bunch of birds and not a black crab, and then I look at it and I'm like "Oh yeah that's birds"
