Should the use of reaction images be considered using an avatar, and by that definition be against the global rules?

No that's silly.

Only if the reaction is portrayed by an anime-looking character

How can a single post constitute avatarfagging?

Using reaction images should be considered offtopic and/or spam to be honest.
>>
>>525381
Having this opinion should result in a ban to be honest.
>>
>>525320
It's both an Avatar and an Image Macro. Both are against the rules.

That would result in half of 4chan getting banned
>>
Yes. It's avatarfagging and off-topic.

Isn't it funny that the same weebs who posts smug anime girls hates emoticons? I mean it's basically the same thing. An emoticon shows a certain emotion that the poster wants to convey, and a reaction pic does the same thing.
>>
>>525556
This applies to any reaction pic poster.
>>
Using a reaction pic is not avatarfagging. Look up the actual definition of the term before your come on here to bitch and man about reaction pics
>>
I can understand not allowing text emoticons, but why can't we have dedicated 4chan specific emotes created and circulated by users?


Like SA?

There's no actual definition of the term. This isn't some sort of scientific term, you know.
>>
>>525686
There is. You just don't know because you're newfag who came from reddit.
>>
>>525692
What, urbandictionary? Please.
There's no solid definition here on 4chan at least.
>>
>>525696
Redditor, please just shut the fuck up and lurk more. Don't post again for at least a year.
>>
>>525697
Then tell me exactly what avatarfagging is. I doubt you can do it.
>>
>>525701
No. Lurk more.
>>
if you're using the same picture/the same pictures of the same thing for every post you make, it's avatar fagging. Otherwise, it's whatever.
>>
>>525704
>I don't know so I'll just tell him to lurk more

Smug anime face posters are shitposting 99% of the time. Their opinion means jack shit.
>>
>>525701
Using a repeated set of images of the same character as a deliberate avatar for yourself. /o/ used to have a guy who would constantly post with iron giant face pictures to accompany his posts for no reason.

General exceptions are community images like wojak or pepe, since literally everyone uses them to express their emotion on a topic.

Thats the stupidest thing I've ever heard.

Isn't that what a lot of smug anime posters are doing?
>>

These should be banned too.
>>
>>525743
no. you are a fucking moron.
>>
>>525752
They should be especially banned because they're not even vaguely interesting as OC.
>>
>>525782
Smug anime girls aren't even OC, just screenshots. They need to be banned too.
>>
>>525396
image macro is only if it has text.
