How true as the site stats prove that theory correct.
I feel like entering Chaotic Evil mode right now.

Maybe this should be your new icon (though it seems like...doesn't someone on the site have this avatar?):
Chaotic Good almost 95% of the time as it is my favorite. Rarely Neutral Good. Never play evil or lawful as I just can't relate to them, although I suppose personally I tend to be more lawful than chaotic. Still I tend to play what I want to be not what I actually am.
I did find a few others but unfortunately copyright prohibits reuse.

Yeah, I also liked the first one that HiddenX posted - the potato shark thingy.
But I just took the one you sent and did the best I could with it - I didn't want to tell you what avatar you should use.

Most of my old NWN players claimed they were Chaotic Neutral.
This was just an excuse to play Chaotic Stupid.

I've never really liked alignment systems as I've always felt they hindered proper role-playing; however, in cRPGs, I now almost always play as Neutral Good, bordering on Lawful Good. When I was younger, I used to go totally OCD and would try to steal everything that wasn't nailed down. After a while though, I found this made things far too easy (too much money and loot) and was also too immersion breaking. Now, I always play a kind of sickeningly goody two-shoes, just because it creates more of a challenge. I hate playing overly powerful characters.

Just wondering - isn't alignment system necessary for D&D, if anything because of Paladin like class?? If so, I think it makes sense, and I really don't mind it Kind of gives me incentive to play with the "personality/alignment" I've chosen.

I tend to agree with Kyrer, in that it's not a system I'm overly enthralled by.
I probably perform actions which could be considered to cover every one of the variations throughout the course of a game, dependent on a huge range of factors.
For example, selecting to play a rogue, I might choose Lawful good, but let's be realistic, there aren't many skills the the rogue performs which could in anyway reflect that class - except dialogues. So, there you are rescuing their cat from a tree (lawful good) while robbing their safe (chaotic evil?) but neither killing them nor refusing their reward (ture neutral).
It damages my brain trying to micro-conceptualise such issues while I'm trying to either game or story an RPG.

Chaotic good for me, 9 times out of 10.
