Yeah, there's a phenomena known as the Golden Ratio; it's actually represented as ϕ (phi), not π (pi), and is about 1.6. It's been kicking around for a few hundred years, has been the basis for a lot of architecture and art. There's been a kind of historic tendency to quote beautiful things in nature as subscribing to the Golden Ratio too -- namely humans and mollusc shells -- but it's actually a bit of a myth.
The "sameyness" in celebrities is better described by something called koinophilia, which is a tendency for species (including ours) to prefer mates with features that are "average". It's got to do with natural selection, since unusual physical characteristics tend to be indicative of a potentially undesirable genetic variance. It's an observed recorded phenomena that people of both sexes tend to find a young, average female face the most attractive out of a line-up, and that "composite" faces (photo-morphs of multiple different faces overlaid on-top of each other to even out differences) are generally more attractive than individual faces.
It's kinda ironic when you think about it. What we consider "beautiful" is, in fact, biologically average for our species.
xD Well, it's all about talking with the right people... Unfortunately, the "standard procedures" for dealing with these things are not effective at all.
The way they set me up was to gift me an item from a hacked account, then somehow managed to access my account once from their IP.
Hehe... I'm good to see you back to normal! You were starting to scare me... If you had kept like that much longer, I would've thought you were hacked. xD
By the way, I have my accounts unbanned now, so I'm back to my regular account (Neddog was my mule). They perma-banned me for hacking, but we tracked down the people who set me up. The same ones who had been harassing me with constant trolling, spamming, and smearing my name across the GD for the past 5 months.
I was gone for about 5 days or so. Good thing I'm well connected...
