Yup. If you don't "Chose" to use that "option" you will be looked upon with scorn and suspicion. A typical RL/SL FB chat can go like this...... (Distilled from several actual conversations either me or my friends have had)

RL FBer: Hello
SL FBer: Hi
RL FBer: U have pic?
SL FBer: Yes. It is on my profile
RL FBer: I don't see it.
SL FBer: It's there. I have a blue dress on.
RL FBer: No..that's a cartoon. U have real pic of you?
SL FBer:That is me. I am an avatar in Second Life.
RL FBer: Where live U?
SL FBer: Second Life. I am an Avatar
RL FBer: I am Egyptian. Email pic?
SL FBer: There are a whole bunch in my album. Look at them all you want.
RL FBer: MSN?
SL FBer: I don't have MSN
RL:FBer: MSN, plz. Cam
SL FBer: I'm sorry, no.
RL FBer: Whore. Fuck You! Ugly Bitch! Fat Whore!
