ProBoards has sent me yet another PM regarding adult content. At least this time it wasn't a complaint, but still, not what I would call good news.
It seems that due to to abuse, they've decided that they are not going to allow us to choose our own avatars from the web anymore.. Not just us though- they are doing it across the board. Anyway, they provided me several groups of 'theme' avatars to choose from. I wasn't crazy about any of them, but I chose the one that had the widest variety to choose from.
This change will take effect at midnight, and if you had an avatar, your new one is based on some program that randomly assigns them. And yes..I am trying to appeal the decision because I don't think we have ANY that are questionable. Until then, I appreciate your patience.

April Fools, All! Sorry I can't be around to see the shocked looks on your faces.
It was all moonbeam. I swear. She... she had a sword to my neck. Claimed she would "fillet me like a fish" if I didn't help her carry out her nefarious plans.
Let us know if we gotcha! ;D

It's a great pity the right of free speech isn't based on the obligation to say something sensible.

Oh, for Pete's sake! There's nothing I hate anymore than scatter-shot discipline! If you've got a problem somewhere, handle it there. There's no need to carpet-bomb! Pro-Boards, wake up!

kman has been PM'd. Hopefully most people will take a few deep breaths before reacting. After all, you might end up looking föölish otherwise. |

Hey, I'm some unnatural cross between a blue donkey and a cat with four ears and an ice cream cone for a tail. I'll take an Easter Island head with a Hitler 'stache anyday.
