I was going to comment on the red x that had replaced my avatar; however, I see the penquin is back, axe in the head, and all.
Sort of like something from the Nightmare before Christmas.

My bet is that we will have our old avatars back tomorrow, maybe even later today.

You got it, TD2K! The poor penguin can't survive long. Thankfully, penguins are a bit slow. It'll take awhile for enough axons to respond to take the critter down for good. I shall mourn her passing ... when it occurs.

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. ~ the moon mod Then ban them and not all the others that didn't post vile avatars. This is silliness imo. Punishing eveyone because a few made bad choices in their avatar decision choices. |

Wow, Kreepy, that's a great match for your moniker and your title!
This is stupid. Not happening at other boards.

Oh, so it's not an ProBoards Rules Change joke  I don't see the problem. Don't they realize their own avatars are suggestive? The bumblebee one in particular is pretty pornographic, and the penguin with the hatchet - OMG THEY KILLED TEH CUTE!!! And mine - hello, pig teats?! What are they trying to say?  |

Hey I did the best I could with the Avatars but judging by all the PMs I got @66 2/3 are happy with them and I am trying to work on the @33 1/3 who are the "unhappy" ones but pls calling me all those @#%$#@ is not going to make the changes any faster. I only have ten finger and ten toes to type with..
OOOOOOOOOOps excuse me just got some nasty emails on this subject again..,be back in a few

If they're going to do a text change, they should come up with a funnier one. Like "EF" or "Emergency Fund" could become "Saving is for suckers."

I'll wait ;D Sorry I just deleted it...but whoever is cloning you and sending PMs impersonating you with your usual comments is the best that I have ever seen here..but you will be the first to know if I get another one and the PM said "Strong Letter To Follow" so I may be getting a follow up soon, I think?? BTW I like your Avatar very fitting IMHO & How is your ProBoards Rules Day...your cell phone might be disabled.. |
