I had a few people post that my avatar was offensive today. Should I change it.

Not offensive, but those things move to fast and give me a headache.

while i may personally enjoy the pic, chances are on a video game site that many of the viewers are young teens so i might be inclined to go a different direction

now if that is a picture of you . . . :wink:

It's not offensive. Anyone who finds it offensive needs to suck a fat one, I mean, come on. You see those every damn day.

I find Theenternal's offensive. That gun scares me. See how stupid my comment was? Keep yours, fuck anyone who says to change yours.

Offensive or no, all I can tell you is that having something like that on your screen is the beginnings of a hostile wrok environment claim.

So, on those grounds, I'd prefer it to change.

You guys have moms who freak out if they see a pair of boobs in a bra on your computer?

Isn't there worse on daytime TV? Hell, you can turn on MTV any time of day and see girls in bikinis.

I don't think the pic itself is offensive. I think the fact that you use it as an avatar is.

When I see it I think to myself...... it's the boob dude. Then I think to myself ... why would this guy want to associate his posts with a set artificially enhanced mammary glands on a video game website. Then I think maybe he's deprived of a good piece of ass and this is how he get's his kicks.

Some people have av's of mario or sonic or GI Joe or Mr. Ed. When I see those I think ....cool this guys a mario fan or a sonic fan. There is some type of uniqueness I can relate to.
Your av kinda says to me 'this guy likes tits. To me there is nothing really unique about liking tits because all guys like tits.

It's kinda like if I went to a porn site message board and someone had a avatar of princess toadstool.

It just does'nt fit in. I say get rid of it.

i really don't like it at all, but i'm a woman .... i imagine if i were a man i'd like it.... but really don't enjoy seeing naked women... would you guys like it if i had a pic of some guy swinging his cock back and forth as my avatar? probably not

i find it more "relieving" then refreshing :twisted:

either way, i dont see tomcloud post much at all...but when i do, i always have to mention his avatar and how much i...or "little" i, enjoy it

There's nothing naked about it. As far as I can see it's boobs in a bra. Wupie doo. If you want to put up an avatar of a guy's crotch covered by underwear go for it.

I'm aware. I was just saying it was fucking funny, so maybe she should change it to speedo instead of a bare dick, you know, just to be even.

Lol, I don't think willy-waving will be the new fad here. I can see both sides to this but I could care less if bras, banana hammocks, or whatever is flapping in the breeze. I have seen more titilating things in my college art history class. As long as cloth covers the right places all should be good.

As long as it's covered it's not offensive no matter how much you jiggle it in your avatar... and I'm refering to "guy parts" too.

08-05-2004, 05:41 AM
hahah this is seriously one funny topic but the boob avatar.. i seen an anime one that jiggled up and down and err other "worse" avatars than boobs jiggling i suppose.. but sure keep that avatar of your.. it's simulating to others

and that superhero wannabe skin tight outfit wasnt as good as the spiderman skater in thps2 :wink:

edit: what guy wouldnt approve of your avatar?

sorry i didn't respond sooner but i've been busy. Don't think i can get my husband to pose for those pics though. And I don't really want to see that on the internet either (i realize i could get a generic image but well that's well i don't want some guy's wang i don't know associated w/ me... ya i'm weird).

Please note i'm not offened by the boob avitar just not... hum... well it's there and it's not pleasing and not displeasing it's just there.... but if i were a guy i'm shur it would be pleasing. As a woman it's whoop deee doo kind of thing. I ordered my husband playboy for his birthday... i'm very easy going in the looking at naked chicks department

oh and i agree w/ the banana hammock thing since she's wearin a bra would need the guy to be skimpy underwear...

08-05-2004, 10:57 PM
Ok there i made myself an avitar and it's much better looking than a wang if you ask me. :) oh and i say keep the boobs too by the way simply because this is america and my husband goes to work every day so that you can have the freedom to say what you want and in my opinion this includes your avitar.

Shaq-fu what anyone else says, it's your avatar and you should keep it as what you want. It's not like you don't see stuff like that on MTV every single hour.

Backlash
08-06-2004, 10:40 AM
Normally I enjoy boobies, but I do read this board at work, so I appreciate keeping the sexual stuff to a minimum. I know you can turn avatars off, but it makes browsing the board much less fun, and kind of harder to see who said what (as it's much easier to use avatars to identify posters in your mind than reading the names).

I don't really complain about people's avatars, but since he asked...
