So you can buy avs for other people and everyone thought you couldn't tell who bought an av but you actually can? So someone named rats bought an av for themselves to look like they were being persecuted by bigots (not sure why) and got caught?

So someone named rats bought an av for themselves to look like they were being persecuted by bigots (not sure why) and got caught? it can be seen if you purchase your own av, but it cannot be seen if you purchase an av for someone else. It's the $5/$10 difference.

So what is red text? When you buy a av for someone else is the text red?

It can be whatever color and size, but big red text catches the eye and if you're pissed you want people to notice it

Borscht posted:So what is red text? When you buy a av for someone else is the text red? Avatar and text comes together in one package. Red texting is a tradition of changing someone's avatar and text to something dunking on them for having expressed a lovely opinion (or the like), with the avatar-buyer making the text big, red and in capitals.

Hold up. There’s a color called red. Since when?

The text isn't actually red, it just appears that way because it's moving away from us.

Hahaha, great minds. I was thinking about using a saxophone photo. Turns out that 'biting his lower lip' thing that he was famous for? He didn't really do it that much, or at least there aren't that many photos of it.

Lumbermouth posted:"Just one more thing... did you know that when you buy yourself an avatar, a receipt is connected to the account that purchased it? Now everyone knows that redtexting another user is anonymous. You can buy someone else an avatar and no one would even know. But that costs money. A whole more than buying one for yourself."

So someone named rats bought an av for themselves to look like they were being persecuted by bigots (not sure why) and got caught? The thing is, buying an avatar for *yourself* is traceable. You have to be logged in to do that, which makes it possible to tell whodunnit (somehow, I'm not sure how it works). But then there's also the fact that it costs $5 and not $10, so it could possibly be deduced from cross-checking when a user's av changes with when they made a $5 payment (if you're the website owner and so have access to payment records, that is).

It's a chess meme about people not knowing what en passant means so they say "google en passant", this meme turns google from a verb into the proper noun At least that's what I got out of it, not sure if there's more to the meme it's riffing on

Lots of people aren't familiar with en passant, and especially in some spaces where you can play the game online the phrase "google en passant" became a meme because of how often people had to say it to people complaining about getting blindsided by a move they didn't know existed e: also I guess here specifically it's dressed up in google colors and looks like an app icon
