They were correct about it being funnier, but they shoulda done namtab a solid by adding another Karen to compensate

Athanatos edited it to a slower version after a user messaged them telling them that they identified it as a genuine seizure risk (their life partner has Epilepsy so they're hyper aware of that stuff)

Thats actually a load of rubbish, the sped up version os extremely unlikely to be a seizure risk.

E: To clarify, I assess epilepsy risk all the time in my work, part of my job role is knkwing about epilepsy risk and giving advice to highly vulnerable people, and my credentials stretch beyond "my wife has it" as in im a qualified nurse in a country where that means a great deal of expertise and training.

To be clear said poster messaged me to tell you this since you brought it up, so I don't think it was malicious even if they were mistaken.

Is my avatar too flashy? I'm pretty fond of it but if there's risk of it inducing a seizure in people then I'm willing to sacrifice it.

I'm not really an expert because my epilepsy isn't extremely photosensitive, but certain lights and such can bother me if other factors are already in play, and honestly, you should be fine because it's mostly framed so it's pretty easy to look away from as opposed to something you can't avoid looking at.

Change the name back or at least make it less obnoxious. If you couldn't come up with a good replacement was there any reason just 'Anime' wouldn't work. This whole saga of trying to change the name but keep the acronym or whatever has been incredibly cringe and embarsssing. Also I don't know why there hasn't just been a poll or something considering it's not like it's a big forum in the first place.
