Personally I want my avatar to infect the forums slowly but completely, to influence everyone's way of thinking subtly over time. To create a true goon hivemind.

I don't think they give out the forums cancer av anymore.

No one cared who I was before I wore the avatar

Now mods I demand you rename the imposter Smugworth and give me back the name Slugworth, for the safety of gbs

Mods should add a tag to a random regularly posting user. Anyone that quotes them or addresses them (via username) should get their avatar. It follows for anyone that quotes them too.

And then after a year we shut down the forums because everyone caught avatar. Quarantined.

The trick is to make your avatar a penis so mangled and misshapen it takes people a while to even realize what it is





also I think the mouse buddies thing came from the imaginary friend thread, but I didnt read very much of it so idk if those inflicted with the avs were posters there

just one, I blocked bakoon back when he was posting 30 times a page and each post had his gigantic sig of a human eyeball being graphically sliced open

I believe there is no way to trace avatar purchases as the forums don't store credit card purchases.

killer idea, forums avatars should be NFTs and jeffrey should get a cut of all the trading done on what will probably become a wild speculative market of banned accounts with good avatar images

Thank you goon friend who purchased this avatar for me. It captures my brand of white noise posting perfectly, and I also appreciate it's commitment to environmental sustainability by way of advocating for recycling.

Long time ago a mod told me and it was an ironclad contract that of he saw someone steal my av that poster would be killed. This mod, who told me this in confidence so I won't name them, also said that the other mods had the same responsibility. So if someone steals my av I assume the mods will do their contractual duty and not be coward bitches!!!!

It would be cool if there were little left/right arrows by the avatar so you could look at previous ones. Also if mods could "stick" particularly good avs so they appear underneath, something like gang tags.

Dear Jeffery, someone gave me this avatar, I think it was LAP, and I love it. Since then I have noticed at least TWO other goons with the same avatar. This is clearly an unacceptable attempt to coopt my strong brand of white noise posting energy. I would ask that there please be a system put in place to only allow one person to have an avatar. if they want to like, draw a hat on it, that is fine.


thank you for your time

I'm using this opportunity to ask: is there a way to check where my avatar came from on mobile? Because I'm loving clueless.

there isn't a way at all unfortunately. would be rad if there was because then we could see when posters completely loving own themselves by buying a dumbass red text for someone

Some posters choose great avatars. Others have great avatars thrust upon them.

well op, in qcs anything people think isn't funny gets a dozen people racing to reply with :imunfunny: so I'm just saying we're not doing that here. you can at least write your own threadshit

Oh. That seems a little weird. That seems like it might be a slight flaw in the one forum that's not really supposed to have its own community, in-jokes, or, really, jokes. I know all the subforums have their own posting culture, but that one seems like it should be accessible to anyone for serious discussion instead of a source of riveting comedy. Maybe I should go and complain about it in QCS.

... Wait a minute!

Anyway, OP, the answer to your original issue is to give up all material possessions and avatars and become one with the grey void.
