Hmm, I thought the argument was that the ones making the argument were "victimized" by being subjected to a pony thread in disguise. I'm not saying it's a good argument considering the ones making it are the ones who also post in every single pony thread as well.RedEyesBlackGamer said:
Good point. I just have never seen a thread completely derailed as some claim has happened. Maybe partially derailed, but it got back on track soon enough.Drathnoxis said:
I usually think less of people with porn avatars, or other types of avatars in which there is female/male character in questionable pose/clothing. I just find it extremely distasteful in a place where people - at least some of us - try to have a civil conversation.
Also people with kinetic pictures that flash rapidly or such I find annoying, it is like they are trying to get attention... Seems rather sad to me.

I don't like avatars that...move, or well, are animated, they distract my eyes...or something. It's annoying is all.
While i'm on the annoying topic: Text in your avatar...Don't, just don't. None can read it due to it being, well avatar-sized. I can barely read any of them.

I saw someone the other day with a Michael Bay avatar. I have to imagine he was trolling, and if he was, it worked. Caught my attention and made me disappointed.
Not really. I mean, I have a stick figure literally vomiting a rainbow to let you know how awesome whatever he witnessed was.
Bit hard to judge after making that decision.lol

The ponies are annoying simply because they are so prevalent, and it seems like you all are just mindlessly copying each other. Now, if I see an aircraft related avatar (Such as my own F-15 firing an Anti-satellite missile, or my previous F-15 firing a Sparrow Missile), I automatically think more highly of that poster because aircraft are awesome. Kind of like how I instantly feel a sense of camaraderie with anyone who drives a Cadillac. It just feels like we are in a little circle of brotherhood that most people aren't worthy of joining. (And extra bonus points to any of those people who have a pilot's license.)
People who have a sexy lady/bouncing tits etc becuase it immeadiately makes me think they are a sexist jerk who doesn't expect women to be on here. :< Sorry kind of judgemental I know but that's my first impression.
Aww, does that mean you don't like mine? ;PHighPlainsSquinter said:
Anyway, on topic, I don't really think there are any types of avatars I don't like unless it's something ridiculously popular for no real reason. Portal avatars and My Little Pony for instance.
Seriously... what the hell is the deal with that show?
Other than that... nothing really. Or at least, nothing I can think of.
Never mind. The community let me down. I try to defend them and they go and derail the Furry topic. Sigh...thanks guys. I concede the point.Drathnoxis said:
Whoops, I meant to say mjc0961. But I guess when I was looking at it in the quote window yours was the first one I saw so I typed it. Sorry.HighPlainsSquinter said:

Wow, what are the chances of that? Although I still don't think it happens nearly as much as the haters say, I mean according to mjc0961 every person with a pony avatar is a ticking time bomb ready to go off.RedEyesBlackGamer said:
