OK, I show up today after having my Avatar for over a year and it's been removed. Could you please let me know why? I mean there are cartoon girls on saturday mornings more sedutive and revealing then the one I used.

I guess what bothers me most is not even getting the respect of an e-mail to ask me to remove it and give a reason why (i.e. Someone complained, we have posted rules against this type of Avatar or something) Just...Poof...gone is not very professional at all, especially since it has been fine for over a year. If it had only been up a week or so it would be totally different in my eyes.

In all the time I have had this Avatar only 1 person didn't like it. We discussed it and came to a mature and mutual agreement. He put me on his ignor list and he didn't have to view it again. Then the other 99% that liked it along with myself could enjoy it.

I know an Avatar is not really any big deal, but it's the principle of the thing that it was removed without any forewarning. I know this is HT's playground and he can do whatever he deems nessessary, but that doesn't mean it was handled the most professional way.

I could and should have e-mailed this concern, but I thought what the hec, I didn't get one and I also was wondering how many honestly were offended by my Avatar? And how many liked it?

If your going to censor one type of Avatar that really isn't bad in the eyes of the majority then to me you should just ban Avatars all together. Anyway I am sure this will get locked for what ever reason.

I have no idea why you are shocked/suprised that the jiggling jubblies avatars are disappearing. You should have expected it when the CPID's were over-censored a few weeks back. HTC over-reacts, but at least they over-react in a consistant way.

It seems we either need to clean them up or turn them off as they are currently being abused. Avatars are meant to be a fun representation of you and not something to be used to shock or awe people.

OOZ that's great but it wasn't posted over a year ago when i started using it. It is also in a standard thread not located in the admin section where they place there forum rules. (not that I read the forum rules everyday either) I don't read every thread in the General forum.

Main point is the way they did, not being professional enough to shoot me an e-mail asking me to remove it due to what ever reason they deemed for changing there minds on what is Now exceptable. In the time it took them to remove it, place that, "I need a decent avatar" Avatar in it's place (which to me is kinda childish, they could have just left it blank) they could have PM'd me letting me know the reason for wanting it removed.

I may not have been happy or agreeded with there decidion, but at least they were professional and curtious enough to inform me. I can respect that and i would have removed it with no issue.
