Offensive Avatars

This is a new house (site that is) and we have to respect not only the site but also the forumites of this forum. I have noticed some offensive avatars in display. I wouldn't bother to mention names but I am sure we will all do the right thing and bring it down. Thanks for your anticipated cooperation regarding this issue.

Yes Robby, clarify cos opinion is relative....personally if you ask me, methinks all Manure glorifying avatars are offensive.

theYemster, I mean pictures that are offensive to the general public. I really don't want to mention names but I have seen a couple and quite frankly I don't like it. Btw I have also noticed some yielding to my advice. I understand that many would want to get smart just like you are 27 are trying to do but really this is a serious matter. We don't want to resort to controlled avatar just like they do in other forums.

Robby, how do you define an "offensive avatar"?

Care to clarify - provide a lil criteria.
Thanks

I was only being cheeky. :)
I think you'rereferring to the pictures of women in revealing clothing. For the record, I won't name names either but If you don't know who I mean then there is clearly a problem.

P.S. I hope mine isn't offensive.

How pathetic. Robbynice, i assume you're talking about my avatar. If anyone finds a scantily clad woman in an Arsenal shirt "offensive" then they need to get with reality.

Eagle Winged, I wasn't really talking about you but since you brought it up... :D On a more serious note, I really don't want to mention names but if you look around very well you will see what I am saying. I thank those that have complied so far but there is this particular person I am waiting for to do the right thing.

***Robby thinking to himself*** :idea: Maybe I should that person(s) a PM.

Robbynice, you will probably need to define what you regard as offensive so we can continue from there. After all, some might deem the free advertising you're giving to O2 as objectionable. :|

BTW, any thoughts on the proposed avatar below..?
