Avatars...

[Alexia]

My avatar appears to be causing some discussion. Is it relevant to this fora? No. As many avatars here aren't. Why have I use it? I liked it; simple as. I made it, I'm proud of it, and if I didn't respect the members of this forum I wouldn't be running this poll.

I did have to carefully consider if it would be appropriate to use here. I may have made the wrong choice, I don't know. For those of you who don't know, it's a scene from The L Word, one of my (and Cat's) favourite shows. It's a show about the lives of a group of women who happen to be lesbians. My icon shows a female ass, in the hands of another woman.

I can lose the icon, if people don't want to see it floating aroud this site. I really won't mind changing it. I was going to change it to this icon:-

...but this, although relevant to trek, is also lesbian themed. Maybe that's more of a problem than the actual ass. I don't know. Hence the poll.

So tell me what you'd prefer. I promise, however you vote I don't mind. I never intended to cause problems, I just liked the icon.

[Vedra]

I voted to keep the ass. I thought it was funny.

[Ginga]

You know, unless you really stare at it, you can't tell upon first glance what the icon really contains. :D

Therefore, because it's "controversial" and ground-breaking and the first of its kind, keep it!

NOTE: The ass is a body part. Therefore, because it is a part of nature, to the people who may be bothered by it: Grow up and get over it.

[Vedra]

Right on, Ginga!

[e of pi]

While I would prefer something different, as I lurked for a year or two before joining up, so I was about twelve or thirteen when I first came to this forum, I really have no problem with it staying. Whatever you decide. It's your avatar, and Zeke's the only one who can make you change it. Keep it, change it, whatever.

[Xeroc]

Honestly, now that you assked about it, I have to say, (Using the ASSCI character set, no less!) that I really doesn't bother me, ass I can see how the assinine complaints of those assassins who might wish to assassinate any asses of asstronomical proportions here, but ass for me, I really think such complaints not very asstute! :D


So, really, either one is just fine with me.


And yes, that was a cheesy attempt to make ass many ass-puns ass passible. ;)

[e of pi]

Couldn't hold that back, could you?

[Xeroc]

Couldn't hold that back, could you?
No, there wass no way I could resist making that many puns in one post. ;)

[e of pi]

Figures.

XD That's the best thing I've read all day.

[e of pi]

It was here too, but a little bit of overkill.

[Zeke]

(post removed)

[Zeke]

I've removed a post I made here. Posting angry is a bad idea, and I proved it a couple of hours ago. I overreacted because past experiences have made me paranoid about situations like this.

Alexia, I'll talk to you later about why I was upset about this thread. For now, I've given you the alternative avatar you posted here. My problem with the old one was perfectly reasonable (and for others reading this thread, it was purely a matter of decency; nothing beyond "you're mooning everybody" had entered my mind).

Those who read my previous post, please respect the fact that it's no longer here. If you have something to say about it, contact me privately.

[Alexia]

Damn, I upset you when I posted this to try and undo any problems my ass caused...

I didn't read your post (I was asleep) but whatever it said, please tell me. I promise you, this isn't a repeat of any issue you may have had on this board before. I'm not about to fly off the handle because you express an opinion, and I also respect that this is your board, to run how you like.

Given that you didn't like either icon choice, I really appreciate you letting me keep the Jadzia icon.

And also, I have to ask because it's early and I don't get it, The R Word?

[Zeke]

Reassociation -- or just "Rejoined."

[Vedra]

Tsk tsk tsk. So much unnecessary drama.

[Gatac]

And I missed it...

Er, the drama, of course.

Gatac

[NeoMatrix]

Your not the only one that missed it. Oh well.

[e of pi]

Hah! More dirt! Cool! Still accepting bribes...

Honestly, now that you .....

in this one


now who was on first :?:

[e of pi]

I don't do Valetine's day. How about everybody else?

[Sa'ar Chasm]

I don't do Valetine's day. How about everybody else?

Bah, humbug.

The best part of Feb. 14th is Feb. 15th, when all the leftover chocolate goes on sale.

[e of pi]

I steal my sis's. Post made preemtively.

[KillerGodMan]

Meanwhile I get all the girls

Why? Because I watch CSI and House!

:mrgreen:

[e of pi]

House is cool. Seen this week's ep yet?

[Chancellor Valium]

Why so much fuss over a donkette :?:

[e of pi]

Well, it wouldn't have been if this thread hadn't been started, but Zeke didn't approve, so the avie went bye-bye.

[Zeke]

Actually, I had spoken to Alexia about it before the thread. I didn't want readers getting mooned on every page -- not an unreasonable concern, in my opinion. Now, the whole thing is over, so what say we stop debating it?

[e of pi]

Okay. Lockdown code: Zero Zero Zero, Lockdown, Zero.

Does the foramaster approve?

[Sa'ar Chasm]

"What?! Self destruct? I said zero zero zero *construct* zero. Abort, ab-"*BOOM!*

The Enterprise-DBeta computer still had a few bugs in it.

[e of pi]

Definitly.

[richardson]

Okay, the thread has offically imploded.

[e of pi]

Definitely.

[Chancellor Valium]

Yes, but there's one thing I still don't understand. What is wrong with a woman's donkey? I mean, what was it doing that was so wrong?

[Alexia]

Valium; learn when to stop posting :wink:

This is sorted.

[Chancellor Valium]

Valium; learn when to stop posting :wink:


There is no such time!
:P

[Alexia]

Yes. There is :wink:

[Chancellor Valium]

Yes. There is :wink:

Fine. I concede defeat.

But only to you.

[Burt]

I think I'm confused? The problem is with someone's litle picture, an avatar, no? Though I've not seen it the episode itself I'm pretty sure the picture is from it?
There is a problem with two women kissing?
Am I correct?

[e of pi]

No, it was a buttocks. The one you see was the replacement.

[Burt]

Oh, I see. Intresting choice to represent yourself! Sounds like a rather cheeky image. I wonder if that cracked many people up? But I guess it's gone down the hole now?
Oh british humor! All copyrighted from those seaside postcards of course...

[e of pi]

Wow, those were better than X's.

[Burt]

I'm British. If theres one thing we like, it's a good rear-end joke! ou should have heard Billy Connerlys joke on Parkingson's show....That was funny!

[Zeke]

Arrgh. I was right to close this thread before. Discussion's over, guys; just let it lie.
