Subject: Custom Avatars

I was wondering, if this hasent been brought up already, why we cant have custom made avatars. Every other forum i've ever been on, i was able to have an avatar from where ever on the internet. If this is so wrong, please dont flame me.

Crimson Clover

[color=crimson]It has been brought up before, but whatever. It has something to do with the fact that inappropriate pictures could show up, something like that. I forget, webspace, there's another word. Yes, I'm tired.[/color]

We won't allow custom avatars because some loser would use -blam!- as an avatar. I mean that's pretty much it. We don't have the time to setup somekind of avatar approval system right now either. Maybe some day in the distance future, but I don't see it happening anytime soon.

With B.B. gone, the passion of Bungie.net has lessened.

Wasn't a custom avatar one of the prizes for the Avatar Contest? Or was I seeing only what I wanted to see?

If it was one of the prizes, I wonder who got it, and what their avatar is.

Other members in the fourm are saying that Honorary members should get cutom avatars..you know, the ones that stay up till 2 AM posting on these.



That's not what would make the "honorary." Honorary would mean maturity, and good manners, as well as not spamming, and posting in the right forums.

The problem with Bungie giving a select few deserving members custom avvies is the same as the custom title issue. It would most likely make other members jealous and cause more problems than it's worth.

Of course, the drive to be recognised by Bungie and be given a unique privalige like that could make many members desire to be, well...good.

why doesnt bungie just let you submit suggestions for a custom, and they can be replied if bungie wants,
just a thought

You can submit suggestions for global avatars (ie ones that can be used by everyone).
