They change them from time to time, but they keep them because they like them.

Have you seen my mind anywhere? I seem to have lost it...

I imagine that people with a custom avatar have to ask a superuser to change it for them.

I remember when I used this space to put cool looking links to my chapters back in the day. I don't even know why I'm using it now. Why are you even reading this? You must be interested in me. Still reading?

They do occasionally. I'm guessing the one they originally choose is exactly what they wanted and decide to stick with it.

I am assuming they have to PM the head honcho to get them switched, which requires work. If they had the ability to switch them their self we would see a lot more changes. Or maybe they all feel individually attached to their own avatar. Who knows.

I believe that a super user has to change it manually, so it is a pain to do.

I speak for everyone when I say this should be Tom's avatar.

Now, in the quantum moment before the closure, when all become one. One moment left. One point of space and time.

I know who you are.

You are Destiny.

They have to bother an employee to do it for them.

It's because they have to be implemented to the site. They can't just take an image and add it to the profile, they have to submit it to the webteam and have Achronos or someone else that is a part of the team to O.K. it for an avatar.

Most ninjas do not have exciting avatars? boyyy, what you smoking? the forum ninjas probably have the most unique and cool avatars here on bungie.net? just take a good look at evilcam's, Lord Raven's, Qbix's, and Gods Prophet's? coolest avatars evar!

  • 01.01.2012 9:54 PM PDT

Also, it is sort of the same reason that a lot of other members don't change them. Once they have had it for a long time, it almost becomes part of who they are, and without it they would not be the same.

SPOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON!

Bungie takes a finger every time they change our Avatars. I still have all mine, but poor Duardo only has like 3 fingers left. He "replaced" them with some pencils and a PeZ dispenser (an idea he unexpectedly stole from Pezza). So every time he presses "a" or "w" or "s" or a bunch of other characters, its actually causing him great pain. Keep that in mind when he makes those helpful FAQ threads and guides.

I think you're lying.

Most of them have custom avatars. The webteam has to go out of their way to implement these avatars into the system. They purposely keep the same avatar to keep the webteam happy. The only ninja I know to not have a custom avatar is Tom T. I guess he is content with the Septagon inside the Marathon symbol avatar.

Get with the times. While you were off being a non-moderator, we all chipped in to buy Duardo a monkey that types for him.

All I know is that they have to submit them to Achronos. So he probably only does it sparingly because he's busy.
