Subject: Achronos' Bungie.net Avatar vs. The Real-Life Achronos.

Achronos has gathered enough real life credits to actually get that lightning that crackles around your body.

It makes hugging a little bit difficult, but daaaaamn its so worth it.

I know it's terrible that the avatars aren't able to keep up with us as we age.
I mean I no longer am as crimson as I was. Actually I'm quite pale now. And I'm no longer as svelte and limber as my avatar depicts. Age sucks.

The Song Of Nephilim

He's wearing sunglasses. Everyone looks cooler in sunglasses, which is why the two seem different, and do not correlate.
I was assuming the lighting and blood-red background made the most crucial difference, not the sunglasses.

I, on the other hand, totally look like my avatar. Not like the eye, no I'm that holo message that pops out of it. That's me.
Huh. Just curious, how do you do ordinary things like open a door or start a car, not having appendages.

Okay, I can admit that this picture is making more connections to the avatar. But still, the difference is still prominent, just not as strongly displayed than before.

I acknowledge my user name is stupid. However, I promise I'm not.

Disclaimer: The latter is a lie.

I never saw Achronos' face before visting this thread! I wish I never did! His face was so beautiful and pretty in my head... he was a beautiful little fool. Now, however, he just looks like a hulking specimen of a man.

What about an animated GIF avatar, where the frame changes every year. You use age progression software to generate a genetic projection of what you would look like in the future, and wrap an artistic bow around the picture. Bam, you've got avatars to match your age as it grows.

This made me lol a little.

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

Yeah but when he hugs the Whiterun guards he always has to explain that he's Thane. Shame.

He's actually been around a pretty long time. There hasn't been a new ninja for some years now.

You imply a level of control over Halo: Reach matchmaking that we no longer have. Or, in your vernacular, it isn't our shiznit anymore.

You know the picture is old when Chad Armstrong (Shishka) is there with Bungie.
It was dated back to 2008, in case you were curious.

lol holy crap now that you bring that up yea looks like it.
As for the OP...does it really matter? It's just an avatar doesn't need to look anything like him.

The avatar is clearly Dr. Octopus from spiderman 2. Am I not the only one who thinks this?

It's obviously a caricature meant to exaggerate his puff levels.
But the purpose of a caricature is to exxargerate the details of the subject. And I just don't see that in his avatar.

His hair in the picture seems to be bigger than it regularly is. Hence, exaggeration.

To Make Posts is Glorious

Some threads will get posts before others and it is the duty of the Leadership to ensure that posts are made that best suit the public welfare.

You people have just sent my sides into orbit. A bunch of MLG try hards sucking the dick of some supposed pro half the thread hasn't even heard of. Classic.

He should really update his avatar. Question is what should he update it to?

A giant douche or a turd sandwich?
