Poll: New avatars?

? Offline

Some new ones would be fun. The old ones are a little stale. How about all the national flags as well so we could easily display our location if we wanted to?

@dan are you trolling Dan? you know perfectly well where nationalist symbols will get us in this place. God it would be a laugh though.

@anexparrot I don't care one way or the other about the avatars, really, but were your ears burning last evng? A few of us wondered about your nick: does it mean 1) Ex paratrooper 2) you used to be a parrot (and if so, what are you now?) or 3) or are you a parrot that lives in the Annex neighbourhood in Toronto (but you couldn't fit in the other 'n').

It is up to you but I would ignore the people trying to get information from you, if you know what I mean, nudge nudge wink wink, comedy is obviously not their forte though they do try, some try too hard and it simply falls flat, right off to practice my silly walks and then into arguement clinic if there is one going, last time I went they tried to fob me off with constant contriction, I told them that is not an argument to which they replied oh yes it is. I voted yes to new avatars, having gifs as avatars would be good and even allowing users to upload their own would save Admin (with an i not an l) having to do any real work.

@sparks where is that down vote button when I need it?

@mapmakere LOL, it's a reference to 'a non-existent species of parrot, called a "Norwegian Blue".' Or rather an ex-non-existent one. Youtube

@anexparrot That would have been my fourth guess! Thanks.

@anexparrot OMG I only got the reference today. John Cleese.
I'll pretty much upvote anything you do now, knowing you used that as a Handle.

I'm changing my handle to "hovercraft".

@amy-hall The avatar list under settings is currently empty for me so I can't change mine. They've also added a location option, but that's not working yet either. It looks like they're going to do something interesting soon.

@dan
I don't give a flying fig about avatars. I'd find it interesting if they restored the funcion of the arrow and made the return key trigger Define when a valid word is typed into in the Dictionary text field.

@anexparrot Temporary seasonal avatars would be a good idea: They could become available say 6 weeks before, and when the season was over the player would automatically revert to their previous non-seasonal avatar.
