Avatars

If you're asking the general AZB populace at large...
IMO no. I understand why some of our more sensitive members might be offended, but I don't think it goes over the top.
 
I think I like it. It reminds me of my last excursion (her being passed out cold) and all, For godsakes Mario Open her eyes..

LOL

No way, even cartoons deserve some lovin. :D

You'd think it was the least the Princess could do for Mario, what with him saving her from Bowser and all. All the while stomping out walking mushrooms and negotiating paths by hammer throwing turtles, flying turtles, bullets with eyes, jumping over fire pits, etc. :D

All kidding aside, I just remembered what I was doing looking at my User CP yesterday...I was going to change my avatar! But I think I'll leave it up a little longer to spite our unnamed poster.

After that, I think I'll steal an idea for an avatar from another poster...I'm going to take a picture of the butt of my Rick Howard cue with his name stamp and use that...a cue purchased from member Jazz. You guys should all probably buy from him because he has tons of stuff to liquidate.

If its demeaning to women or men its inappropriate, if its not its ok. If I had a youngster who loved pool and spent time on this forum then I would have a problem with it.

Most of us can remember that untimely knock on the door or ringing telephone, so, at the very least, give Mario enough time to finish his "work".

He's been at it an awful long time. I think he must have got one of those everlasting erections the viagra commercials warn about.
 
There's nothing wrong with the avatar except for the fact the princess may need some smelling salt or a little of whatever Mario is having.

Then he can follow the directions on my avator.

GOOD REP GIVEN!

The comment was in relation to my avatar, the poster who left the rep saying that it is inappropriate. I'm not going to name names, because that's not my style. But in searching the FAQs, the forum rules post by Mr. Wilson, etc., I found NOTHING that implies or states that my avatar is inappropriate.

.

I don't see where anyone would have a problem with Super Mario giving the Heimlich to the princess, it's clear that she' choking and looks to be passed out, I just hope he saves the day.

You know, I look at that avatar and just scratch my head! It's not big deal, really. If you want to talk about questionable cartoon stuff, let's talk South Park! Holey Moley I can't believe that show is in it's 10th season along with all the premiums i.e. clothing, dolls and more that go with it.

I have only watched 3 episodes of the show, and for one like me who does not embarrass easily, this show has me shaking my head with my jaw dropped down! Naturally the very first show I watched was I think called red rocket...OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Anyone who watches Suth Park, knows what this show is about................

Then the 2nd show I watched, was about the character "Butter's" father who caught in a gay male club... It was sick!

Okay, nuf said.. Here is my point.

This little tiny cartoon clip that Suckershot is using, has nothing on what the sensors feel appropriate for general TV viewing these days. So who is anyone to say anything about Mario and that poor princess!

You may have read Eydie's post about another fairly active member of this forum using this avatar before? Yours truly!!! See? 1,550+ posts and I see nothing wrong with it. But, its a matter of taste. If I did see something wrong with it, I wouldn't make you remove it. I'd look past it or I'd turn the avatars feature off. (By the way, thanks for remembering Eydie! Hope you and Bob are rebounding from the accident. Remember, cars can be replaced!)


Yep, and we have loved all of his 1,550+ threads! :D

We are still very sore, but life goes on. What is the worst, is dealing with the insurance companies! Thanks for the love Pharaoh!
 
He should not have to remove the avatar.

I got to the point where I could finish Mario Bros. 3 without dying at all and no warps! It would take about three hours, but I did it several times. Mario 3 is the best game ever.:) If Mario 3 was pool, I'd be Efren easily.:D

The forum rules do specify "...you warrant that you will not post any messages that are obscene, vulgar, sexually-oriented, hateful, threatening, or otherwise violative of any laws."

The more general question here should be whether the forum rules apply to avatars, in addition to messages? :eek:

Hang onto your vCash, rackem, as you would probably lose! :rolleyes:

Let's ask suckershot to answer the following question truthfully: Is there any part of your avatar that might be considered to be obscene, vulgar, sexually-oriented, hateful, threatening, or otherwise violative of any laws? :p ;) :D
 
I think OP just wanted some good Rep for it, and I gave it btw. I think the avatar is quite funny.

I do have to hit the ESC key every now and then to give the princess a break! :)
 
If super mario was doing a good job, wouldn't the princess wake up?
Maybe he should try till he gets it right.
have a bang up day

No need for the thanks Eydie! I'm glad all is well. And believe me, I feel your 'pain' with the insurance. I parked my car outside of a poolhall a few months ago and while I was inside, someone backed into it and drove off. $1500 worth of damage with only a $500 deductible for an accident that I had no part in!!!!!! Well, best of luck to you both!

And as for Mr. Wilson's question of whether or not the avatar should be removed, I can only respond by saying this:

Here you have a blue-collar plumber who risks life and limb, fights various monsters (including flying turtles and walking mushrooms), warps through time, and dies several times over only to be reborn so as to fight again, all in an effort to save a Princess who, based on social stature and class-systems alone, clearly outranks him... well, I think that little plumber is entitled to a little action! And if this really is a world where the hero is NOT allowed to get laid at the end of the day, well, I'm not sure that's a world I want to live in anymore!!! :mad: :mad: :mad:
