Can I have mine back now please or am I still not allowed one. A good question I would like to raise is how come Iron Fist is allowed his. I feel we are not allowed that style of avatar. I am not picking on you Iron Fist it is just that Blacky isn't allowed his and I copped an avatar ban.

You can have one back Strawb, but please abide by the rules, IF is fine and NN doesnt have one that I can see.

Basically the criteria is if you had the site open at work and you boss walked past would you the avatar be potentially offensive.

Personally I dont see the need for any suggestive avatars, if you want to see that you obviously have access to the internet.

I'd say IF's is acceptable as the woman is adequately clothed for a public site, even if the clothing over the breasts is not very obvious at a glance because of the colour.
Strawb is still pushing the margins with his new one, and if I were his boss I'd require him to draw it back a little in the workplace I ran as I would have a responsibility to ensure it didn't offend female employees who may see it there.
Also occasional visitors coming in have to be considered.
[Mind you in my workplace he wouldn't be there long if I caught him browsing the net or fora in work time. ;) ]

Yes - thanks for pointing out my typo! While correcting it, I took the opportunity to add the indicator of the touch of humour I'd intended.

If I was working for you Psyber I can tell you this I wouldn't be on the net during work time. Work time is just for that to do my job.

Maybe the moderators could put stars or black bands over any bits of avatars that they find naughty. :D
