Avatar pushing the limits....

Um, even if the avatar was a blatant swastika look-alike, what's wrong with that exactly?

this is my feeling as well and what I was trying to get at with my long winded reply

"I hate gorie" is probably a good example of an avatar we don't want. I'm assuming this is being directed at the poster?

yeah but I think this POST should give it some context. I can certainly change it though

When I first saw the avatar I thought you had better judgement than that. Reading the post, nh. Benefit of the doubt.

I believe that would be considered objectionable material per the T&C. Some would also consider it threatening. Obviously those terms are very subjective but nonetheless it would in my opinion fall in at least one of those categories. We have to use our discretion just like when enforcing the T&C prohibition against posting "obscene" or "pornographic" material (obviously both also very subjective). With regard to those, there is certainly more tolerance for links within threads than pictures within threads or avatars.
