What type of avatar would you like to have?

Post Reply New Topic

I've been experimenting with avatars as you've seen over the past 10 days. I've had some nice ones and not so nice ones. I would like to use the swastika without being branded by the people in PPR as a Nazi. On the other hand, I think it would be cool to have two sides. Me and an alter ego. I could use things to do with Schultz and Germany and my alter ego can swing in the other half of the time with avatars to do with The Kinks and England. My alter ego can be the Cockney and I will be the Rebel.

What types of avatars would you like to have if there weren't any rules?

A picture of a cat-a tabby/Siamese mix

A picture of Denis Istomin or Rafael Nadal

My avatars would be very sarcastic and mean and probably advertise my current state of mind or what's pissing me off at the moment , there would be no positivity it would be stuff like this

If I posted in politics I would definitely want to stir up s**t by having this avatar

If you like the swastika symbol then you could post ancient ones

what are the rules? why can't use what you want???
i'm happy with my own avatar, it's from the movie persepolis and it's funny.

I used to know a member who used an avatar with a young Amazon woman's nipple showing. I guess a Swastika is pretty mild compared to that.

I went into a thread in PPR that I shouldn't have gone into about Nazis

but do you support nazism?

No. I just don't like how people still call Germans Nazis in 2018.

I just want to use a simple avatar without the people in that thread going bat s**t crazy on me and trying to ban me.

I went into the moderator's thread to see if the mods are okay with it.

But why the Nazi symbols? I just want to understand why.

You're not a bad person--I know that. But the Nazi symbols bother me.

My wife's father used to wear a Swastika ring; that bothered me, too. But he didn't understand the symbolism.

Hogan's Heroes was a biting satire on the Nazis. The producers of the show didn't approve of the Nazis; I would say, in fact, that they hated them with a passion. Werner Klemperer, who played Colonel Klink, was a Jew. Robert Clary, who played Corporal LeBeau, was in the French Resistance against the Nazis.

That's right: the Swastika has nothing to do with German heritage; it has more to do with Indian heritage.

I would have this avatar but it's already taken
