would be cool to have our own pics. i'm sure if ppl chose something innapropriate we could have a complaints procedure put in place.

I would expect that they would have to be approved before being live because of the great potential of incredible abuse and offense. And the time to review them all might be more than the current support could do. I'm sure that's part of the problem from their end.
Sorry, but I've slept since then...
we already have a complaints procedure, and the forum mods are pretty much on the ball when inappropriate images are used on the forums.
When it comes to Gene pools and shallow ends they can be found at the bar drinking pina colada's
Agreed - and the forum mods do a good job, but I was thinking of the in-game avatar and having your friends list suddenly filled with images you may not want to see. That would be harder for the moderators to know about than forum posts and could cause a lot of support tickets. I'm assuming that we have been talking about the in-game avatars because in the forum you can already have your own.
I personally would be hard to offend because I'm quite open minded and good at ignoring what I don't want to see, but in this modern world people take offense at a great many things whether reasonable or not.

i wrote support half a year ago about that no answer
My thoughts exactly. I'm not easily offended by images either but it would make the whole game very messy. I have no desire to see pictures of cars, football team emblems, dogs, cats, women in bikinis, Kim Kardasians backside or whatever else people decide to use. The Settlers is a classy game with some great artwork. I would hate to see it destroyed by tacky avatars that you see in so many other games.Agreed - and the forum mods do a good job, but I was thinking of the in-game avatar and having your friends list suddenly filled with images you may not want to see

I'd expect some data for the avatar is stored within the users table although that could just as easily be 1,2,3,4 under the avatar column, other than that I agree, chances are it would cause additional server stress for no real reason
Never give up
Never follow
Never think great is good enough
I agree..... free the avatar :-)
Hi!
The good old avatar question. I mean the FAQ entry has been up since the game pretty much launched and we would really like the option to change our avatars. Be it by gems cost or anything, please. You can make it have charges or anything like that too in the shop but please, can we finally have the option to change it?
hugs

Some of us started playing at a time there wasn't much choice.. there's lots more to choose from these days, so yes, I agree with Snugglz, the ability to change would be good. (Even limit it to 1 or maybe 2 max.)
