The list of avatars that are shown when updating/creating profile

Some member named (&!$#@!) sent me a PM, yelling at me for stealing his personal avatar. I was under the impression when I created my profile back in March that any of the avatars listed as options were free to use. Is that not the case? Because he not only b--ched me out about it, but I don't see the avatar in my profile anymore.  How was it even removed?  If it wasn't ok to use, why was it even an option?  :-\  And why wait this long to say something?  >:(

I've since uploaded my own, thanks.  But really...  why are you given options to use if you don't have your own pic, if you can't use them?

Send a PM to MV and ask him.

Why would anyone complain about someone using an avatar? Use whatever avatar you want.

  In all fairness, I PM threats to anybody who uses verbs,adjectives or conjunctions I may have previously employed.

QuoteCome on now! WTF? You stole my custom avatar. BOOOOOO!!!!!!

Insert a devil mad face, and there was the message.  Anyhoo..  they took their sweet time in giving me a rash about it.  Oh well.  I live to see another day.  Hopefully one with less nut jobs in it..  a girl can dream.

I thought girls weren't allowed to dream. ;)

It seems that there must have been a glitch in the matrix. When anyone choses an avatar from the ones provided on this site, that avatar should disappear from the pool of avatars. You had no way of knowing, although to the other user,  it must be jarring to see someone else with your exact avatar, LOL! I even avoid using Wednesday Addams (Christina Ricci) because someone else is using Wednesday Addams from the black and white tv show, and I don't want to step on her toes.

Well, with so many to "choose" from, I tried grabbing one that spoke to me, and one that I hadn't seen on the forum yet.  Maybe they don't post very often, and obviously I haven't posted often enough for them to take notice of me til recently.   It was a cat in a tunnel. If they created it, they did a good job. I liked it, obviously.

I could be wrong about this, but I think MV's uploaded just about everyone's avatars to that list.

   It's the only type of PM that I'm capable of sending.

Ya know, this could all be fixed if we just let Eddie Coyle pick our avi's for us.

   Absolutely. Just a simple 23 question personality evaluation and check or money order for 79 dollars will get you the avatar that you deserve. Throw in another 20 bucks and I'll name a star after you as well.

I thought we were all just using our yearbook photos.  Next you'll be telling me you're not really a squirrel.

Actually I'm a squirrel pretending to be a human posing as a squirrel.  It's a 'hiding in plain sight' kinda deal.

Oh, good.  At least you don't have an identity crisis, like "am I dolphin or am I a porpose?" SciFi.

That's right.

That's right.

I don't understand what you're saying "that's right" to.  That you can take from whatever avatar is listed?

It was my avatar, and yes I created it. It took me nearly 10 minutes so obviously I was upset to see another member sporting my hard work. I had no idea that MV was pinching users' avatars.

Look at my avatar.  Now PM back and tell him what my avatar would say.

Actually, you are thinking of Androids.  And they can only dream of electric sheep.  It's a rule.

I think I like the idea of Miley Cyrus running around as paladin1991.  It just kinda sings. You know?

OH.  So you're the ~emotional~  one.
