To those worrying about custom profile pics and the chaos that would ensue
I thought about it a bit and like... just report the things that break the CoC like anything else you would.
There isn't anything stopping people from posting naughty pics and videos or talking about certain subjects right now other than the threat of a ban anyway, so it's actually no big deal.
Yeah there's gonna be a flood of idiots trying to be funny or clever, but itll die down to just the occasional knucklehead after awhile. Besides, profile pics would be a lot harder to get away with than some naughty bits buried within a chain of replies you know?
That and profiles can be moderated too, and when that happens their account becomes a series of numbers and letters with the default pic and they're unable to edit it for a time.
So yeah! Like my lawyer said when I got expelled from high school, "It's all gonna be fine, everyone just needs to calm the -blam!- down okay?"

Edited by Helveck: 1/18/2021 7:57:29 PMWith emblems disappearing I hope they allow some - if even limited - ability to upload an image. I'd likely just default to my current emblem which I've used for years. And by limited I mean maybe you only get to upload a custom one after X amount of replies or X time spent as a member. That, and only allowing swap outs every so often would likely help keep things fairly clean I would imagine. Also, misuse of it = Ban for a looong while. Should be a decent deterrent.

3 RepliesIdk I’m less for this idea. Seems like a step away from anonymity, which is one of the reasons I adore this place. We know nothing about each other. I don’t want to see your faces because I want to know you for your words.

3 RepliesI think it's a good change if they implement it. Temporary but controllable chaos for a little while, then more engagement than before. It could go a long way to people spending more time on here. I'm just uncertain on whether I would change my picture to something Tolkien related, mythology related, Firefly related, or just stay the same.

1 ReplyEdited by BusyBadger: 1/16/2021 12:00:12 AMSince it seems like everyone these days is offended by everything, I move that all user avatars are barcodes generated from their forum join date. It may take a while, but eventually everyone will recognize one another.

4 Replies... Is- is anyone actually worried about this being an issue? Are they new to the internet or something? Pretty much anything online that allows you to have custom avatars, PPs whatever nomenclature you prefer, regulates the stuff heavily to the point the system itself will take care of any infractions with only the rare occasion where something "inappropriate" slips through and requires a report.

1 ReplyEdited by Dancing_Downer: 1/15/2021 10:39:56 PMI don’t see why anyone would be freaking out over it, unless they really like their custom Halo emblem. It’d end up like Discord in the end, with the majority of people using whatever the popular meme is or avatar from the trendy game at the time. Of course there’ll be the [u]absolute f•cking comedian[/u] who puts an anime girl doing unspeakable things with an octopus, but as soon as a Ninja spots it, we don’t need to worry. Edit: also I doubt they’ll actually do it. I can see them removing the custom Halo avatars, but this seems too good to be true. Maybe I’m being pessimistic.

After all, they didn’t say we [i]are[/i] getting custom pics, just that they’re looking into it. Now the real question is whether I should get my Heruka eye like on Xbox, or maybe the Divine Trinity logo.. Choices, choices..[/spoiler]

So many forums and social media sites have custom avatars and they handle it just fine. Report features exist.

1 ReplyImma preface this by saying all I’ve seen is that one Duardo post so apologies if there’s been anything more official I’ve missed, but I think people are overreacting to something that just happened to be mentioned as a possibility. In my opinion it’s far more likely that they’re gonna remove our personal halo avatars and that’s it. The way this place has gone in recent years they’ve tended to remove non-destiny-related personalisation rather than add it, they may allow us to keep the avatars we currently have selected and just remove them from the roster so we can’t change it without losing it. That’s what I always expected to happen in the future, it’s surprising they’ve kept the rest of our stuff for even this long.
