Well, it's just that most girls are not named Frank. ;)
Or is that your real name?

Howard Dean is NOT from WI, he was just campaigning here when that pic was taken. Good thing too.

I still like mine. Im leaving it up until we play again.

That was rather unnecessary, EK.

You do realize you helped trigger the boycott? ;)

"Why shouldn't there be another round? " says Frank-Who-Is-A-Girl. "I've really enjoyed EB's selections."

I know that you made me current avatar, EK,and I'm very grateful! \:D/

The phrasing of my sentance was wrong, I guess. I meant that my old, hideous avatar was courtesy of EB. I didn't mean the imply that you were not responsible for the joy that my current avatar of Jack is bringing me. For that, I apologize. :pray:

*sigh* Is this a boycott on my contest, or EK's disgusting post? Because the latter can be removed. ;)

EK...that is disgusting.

People younger than you do look at this site, you know...

I agree, which is why I removed the post. It wasn't explict or anything, EK, but I'm sure some people don't appreciate things like that. :)

Wow. I am shocked that the admins took such offense at EKs harmless self expression that they deleted his post. I personally didn't see anything wrong at all with what he posted, and thought that the collection of images humorously presented as avatars was very appropriate considering the thread. (The aftermath of EB's roulette of doom - a game where people give control of their avatar to another individual with the malicious intention of using repulsive images. All this for 7% chance at a mere reward of $50.)

No, I'm not really upset that the admins chose to delete EK's post, he probably won't be too angry either - it's just a single post. However, the idea of admins deleting a post without consulting the author, simply because some might be offended is a dangerous precedent to set.

Just my 2 cents on the occurrences here today.

Normally, I would agree with you David, but when it comes to offensive material some times you cannot wait for the author of the post to get on line.

Precisely. However, if EK had posted something risque, or dishonoring to God I would not have taken time to write the above message. What he posted was a collection of pictures in the mood of the thread he posted them in. I did recall anything that was wrong or immoral. People simply reacted to a few somewhat repulsive images, hardly worse than a couple of the pictures featured in EB's RRoD.

I did not see a point where EK had done anything wrong, and I did see a point where the admins had, in my opinion, overreacted. That's what concerned me.

Good, im not going crazy. Everyone was posting about EKs post, and I went back looking for it. But then when I read ahead, I saw it was deleted.

anyways, I do want another round. I hope people dont boycott. Some people dont like mine, but it is so totally me, it isnt even funny. EB did a good job.
