I didn't say YOU didn't know one had never been deleted. I was asking how you expected the rest of us, who do NOT "run things", to know that. So...yeah, I'm serious. Thx.
Well, if you had a serious question, you probably shouldn't have suffixed it with 'tardo,' but in any case...
Point out to me one time that anyone has had their avatar deleted without their interference and without action from the mods. In order to cast some type of doubt on a situation, you must have a circumstance where this has happened.
We gave the users a free pass on this whole thing and simply deleted the avatars. Some chose to restore said avatar and were warned, it's that simple. This whole thing wouldn't be an issue if certain people hadn't chosen to override what was obviously a decision made by the admins/mods. This isn't a 'userbase vs. mods' situation, as much as you people would like to make it. There are rules, they're clearly posted, and when said rules are broken and reported...we do something about it. There's only so many of us, and you can't expect us to read every asinine topic that's made. The people in this thread have barely reported any posts, so if you have a problem with anything posted prior to this reply, then it's your own fault for not taking the proper actions.
