Lol, ok...
----------
Kyrbi0, could you please consider changing your Avatar? It's inappropriate, seeing an archon like that (primarily due to the representation of class hierarchy in Protoss society, and the lack of respect on the proletariat protoss, but yes, also due to the depiction of a person of high social standing WHO HASN'T EVEN CONSTRUCTED ADDITIONAL PYLONS). However, to be honest, I'm not sure I'd be comfortable with a terran promoting his superiority like that on an avatar here at THW.
----------
I'm not sure how legitimate this request is. Are you seriously concerned about 'representations of class hierarchy', to that level? If so, I'd understand if my Avatar depicted other characters, shown to be subservient or something... But it's just an Archon. One single multi-dimensional entity cannot be construed as an aggrandizement of said entity. : )
----------
This isn't about hate or a cry for a marxist revolution. It's simply a matter of my communist feelings. I have done the same thing for many other people (most recently Orcnet, and his weren't even involving protoss, simply an orc with high economic standing), asking them to change an avatar/signature that I felt didn't fit the ideals of The Revolution
----------
I checked Orcnet's and there was no similar VMs from you on this matter (couldn't check your profile, as Google Chrome freaks out; do you have a huge picture or something on your VM's?), so unless you PMed him, I call foul.
----------
In a second question, I must ask "why?"; why do you have an avatar like that? Do you not know that the Avatar is, in a very literal sense, your "face" in the community? Many people choose images that are 'cool', or 'funny' or 'awexome' or 'thought-provoking' or 'indicative of their nature/qualities'. Does this avatar serve as a manifestation of you, an accurate representation?
----------
Seeing as those are my words, "yes, I know that an Avatar is, in a very literal sense, my "face" in the community". This is indeed a picture I consider "cool", "awexome", and even "thought-provoking", as well as (arguably) "indicative of my nature/qualities". See, to me Archons are more than just super-awexome lightning-bolt-shooting psionic dudes; they are conglomerate entities with transcendental powers. They are a touch of the divine, that sort of unreachable ascendancy into a higher plane of existence that sparks the imagination and brings me to my knees in awe. Listen to the quotes: "It's so beautiful! They should've sent a poet" and "Power overwhelming" and "Eradicate/Annihilate/Obliterate" and "It all looks so different on this side...". These messages are, to me, stirring & thought-provoking as to the nature of godhood itself. A message that each of us should consider thoughtfully.

So that being said: What's up? : /
