      the situation above is arbitrary and shouldn’t have happened. Because it’s really just NOC deciding based on his personal vibes that day what is worth a personal avatar.

      That's a pretty good description of what happened.

      There is a thread in the promo-public channel on discord now that discusses avatar rules. All input is welcome.

      I don’t think so. I put equivalent if not more fault on the Board for making a terrible ruling to save themselves a little bit of duress which in turn put NOC in a totally losing situation where he tried to give some sort of compensation. Only problem on NOC’s end was not working out the details.

      Little bit of a false dichotomy going on with this “net good vs net evil” when the whole situation exists because a ledger of reserved, illiquid funds is too much work for those few players. It’s really more like the needs of those few players isn’t worth a single hour a week of time of like 1 of 7 different Board members, which is a big deal for NOC’s position.

        The total unpaid tournament winnings are $150 to ZLO, $75 to Espi and Lunyshko, $30 to Robogear? Or who else did not get money?

            With the help of Spikey I have compiled a table of all 201 current avatars. The categories are my personal best guess and aren't meant to be taken as fact, since they aren't formally categorized in any way.

                  Discussed in pms, almost certainly because of the avatar deletion bug

                      Um there is more than 201. Considering when I login to mod client and look there is around 400+

                      I retract this guessing the avatar bug wiped half of them.

                      So originally 442 were there, now some are missing

                          The avatar ID increments every time an avatar is uploaded. Yes, the highest avatar ID reached is 442, but that includes avatars that were reuploaded, changed, removed for other reasons, etc. This does not mean that more than half of all avatars have been wiped by the bug.

                            If there are avatars in this list that I or others have a right to. Is there someone I can appeal to?

                                  Why can't we all get custom avatars of our choosing? What's the big deal. This would be nothing but a plus for FAF

                                    We are all suffering so that you won't get one. Tis sad but true.

                                          There is a discord thread on avatar policing? My apologies I didn't realise.

                                          The custom ava's for all point went completely over your head didn't it. Tell me, how would custom avatars for everyone be a bad thing? The community is tiny. This would be cool if everyone had an ava of their design and choosing and something akin to a personal profile picture for their Supreme Commander Forged Alliance Forever account.

                                          I understand this would be rather a lot of effort however, and I recognise this will never happen, not that it shouldn't, but it won't cause reason like, Some nonsense about the fact it will take away the meaning of custom ava's people already have; will devalue all those ava's in existence that people have, if everyone has one then you can't distinguish between earned ava's and merely having ava's, and so on and so forth.

                                          "..so it's a hard "no" for your custom avatar anyway imho."

                                          Gosh so many things to unpack there.

                                          Please tell me how you arrived at that conclusion, that I personally want a custom avatar, cause you know we all want those right, they are so cool man, gosh I really love custom avatars for they are really cool and amazing and I really wish I had one for my Supreme Commander Forged Alliance Forever account.

                                          Yeah I could not care less about a custom avatar.

                                          I like how you say hard no, as though there is a difference between no and a hard no, and the fact you put no in quotation marks, what is the point of that exactly? Doesn't make sense in the slightest. "Your custom avatar". What custom avatar would that be then? What makes you say that? Cause I lightly suggested everyone should have a custom avatar, cause you know, cool man. Again, who cares about custom avatar's, tourney avatars, or avatar the movie (actually avatar the movie was good, but not the second one).

                                          I mean obviously you care a lot.

                                          Why?

                                          Because a man's country's leader decided to start a war, now that man can't get paid for a gaming tournament and so as a kind gesture of goodwill and compensation he was given a custom avatar. What is wrong with you?

                                          Let the man have his custom avatar. Why does that bother you so much so you have to create a big post on the forums.

                                          As far as my contribution to Supreme Commander Forged Alliance Forever account goes, well I wouldn't say it's nothing, the fact I play daily is good for the community. As small of a part I play in the survival of this game is, I am still part of the few that keep it alive by playing almost daily. That is a contribution in an of itself.

                                          You telling me I contribute nothing is an egomaniacal statement and you as a mod shouldn't talk down to players like that.

                                          Fine I don't have 50,000 messages in discord "training" people and arguing with people etc...what is your giant contribution to this game exactly?

                                          Anyway I appreciate you gave me your honest opinion on the matter.

                                          "imho" lol.
