Brilliant! Civility will certainly ensue. Corvette forum. Spreading love, democracy, and symbiosis one PRC post at a time. :patriot:

:rolleyes:

That will make everyone play nice.

This is a result of the pussification of America. Back down and change the rules rather than stand up for what is right.

I can't imagine where we are going to be in 10 years. It is unreal. Back to gathering in speakeasies and discussing politics in dimly lit basements so the antifa army doesn't get us.

Give an inch, lose a mile.

Bullshit. Jenner was a fukin' freak when he started dressing up in his mothers clothes. He was 8.

FLEXjs 09-10-2020 6:53pm

I don't care at all, but really it's a car forum; there's no need for anything political in your avi.

Put a picture you, a pic of your car, or something funny.

One thing that has come out of today's mess is that there is a lot of idiots who won't stand up for what is right.

Sounds like IB got complaints on other forums they own so they decided to implement this across the board.

markids77 09-10-2020 7:17pm

Who cares? There's so much interference/ads/junk on each page there I quit even lurking. Worse than anywhere else I have been!

I dipped back into the cesspool once they sent a band of rejects here who haven't left. I wonder if they'll be upset about my avatar over there.

I have been posting on internet message boards for more than a quarter century now. In all seriousness, I am fairly certain I have NEVER risen above "Upset" by anything that has ever transpired online.

I also can only remember once that I reached "Angry" in real life in that time. The dude I was angry at realized it, and retreated immediately. I'm not sure I have EVER reached "furious". :shrug:

Let's review on Flex, dog's barking, shitty drivers, storms taking out his tomato garden, SRT getting rear ended, nobody at the pub on anniversary night, etc. :island14:

To me, an avatar is kind of a symbol of your identity without reading 800 posts. It should be something that represents you, or something you like, whether that is flying kites, fishing, or politics. I would say that if you are pro Trump or Pro Biden, a "pro" image should not be an issue. An anti image for the other guy is a different story. I'm not in charge though. My avatars change now and then because something crosses my path that I like, or I'm making a joke or something. I don't feel any need to fire shots at anyone with my avatar except maybe myself.
