    Does changing an avy mess you up as far as being able to idenify who is
    posting?

    Sigs and avys do not bother me no matter what it is in them.

    If people leave a site over a sig or avy we are better off without them (obviously as long as it wasnt directed at them personally)

    Yes! It took me a while to get used to your new one, but I love it!

    I have my sigs turned off so say what you want it wont bother me. That said i would hate to see once again someone who is afraid of religion get there way and have the Rights of a religious person taken away because they whinned the loudest. Much like our Society today.

    That goes both ways. I guess some people here would be greatly offended if somebody quoted Nietzsche "God is dead". Though would they whine loudly about I dont know...... I guess that has to do with how vocal each individual chooses to be.

    Freedom of speech at the end of the day. If you don't like what's in the avatar/sig, then turn them off or ignore the poster. It's pretty simple.

    Freedom of speech...does that really apply here?

    Not really. Well, it depends on whether what you're saying "offends" a mod or not.

    Still, it's always cool to start a sentence with freedom of speech, because it sounds like it's going to be dramatic.

    I have no problem with religious or political pictures or quotes at all. (Avy/Sigs are on for viewing pleasure)

    Unless a sig/avy graphic breaks the forum rules, I think they should be allowed. In the event that another poster is offended by said graphic, then they have other options (like turning off all avys/sigs or temporarily placing the poster with that graphic on ignore).

    It's been my experience that a thick skin and tolerance for other viewpoints make any messageboard more enjoyable....

    I lean towards the more modest end. There are some avys I'd rather not see, like I mentioned about 8 months ago or so when the discussion first came up about what should be tolerated. I want to come and talk about my Broncos and get a break from seeing t & a, male or female. Since I just learned reading this thread that I can turn off sig/avys, I will since I'd also rather not see political or religious sigs. Then we can all get along since I can jump to conclusions about people, and what fun is that?

    And also, our blessed freedom of speech doesn't just go one direction.
    Thanks Mastershake!

    Don't really care either way. I just like putting my favorite phrases up and sometimes they happen to be P&R related.

    I think we ought to allow both.

    I personally can't stand signatures of any kind, so I turned them off. Pretty simple solution really.
