Bah, I was the snake first. I joined a month before you did....

🙂

heh. okay, we can share. lets just take it away from notfred.


back to the issue at hand though--- so is htier no chance of new avatars? i mean, so new ones really would be nice, or at least, touch up the old ones-- get rid of the ones never used and replace them with some more popular ones.

 
Last night I dreamt that they did add two new avatars but they were both female caricatures.

yeah that definetly would be a nice added feature

But that openly advocates a difference or separation from subscribers and regular members. Anand specifically does not want anything remotely close to that. That gets people eventually saying "you lowly non-subscriber!" and actually meaning it. Maybe not now, but face it... everything degrades, including society. If one open, blatant, and public separation is made and is acceptable, then there might be a push and eventually another made. Then another. And another. And eventually you have an entire class system here at AT.

*cough*Elite*cough*

...and we can't have that, now can we...

Dude its not that hard for people to become subscribers...pay $30 and you got it...if it was some "unattainable" thing I can see your point, but ANYONE can become a subscriber. If it was limited to Golden Members and above then your point seems more valid.

My point is that singling out the subscribers from the non-subscribers might become an issue later. It's an issue that Anand is/was worried about. I'm not knocking either service. I'm knocking the possible conflicts that it might present later to someone who doesn't have their head screwed on straight.

Link?

AFAIK it is implied. I also have that idea in my head, but I am not sure where it came from. Good job on the subliminal stuff Zuni 😀
