Hey guys,

We are getting some complaints from other users about some of your.... more questionable avatars. Let me remind you that this is meant to be a family-friendly board and that avs depicting nearly naked women (or men) doing... naughty things or wearing... naughty things is verboten. So if you have one of these avatars, you need to change it please. No booties, breasts or butts. Thanks.

If I see anything I wouldn't want my daughter to see, I'll delete it myself.

My avatar shows Dwight Schrute's calculator encased in Jell-o.

Come to think of it, that does seem fairly obscene.

Hey Admin!

I was trying to change my avatar and I get a 406 error. Then I tried to PM you and that also gives me the 406 error.

I get 406 errors when I try to post pictures.

Did my bootie post get deleted?

Or, at the least, it sounds like a fairly obscene euphemism.
