Naw I can't agree with the above post.
First of all thepita23 has been a member for a long time.
And just like some don't find the above mentioned avatar distressing in the least, there are some that do. thepita23 stated his opinion, and he can do that just as much as Wes can fly the avatar.
Agree or disagree but your post is kinda harsh.
There must be some censorship (specfically nudity) for puritan reasons since lots of kids hit these forums and I'd say avatars with foul language too. I don't know that flying a flag upside down is going against common decency but I bet you'd all vote to turn mine off if I had an avatar of me nude! Hell, I'd vote that off myself!
In all due respect it does say "Censored". LMAO. Actually I'd say to get someone cuter 'of the woman persuasion. LMAO. but it up to you if you'd want to change it. I guess I can't really say I agree or disagree shark2th and dkoots make some pretty valid points in my opinion. Like I always say "you don't like it don't look" and of course you'll look and may even get mad, but it's my choice to use that avitar.
P.S. could someone help me put the banner in the sig? It's not offensive, I promise. PM me.

Thanks for understanding John. I'm not trying to be an A-Hole when I say this is a rediculous argument. Why have freedom of rights if you can't express yourself. I agree 110% with the - Don't Like, Don't Look - modo.
A wise man once said, " Don't argue with fools, because people from a distance, can't tell who is who."
Not saying anyone is a fool here. It's just funny to me. _________________

I can understand why the first avatar would of been removed due to boobage cuz kids probably do come here as well. But the new avatar with the flag, I just think ol boy took it way outta context. Everybody interprets things differently. I guess he interpreted it as disrespectful. I interpretret it as freedom of speech and censorship from the govt is ridiculous. So to each his own I guess. _________________

Wow, as If I don't feel a little dorky chatting about XBOXes at times. I do what needs to be done for the sake of my XBOX. This takes the cake.
Dude, does it really matter? What is Wes' avatar your room wallpaper? Just get in and get out when you're looking for answers in the HQ. My parents always taught me to mind my own business and respect that of others. Does my Angry Monkey or Angelina She Devil piss you off too? Live with it. Dropping the flag is disrespectful, not sending a distress signal.
yes Dkoots im offended by your angelina not being nude!!!! lol

John do you want to get rid of either of your HDD. I could use a 120gb. Let me know. Also, What I wouldn't give to have Angelina nude right here, right now. Sorry for the lack of boobage guys. I don't want any kids crying about seeing a boob before their time has come. _________________

John everyone knows smily faces are supposed to be yellow and black. Could you please remove yours? It is making me very uncomfortable. Red and black are symbols for hatred. I can't deal with it anymore.

John, you know that J/K meant I was Just Kidding right?
Ah Yes! Angelina, my beloved. I love her. I think we would have a unanimous vote on that. _________________

LOL, Yeah I know I was just playing along, but I do plan on creating an avitar of my own with photoshop and illustrator. Sorry if I had you thinking I meant that first part man. _________________

It's all good. I figured you were joking, but I just had to know for sure. I'm glad we can all agree that his was a stupid complaint about a disrespectful avatar. I'm sure it's good for Wes213 to know we all got his back. I haven't seen thepita23 on here in a few days. Maybe just not in the forums. _________________
