I hope my new avatar isn't offending anyone :-D (Well, I do, but I hope it's the right people.)
How many people fit on the ignore list anyway? I went from five to 23 in a day.
I get people not being bothered about the blue store - and I certainly am not motivated enough on this to pick this issue to plant my flag on (if I was going to do that there must be 20 issues i would put before the Arx store icon even though i am no fan of it either).
However blanket blocking anyone who chooses to change their avatar to show their disapproval seems a bit ott to me..... of course its your account and your decision to make.
I suspect the majority of folk do not have that much of a problem with change, nor ARX themselves (or maybe that is just my bias showing through as i happen to like earning them in game) just the way FD are making it stand out in parts of the game where we should not see it. (I dont want an out of game store icon of any description taking up prime time real estate in game, esp not when it is a different colour to anything else. Versimilitude and the 4th wall matters to me with ED.
If it is purchasable with in game credits it belongs in the game, if it is purchased with out of game credits it belongs in a side menu. (I realise there is a minor "exploit" in that simple logic with the 400 a week arx so no need to spell it out

)
