Ill stick with the smoking chimp...took ages finding a pic I just liked and Im a fussy git...tells the rest of you noobs what ye need to know about me. Im the monkey who acts likes a bit of an idiot at times, sees multiplayer like a game of cards and smokes all the time.

That look to the right...or left depending on how monkeyish a perspective ye want...is me checking to see where the mods are, and if the coast is clear, letting loose with a full sixpack of sarcasm and innuendo. Its the look of mild disgust at being offered coffee at a tea party. Its a funny picture that just describes so many things about my personality...not the hair though...seems the older I get, the less I have on me head and more in me ears and nose...makes my eyes water when I pluck them...

In a spaceship, I can get the sun to pass over the yard arm at will.... How convenient.

You'll probably end up so drunk it passes over it every 30 seconds as you barrel roll. Just keep the Jamesons at arms length, you know how that ends up :D

As for avatars, unless they give us scary masks in commander creator I'll be leaving mine as it is.

Edit: lol 3 post reunion, reminds me of another forum :D

I was going to change mine a while back to another avatar, but that would have involved changing my name to one of my other gaming names, each have there own avatar..the one on the left is the one I have and always will have for this place.

Sig's on the other hand do change from time to time.

Edit: Just popped into the beta forums to check on a post I made, my god your right Ziggy, its getting a bit silly in there.

I use the same avatar across all gaming forums, so I won't be changing it. I might change the one in the Inara sig to my in-game one though.
 
Well I suppose if they create a custom ship suite just for me I might change my avatar.

Unlikely though and I can't see me wanting to change it to a bloke in a black suit always wearing his helmet

No pun intended on that last line.
 
First off, here's your open letter: C

Second, I'm noticing an unsettling trend. People are using their in game avatars in the forum. What before was an eclectic mix of colourfull, strange and diverse set of people quickly is turning into a sea of mundane :|'s

When reading threads I refer to posters by their avatars. For instance, Agony Aunt is my nemesis in that regard. Now however it's in game avatar #237624. I don't know who you are, never met you, stop 1000 yard staring at me. The forum is descending into uncanny valley!

Yeah. So ....

This is important stuff this is, right?

It's not is it?

Oh very well. Never mind. Coffee anyone?

Let's be honest here Ziggy, you're just miffed there's no eye-patches or lightningbolt make-up available for our ingame characters :D

You know what? I'm going to rep and +1 that suggestion. I think eye patches SHOULD be included in the CC. After all, what's a dastardly pirate without an eye-patch and a hearty "Arrrrr!"?

You'll give Frontier ideas.... $10 for "starman z" makeup and the like.

(wow they even censor 4 letter acronyms for strongly telling someone to shut up on here. My word, if someone read that acronym their monocle might fall into their tea and cause a dreadful spatter on their dinner jacket.)
