man i got spoiled with the skull and smoke, finding a new avatar is kinda tough.

the trump argument here is of course that, if you are truly at work....well, you know the rest.

I'll change mine when I find good one.

h20- I have that avatar of yours saved, if you want it back let me know.

What a thread! Sol, you kill me. Personally, I think it's all SundayMoney's fault. It will be interesting to see how all this pans out.

How 'bout a slogan Doc - "No EE's on BB's!"

The hooters don't bother me but I can understand it being a problem for those who log on at work or have kids/wives that look on.
It seems lately that a small group is dominating the board. The same group that takes over a river for a day by playing bumper boats, launching bottle rockets, and playing their stereos loud. If that's the respect they show for anglers outside their clique on the water I don't expect any better here. So be it. I'll still log on but will spend more time on other sites.

I accept full responsability.


It has gotten a bit out of hand though. I never expected it to become a game of one-upmanship.

Choosing to show or hide your avatars is like putting down the toilet seat after pissing. If you want it down, put it down. I don't expect others to put it up when they are done. I guess it's easier for some to impose their will on others than do the work themselves.

I still fail to see why it's a problem to simply click on the button that says turn off others avatars. Problem solved.

Dave your right.But that would just be to easy than knowone could whine about the avatars.

Sol, your avator is offensive...who say's your a stud? I think that's stretchig the truth a bit....

Crap and all this time I thought it said
Sol Is A Pud

Just playing

Yes, the Big One is out on the river and I am sure he will figure something out when he gets home.

Obviously, Bob is a boob man so that is probably why he is a bit lax when it comes to this but I think things just get carried to far to see just how far they can be carried.

As a women I have question this many times - Do you want this to become Bob's booby board? What is the point? etc... but as Dave V said you are men and that is what you are obsessed with so I have accepted that

I think SkyGuys old avatar (I think it was his-him driving the sled with the sun in the background) and ElkRun (I think it was his-whoever had the elkhorns with the baby) were my favorite avatars ... oh, and Sol ducking Mingos is referred to in our house as "boob of the month" well by me anyway, but at least it is tasteful and not grotesque.

With all that being said, Bob will probably do what ever causes him the least grief because he is just too busy to deal with complaints.

Whoever flames me gets booted



JUST KIDDING!!!!!

I'm jealous of the man that has touched my avatar in real life.. Sort of like I'm jealous of any dude that has touched a 30+ steelhead.

Keith

Fishgal: Flame, flame, flame. Please boot me! It would save me two hours a day, that I now waste.

As some wise man once said. I spent most of my life fishing. The rest of the time I just wasted.

You're one killer chick, Fishgal.

I hate to put this on Bob's shoulders so I will go back to my last avatar. No biggie. Stam, Sol it a GOOD spud.

Well I would like to hear Doc's response on this one, but in the mean time I would like to reminjd every one especially the na sayers on the hot chicks avatars or posts that what you're seeing is nothing more than a kid is going to see watching commericals on tv, prime time tv, adds in magazines like SI, or billboards like the black velvet one or the dom triplets, or the bud girls, or the coors light commerical with the train, or the twins football commerical. As for the clicks or club thing going on,so the **** what. Are you jealous, are you lonely that you don't have a fishing buddy or a group of dudes to kick it with. And for the whole moral, or class argument give me a figgin break. There are already to many stupid laws and rules out there in this world to have some tide wadded conservative "I have nothing better to do than to find something to ***** about and stir the pot up a bit" guy try to bring up a subject like such. I think maybe somje people are jealous they wern't invited to that snoop rod tourney or something. Just a guess but it seems that usually in life when some one trys to bring you down with comments, or negative unfounded criticisms they have a low self esteem and need to lash out at others to make them selves feel better. If you don't like the avatars of certain people turn them off. And quit *****ing, tis the season to be jolly, not bah humbug. And the by the way, Metallica, Pantera, Maiden, slayer, Tool, Deftones, and many other bands can help a dude get through some hard times. Merry Christmas all even you Doc!!!!

nice shirt.

i changed mine too, but you know, some people could have a problem with it as well....

even though it is clearly the greatest heavy metal photograph of all time.

I'm sure i won't be the last to say that you flat out rock, Corey!

Got to chime in, because I can. I agree with PNP and ISO and the others. As much as I have gotten used to looking forward to the next boob avatar, it has become a contest ( a pleasant one at that), but not necessarily appropriate for a public fishing forum. I actually find myself checking to see if my wife is behind me when on this forum, and that' not what it should be about. I just don't want to have to explain the photo's.

And ISO and PNP have not posted reports, tips etc? Are you serious?

Ok, I have to weigh in here, don't know why, but I am. I thought it "no harm" when sundaymoney started with the bouncing bossoms, and mingo had personal pics that were at least fishing related as well as his own family. When sol showed up with the monster mams, well the size of the avatar made it hard to ignore and really distracts from the post, but they were covered. Now we have stlhdr1 posting, in my opinion, what amounts to psuedo-porn. Not real porn, but close enough. That crossed the line, in my opinion. The "boys will be boys" stuff is an excuse that you would not accept from your own kids, you expect them to use good judgment and know what they do reflects on them and thier entire family and community. The same is true here. The avatars you post reflect on the entire community.
Yes I can turn off the avatars, but that also stops me from seeing kevs football king, fishgals moster, parkers co-ho-ho or that sky guy now has an arima boat pic in his avatar and many other cool things. I even saved an avatar from someone of a boat on the columbia at sunrise and used it for my wall paper for some time. That would definately detract form my enjoyment of the site.
This is a community and I believe all have a right to express thier opinions. I have benefited greatly from many of your posts and hope to keep doing so, but please consider others in the community and how your actions reflect on them and their enjoyment of the site.

Just my opinion and worth just what you paid for it.

AWW Sol, you are a stud ... even in that pink shirt

Sorry Angus. You just don't attract attention like titties do.
