Profile Pic, Reason?
Hoja Lateralus:
Mine is a Polandball because...well, I'm Polish and why the hell not. Polandball can into funny jokes.
Before that I've had a nuclear blast* as avatar. I changed it because I started a thread where I warned community about people using communist symbols in GOIO and (naively) hoping that people will help me report those kind of disgusting behaviour. Then someone pointed out "But, Disaster, you have nuclear blast in profile pic and Hiroshima and Nagasaki, y'know!". I don't think they were right (and even that it wronged anyone anywhere at any point) but I did change it for the sake of the argument that I truly wish that those poeple I fight with had the same amout of decency in them. They don't.
*something like this:
Riggatto:
Mine changes very often, but currently it's a creature known as a Styx from the book series Tunnels

@Mr. Disaster
I'm okay with symbols because, well, they are just a visual pattern that happen to have a meaning in our minds.
So, I really really miss your old profile pic. It had more of that "Mr. Disaster" meaning/feeling to it. And I think that hammer-sickle-communist argument really shouldn't have happened.
Thank you for whoever that revived this thread. I liked reading through it.
My Profile Pic is just a screen capture of my actual GOIO character. I don't use the same hair anymore (since I've got hats), but I really like the Shaded Spectacles. It gives my character look like the Muska's government agents from the Castle in the Sky.

Yeah, personally I think you should change it back. I Mean, there are symbols that could be seen as bad (like the Hammer and Sickle) but then there's just an explosion. An atomic explosion wasn't even originally made for war, it was Einstein's creation/idea/thing he realized (I think it was Einstein, woops if it wasn't. Point is, I'm pretty sure it wasn't made for war and war only. It was just Splitting an atom and seeing some cool energy shit). That's like saying Pencils are offensive because Lead is in bullets.

Mine was drawn for me by lord high admiral spud nick.
Can't dare to take it down. (Even though my avatar in game is different.)
Previously I had a red square.
Those were the days...
