Default OT - Approaching 170 Posts...

...will probably be there in a week at this pace and I and need to know:

1. When does one start getting that "Navy Dude"*** avatar?
2. And more importantly, when does he go away?

Barkhorn.

***You know the one, right? The one where the guy looks like he frequents a certain kind of club in the Hamburg red light district? That one!

Haha, what a petty gripe to have

I don't even think the navy dude looks that bad. It's the wild night in Bangkok you should be worried about. It's an initiation ritual of sorts

Yeah, but it's one you can effectively skip if you post on two threads very quickly.

As subsim gets older and people post more, maybe there should be more avatars for the higher ranks.

@Barkhorn - Which guy?

Donate some money to the site. Neal has to foot alot of bills to give us the opportunity to have a great place to hang out. Once you donate, not only are you helping keep up the common cause, Neal allows you to pick your own avatar and nickname.

Say, for example, a long dead Secretary of State who was the father of NATO, which helped save the West from the Godless Commies. <smirk>

Pay up and help keep subsim.com going and get your own avatar. It doesn't take much. You can also call yourself anything you like too.
