I'd like to propose a new Member Class for people such as myself who have no Avatar.

Currently I'm lumped in with Members 2 and the system generated avatar is a shady looking b/w profile silhouette.

Therefore this new Member Class should be called Shady Members.

Now if certain people can be "Trusted Members" solely based on the number of posts they make,

why cant other people be "Shady Members" solely based on their desire not to have an avatar?

I feel if the system is going to generate this shady looking avatar, by golly it should also put me in the Shady Members class as well.

to some degree, i do agree, with zelly, some people prefere to have no avatar.

for me an avatar is important, because it, "links my brain faster" than a name, to what ever there is in my brain about this person.
avatars, though envoke fantasies, hehehe.

there was a few avatar changes recently while i was away for a day or 2, was fun when i got back, thinking 'oh wow, all these new members are making such insightful posts!'. if there was a 'shady members' group i would probably delete my avatar to join, shady is a fun descriptor

Pft.

I think members2 should be renamed. Maybe to just Members. Those currently in members should be given a title to reflect there access.

yeah ^

i suggest greenhorn, newcomer, or pissant.

In Occidental theology, the word transcendent is used to mean outside of the world. In the East, it means outside of thought. To imagine that your definitions of your God have anything to do with that ultimate mystery is a form of sheer idolatry from this standpoint. Your God is good enough for you and mine’s good enough for me. A God, from this point of view, is merely a reflex of one’s ability to conceive of God. Since people have various abilities of this sort, they have various powers of apprehending God.

What does "restricted" member class mean?

Why was Max Cady made to disappear?

It was the Cabal, right?

He knew too much of the fundamental world truth?
