    Don't give up but you got to expect some heat for the avatar. I have issues as well but it's not worth giving up over.

    Great. Another prima dona exit because some guy posts something controversial and can't handle the heat, and can't back up his comments with anything substantial.

    What complete bullshit. Another victim.

    Oh, those meanie liberals.

    Man up, for once.

    I thought the avatar was offensive, and juvenile. Maybe, that is why I liked it. That is why this forum rocks. Teh Zed did not like miy avatar either, and made me change it. My replacement is subtle, and aimed @ them, they obviously don't get it.

    I wish you, and your family all the best. It is my sincere hope that the adversity you both face ends today.

    Sorry, but I don't have much respect for anyone who can dish it out but can't take it in return. The avatar WAS offensively racist, and the rationale for posting it was self-indulgent and puerile. Stress often makes us do or say things we would not otherwise do or say, but to build up a rationale to defend the indefensible strips the "stress" excuse away.

    People on this forum have strong opinions, and most express them strongly -- perhaps too much so on occasion, but that is part of the give-and-take that a forum like this entails. Can't stand the heat? Get the hell out of the kitchen.

    I agree with Dave: Prima donna.

    I love it. No one called for him to remove his avatar, so says he splits. Pretty classy.

    I never even really noticed what your avatar was. Why leave? Seriously? I don't think it's in really good taste but neither is half the shit I post so who am I to say anything?
