I got the PM about the avatar from GPL and I changed it. However, my signature pic was deleted with no warning whatsoever. So are you guys playing QRZed now, or what?

I took the liberty of making the decision when I went to edit your profile, please remove your avatar. If you know of anyone else who has a similar avatar of any sexual orientation or gender, please point it out. Thank you.
Yeah, I figured it was you. Nazi. That's exactly the kind of shit that people complain about QRZ. If you had just asked, I would have changed it, although I've seen worse in avatars here. I think you're just being a douche about the sigpic but again, had you just asked, I would have changed it. But no, you're a friggin QRZ forum nazi.

With all due respect... disagreeing with Jeff is one thing.
Calling him a Nazi over it? That may be a bit extreme, no matter how upset you are.
That term has very strong and very negative reactions for many of us.
I am neither agreeing nor disagreeing with his decision or his process. But using that term... that's a button I really do not wish to be pushed.

I suspect you're right. It's no secret that I often do things to stir shit up on purpose in order to make a point. I won't even deny that. I don't care that you or anyone else complained. I half expected it. What kills me about this forum is the hypocrisy of it. There are no fewer than three threads focused on how horrible the zed is for editing people's signatures. But if it's done here, I guess it's OK because, well... Apparently because it's not the zed? Who knows? At this point I don't care. I made my point, I said what I needed to say. Get hung up on the stupid Nazi thing if you want-- I thought people were over being truly offended by that in the 90's when Seinfeld invented the soup Nazi, but ok.
No, that's not going to work.
I went through the zed wars in the 00's and it's nothing like this at all. I got banned over there twice. Once for jamming an asshole veteran about his benefit package and the second and final time for calling Dilmus an "alpha hotel". That's right, "alpha hotel" not "asshole". I've said FAR worse things here, and it's not an issue, and no, it's not because I'm one of the "favored" ones. I have about as many postings as you do, so it's not like longevity is an issue here.
You need to chill out. ALL of us have a tendency to rattle cages a little bit, but you seem to cross the Rubicon every time you go there. I've had many issues with people here, not with you specifically, but I, with a few exceptions, (Dilmus, N2RJ) have kept it off the radar. You seem to take every slight and turn it into a grand mal explosion after YOU make the provocative statement when you are challenged.
Sorry, but I don't think that's right. Calling someone a "nazi" is bad form period, I don't care about the Seinfeld reference. Like I said, Jeff isn't always right, but he's a damn sight short of some those asshole mods on the zed.
If you ask nicely, I will comply. If you pull QRZ gestapo like crap, I'm gonna call you on it. Not trying to be difficult, but seriously, WTF?
It was a last second decision, I was literally in the process of writing you a follow up PM about it. Sorry it didn't happen within the 120 seconds I did it..
However you see me, whatever. I don't much care.
