Sabotage at GS Cafe

[OnionEater]

Someone changed my AVATAR from an "Acadian POUTIN" to french fries and gravy which is what they make in Quebec and Nova Scotia. Who did this evil deed? Who has the power to do this? WHY,O WHY was it done? Is it a conspiracy? Are we Acadians being persecuted again? I want my POUTIN back!

Probably because you hot-linked to the pic. People don't like that because when you hot link, you are basically stealing bandwidth from that server owner.

Save the pic you want to use and store it on a server where you have an account. Then link to it.

If you need some server space, PM me and I'll give you some.

The avatar I used was a picture on my own computer which I took myself of a poutin I made.

The avatar that is pictured now comes from a web site that I have no link to except for the recipe of Acadian Poutin not french fries and gravy.

Mystery has been solved. A moderator was messing with me.

lol

You can mess with my poutin but don't mess with my dog!

[Bluzeman]

OK, glad to see your "you" again. :)

I thought it was hot linked because the replacement was a google url. Dang moderators, what, ya got too much time on your hands?

OE I noticed the avatar change right away. But I figured since coolchef had guessed it, you were upgrading it to a cooked version or whatever. I was going to ask about it but hell, when I do that I'M the one who usually looks stupid so I just keep quiet.
