    As Prelude has removed the Ninja, now my Avatar is obviously the hottest one here. So I am not participating to make this contest "fair".

    Sorry, but your avatar is way not-hot. (not everyone here is female)

    >> Don't feed the trolls.


    If animated avatars where allowed (but still within the 55x55 limit) I could very well win.

    Personaly, I think the submitters should have their avatars lined up, and anyone who wants to is allowed to poll them. That way the "judging" becomes judging.

    yes I knew something is creepy with my head.and you gave it the right name--"troll". thanks.

    I always try to avoid speaking ridiculous things, but somehow, I just type it in. I am leaving this nonsense I have done right here and getting back to serious programming now. I will never post anything in General Discussion ever.

    But don't just ignore me in C/C++ forums, just because I am a creepy creature. I do need your answers there.

    Sorry for every ridiculous alphabet posted by me, it won't happen again.

    I don't ignore people who needs help.
    But you're making yourself look ridiculous by posting things as

    And proclaiming yourself as the judge.
    Perhaps you should try to ponder about what you're about to reply?

    Calm down, people. No need to get too agitated about animated avatars.

    I agree. Two new contests. Prizes for the best fight and moderator with the quickest finger.

    Nope, I could only guess which one you meant. The crystal ball is my favorite, as it was my first avatar here and I made it myself from scratch.

    You have the ability to distiguish a marble from a crystal ball? Anyway, as much as I love a good cat fight, I would agree that people are getting out of hand. So, I'll just leave this bottle of chill pills out and anyone who wants one can feel free to take it. There is a water cooler in the hallway.

    crystal balls are... i don't know, more transparent?
    Regardless that's my prelude's favorite too. Altough for some reason I can't understand, my favorite avatar is Magos' one
