    @justtxyank, @MiddleMan is using a political avatar, and not just in D&D, obviously. I told him it was against the rules when I noticed it in another forum, and he essentially told me to "f**k off." (didn't use those exact words, to be fair, although he might as well have). I've reported it twice now, and I don't think it's too much to ask that he be required to change it to something non-political. Hope you can bring it to @Clutch's attention. Thanks! :)

    What if the admins just change his handle to LittleHand? Or MiddleFinger?

    Or go the Game of Thrones route with LittleFinger?

    It's been resolved. The system works! Thanks, @Clutch. :)

    1. How many times have you reported glynch's political avatar? His avatar is literally a profile of Bernie Sanders' head below the words Bernie and Sanders.

    2. "He essentially told me to f**k off" ? In other words, he didn't say that at all? Seems to be a strong escalation/fabrication/exaggeration to characterize it the way you did. Be better.

    glynch has an avatar??

    As for your second "comment," yes, he essentially told me to "f**k off." I suggest you broaden your vocabulary, Trader_ J.
    You just now found the time in your busy schedule to comment on this? Bravo!

    I'm going to remind everyone that race baiting is specifically listed as against the rules of this section.

    I think it's really important to define race baiting. I am accused of race baiting here by some posters and I don't think they understand the term

    At least use a good dictionary... Cambridge offers a more clear and accurate definition of race baiting and how race baiting is used. Nice try on trying to hide what you are doing by the way with that unclear defintion.

    race-baiting
    noun [ U ] UK
    the act of intentionally encouragingracism or anger about issues relating torace, often to get a political advantage:

    Even with this definition, the meaning is the same. Race-baiting is about appealing to racial bias like you do when you false claim white farmers are being targeted. You are inventing a new definition of the term that doesn't exist.

    Just so you'll know, I said something to glynch about his avatar a couple of days ago. What he does about it is out of my hands.

    I would also like to mention that your RACIST POST did not go unnoticed. It's not a good look for you, Trader_ J. Very unbecoming of a fellow who wants to appear to be "above the fray."

    Obviously there was absolutely nothing racist at all about my post. Tossing around the racism card without anything to back it up is truly the lowest form of attack online. Shame on you, Deckard. It's a sign that you can't debate straight up -- you have to smear and try to block people. A sign of immaturity, really. I can have a mature, fact-based discussion on race, whereas you cannot. It's a big reason why race relations can't take a step forward -- because people are afraid to broach the subject in dialogue for fear of others (like you) throwing around false charges of racism. I have no such fears, because my conscience is clean. Is yours?

    GOOD DAY

    Trader_ J, either you are a genuine bigot or trolling for a reaction. I would prefer to believe the latter, but either way, you got what you were looking for. You aren't fooling anyone.
