Character portraits on the forums

[DPZ2]

It totally depends on how our current picture is produced, and whether or not the new Adventure Portraits are replicated in the Lodestone or not.

Right now, the Portraits are in-game only, incorporate a lot more data to transfer out of the game, and, as some people have mentioned, are not under the control of Square Enix as far as content. Adding to that, the customization possible, and the relative size of the current picture, make it unlikely that a 1-to-1 exchange would be pleasant enough when viewing it on the forums.

Not sure what the takeaway from this is but ok?

Edit: Did I misunderstand you? Did you actually mean that you were in favor of the current forum pictures and not in favor of portraits used for the forums?

Let me explain this to you : Your reaction was so antagonizing that it triggered an opposition reaction and make someone that wouldn't really care about the subject actually voice his opinion against yours.

Take what you want from that but i understand his reaction far more than yours.

Now to answer the op : all my yes, i love my in game portrait far more than that close up expression less portrait we have here.

What's so antagonizing about my reaction? I'm entitled to my opinion just like everyone else is. Just because my opinion is opposed to yours, this doesn't make it automatically "antagonizing" -.-

The way I see it, some people are just so spiteful and petty that they only want something to happen just because it'll annoy another person, which is saying something about the human race or at least the people here (seeing all the people agreeing with and liking the 3rd post only confirms this). I asked the person who made that post for clarification to apologize in case I misunderstood them. I don't need anyone else other than the person themselves to reply to my post.

I'd love to have my in-game portrait here on the forums, but from what I've seen, there are many portraits that I'd rather not be forced to see. People seem to forget that your freedom ends when another person's freedom begins (one of the most basic rules I remember from my civics course back in high school). People can make all the degenerate portraits they want, for all I care, but I also have my right to not wanna see them.

Don't forget there are people who claim you are attacking or oppressing them simply by not agreeing with them, no matter how politely you do it.

These forums are a joke anyways. If people actually used them for feedback you wouldn't have thousands of threads with people at each other's throats.

[Misplaced_Marbles]

Right there with you lol, i'm all in on the "degenerate" portraits now

I was against it, but I agree. Once people misuse the ever living crap out of the system, we'll all discover once again why we can't have nice things, as they're forced to remove it entirely. Then I can say "I told you so, wankers"

God, no! I'd rather not have the degenerate portraits shoved in my face here.

Considering how people are getting banned and reported for those, don't worry. I'm sure you'd have something interesting to click on here for once xD

I'd rather they focus more on the game itself.

I don't think the web designers who manage the forums are responsible for anything to do with the game itself.

At least I sure hope they aren't.

I still hope they spent their resources elsewhere. The update to the mog station was bad enough. It may now look more Smartphone and modern, but that merely means everything takes more clicks, more scrolling, more hunting around for what you want to look at and in general is just annoying. The forum is simple and functional. The mog station now is very annoying, even on smartphone.

I'm pretty sure the forum profile pic comes straight from the Lodestone picture, which is a general pose.
