word on the street is many(if not all) posters want beloved forums celebrity pog boyfriend to get an egg next to their name, instead of a grenade. now personally i was sort of ambivalent on the issue, until the mass support of the general something awful community at large swayed me and i felt compelled to create this thread to ensure that their dream become a reality.

They wouldn't even change mine back to the standard grenade.

Good luck on this quest op.

I wish your sig showed up in QQCS, pog, I really like that gif of squeezing the chocolate poo poo out of the pastry pog. That should be the icon next to your username imo

I don't think the admins should yield to this sort of pressure personally, everyone and their dogs will be wanting a special icon next. Haven;t you heard the phrase, "give them an egg, and they'll want a leg"?

it is widely known that egg is a synonym for a grenade, thus in your heart you already have what you set out to acquire. an egg

Agreed, I think an egg would be very useful for clarity and avoiding future confusion (I thought it was a roast turkey for the longest time)

alas the age of custom plat icons is behind us. Perhaps it will return some day, but that day is not today.

I will return and unleash the egg, among others, when the unknowable, lumbering, arcane machine that is Forums Tech can be deciphered by our scholars.

hypothetically i know how to do it, but making them is kind of tricky and idk. you make them as svg files or smth and then make a css and apply that to users.

overall, it's 50/50 tech and policy. like even when i get it working, I'm not particularly thrilled about how they were handed out and why. if they were tied in to big forums events, fundraisers, charity drives, whatever, that's one thing, but we were kind of ... slapdash? with them in the past.

Almost giving the egg, but in the end not giving the egg is the funnier option imo. Another QCS success story.

any chance the scaling could be fixed on mine, too, when you are able to get to it? keep in mind my support for pog hangs on this.

actually everyone proper protocol is street fighter for forums grudge matches. i dont make the rules, the precedent has already been set

In The White Mountains by John Christopher, a beloved childrens' book about life in the aftermath of an alien conquest of Earth which has reduced human culture to a medieval state, the protagonists at one point come across a cache of hand grenades, which they describe as "metal eggs".

So in a way, pog has already gotten his heart's desire.
