But it would also be a disaster if everyone decided to change to the same avatar

Why? There are some users with e.g. your avatar and I fail to see any "disaster", you only have to pay attention to the username, which is unique.

Rather, I'd put some effort into usernames rather than avatars, to avoid the "theyrnos" issue that caused actual loss of funds to some (admittedly clueless) people.

The username is a small part of noticing a member. The first thing we tend to notice is the avatar.

- no two members can have the same avatar

This would be en enforcement nightmare.

But it would also be a disaster if everyone decided to change to the same avatar (it has been done in the past).

Actually that would be quite amusing!

Drat my avatar is taken…
Bah I'll just change one pixel!

Yeah, this won't really work. Not sure if avatars should be limited to a certain rank either. Everyone could have them before the hack and all this will do is cause confusion and countless threads from newbs asking why they can't have avatars.

I wouldn't think so. Yes, a couple of threads were made regarding why users couldn't add or change avatars after the hack but not many people ask anymore (the message got across pretty fast), possibly due to the message when you attempt to add/change an avatar.
