Hi there.
A fool and his money are easily separated- even more when this fool is bored and drunk.
But my loss could be your gain- all you have to do is play a little game with the rest of us.

As you all may know, the second most popular thread on these forums is the "Rate the Avatar above You" thread, where players give more or less constructive feedback on other player's avatars.

But only a small portion of players posts in this thread regularly, so the thread has gotten kind of dull.
But if so many people enjoy it, maybe it's time to take it to the next level...to give some love to those who stay away from this thread.

I believe that it is time to remind the rest of the forum warriors, that the EVE-O forums are a cold and harsh place of emergent posting and player-generated threads- a place where you agree with non-consensual avatar-rating the moment you press the "post" button.

The idea is simple: Rate other players' avatars- outside the RtAaY-thread and outside the OOPE sub forum and post results in this thread.

Rule #1
: Do not talk about TBAC.
Seriously, no mentioning it outside this thread- it will ruin most of the fun and will get you disqualified.

Rule #2: No overused Fight Club quotes.

Rule #3: Be friendly and constructive all the time.
Give them good and comprehensive advice on how to improve their avatars, never insult or openly ridicule them. Always remember that we are the good guys here.

Rule #4: Stay off-topic.
Your posts must be about the avatar picture and nothing else. Of course you may reply to the other player should he react to your rating, but anything you say that relates to the actual topic of the thread will get this single contribution disqualified.

Rule #5: Out of Pod Experience, New Citizens Q&A and the localized forums are off-limit.
Everywhere else is legitimate pvp-area. Naturally, you should be looking for highly emotional whine/nerf threads to spread some rating-love and receive the funniest replies that will let you win the challenge.

Rule #6: Copy and paste your results in this thread.
Also, link to the original thread/post. You might also take screenshots, if you fear deletion by mods.

Rule #7: Like (upvote) the funniest contributions posted in here.
The contribution with the most likes by the end of this month (January 31st) will then be rewarded with 100 million ISK.

I'd like to apologize for the poor quality of the post above and sincerely hope you didn't waste your time reading it. Yes, I do feel bad about it.
