I biased poll to generate the response they want, coupled with a fat disclaimer.

Sierk specified to me when I was AGM he didn't want users to have pictures in their avatar and unless his mind has changed then his wish should be respected.

hes not around and we have a new owner.

Absolutely. It's his forum though, we could have endless joint owners and Habbox would still belong to sierk as far as I'm concerned. It's like on CH - they don't allow you to post your email. On HabboForum - they don't like you posting your DOB in threads. Different sites have different things, which other ones allow. Habbox don't like you posting pictures in your avvy. None of them really hold that much weight but it's just the way it goes!

I'd like to know why you feel it is biased, and your evidence to back this up.

Just put a picture of someone else in your avatar (I could put Immenseman in my avatar) with their consent. Simple ;)

It belongs to both Jin and sierk considering the amount of time Jin puts into it and helps pay for it too out of his own money.
Before Mizki owned it, jrh2002 owned the forum, but they left and sierk stayed on.

But I agree, every forum have their own things.

If you cared to read the thread, you'll notice I said this earlier:

Edit: Congratulations to whoever can't frame an unbiased poll. Of course most people here don't want to put a personal photo as an avatar... but you should be asking whether members would mind if other members did. Phrasing a poll the wrong way around to generate the response you want is a shambles.

It's biased because it isn't sensitively worded. I don't think I need to drill into evidence because we all know (or should know) the problems with biased polls. (Hint: a question at referendum is scrutinised to make sure it's as neutral as possible.)
