      Morocco coach as an avatar, at least compensation for the damage will often be by paying the coins, but it's okay as long as it is not a huge number and with the little time left for us in the game

        Iโ€™ve been around for about 15+ years now. Maybe way too long but thatโ€™s another subject.

        In all those years i have never ever had a conversation with anyone about avators that are offensive in any way. Who decides what it offensive or not?
        Avators is the only way to make your account YOURS! Is this now been taken away from us?
        Nutts, crazy, unbelievable idea. 1001 things to improve, and THIS is on the top of the list?

        Maybe next time try to ask the paying (!) customer what THEY think is important to improve.

        Avatar, a simple small part of the game. But the only way to make your account YOURS.
        Heyโ€ฆ. Letโ€™s take that away from all managers.

        I will stop now before i wet my pants laughingโ€ฆ

          We have bad and good news.

          • Let's start with the bad news.
            We will no longer support uploading custom avatars for your manager or your Crew.
            Custom avatars are great, we all love uploading football images that suit us best. But there's a big downside and that's inappropriate content.
            Everyone can upload inappropriate images that will be shown to over a million managers right away.
            Of course, there's only a very small percentage of managers who would think of doing this. But still, it's dangerous and unsafe. And it happens.

          • In with the good news.
            We will be adding new avatars to OSM to choose from. So with this update, coming soon, every manager will get the same default avatar but can pick a new one from a cool selection. We thought of some cool stuff but we also want your input to create new avatars.
            Let us know which avatars you would like to have!

          And how will the next update be? Pay to equip an avatar? We all know by now that pestering competitive players to fix a problem caused by a few non-competitive players is easier than putting on your overalls and doing what you're supposed to do, ban.

          You could improve the competitive side of OSM instead of further damaging it.

            Worst excuse ever๐Ÿค‘ ,
            We all should stay of the internet then ๐Ÿ˜‚
            Just ban the guy if itโ€™s offensive. Probably gonna take a while but we are used to it.
            Iโ€™ve seen more inappropriate nicknames then images on here why donโ€™t you filter them out with the sign up ?
            And whatโ€™s the point of crews now? itโ€™s like you play every weekend the same club with the same logo and the same colors .
            What a joke.

              @SpecialOne Managers usernames can be innappropriate and used in malicious way as well.. maybe you should give us all User ID's generated by the game so that those people cannot use managers names with bad language as well ๐Ÿ˜‰

              I know its bit harder to monetise that but oh well ๐Ÿ˜‰

                        Thanks everyone for sharing their input and discontent with this feature update (I believe we weren't clear enough on when this is coming). It's coming soon.

                        I just wanted to weigh in saying that we will not be charging anything for the avatars that we are offering. We might someday, but as with everything in OSM, the huge majority of content is free. So you would only use Boss Coins to pay for extra special ones for example. But again, this not even on the list for now. All avatars with this update will be free.

                        And to explain a bit more about why we're doing this. We have over a million managers. Someone can upload inappropriate content every single second which is available to everyone to see. This is a serious problem because there are minors playing our game. And the sentiment around user generated content is changing everywhere. From governments, to Google, to games.

                        Ideally, we would moderate the inappropriate avatars like some of you already suggested. This simply isn't possible due to the huge scale of avatars in OSM. There are no tools available for us that can easily detect inappropriate content for images. And we also can't check every avatar before it's uploaded.

                        These things combined forced us to make this call. On one hand we're happy that OSM will be safer, on the other we also loved having custom avatars as it's a great way to add a piece of your own personality to OSM. But we also think that this new system can be cool too. We can easily add new ones, also based on what the community wants. I hope we can turn our attention to thinking about cool stuff we can add. ^Luuk

                          @harry-poon Yes, I agree if some people use inappropriate Avatar it will be bad, but why do we need to pay BC to get avatars this is only to make people lose BC right?

                          Why not make all the avatars that will be available free

                          You are making two bad mistakes.

                          1. You are stopping us from using custom Avatars
                          2. You are making us pay BC to use Avatars that will be available

                          Do you guys only know money and Boss Coins?

                          Tell me on which date this update will be available, then i will know when i will stop OSM.

                                @maniek_56 I agree to some extent. We are as disappointed as you that this beautiful part of the game will be less creative. But still, we will be able to replace at least some of it's creativity if we manage to become creative ourselves in searching for new ones we can add.

                                  I just wanted to weigh in saying that we will not be charging anything for the avatars that we are offering. We might someday, but as with everything in OSM, the huge majority of content is free. So you would only use Boss Coins to pay for extra special ones for example. But again, this not even on the list for now. All avatars with this update will be free.

                                  And to explain a bit more about why we're doing this. We have over a million managers. Someone can upload inappropriate content every single second which is available to everyone to see. This is a serious problem because there are minors playing our game. And the sentiment around user generated content is changing everywhere. From governments, to Google, to games.

                                  Ideally, we would moderate the inappropriate avatars like some of you already suggested. This simply isn't possible due to the huge scale of avatars in OSM. There are no tools available for us that can easily detect inappropriate content for images. And we also can't check every avatar before it's uploaded.

                                  These things combined forced us to make this call. On one hand we're happy that OSM will be safer, on the other we also loved having custom avatars as it's a great way to add a piece of your own personality to OSM. But we also think that this new system can be cool too. We can easily add new ones, also based on what the community wants. I hope we can turn our attention to thinking about cool stuff we can add. ^Luuk

                                    @fear-force You are right. But I also wrote "We might someday". Meaning that we could introduce avatars for Boss Coins in the future but aren't planning on that now. However that will go, all avatars in this update will be free. Sorry if I was being unclear.

                                        @harry-poon Ok, but why will we need to pay to have an avatar while all these years it was free, and everyone had custom Avatars. That means you are planning to make us pay BC to get good avatars in the future๐Ÿ˜• ๐Ÿ˜ž ๐Ÿ˜ž

                                          @maniek_56 I agree to some extent. We are as disappointed as you that this beautiful part of the game will be less creative. But still, we will be able to replace at least some of it's creativity if we manage to become creative ourselves in searching for new ones we can add.

                                          @harry-poon Now everything can interfere with avatars. Color, symbol, pattern, shape. Maybe there will be cool, nice avatars. However, this will not make any impression on adult players
