Avatar update
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!

@specialone If only you could turn your head on a little and think about it! Then you did at least like this .... As an avatar for the manager profile, and for the clan profile ..... disgrace ...
@_garson_ great idea
-
In my over 10 years of playing OSM I have never seen a manager with an offensive crew avatar or profile logo. I have only seen offensive usernames or Fantasy team names.
So I think there is just a very small chance that you see a manager or crew with an offensive logo.
I understand that there is being filtered on swearing words, but why no longer allow profile icons for something what is very fewly misused.
I think you should think again about this up(down)grade and eventually turn it back.
Where you eventually have the option to only chance a logo when your crew exists a certain time or when your profile has played over 200 matches.

@daniele-benjiamin What about offensive usernames? Im pretty sure there are more of them... Maybe give us all User ID's generated by the game wouldnt be bad? I hope they are thinking about that as well as I hate when I see offensive username...

What about offensive usernames?
it's always been the same with a difference that if you loook weel isn't so big.
Offenisve usernames couldn't be changed so users were locked. And they could create other accounts with other offenisve names just to joke.
Offensive avatars could be changed by users, but users after they changed often uploaded other new offensive images some days later.
So in both the situations there isn't an end as you can image.It seems that a porno avatar or an offenive name is a way to be cool with himself.
And in that time there weren't limitations that there are now by google and apple for developers, I think that now GB got to a limit and has been forced to take this decisions about avatars.
We only have to wait that the process will develop in a more efficient way to solve problems in chats and in crew's acronymsForum Moderator since 06/2017 - Staff Support since 11/2017 (18401 emails, 15269 cheater reports) - Italian Community Manager since 9/11/2021

Is it so hard to hire a graphic designer to give more options to users? Hard at least to give options to use club badges as avatars or all flags in world? All in all this all looked rushed and unprofessional at end and that is the biggest problem.

Greetings, when will the avatars of top coaches and clubs be introduced?
-
Why are there only white people in the avatars, I don't know whats worse, our funny avatars or OSM turning into KKK.
You may take our avatars, but you will never take our freedom
btw I'm a friend of jeff, just wanted to share that
@maskedandy_1 bro
there are black avatars
but ye this update is bad -
@SpecialOne
Can we please get some official stand from the game developers on these certain things that were most often asked in topic:- will there be expanse on the avatar quantity as this current options that you gave us are ridiculous for any game that has more than 100 users.
- will the crew avatars get any more options because it is low quality to have 10 flags of the world available as If other flags are not doable..
- will you do any work on the avatar feature in general and give some option to managers or are we stuck with this low level options forever?
Please give us some news so that we can know what the future holds so that we know is there any hope or are we stuck with this nonsense forever just like we are with these medal ranking that awards only cheaters and people who play low level empty leagues? Thanks in advance.

This was a first version of this new avatar 'model' and we didn't expected it to be perfect, so yes, there will be changes and improvements.
There're lots of ideas on how to improve it.
We'll be adding more avatars, some free and eventually some premium ones that you'll have to pay for them...
Of course that we won't be letting crews out of this. The reason why there are so few National flgs available it's because we only implemented the 10 most represented communities/nationalities. If this ends up being too negaive wihin crews community and since it's not viable to add all national flags, we may endup removing them all...
No OSM feature is 'closed', not even medal ranking, so yeah, it will for sure get updates in future!

@specialone Premium avatars? And you need to pay? Tottaly I not expected that... like guys above give us at least National flag to represent my country...
During 18 years of playing I noticed maybe 3-4 offensive avatar and I reported it... how many was blocked? 0..... -

@specialone Thank you very much for your answer. Sadly I have to downvote it as everything leads to "pay for your premium avatar" as expected. Also for medals and everything, of course nothing is closed but sadly nothing is being done so sadly those are pure talks. As long as we have that top 100 compiled with people who have 1 defeat in 500 matches we have nothing to talk about.
