Avatar update
-
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

@markusrw5 It isn't porn, it's simply an ad of the Alibaba company. However, the ad isn't the most appropriate

it is not about what you use. When you visit any site, this site is saveing cookies on your computer, sometimes (e.g. google, amazon) store them in coordination with the IP adress used. If you now surf on any site which is playing advertisment, the cookies will be used to see what you are interested in. Then there will be an advertisment which fits your last earches or pages you have visited.

@harry-poon What about usernames? When will you remove that as well as words can be offensive ans inappropriate as well? Crew names as well? When are you removing that?
Just give us User IDs and Crew IDs. We must be safe!@majstor-matt Yes, we will also be looking to implement moderation of manager names. At first for new names so offensive content is blocked when creating a manager or Crew.
-
@harry-poon It would be better to implement an option to report an offensive profile or photo, but this would be a bit more work and would not bring money... which is more important than listening to the OSM Players who bring the game to life...
@alfonso75 We will be working on reporting as well. But still, we won't be able to cover everything and that's necessary.

The new avatar feature will be available today on all platforms as soon as the new release is set live.
For both manager and Crew avatars, we now offer a selection of cool avatars which you can use to express & identify yourself. Or just to prank your Friends.
We've always had the luxury of uploading your own custom avatar. Unfortunately, this is exploited by a small part of our managers by uploading inappropriate content.
It's impossible to moderate avatars from over a million managers. That's why, to guarantee a safe and healthy football experience, we're forced to remove custom avatars.
Be one of the first to pick the brand new avatars. There are some awesome managers, players & clubs. And new ones will follow in the future.

What a unbelievable good reason for this fantastic and terrific feature!!!

Together with the avatars update we also included an external party app that moderates the written text in several languages. It will be replacing text considered offensive by ***.
Some words that are ok on one language may not be ok on others, so they will also be censored. In case you find any and your message is not understandable you may have to use a synonim.
This will be active also on crew names, squad names (fantasy teams, KO) and also on league names. If word chosen is 'blacklisted it won't let you proceed!
