Title: My avatar just randomly changed...?
Post by: Steven Velocity on October 24, 2009, 18:42
I just posted a bit ago & I noticed my avatar was different, not the one I've had for quite some time now. It changed to a smiley face holding a sign that said F  s:scared: :scared: s:scared:  k You. (Which I promptly deleted when I noticed). I use the same avatar on SC linked from the same site and it is still the same as when I put it there. Does this mean my ROC account has been compromised? Has anyone else's avatar suddenly changed? I'm going to change my password, but I thought I post this up in there is a concern...

I thought SC uploads all avatars to the site these days, even if you link them from another site?  s:? :? s:?  

The link to your avatar on SC is:
 m http://www.spyderchat.com/forums/image. ... 1255572084 (http://www.spyderchat.com/forums/image.php?u=1831&dateline=1255572084) m

So I'm guessing someone hosting that image changed it and you had direct link to it from here, but not from SC.
