Avatar changed without consent

Somehow, without my action or consent, my forum avatar was changed. I've changed it back to something neutral. 

Has my account been hacked?

  • We've switched out the default avatar set that comes with the forum to now show characters from Apex Legends. I assume that's what happend here. Sorry, if that gave you a bit of a fright, but I can assure you that you were not hacked!

    Am I able to change my avatar to a photo of my own choice? My photo doesn't represent me... Also, I'm unable to create new posts for some reason.

    Thanks for reporting this! This was indeed broken, but a fix is in-flight.
    In fact it seems partially resolved as of now (I can see some avatars again).

    In regard to posting, can you try again and report back if you are able to create new posts now?
