Yeah, and a gore picture is just pixels too. But it is still against the rules and it shall stay that way. Imps, grombies, vampires, humans, centaurs, zurgs and all the skins you can put on avatars, are AVATARS. The alruna is NOT an avatar. She is not supposed to follow the same rules, as it is an ACCESORY. Why not putting a skirt on the nymph I am wearing right now? She is showing her hiney when I turn my back. Or better yet, let's re-interpret the rules as our own desires because of a little amount of pixels. When I see a n****e in the Alruna I'll complain too. I don't. She could be showing just a portion of her bust and leaving the rest to the imagination. That is something that can't be accomplished with avatars and I have to add that it was beautifully done with the Alruna. No need to call this hypocrisy. It is not. It is fantasy and imagination.

Then can we have dildos on Gaia? It is NOT our avatar so it doesn't have to follow the same rules as our avatars, yes?

I realize that it is in actuality a little different, but it's just for the sake of argument. You can't say that Gaia can break it's own rules because "it's an item not our avatar" or else we would be able to do a lot more with items that otherwise wouldn't be allowed.

@ xcrimsonlegendx: Then do you support our avvies being topless? I mean, we're like a manikin, too, there's nothing wrong with our nippleless breasts, yes? But for some reason people seem to think there is a problem.

I have to head to bed now, but I'll check back on these threads tomorrow after work.
It's obvious, that a large portion of the influence for Alruna came from Morrigan from Dalkstalkers.
So, my thought, perhaps she also dresses like her, and since she is leaning forward, we wouldn't be able to see that, also considering we can't see her torso.

Look at that picture, and tell me it wouldn't look like Alruna if she was bending over.

Come on, they aren't even detailed enough to look like real boobs anyway. Besides, I'm pretty sure Gaia allows artistic nudity. It's not being used as anything sexual.

Know how we can balance it out? Let female avatars be topless. Men are allowed to be topless. Why not women? I'm not kidding here. xd


maybe its because men dont have boobs?

They could require male avatars to wear chest wraps to cover up unsightly and disturbing wounds? wink That would be rude, though, since it presumes that all males suffer from physical injuries.

PLEASE, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, don't cover up Alruna.
She is quite beautiful how she is now.
Concurred 100%! Please, don't change her.

If all this complaining gets a perfectly good item ruined I swear I will NEVER give Gaia another
penny from my pocket...

Anime girls have the same n****e-less breasts all the time.
It's like a manikin, there's nothing wrong with it...

THANK YOU ive couldnt have put it any better myself.

Seriously, people need to relax a bit.
By this logic half of the anime monsters need to be ripped from TV because they're nude.
It's no different then Marilyn Manson with his fake breast suit...

Well I didn't realize that there was complaining over it.

Honestly, when I saw the new evolution, I was in awe over the beauty of it! What a great stage!

If people are offended by it, they need to grow the hell up. Seriously. There aren't even any nipples on the girl. And if they can show that same level of "nudity" on Sailor Moon to children, I think Gaians can handle it.
i think more of the problem is people seeing alruna have "bare breast" makes others think that female avis should be able to have bare breast to.



EXACTLY.


Ah, I see. Sigh, the whining that goes on on Gaia... you'd think that it were a life or death situation. XD


A life and death situation indeed.
The artist worked well and hard for this - and we reward him with moralfag whining?.

If anything, we should be offering him our thanks!.

Wishlist: two lusty scoundrels (for a mule)


To be clear here: we are not going to get female topless avatars. EVER. We are not getting sexually explicit items EVER. We are not getting explicit nude avatars EVER. I am sure that there was a LOT of work put not only in the design of the Alruna, but also around the fact that she may or may not show breasts. The item made it to the evolution the way she is because it compiles with the rules. A topless female avatar wouldn't. Wearing whatever skin you want. Why am I not seeing threads about how the panthercoax has nails and our avatars don't? the difference here is that a topless female avatar WOULD by all means be explicit nudity. The Alruna, as it is, is NOT explicit nudity. It is suggested. There is NO WAY AT ALL to make suggested nudity with a female avatar. THAT is why the Alruna does NOT have to follow the rules avatars do. Avatars can't pull that off. This item can.

I seriously hope that they don't change her.

Just because Alruna gets to show her breasts off doesn't mean we can. Sure, it's not fair but there's not a lot out there that is. We'll just have to get over the fact that Alruna has a nicer chest than we can hope to have. crying

The recent evolution of the Alruna's Rose is a marvel, pleasing to the eye.

The artist who drew it deserves a kudos and free pizza for the whole year.

Clean cut and simple.

If gaia wanted female avatar to have the ability to be topless, it would have been allowed from the start. It wasn't, it never will. Female avatars were never intended to ever have the ability to be topless since the begining

Just like if Gaia wanted to censor the alruna. If they thought it needed to be censored, it would have been from the start. But it wasn't, so it wont change. The alruna was designed and intended to be as it is and if there was a problem then it wouldn't have made it to where it is now.

Just because an item(pose) has the ability to doesn't mean an avatar SHOULD.
I don't understand what the big deal is. The gaian pixel artists and item creators (everyone involved) are smart in realizing that yes, there are younger users, thus they made it more like a silhouette, but they also gave enough shading and shape to suggest sex appeal. They have already "toned it down" for younger users. After all this is an anime/manga based community, and it wouldn't be realistic to say that there are no similar pictures in many mangas and anime.....my point being people need to realize that it could be a LOT worse and more adult looking. As for some users complaining about the skin tone: I'm sorry but Alruna's rose clearly caters to certain tastes (be it goth or otherwise) and everyone deserves to be represented equally. Not everyone likes tan beach bunnies you know. heart

I'm glad - the purpose of this thread is fullfilled. smile
I don't really mind, as long as I getta show my boobs too! I think a little more cover-up would be nice.

I also notice that most of the people against changing it are boys. Hee hee! I laugh. Has anyone else noticed that?
