Re: Why is my face on the One Million Members ad on the front page?!Haha, awh, shucks! Aye, I sure didn't get any "Excusez-moi, is it okay if we put your Fresher face on our front page so it assaults our (almost) million members every time they visit?"(Original post by ToastyCoke)
Well they're hardly going to choose someone who's not a looker are they? You'd have thought they might have told you though. :/
Nice one.
S'cool, though!

Re: Why is my face on the One Million Members ad on the front page?!Haha, well it's a nice picture. I'm sure they used it to gain a few more members. I'd probably just have stared at it for a few minutes before it clicked it was me. So there you go, assaulting thousands of peoples faces without even knowing!(Original post by Kezzi)

I wonder how long it'll be there?

Re: Why is my face on the One Million Members ad on the front page?!Ahahaha! Mystery solved.(Original post by Foo.mp3)
My best guess is that the admin responsible for such things was fapping away to pics of members and yours just happened to be the one he 'landed on' when it came time to post the story

hmm, I'd be a bit pissed if my photo was used without my permission. Especially given these T&C's for using TSR:
"2.2 Users shall retain ownership rights in the text, messages, chat, files, images, photos, video, sounds, musical works, works of authorship or any other materials that they from time to time post or transmit to the Website (the “User-Generated Content”).

They really should have asked you first, but if you don't mind then I guess no harm done... -

I see your 2.2 and raise you a 2.2.1:

touché, I didn't spot that one. Not sure I agree with TSR's T&C's, it's a bit of a **** move in my opinion. One more reason not to post any pictures of myself... -
Re: Why is my face on the One Million Members ad on the front page?!Haha, I'm flattered!(Original post by Studentus-anonymous)
They couldn't find a photo of me so had to settle for the next best thing.
You aint shabby for a substitution.
(Also shame on the admins for fapping to members!)
And cripes, I really hope they don't. Naughty admins!
