Petition to ban players with NSFW Profile pictures.

Technically speaking they already are, but we are talking about games rated 18+ with adult themes so what counts as inappropriate is usually is relaxed from our side. If you think that in that context something is still inappropriate you can always report the profile on our forum.

Xerxes This dude's a real one.

To compromise, I wonder if a setting could be made by Plutonium to disable forum picture visibility on our end, so only the emblem from the game is shown when we are in our games. There are too many players who are getting these profile pictures, and it is a pain to report them, especially with the reputation requirement, and of course, we will still have to see them.

edit: Additionally, my dad, my sister, my girlfriend, and myself have all started playing MW3 again to relive some old memories. This has unfortunately become such an issue that we may uninstall if we cannot find a solution. I tried making a dedicated server just for us but it did not work out.

It happens the same way in Call of Duty Mobile, where some players abused the system and ended up using NSFW profile pictures if you were logged in with Facebook or Google.
Eventually, Activision disabled that option — and something similar happened with Farlight 84.
I think NSFW content should be completely banned. I come to Plutonium to play games and relive some old memories, not to see random weirdo using inappropriate NSFW profiles.
For example, Zloemu allows in-game avatars for Battlefield 4, but on their page they clearly state:

“No Nazi, porn, etc.
Breaking this rule will result in your avatar being disabled.”

This platform is not a porn site — so it’s only normal that such content should be disabled or banned.

I wholeheartedly agree with you but there's someone that i follow that did an nsfw camo for the LSAT on bo2 but it's barely noticeable. Not that I would use a camo like that myself, I'm just saying you rarely see the detail

Weapon camos only affect the person who has installed them.
For instance, if you were playing vanilla MW3 and you got all the gold camos unlocked, and I joined the same server, you would not be able to see if I have a custom gold camo or not. Because the game will only show you the camos that you have installed (the defaults).

But in MW3, the profile pictures are rendered into the game. I don't mind that some weirdo uses NSFW as camo.
But why do I have to see some random male or female genitalia every time I get killed? It’s not my problem that they have the necessity to jerk off every 30 seconds or so.

Such a setting got added with the release of the feature.
Try to set the dvar cl_noForumAvatars to 1.

Xerxes Thank you, I believe this has fixed the issue for me!
