I wouldn't call it an argument mur, and my previous comment might have been a bit too sharp. Trough I don't think custom avatars would solve the problem for there is simply a shortage of artist capable of delivering art of sufficing quality to be implemented into the game. Right now there are 225 avatars and 2458 users logged in in the last 48 hours that would mean roughly one avatar for every 10 players, leaving 9 out of 10 players without one. As I understand that the game's progress is more important than player avatars, there are just not enough artists to do both. A non-ideal temporary solution will have to be made.
