I like it, but I wish there was a poll or something for the community to vote on for these types of things. Them just doing it isn't offensive either, but if it was to become a regular thing I'd like my say on it haha

I think it's cool. Nice little festive addition to the forum. And let's just say ERA needs that sort of positive spirit a lot of the time.

Why? They run this place, let them have a little fun. We don't need to vote on everything... it's just a logo.

I like the idea of it and it'd be interesting to see it change a little more often for major game/film releases as long as the community is behind it.

It's cool, I like it.
Nice little way to celebrate the release. Hope they do it more for future titles

I'm somewhere between "No Opinion and I like it."

Whatever, let people have fun. It is a videogame forum after all, and it doesn't have to switch to whatever your favorite game is every month. If you don't like it, override the CSS with your favorite game.

Needing to be included in discussions over a little Easter Egg adds a layer of formality that undermines the entire frivolous, fun point of small community related nods and accents.

They've changed the logo before. Think it would be neat to do for big releases in the future.

I didn't even notice it had changed until I saw this thread. I don't care. It's fun for people who like the game and shouldn't matter to anyone else since it doesn't impact the experience of using the site.

They run this place for us though? If it becomes a regular occurrence why is the community having a voice on it a bad thing? if you don't want to vote then don't vote. The people who do want to vote can.

Didn't even notice it.
Ehh.. it's fine. Nice to do as a special ode to special games.
If anyone answered 2 or 3.... you seriosuly need to re-evaluate your life.

Caving to the nay-sayers is literally taking the "a handful are offended so we do nothing at all."

I actually forgot we used to do this here, keep doing it. ERA has gotten way too combative and try-hard serious, we need more light-hearted and fun stuff like this.

You should either enjoy it, or not care. Anything else is effectively rooted in console warrior garbage or some strange sense of entitlement.

It's a logo for a forum website. I don't care. But I also kind of like seeing change from time to time. I voted I like it.

Looks like they got paid by MS. I know they didn't, but still. And why just Gears? What about other games?

Kinda weird.

It's neat.

And I feel like I'm inclined to be reactionary when confronted with forum changes.

I'd like to see more themed logo changes for other stuff in the future.

I'd personally love to get some more information about how decisions regarding this and other things affecting the site are made and who if anyone is included in the process. The running of the site and communication has become more and more opaque in the past year in my opinion and I wish there was more dialogue with the community as a whole rather than small groups or single individuals.

I'm somewhere between "No Opinion and I like it."
No opinion also doubles for "I don't hate it" and "I'm ok with it", hope it helps.
