> e: apparently the avatar and account name was changed in response to transphobic tweets by notch, at least according to a random twitter user

That’s an overstep on the part of the admins/mods IMO. Either ban someone if you don’t want them there, or leave their stuff alone. Don’t go editing other people’s names and profile pictures. No bueno.

It’s basically because of a meme created after Notch was outed for his transphobic tweets (and was even kicked out from the credits for Minecraft), people were all saying that Hatsune Miku created Minecraft. Hence the anime character with the trans flag on it, I think its actually a bit hilarious.
