I just logged in today and I have noticed that my pfp in the TSR site have been changed to a sprite that I guess it's from Earthbound. I just wanted to know why that might have happened. Maybe because of copyright problems because I had an anime pfp? Or maybe I got hacked?
But it seems like my pfp has only changed on the resource sites, my old pfp is still showing on the TVGR threads.

Edit: It seems like everybody's PFPs in the VGR sites have changed to that Earthbound sprite, not just mine. Surprise
Just a random dude. I really love programming in C! Hopefully I can publish a game someday! Sometimes I like to rip Super Nintendo games too!

It's an April Fools joke. Tongue

It occurred to me too, but this time at around 12:00PM.

It's an April fools' joke, as DogToon said, but I don't know who could have planned this...

The funny part is, Mr. Saturn looks like Among us. That was probably intentional.

As has been explained multiple times, it was an April Fools' joke. The change has been reverted and everything should be back to normal now.

That's what I was thinking too. It might have tracked a bit better if the visor was added as well.
