Stupid sale team and perverted illustration

You guys are completely losing it at Frogster. There is an item in the phirius token shop that cast you one phirius token and you get... wait for it, waaait for it... one phirius token. What a deal!! Who's brilliant idea was that? Are you guys a bunch of morons or what?

And whoever does your illustation for Flo and Andy is now puttin graphic drawings into their cartoon. The emblem on his laptop looks aweful similar to the male penis with something flowing from the end. Come on now i know this is rated teen but there are kids playing this game.

They are not drawing stick figures when they create the people they are drawing why would they draw a Pear that obviously does not look like a Pear. A pear is more rounded at the bottom not scrotum looking at the bottom.

Its rated T for Teen for a reason. It doesn't mean, "This game is rated T for teen but we will gladly change things to accommodate your children."

Actually, with more than 3000 varieties cultivated around the world, what you know as a pear may well be quite different to what the artist in question knows as a pear. The world is much bigger than our own backyards.

Besides, I prefer to dwell on the shape of paw paws (papaya? not sure what you call them in the US).

The 'morons' that thought it up are the 'morons' who have helpfully provided a tutorial on how to use the Item Shop.

Whichever way you want to view it, this is still a good thing.

Unless you think that the money could best be used for other things, I mean personally having those comics come out seems like an inappropriate use of resources.

I'm going to stay on topic... but um... I have to agree with one thing that's for sure. The image on his laptop totally looks like what a teenager would draw on his notebook... A scrotum and well...you know. I thought that IMMEDIATELY. I'm not thinking perverted... It is what it is. I'm pretty sure if we were to take a vote... everyone would feel the same way. I don't know if I agree with the bashing... But it did make me want to start a new thread. Glad someone else said something first. ><

The argument's got merit... though to be honest, I'm not one to be offended by it. Didn't even notice it till you said something. Personally if it was intentionally done, I probably would've found it more amusing than the comic, as it was a hidden easter egg...

While it is certainly phallic, I don't quite see what is so perverted about that. It is clearly a pear, not anything else. Interesting to see that Flo's laptop has a cherry on top. Suggestive perhaps? I would think that this is rather clever and subtle than perverted, but each to their own opinions I suppose.

The fact that you think p-word first when you see that fruit, just proves that you, yourself are perverted and lack imagination. When human see things they don't understand, their brains will just build up the rest from their own memory to make some sense out from nothing. Very similar to how people see faces everywhere with 2 holes on top of another one or whatever if you look at the clouds. Some see fruits, some see insects, some see... well you know what, everywhere...

Yeah it is like this picture.

Most adults will see a couple embracing - children only see seven dolphins. Try it out, it really is true.

Yeah guys, pears have stuff squirting from their tips. Or its one of those rare two stem pears. That pear must be ripe to cause it has such a defined base, like two juicy filled...

Uh huh I see it, ignore the fanboys, the creators are pervs

It couldn't be a stem and a leaf? Looking something like the Mac logo? Nah, that would be silly.

I'm sure there is a joke in here somewhere, its just really mean and might get me in trouble. I'll just say that if this is a major issue to you, I would love to see you visit your local grocery store and make the same complaint. The questions asked by the op were answered and I don't see this topic going anywhere positive, so closed.
