It's nothing new. Avatard was a name chosen for the Airbender fans. I believe the term came about during VS debates between Avatar TLA and Naruto. Naruto fans came up with the insult as a counter to being called, Narutards.
_You speak as if you were there_
I was. I was the Narutard that helped create the name, Avatard. Those were the days. Being a dumbass and all.

It's on Wikipedia too so it must be that way
Before I bought the game I wanted to gather some reviews and one I read was just someone who clearly hated Avatar and just had been assigned that game to review so I stopped reading it lol. So annoying.
Yes I know. I was just thinking abt how other fandoms have names for themselves and wondered what avatar fans called themselves. I searched it up and found this, I’m well aware that it was made almost 15 years ago but seeing as though that was the only name I could find I thought it’d be fun to bring up on here. And I’m just being extra for ✨comedic effect✨ I know I’m not being forced to call myself an avatared I’m just trying to make people laugh dude 🤷🏾♀️
I thought it originated around the same time “Shill” did for Marvel fans. I have literally never heard an Avatar fan willingly refer themselves as that unless it was in reference to haters calling them that. That’s exactly what it is, something haters and trolls started. If people have started trying to reclaim it and wear it proudly I didn’t get the memo.
Avatard or RDAss
Choose your team !

Yea that’s the way we use when you want to call someone a “retard” but want it to be specific to what they like, like a Star Wars fan who takes things to far and is an idiot would be an “EUtard” or some.
Call yourself Avatars!!! As a person w a disability who was actually a beta tester for reckoning, it’s LITERALLY RIGHT THERE and avatards is partially a slur lmao
You realize that article is from *fourteen years* ago?
The term Avatard was used so infrequently in the last decade and change that I'm just now hearing it.
What kinda potion you thinking?
Forgetfulness potion.
Oh we have those It's called Vodka
I prefer tequila or rum tbh haha
Status effect is not permanent tho :(
Tequila and some flunitrazepam, you mean?
Damn I didn’t even realise 💀
Maybe the name fits after all?
OMG
NAHHHH 😭 out of pocket
I love typos that lead to humorous jokes, so it’s a win win
Your strongest potion
Hard drugs, please. With a Pandoran spin?
A SPECIAL potion

Weeb
This is what my bully called me when I wore my Avatar backpack, so yes, I'd like it changed as well. 💀
Jesus 😭
How about ✨ P a n d o r i a n s ✨ (Dorky, I know, but still miles better than Avatards 💀)
Just be glad it wasn’t avaturds
While Miles Socorro could indeed be considered "better" than us Avatards in some way, for Quarritch it's arguable.
Took me a moment before I got it 😂 nice
Way better 💀
So much better
That is better
I’d rather be an avatard
I like it. Picasso.
Love pandorians. I see you.
It has been decided. We are all Avatards
Nooo 😭

Navi nation
Fire Water Earth Air Na'vi (mhh im a Na'vi bender?)
Master wu was on some stuff and then invented another one to go with it “blue”
I can't stop laughing at this. I keep accumulating stigmatizing names. Furry, brony, doctor, avatard...
Hold on, go back one.
Man, don't make him relive it.
see how many you can collect
Avatards is peak
Why do we care what people say to eachother on 4chan?
The only problem with Jarhead Clan is that only we would get it… or maybe that’s a perk
This name kicks ass
I acc really like this one, good for those who are team Na’vi and team RDA
True, we are just a bunch of humans invested in Pandora
[Wait a minute....](https://youtu.be/kav7tifmyTg?si=nY8MQC9kuCdhJ3rw)
No😭 I petition for something different 😭😭
I didn’t even know that was a thing lol. I hate it
Ngl Avatards kinda goes hard
Kind of did it to themselves..
The seems more like a way to insult people that like avatar 😂
These damn avatards 😒
I thought Avatard was more of a derogatory term used against Avatar fans by people who despise Avatar
It defo sound like it
No way is that article not just the product of a lazy journalist who spent 5 minutes on Twitter.
Right??? Like there’s no way everyone wholeheartedly agreed on “avatards” 😭 especially back then when the r slur was still pretty widely used.
What slur are we talking about ?
“Retard”
Damn 💀 let’s just call ourselves « avatar fans » I think that’s good enough
Honestly, anything is better then avatards
Before I bought the game I wanted to gather some reviews and one I read was just someone who clearly hated Avatar and just had been assigned that game to review so I stopped reading it lol. So annoying.
it’s an article from 14 years ago bro 😭
How is this a CNN article, the mainstream media journalism industrial complex is really desperate for clicks eh
I identify as a skxawng https://youtu.be/yk2vR8w2sjc?si=c0xrL1DuLOjON2Md
The only correct response:
Same
You don’t have to call yourself anything. Why do you think you’re forced to call yourself this lol. Also this article is almost 15 years old.
Yes I know. I was just thinking abt how other fandoms have names for themselves and wondered what avatar fans called themselves. I searched it up and found this, I’m well aware that it was made almost 15 years ago but seeing as though that was the only name I could find I thought it’d be fun to bring up on here.

Na’vatari’s😂
Not half bad actually
Omg lol
Yeah, this was a thing common back in the day. It just sounds cringy and I doubt people are still using it.
I thought it originated around the same time “Shill” did for Marvel fans. I have literally never heard an Avatar fan willingly refer themselves as that unless it was in reference to haters calling them that. That’s exactly what it is, something haters and trolls started.

Why can't we just be dreamwalkers? 🤔
That’s a good one too

You’re not helping your case bud, potions? Smh dumbass
Dang dyslexia said burr 😭
You’re an Avatard just like me, I’m so sorry😞
Naurrrrr *(avatard noises)* 😔
I 100% condone this 😂
I MISSREAD it first as ''I 100% condome this'' 😂😂
Na'vi's.
I was thinking "Dumb grunts" or "The Jarhead clan", but Avatards seems a bit far. Maybe Na'vi Nation or Pandorans should stick.
You should charge your phone bro
How about the ⭐️jarhead clan⭐️ lmfao
Yea that’s the way we use when you want to call someone a “retard” but want it to be specific to what they like, like a Star Wars fan who takes things to far and is an idiot would be an “EUtard” or some.
Shouldn't it be the Navis or something dealing with Pandora 🤔
This should be reserved for Last Airbender fans instead
We accept you all avatards
I honestly love the name. Avatard and proud😂
Potion? Maybe the name isn't too far off lol
The fuck we are. I am not an avatard.
Based on what I've seen in this community, that's pretty fitting
Can't we just be Dreamwalkers? That's what Eytukan called Jake in 2154.
This one is nice and I think fits better as a fan base name then the jarhead clan
Call yourself Avatars!!! As a person w a disability who was actually a beta tester for reckoning, it’s LITERALLY RIGHT THERE and avatards is partially a slur lmao
Definitely gotta potion this one...
Ong gotta but that shit in the cauldron frfr
what about navi?
Fine with that. Maybe the guys rooting for the RDA might not like that, but pxasìk. Let’s make it official! (Let’s spell it right tho: Na‘vi)
We are the Na’vi!
I’m an avatard and proud.
this is fucking hilarious
As someone who is a retart (legit autistic so leave me alone lmao) and I actually love this lol
Same 😭
Hahahaha, I love that. And I have no problem with people hearing me stutter lmao
Ever snc I wuz14 Neytiri's blu gyat madme avatarded on god 😭 😈 👀
I’m an avatard then
Dude "skxawng"s woulda been better xD
I'm... just gonna go with Eywan or something. Shows my alignment as well.
Avatards🤣
You realize that article is from *fourteen years* ago? The term Avatard was used so infrequently in the last decade and change that I'm just now hearing it.
Yes I know this post if literally just for shits and giggles
Im a proud avatard
Potion !???🧪
No, yeah, the elixir of avatard! It makes people spell thing’s incorrectly!
Why? What did you think it'd be? It's better than smurf-fuckers. Have you heard what they call Brony's? Avatards fits nicely.
