his avatar matched mine pixel by pixel, even the sha-1 hashes were the same.
i told him to change it but all he did was increase the brightness

I assume it used to be something different before?  Looks like you just changed it to a black thing since he's copying the link of it or something.

Is it really against the rules to copy avatars?

I do not believe so. However, if you own the copyright to an avatar, you are free to request that it be taken down. We'll gladly accept just normal requests like that, but if you insist, you can also send us a DMCA request. Either way, if you own the image, we'll remove that user's avatar.
