Ali, Limey - I had no idea either.
But then I don't think of that sort of thing really. I tend to take posters at face value.

I was here while Mari was, although not for as long as others.
She welcomed me when I first came and I didn't have any personal issues with her.
It was right for her to go when she did, because things were becoming untenable.

However I feel I have really connected with you, Sam.
I know more about you in general terms and you have been both supportive to me and positive about your own situation.
You've been honest in every other way, and let's face it, four years behind the curtain shows commitment. I'd probably have wanted to jump out and shout "BOO" long before now.

Hey there new old-timer.

Mari? No shit.

Never would have guessed. Completely clueless. Low flying airplane clueless.

And no avatars. They don't help. Just as soon as you get used to one, they get changed, and then there are all of those damned epileptic fit causing flashing ones, and ... it's just not good. We're not that kind of a forum. Encourages the wrong sort of nonthinking people that barely write in chatspeak.

Banning gifs would eliminate the flashing ones. If you really wanted to be strict, you could only allow head and shoulder shots.

I know they would change from time to time, but I still think it would help me keep people straight.

I agree with this. I don't see how avatars encourages the wrong sort of non-thinking people. Avatars show individuality and it also dresses the board up a little so it doesn't look so boring. I've seen many forums over my years on the internet and this is one of the very few that doesn't allow them.

Of course this is just my opinion and I'm sure you're all thinking I should just shut the fuck up since I'm the newbie.

Then why is it that 95% of forums use them?
