**What do you think?
Is it just me or something no feel right when EVERYONE has avatars? ;)
I personally think we should keep it at the 1,000 level.
So..are there any other snobs like me out there?
**Just incase you didn't catch it...the title of the thread is a joke. Relax people!
:rolleyes:
No way - they must earn the avatar!

Earn the avatar
Earn the avatar

hehe, I know I'm not elite, but i voted for the narcissistic... (I am what can I do...):D
I think 1000 should be the limit. No Joking.
I really think that avatars stay at 1000, along with titles at 500. When it was older, a person with an avatar I knew could help me and was a whiz. Now, It looks like a newbie designed the system.
Ill spam Starkey with email from the domain noavatarsfornewbies.com
Anyone want to buy that for me?:D
FK and w-h are actually the only boards I post at where you only got an avatar at 1000, most newer forum software allows you to turn them off which I often use. I'd have to cast my vote as "who really cares" on this one. (also having one anyway it never bothered me)
you should have to earn it, it encourages more posting, and makes you look cooler :cool:
i just hate newbies :p
Well always thought avatars should go to those who deserve them. Those who contribute to the the board.
1000+ post in the CL shouldn't count.
What a shame all the little buggers can be the same.
Yep, a "who cares" option would have been nice
Earning it just encourages more pointless posts in my opinion
The N/A option covers that pretty well.
I think this is a good healthy suggestion. :)
To me, the avatars always helped me pick out those who were kind of the backbone of the boards...those who knew the answer to a board related question.
I actually think the avatar/post count condition is a great idea...keeps the board from looking so cluttered.

I've made about 400 posts outside the lounge but I've certainly made many help posts in the lounge directing people who can't be arsed to use search engines to find tutes/useful info etc! But still, I like avatars, it's often an easy way to scan a thread and decide who to ignore :DQuote:

I 100% agree megatoon, avatars to those with more than 1000 posts outside of the lounge.Quote:

I HATE these damn polls.
Hopefully we can do away with them, they clutter up a board in a way that nothing else can.

Remind me to poll everyone about this. :)
C'mon DP...I don't like 'em much either...but only because some people can't post without making a darn poll out of it.
Maybe we should limit those to the Elite Club as well! :p
Oh and yeah...CL posts probably shouldn't count. Now that I have my avatar, I think that is a great idea. ;)
Chalk one up for who gives a rats...
I feel sorry for thee friend. :)Quote:

Anyway, besides that, I think you guys are right, and plus, with more ppl using avatars there's yet another concern, that has nothing to do with with the "I have more posts than you" issue, and thats bandwith consume. I have perfectly lived so far without an avatar, and will live oneither I have it or not, always trying to help if needed, in any forum, may it be the CL, D&G or whatever!
herr_dadda...how did you get a an avatar larger than 50x50?
Clif
i think people should earn them
its much funner that way :D
because the limit is 70x70 px or 15000 bytes, whatever comes first :)Quote:

maybe the elite, of the elite FK group, should be as snobby as these kids?

I do believe yours is not 50 by 50 cliff. Just a note.Quote:

Gerbs...you ARE the elite of the elite. You should be just as snobby as us less elite ones. :)
You are our idol. :p
talking about elite...
next time you point out somebody else's avatar size griffhiggins, I'm truly going to recommend that yours get's reduced.
mmkay?
Aww..keep your shirt on.
I was just curious...wanted to know if the bar had been raised. If it is...I won't be afraid to mess with mine.
That's all there is to it Gerby.
Clif
enough's enough, you think?
I thought I was going to find out what the hell h4x0rs and r0x0rs meant.
maybe to get an avatar you have to get on a web cam with y4rr written on your forehead.
don't give them ideas TGLC.Quote:

LOL...don't be so sure. :D
<grabs wheel of swerving car>

was that an option....
the more crazy stuff the better - love thy clutter...:D
