Title: A question about Advatars
Post by: SoLiD_LiQuId on March 09, 2002, 08:10:50 AM
I had a question about the Advatars... How come It is disabled?? I\'m confused. I noticed that some of you guys have pics I\'m not complaining i\'m just wondering how you guys got pics when it has been disabled is there a certain number of posts you have to do to get your own pic???

Well, I now have enough for a avatar, yay!!! I have one in mind, but I\'m gonna wait a bit longer until my status increases a little more. 700 i think, 1400 depending on how quickly my post count rises! :D

Problly because if everyone was able to have avatars then the forum would really slow down and lag like crazy, some pics arent even showing up anymore on my computer due to some lagging.

Avatars arent that big of a deal anyway, just post and have fun. Dont use this as an excuse to spam either.

I think that it is more that we don\'t want to give the passerbyers avatars.  They want you to actually support the board before you get a pic.

Really I think we should give pics to who we think deserve them. It really helps remembering people when they have a pic.  Some people like Project86 and a few others have done well on the board, they just don\'t have the posts.

Yea, Vids reply makes sense. It\'s kinda like they want to make sure your here to stay and then u get a pic. kinda something to earn up to and then it might convince u to stick around longer neyways.

That problly has to do with why newbies arent liked to much if u think about it. Ppl want to know ur there to stay fer good or they wont feel confortable talking to u as much. Theres to many ppl that come into these boards post a few times then quit.

if everyone had an avatar right off the bat you\'d be complaining about how slow these forums are running...
