What's the point if people can't see my obnoxious, animated avatar?! Ghavrel Send a noteboard - 16/07/2010 06:10:03 PM
Apparently the concept that not having silly distractions can aid actual interaction is disputed.
"We feel safe when we read what we recognise, what does not challenge our way of thinking.... a steady acceptance of pre-arranged patterns leads to the inability to question what we are told."

While hosting can be had that cheap, I certainly wouldn't want to use it. Nebhead - 13/07/2010 12:04:55 AM 1459 Views
You want to charge people for functionality every other forum on the web gives them for free? Werthead - 14/07/2010 08:47:32 PM 1522 Views
It is exactly the same stuff Mike asked money for Camilla - 14/07/2010 09:00:55 PM 1182 Views

The messageboards are perfectly functional without a premium account. Nebhead - 14/07/2010 09:17:43 PM 1170 Views
I see it as a way of giving people something back for donations. Rebekah - 14/07/2010 10:09:08 PM 1443 Views
He does have a point when it comes to hyperlinks. lord-of-shadow - 15/07/2010 06:52:41 PM 1157 Views
There are other reasons why I don't want links in posts Nebhead - 15/07/2010 08:18:53 PM 1194 Views
Why is that? lord-of-shadow - 15/07/2010 09:14:52 PM 1366 Views

I have to agree with you here Ryan - 16/07/2010 06:55:43 AM 1164 Views
Advertising makes a site look like shit. Ghavrel - 16/07/2010 08:28:00 AM 1074 Views
Only if you choose to let it. Werthead - 16/07/2010 12:17:47 PM 1398 Views
This is just the BBforum argument rehashed. Ghavrel - 16/07/2010 06:07:20 PM 1301 Views
But those are the very things being introduced by the premium accounts. Werthead - 17/07/2010 12:44:05 PM 1392 Views

Good lord Ghavrel, you're just posting straw men. Don't put words in people's mouths. *NM* lord-of-shadow - 16/07/2010 07:08:20 PM 607 Views
No, I'm mocking your arguments because they are dumb. Difference! :p *NM* Ghavrel - 17/07/2010 02:21:43 AM 576 Views
That at least is not a problem, as the premium accounts are introducing them to the site. Werthead - 17/07/2010 12:46:33 PM 1378 Views
They aren't displayed, so I don't mind. But what is "far worse" than other SFF forums? *NM* Ghavrel - 17/07/2010 10:08:47 PM 603 Views
