But those are the very things being introduced by the premium accounts. Werthead Send a noteboard - 17/07/2010 12:44:05 PM
You might consider that there are people who are tired of image signatures 500 pixels deep and avatars so large they crowd out actual content.


Yes, that is why most SFF forums ban image signatures altogether and keep avatars to a very small size.

Of course, the new premium accounts are bringing in image signatures and allow avatars three times the size of those on Westeros, SFFWorld and others, which you must therefore agree is a bad idea?

While hosting can be had that cheap, I certainly wouldn't want to use it. Nebhead - 13/07/2010 12:04:55 AM 1770 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 1815 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 791 Views
No, I'm mocking your arguments because they are dumb. Difference! :p *NM* Ghavrel - 17/07/2010 02:21:43 AM 782 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 1662 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 782 Views
