What's the story on Avatars and Signatures?

it's because of the stated user options of showing or not showing signatures or avatars. because someone doesn't explore the tools before them (ignorance) doesn't mean that they should be catered to. if those options were not available to users then there'd be a better debate that could initiate some course of action by the wonderful folks that run this project.

Read my OP. I am not ignorant of the options available to me. Thanks for chiming in.

then you have a weak ground to debate from and come off as whining which is like blood in shark infested waters here.

I thought I'd point this out in a timely fashion: There are no sharks here. Nothing remotely resembling a shark. Not even in the most generous metaphoric sense.

Can anyone name a harmless (and probably morbidly obese) schooling fish that neglects a meaningful fish life in favor of a passive life of lethargy hiding in some cranny while desperately trying to impress other fish who have also failed at fish life?

So yeah, OP's whining is like some fluid (nothing as manly as blood) in waters infested by those kinds of fish.

He better hope its not waffle sauce or it'll be a frenzy.

I can't believe that a community of what I imagine consists mainly of adult males would react this childishly to a legitimate concern. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't believe this server is exclusive to adult males and neither are the forums. Though this certainly isn't a game that's likely to attract many modern teenagers, or 25-32 year old women it's still a possibility. The women I don't concern myself with, sorry ladies but nerdy shit is generally male-dominated. However the fact that minors can and probably do legally register and view these forums (like I said probably not many, but I guarantee a few have heard of a free classic mmorpg and thought to try it out), and I feel like this could probably have legal ramifications. It's really something mods should think about.

But seriously, for all of you to claim that this main is a whiny this or that to come here and be so aggressive and bitchy about the subject matter is just silly. You sound like 15 year old girls reacting to their father saying they're not allowed to go see <insert boy band here>

Truth be told the thread should have ended at "disable sigs and avatars"
and to you piss poor trolls, shame on you.
