[QUOTE=Marbalo;52678922]i dont really understand how some people need to have an avatar on a forum
remove avatars entirely tbh.[/QUOTE]
because theyre fun and fun is nice
[QUOTE=DOG-GY;52679169]are these words and also in english[/QUOTE]
It's understandable that you cannot comprehend my words.
Me, an intellectual, has studied the highest degree of avatar taste and tact.
As a blind man, every day when I want to log onto the Facepunch Forums I require the assistance of my brother Michael to help navigate the website. Michael takes the time out of his day to assist his older sibling in something he can no longer take pleasure in the way he used to: browsing an internet forum about video games. Every day, for hours on end, Michael reads me each individual post in a thread as well as the users behind them. He is a patient man and always repeats information when I request it of him and is able to provide accurate impersonations of what some 20-year-old white college student posting about some political issue they're absolutely clueless about.
Yesterday, that all changed. Michael was reading through the posts as normal, but his voice had a dejected tone to it, as if he were unhappy to be there at all. "Michael, what's wrong?" I inquired, hoping I was looking at him. "John... I can't do this anymore." he murmured sadly. I was taken aback by this statement. "Why, Michael!" I exclaimed in disbelief, "What makes you say that?"
"John, it's this man's avatar. I know you'll ask me to describe it to you, but i don't have the willpower to. I... I can't go on like this anymore, John. No more. I don't want to scroll down the page and see a scantily clad anime-style animal girl with big bouncing boobies juxtaposed to an awful, awful post about the current state of the United States economy and their undeniably genius plans to fix it." He sighed, and I heard a clattering, which I assumed was him standing up from the computer. "Goodbye, John. Think upon your actions."
He left shortly after, and in that moment I had never felt more alone. Please, Internet forum, I beseech you. Understand that your life choices affect other people's, and may even end up ruining them. I am currently dictating this to someone I found on Fiverr because I could not find anyone else. Thank you. End the post there please. No text after that. No, I said stop.
See guys, you complain about gigantic frog avatars, but the real damage came from your anime shit. Now a blind person has to pay $5 per post to talk to us.
Think before you post with your avatar.

As a forum, we need to stand out from the rest of the competition, so we need to go above and beyond arguing about avatars.
This is the future of online browsing - Custom post window wallpapers.

Shit I actually did that once with that exact image back in the day before avatars got their width cut off if they went past 125 pixels. Sadly it covered up the text on the post. Good times, truly a mystery why Garry disabled our ability to bypass avatar restrictions by editing avatars via modcp.

We should also allow custom post sound effects

[QUOTE=Jarokwa;52678907]i dont really understand how some people can look at porn/porn related things and think ''wowee that would make for a great avatar and not make me look like a creep at all''
worse than anime[/QUOTE]
Either they straight up don't give a fuck or it's just there to get a reaction out of people. I assume mostly the latter in most cases.
And on top of that the automatic reaction to "stop doing that" is "wow doing this is HILARIOUS i should do it more", you should've learned this by now. NSFW avatars are an incredibly overblown issue anyway.

I swear I've seen, for the past 10 years, these two posts with so many different variations to them, it's truly the never-ending FP discussion.

This reminds me of what SMWCentral has, custom HTML post boxes... which leads to terrible ideas.
[QUOTE=Trekintosh;52678694]TBF Reagy's current avatar is honestly too lewd and I had to adblock it. Normally I don't give a shit but that one was pretty out there.[/QUOTE]
Back in my day adblock didn't exist and there was someone who had a literal pair of tits for an avatar, and we scrolled fast and hoped our moms didn't see like [b]MEN[/b]

Not reliable, unfortunately. Look at the ISP, that's Vultr. They don't have accurate GeoIP.
I have 2 machines, one in LA, the other in Australia.
The LA one says it's in New Jersey and the AU one says it's in Atlanta, by the same GeoIP database as you're using.

Well the server name is FP_Miami so I assume this is somewhat accurate in this case.
Why not make a thread for this?

Just make it like a "real" forum and limit it to 3 posts per page :v:

someone on SA once made a userscript that added themes to users that played when you scrolled over their post. it was, well, hell.

I also think we should have a limited time wok shirt in various versions based on the different ratings.[/QUOTE]
Yeah, I have it archived somewhere. Will post once I return home.
So I decided to take a jaunt to labpunch a little while ago to see if it's gotten any better since I visited it months and months ago.

What the absolute fuck is this scaling? This is like Duplo sized padding. I didn't know Fisher Price was designing labpunch.

Just compare to the scaling of normal vanilla facepunch on the same phone with the same settings. Information density is much better and text is still perfectly readable.
I'm pretty sure labpunch is never coming. Garry just decided to throw something together real quick so he wouldn't have to deal with rust players anymore.

I just see people using annoying ear raping sounds to troll with
40 posts of something like [URL="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uufq_PFXbpA"]'HIS NAME IS JOHN CENA!' [/URL] would get annoying very fast

Nah, it's definitely still coming. The current version of the forums is based on vBulletin, which is super garbage.
