[QUOTE=Yogkog;52934078]What actually is the game plan on avatar sizes? I haven't been keeping up and I can't find anything about it anywhere[/QUOTE] max size of 150X300, you use your coins to slowly increase your avatar from its starting limit of i think 64x64

Fight the power Who needs big avatars

The intent is to provide posters with a sense of pride and accomplishment for unlocking larger avatars.

Has anyone calculated how many coins you need to get the old gold avatar size back on newpunch?

[QUOTE=darth-veger;52934626]Has anyone calculated how many coins you need to get the old gold avatar size back on newpunch?[/QUOTE] 13712 [editline]30th November 2017[/editline] Wait 9472, forgot it's 160 not 180 high. [editline]30th November 2017[/editline] Assuming coin costs are linear which they probably aren't.

[QUOTE=Oicani Gonzales;52934650]every new pixel costs 2 more coins than the previous one[/QUOTE] That's what I did in excel yes.

Garry said somewhere back that it's not linear all the way up, it probably caps out at some number of coins per pixel or something

[QUOTE=Zeb Brown;52933273]I'm honestly really excited for the swap to the new forums, facepunch has been pretty stale, I like seeing Garry invested in this community also.[/QUOTE] Its crazy how busy [del]Gar-[/del] garry gets tbh dude is active at what he likes to do thats for sure

Has anyone called dibs on a Facepunch's choice video game awards for this year? If no one has I was thinking i'd do it. Take nominations from the 1st, votes from the 15th to the 20th.

Did oify get removed?

That post formatting is something that I have sorely missed from my early years on Facepunch. Cannot remember when it was switched over, but I remember all sorts of stuff like align center being available back in 09' ~ 11' and then suddenly going away outta no where.

[QUOTE=garry;52934825]Bloggy Blog: [URL]https://forum.facepunch.com/blog/update-1/[/URL][/QUOTE] Please allow bounties in normal posts, would be great for threads like Avatar Requests and similar.

[QUOTE=Kiwi;52929079]Literally yesterday. I guess I had an old avatar cache. Been getting that a little since CF protection kicked in. And MODCP timing out a lot more often. [/QUOTE] Is there a reason CF DDoS protection is on super-high all the time? Could it not be lowered most of the time? [editline]30th November 2017[/editline] [QUOTE=garry;52934825]Bloggy Blog: [url]https://forum.facepunch.com/blog/update-1/[/url][/QUOTE] Woah, good shit. Think I'm still gonna make a userscript for some stuff (moving ratings back out of the menu and stuff) but that's personal preference really, the new features are cool AF.

forum wouldn't last 5 minutes without cf tbh lmao

facepunch used to go down for extended periods every week or two before cloudflare came around

[QUOTE=Kiwi;52935590]If the forums keeps on being being hit by mad rust kiddies the old girl won’t live long enough for 2018 to happen.[/QUOTE] [QUOTE=NightmareX91;52935606]forum wouldn't last 5 minutes without cf tbh lmao[/QUOTE] [QUOTE=butre;52935644]facepunch used to go down for extended periods every week or two before cloudflare came around[/QUOTE] I'm not suggesting [i]removing it[/i], that'd most likely skyrocket hosting costs. But CF offers variable security levels, there's no need to have it on high/highest when not being DDoS'd. Especially since CF will automatically soak DDoS attacks even on the lowest security settings, and will automatically increase security setting to higher if needed.

[QUOTE=garry;52934825]Bloggy Blog: [url]https://forum.facepunch.com/blog/update-1/[/url][/QUOTE] I know I've been a bit of a pain in the ass over the various versions of this thread but I just gotta say garry i really appreciate you continuing to work on and improve the Facepunch forums on top of all the other stuff you do :joy:

Question. Is it okay to "reserve" posts in a thread I make? I want to make a rather lengthy mapping tutorial and I'd like to split it up into 3 posts or so, so its easier to follow. Also if so, how do I avoid automerge. It seems to be completely random whether my posts are merged or not.

[QUOTE=laserpanda;52935701]Also if so, how do I avoid automerge. It seems to be completely random whether my posts are merged or not.[/QUOTE] I think after your first post is 2 hours old your next post won't get automerged

Hey mods, is it worth having a discussion about things like butre's avatar? I was trying to think of a way to voice my discomfort in an argument for adding to the av restrictions, but i realized, it's just me being uncomfortable about it and that doesn't warrant moderation. Given that it's been up for ages, I'm wondering if you guys have already talked about it and whether or not it'd be a good idea to talk about it.

OP formatting is great to finally have return.

Is there a lock reason yet? Cause I can't seem to find it and one of my threads was locked without explanation.
