[QUOTE=Zee Captain;37225681]I thought mod's didn't have avatar limits as long if their avatars ain't insanely huge or annoying.[/QUOTE] no they have size limits

[QUOTE=LordCrypto;37225712]no they have size limits[/QUOTE] [QUOTE=Swebonny;37148286]125 by 500 pixels, that's our max.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=LordCrypto;37225627]exploiting forum is 1 month[/QUOTE] Jessecar got a permaban for a forum exploit.

Well it was neat to see it was possible. If this all turns out well I'll put it back :> [editline]14th August 2012[/editline] Although tbh why ban them when it's easier just to remove the avatar, honestly. That should be enough warning.

[QUOTE=Blazyd;37225728]Jessecar got a permaban for a forum exploit.[/QUOTE] that was i'm a dumb.... for something more along the lines of the cloudflare caching exploit, its a month

[QUOTE=Spencer Sharkey;37225741] Although tbh why ban them when it's easier just to remove the avatar, honestly. That should be enough warning.[/QUOTE] But other people don't know when someone's avatar is removed. It's just better to ban them, makes more of an impact.

[QUOTE=Spencer Sharkey;37225741]tbh why ban them when it's easier just to remove the avatar[/QUOTE] Because i can't, and even if I could, it's not in the slightest easier to remove the avatar instead of banning them. and bans are always our warning for shit, especially things as obvious as "don't exploit the forums".

[QUOTE=Blazyd;37225728]Jessecar got a permaban for a forum exploit.[/QUOTE] Because it was a malicious exploit [editline]asd[/editline] it wasn't even an exploit, it was the script that let some guy take over a bunch accounts in session

[QUOTE=Spencer Sharkey;37225741] Although tbh why ban them when it's easier just to remove the avatar, honestly. That should be enough warning.[/QUOTE] your warning is that the upload page says the limit is 80x80. If you go above that you're breaking the rules, and are already aware that you're doing something wrong. If you expect any less you're an idiot.

[QUOTE=LordCrypto;37225627]exploiting forum is 1 month[/QUOTE] I've seen people get permabanned on the spot if they know all too well what they're doing (which is mostly every person who uses a forum exploit)

And I just heard back from garry the answer is: Permaban them. So yeah, good call those of you that listened to my not-so-subtle warnings throughout the thread to not do this shit. Forum avatar restrictions exist for a reason and we don't like forum exploits very much.

[QUOTE=postal;37226902]And I just heard back from garry[/QUOTE] Mind asking him if he could increase avatar sizes for golds or something? Would be neat.

[QUOTE=Daniellynet;37226917]Mind asking him if he could increase avatar sizes for golds or something? Would be neat.[/QUOTE] Or at least Boostar the mofo. Keeps the large avatars limited to an amount of users, since most golds haven't even bought titles.

Ouch. RIP

Wow that's what, the third time Chrisaster has been perma'd?

i think perm bans are largely unnecessary for this

Wow I wasn't expecting the bans to be perma, I thought Gold members get it alot easier than blues.

[QUOTE=Funion;37227117]i think perm bans are largely unnecessary for this[/QUOTE] They kinda knew it was coming

[QUOTE=Funion;37227117]i think perm bans are largely unnecessary for this[/QUOTE] Can't say we didn't try to warn everyone (like 10 times). Even though we didn't need to. Because exploiting the forums should obviously be a bad idea.

-missed the joke- [editline]49[/editline] How is [URL="http://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1205100"]this thread[/URL] still alive. Or is this the standards for fast threads

[QUOTE=postal;37227141]Can't say we didn't try to warn everyone (like 10 times). Even though we didn't need to. Because exploiting the forums should obviously be a bad idea.[/QUOTE] How were they exploiting avatars? I don't understand this.

[QUOTE=ROFLBURGER;37227146]Rest in peace in peace?[/QUOTE] That is the joke.

Went back and snipped my friend's avatar script out of my post, sucks for the perma'd users but postal warned them so really it's their fault

[QUOTE=digigamer17;37227153]How were they exploiting avatars? I don't understand this.[/QUOTE] editing the gif header so that they could upload pictures larger than 80x80

[QUOTE=digigamer17;37227153]How were they exploiting avatars? I don't understand this.[/QUOTE] By using an exploit with images to bypass the avatar size restrictions and give themselves whatever sized avatar they wanted (mostly fucking massive, yeah hooray for subtlety).

[QUOTE=postal;37227141]Can't say we didn't try to warn everyone (like 10 times). Even though we didn't need to. Because exploiting the forums should obviously be a bad idea.[/QUOTE] except it's a browser exploit, not a forum one.

[QUOTE=digigamer17;37227153]How were they exploiting avatars? I don't understand this.[/QUOTE] by editing image properties to upload avatars of any size, with only filesize as its limiting factor

[QUOTE=ROFLBURGER;37227146]Rest in peace in peace?[/QUOTE] Rest in pieces, in peace.
