Lmao, the name will still be shown. Anyways, disabling signatures and avatars will make the page load faster (u can disable em in user cp)...but it won't help decrease the serverload cuz serverload is all about how many ppl are on the site at the same time.

I agree with the disabling of avatars and sigs btw... Waste of space.

of course, all you say is woof. with a little cat, doesn't matter in that case, but i can't recognize keystorm if he hasn't got his avatar =/
it's like disabling fonts on msn

Wtf are you talking about? Most avatars (well, most of the most-posting members, I think) are stored outside the server, so they don't waste its resources .
But I agree that members should be forced to use extern avatars. Even someone really kind could store the default ones.

Yes, but then forcing external avatars would mean that the originality would go down the drain. Also, people would try to upload avatars more. I think that code optimizations would be the real key, if there are any that could be done.

Yeah, but it IS related. The same setting is used...

The disableing of signatures is something I could put up with.

Signatures are really just pretty pointless anyway. But Avatars help recognize people abit in my opinion.

You will only receive that notification 6 minutes after you last visited and there may be more posts inbetween that time.

That was the misleading post
