        Well done if it has.......I asked above about whether the avatars would stay now and I was lead to believe otherwise.

        Spoiler:
        It was Skanky's fault

          the avatars may stay with more people cause the general load on the server has been reduced. the settings though to de-activate avatars on high load have stayed

            Ah I see. I did notice yesterday the avatars were more resilient, but they still could go at peak times.

            Sorry Skanky.

                        Yeah well he was pretty unclear.

                        /me is happy to shift fault on to a natural scapegoat.

                          In the FAQ it says that custom avatars are allowed after 500 posts yet i've seen people with less than that get one. Why is it???

                            When avatars were originally introduced, the rule was 500 posts or 1 year of being here. People who were here 1 year but didn't have many posts could get a custom avatar. When the rule was changed, they kept their custom avatar but couldn't switch to a different custom one.

                              Also, some people got to 500 posts and changed to a custom avatar. They then did something naughty enough to warrent a PCR (post count reduction) and hence had less than 500 posts whilst still retaining their custom avatar.

                                Both those reasons sound right, but I haven't seen anyone with a custom avatar and less than 500 posts anyway.
