Egbert what happened to your avatar?

[Egbert]

Posting seems to do something to the avatar sizes sometimes?

And, after 18 years of having the same avatar, it vanished.

RIP the Civ2 settler.

Egbert you can select the avatar from your profile page by clicking on the button that pops up on your avatar there. The Settler is still available under "use a default avatar".

[Aeson]

Also the system still pu ts your Settler in in some contexts. Like Egbert

[ZEE]

I still don't see the comment button.

Maybe because I am using Chrome? Also clicking on the number of "likes" does not tell me who all "liked" it like Lori said.

[Egbert]

I can't "Like" my own poasts.

Egbert you can select the avatar from your profile page by clicking on the button that pops up on your avatar there. The Settler is still available under "use a default avatar".

Thanks, I found it but I am not intellectual enough to see how to save the change.

Aeson not sure if you are aware but OTF Thrades are showing up on the front page's "Latest Topics" section... so next time AAHZ PWNs MWHC's ass in a 20 page flamewar full of swear words bypassing the autofilter and about 130 hardcore Cherubim Death-Rap videos that I poasted, don't blame me when your advertisers freak out.

[Aeson]

Egbert it may be disallowing those avatars to be set. The continue button seems to be broken on that option

You can use the URL option to do it though, use this URL: https://apolyton.net/core/images/avatars/UNITS_01.gif

Oooooooh. Did something nice happen?

[Ben Kenobi]

Maybe a quote with 'scum and villainy" for the "is infamous around these parts"?

Can't see who is on from the main forum page anymore

Hey, I got a notification that was a flagged post. Am I on a list I probably shouldn't be on?

I could see serious complications arising from ignored posters being invisible. Suppose I post something about police violence, BK posts something about police violence being caused by black people "dressing slutty," and Ken replies to BK with something along the lines of "why don't you go bury your head in a bucket of human feces?" If I don't see BK's post at all, I think Ken has just reacted to something relatively innocuous with extreme hostility. We may have to adapt forum etiquette to avoid this unfortunate situation, preferably without involving quotes which are once again visible.

Indeed. My suggestion is to get everyone to agree to a standard response to BK posts as a signal to the rest of us. The "bucket of human feces" one sounds promising.

You forgot to append #triggered.
