the b&s feedback is locked? I understand that its basically obviated by the rep system we have, but I was just in an awkward position with a member who basically used me as leverage to bid with another member over a shirt.

I for one have turned both avatars and signatures off. Too many shitty images and meaningless drivel. (Not that I'm namin' names or nothin'.)

However, they seem to mean a great deal to a lot of people, so, we represent your interests.

So why exactly did we get these generic avatars in the first place? Though I was irritated that I received one and can't get rid of it, it doesn't give me sleepless nights. So no biggy. But if you can, I'd like to see them done with eventually. I am however curious as to why they were enabled since the changeover (if my initial question seemed too testy).

Edit - It looks like J answered my question.

Also, for some reason though I've checked 'yes' for "Hide user avatars" in "Preferences", I still see user avatars next to their posts. What's that about?

Its been a bit, man. How have you been?


Not bad, just busy with IRL stuff, and honestly, a bit burned out by some of the backchannel semi-forum-related conversation. I'm trying to catch up and get back in the swing of things as I can.

I'm seeing a strange Range Rover ad embedded behind the forum graphic when I'm logged out.  You can't really see it because it's obscured by the whole interface, but I saw a strange night sky image in the background so I clicked through to "View Background Image" and it's an ad splash image.  It goes away when logging in. I feel like I understand the concept, but the "ad" isn't actually visible because it's obstructed by 90% of the forum graphics.  What is the purpose?

I have noticed the same in the past few days and wondered that as well.

It's subliminal messaging. You'll want to sell your body for a Range Rover in a few days. Not buying, sorry.

What's with these broads posting in General Chat? I didn't even click on it but it seems fishy. Underwater pun not intended.
