Where’s the page for turning them on and off? I’ve just been assigned the next one, so I was given that rather than not having one at all. I used to find the page via the pinned faqs, iirc...

If you're disappointed you in how disappointing his post wasn't, was his post ever not disappointing in the first place?

I don't think he said he was disappointed in the post, he was mentally preparing himself to be disappointed, so yes in fact the OPs post was not disappointing ;)

Um, I get those two confused as well. :(

Fun fact: In Italy, they try to get the same person to dub the voice for a given actor from movie to movie. So for example, Al Pacino was dubbed by the same actor for all of his movies. They did the same with Robert de Niro. The problem? It was the same guy and when Heat came out with both of them in it...

Where do you get this crap? Did you ever think to fact check that nugget of information?

Ferruccio Amendola dubbed Robert De Niro and Giancarlo Giannini dubbed Al Pacino in Heat.

I don't know whether his fact is true or not, but I should point out that you're not necessarily contradicting him. He didn't state how they solved the dilemma when it came to heat... but perhaps one of those two voice actors is the person he's referring to and did indeed voice both of those US actors for all their movies prior to heat being made.

If he's wrong and you want to contradict him then you need to point out that they were voiced by different actors prior to heat.

Thanks. That just hides them all, right? I’d rather see avatars but not have one myself. I used to be able to do that. Not sure if it’s now possible.

That's correct. It's not possible now.. unfortunately it's a global on/off option.

IIRC the dev site that we tested prior to launch didn't have this as an option, it was added by our admin. If you post in the new forum bug thread it may be possible to get the feature added.
 
ah didn't realise the bug thread was still being looked at, I pointed out an issue re: embedded videos I think got missed
 
What's with the avatar haters? I'm more or less ambivalent regarding them but I admit it's nice to get a new one as your post count rises. Just a bit of harmless fun and I think the forum would look a little sterile without them.

I don't mind the way they change with post count but how about being able to select a female progression path? I'm not well up on gangster movies, but you could work your way up through Veronica Lake, Lauren Bacall, Faye Dunaway, Uma Thurman and so forth... Would be nice.

Would be nice too [/bloke]

I don't hate them but they mean nothing to me and are not representative of me so 'avatar' seems a stretch. I agree it's not harmless; perhaps 'redundant' is more accurate.

e: just checked and I can't see anyones avatars, so as hoped for :)
 
must admit i never got the whole gangster theme here, i'd've thought something more speed/computer-oriented would have been more appropriate.
don't get how the levels work either, VInce and FnG have the same pic, but different post counts and different ranks.

That's cause FNG is a 'moderator'. Apparently. He's special. :p
