Arreat Posted July 9, 2003 Share Posted July 9, 2003 so theres not gonna be a store which will mean no points, sig, CUSTOM TITLES ( meaning including those whom have over 100 posts) just plain old avatar and ??? wouldn't that degrade posts? Why not just enable sigs regardless of your points>? Or why not enable those features as your post count progresses?? Cause I spent alot of time here at these boards just wanting to get a sig pic.

<JOTD>Jedi Hunter Posted July 9, 2003 Share Posted July 9, 2003 I say it doesn't matter. I mean, you're not here because you love sig pictures. You're here because you love these boards. And whatever reasons why they choose to take them down (probably a size issue) I respect it. Though I will miss checking out the cool sig pics alot of you have.

Azrael Posted July 9, 2003 Share Posted July 9, 2003 I think sigs are still going to be around. And anyone with over 1000 posts has a custom title. It's pretty much gonna be the way it was, before "The Store™." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XERXES Posted July 9, 2003 Share Posted July 9, 2003 Originally posted by Arreat Cause I spent alot of time here at these boards just wanting to get a sig pic. so then you are saying ALL your posts were spam and rubbish because the only reason you posted is so that you could have a little picture under your posts that causes my computer to slow just a little bit on every load. To be honest, I would like to see the sig pics go. The pages would load a lot faster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arreat Posted July 9, 2003 Author Share Posted July 9, 2003 well not quite I came for a smaller reason -- eheh just to see my post counts with 4 digits. Y'know its fascinating how some people are amazed by such little things. (IE ME) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XERXES Posted July 9, 2003 Share Posted July 9, 2003 well actually to be honest im tired of seeing 500 million matrix pictures, im trying to read a thread and you see Neo flying across the screen with the green stuff everywhere and you loose the spot you were reading and your like WTF?!?! Or you see some image that could look cool but there is just way to many layers of different random graphics in it and it just hurts your head.

Lil Killa Posted July 9, 2003 Share Posted July 9, 2003 may I ask WHY they are taking away the store? and when will this happen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antilles_CL Posted July 9, 2003 Share Posted July 9, 2003 Originally posted by Lil_Killa may I ask WHY they are taking away the store? and when will this happen? The store i believe is being taken away because certain people ahve mis-used the system. As for when It will be removed...I have no idea...But i'm thinking sometime in the near future.

matt-- Posted July 9, 2003 Share Posted July 9, 2003 The point system is being removed for several reasons. It isn't generally accepted. It creates a lot of spam. It creates a hostile environment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
