SLR bought his license 10 minutes after complaining about his avatar... and then updated his avatar.... SO, why would vb.org have to comply to SLR-like users who will anyway buy their license to use the site?

SLR didn't want unlicensed members to be treated like 2nd class citizens anymore. I think we should be sympathetic towards his feelings.

As SLR stated, "Its unfair that unlicensed users have access to nothing, at least give them an avatar, where then will they have any dignity."

He just wants unlicensed members to get the respect and dignity they deserve.

If all it takes is an Avatar to do that, then... why not?

Sorry, but no permissions are going to be changed. :)

No wonder I've been getting no respect around here! :mad:

*goes off to catch oneself an avatar*

Hey Opserty, here's one avatar i found to have your name on it: http://i47.vbox7.com/a/opserty_abd766fc_1.jpg

Awwwh...

*adopts avatar*

I think it will be an excellent disguise, whilst I prepare my plans for a takeover. Muhahah! :D

Hello.

/

To you. I had my licence for a long time now, and I said originally I was not showing up as licensed and that are non licence members here not allowed avatars, three minutes after my post vB.com updated the API and vB.org recognised I was a member and enabled the avatar upload form. So not 10 minutes.

Are you being sarcastic?

All members should have all privallages on here except source code, and downloading modifications. The avatar feature is a standard feature on loads of BBs and gives user his alias, online identity.

You know, if you are not happy with the permissions given, you can always try to start a similar site and bring 25000 active members to be managed peacefully with 10 volunteers... you would see why there are restrictions...

the problem with most suggestions made about vb.org is that they can be easily applied to a small forum of 100 members... not with the size of this site. because usually, the persons who are suggesting have no idea how can be a mega-big forum.

SLR722 07-16-2008 06:55 PM

Good point. But you assume many things. New members may have forums with over a million posts.

Stop posting here now.
