Quote:Sure, I'm extremely biased because I think it's ridiculous that you can only fit one post per 1024x768 page. But I think it's more ridiculous that you can't see the incredible waste of space that you are arguing to keep.
Again, I see the "waste of space" point, but it's been like that from day 1 and I'm not about to change it because you think it would "make the board better" - I fail to see how that would make it any better, except maybe smaller in size on your precious monitor screen. You know what would make the board better? Relevant posting! Not posts that bitch about skulls and post counts. Your'e acting like these are all new oprions, yet they've been there all the time.
Quote:Again, I'm not asking you to change it at this point, I'm just asking why you think it should remain.
If you are just lazy and don't want to change everybody's status, or expose yourself as the lamer that you truly are because you don't know how to execute the changes, that's fine. Just admit it.
you're looking for it to be changed, don't twist it into something else - and I do have a good idea as to how it could be changed, but I think it would be a) difficult and b) quite simply not worth the time & effort to do anything about. It's a board setting - deal with it. As for statuses, if you have an issue with Jays, or Arpi, or whoever - PM them and ask them to contact myself or any other mod/admin, and we'll gladly clean it out. If they dont want to remove it, so be it - personally, I hope those who have them keep them (because I love to waste space)
Quote:If you really enjoy reading the same 10 people's overly long statuses, then say that. But, just answer the charge with something other than "nobody else is complaining". Because, at the risk of being repetitive, I'm not telling you to change it, I'm only trying to understand why you would argue against it.
Well, then I'll try not to be repetitve but I guess I'll have to when I say I wont put any restrictions on sig size, status size or anything else because that would imply rules which, again, I feel aren't needed - at least in this regard.
So again, your suggestions are noted - the post count, skulls, location, etc will stay - those are hard coded, and I prefer that not be touched because I want to waste the 10 pixels they take up - statuses will be amended upon request by whoever wants THEIRS "cleaned up". If thats not up to your liking, thats just too bad.
