Fast Eddie doesn't want us posting more than one avatar at a time

If this is to cut server load, I see one very important flaw:

Instead of loading a few pics, won't people repeatedly be loading all those 100+ galleries?

    Or you could just post your boring Pony avatars in links with nice titles? That way the server only loads ones people click on and 20+ people won't be loading every avatar on the thread at once?

    Unless this is about a thread that isn't Avatars.
  • OOOooooOoOoOOoo, I'm a ghoOooOooOOOost!
    Is that just in the Avatars thread, or in general?
  • I think it's really only in Avatars, since that's the only thread where people regularly embed lots of images in a single post.  But I assume if that happened in other threads he would not want you doing it there either.
  • If you must eat a phoenix, boil it, do not roast it. This only encourages their mischievous habits.
    It's in Avatars.

    You guys can't really complain. Bobby came in there a while ago and stated that Eddie didn't really lik you guys posting too many at once.

    ^^^^I suppose that works too, though it's still problematic when people are loading their ENORMOUS galleries.

    People like me, for instance. Nearly 1000 images in one go HAS to be worse than a person embedding ten avatars and people loading them a few times.

  • OOOooooOoOoOOoo, I'm a ghoOooOooOOOost!
    ^^I'm really just concerned about KHSWO. And I can't really ask Eddie if it's okay there because I get the strange feeling it would mysteriously vanish.

    Are you only allowed to complain about things that are unexpected?

    ^ Yeah, I know...
  • ☭Unstoppable Sex Goddess☭
    Say 3 people upload 3 avatars they acquired and post the images on the thread.

    That's 9 avatars to load every time somebody opens that thread, think of how many people regularly look at that thread.

    I suppose so, but it's still gotta be bad when someone loads their huge gallery. In any case, I've PMed the Fast One for details.

    I don't think KHSWO is held up to the same standards as th Avatar thread.

    There are less viewers, for one. And nobody there, as far as I am aware, has ever posted like, 50 avatars at once.
  • You can change. You can.
    Evilneko asked for you people anyway. Madrugada says it's OK

    The problem is when you link more than one avatar. At least, Eddie defined galleries as that.
  • ~♥YES♥~! I *AM* a ~♥cupcake♥~! ^_^
    I've saved my gallery in cache form, at least, so I shouldn't put too much of a burden anymore.
  • OOOooooOoOoOOoo, I'm a ghoOooOooOOOost!
    Do you know if Evilneko asked by PMing Madrugada, or by using the holler button? Because last time someone hollered a KHSAS-related thread, a mod showed up and resolved the issue, then the thread vanished overnight for no apparent reason.
  • ~♥YES♥~! I *AM* a ~♥cupcake♥~! ^_^
    No, I don't. I pmed Eddie about the rule, and he gave me a short response directing me back to the avatar thread for answers.
  • ^^ Posting in the Avatars thread.
  • OOOooooOoOoOOoo, I'm a ghoOooOooOOOost!
    ^Oh. Well, in that case, I should probably be freaking out quite a bit less.

    Only the people who actually want to see them. I know that I rarely feel the need to examine someone's new batch of fifty ponies.
  • You can change. You can.
    Also, between Parable, Balmung, TMA and many others there could be more than just a "few pics" in a page...

    I can't understand why he hasn't limited avatar gallery size yet.
  • ☭Unstoppable Sex Goddess☭
    Hopefully he does. Most of the people on that site use none of the avatars they collect anyway (Parable).

    I don't understand why people can't just collect avatars by saving images to their own computer.  Far easier than uploading them or sharing them IMO.

    I would also gladly take a limit of 50 or 100 avatars per person to get strikethrough reinstated.
  • OOOooooOoOoOOoo, I'm a ghoOooOooOOOost!
    When I first started using the forum, I think I started a thread somewhere to ask what the avatar limit was since I just figured there had to be one.

    I wonder if there is an auto-ban system for Avatars, like a 4000 limit.

    Who has the largest avatar gallery anyway?
  • ~♥YES♥~! I *AM* a ~♥cupcake♥~! ^_^
    Lemurian, maybe.
  • We Played Some Open Chords and Rejoiced, For the Earth Had Circled the Sun Yet Another Year
    Tie between Balmung and Lemurian.

    In my case, ponibooru.
  • Creature - Florida Dragon Turtle Human
    It's a good thing I stopped playing avatar games with Balmung's gallery, despite the presence of FE characters.

    Balmung played too many fricking avatar games.
