Senority should matter. People here 4 or more years have really made Apolyton part of their lives, and thus should be rewarded.

Alternatively, you could just get Apolyton Plus, and get a custom avatar regardless of how many posts you've got.

Not always... how about if one created a login at the beginning of this site's life... forgot all about it, and didn't return until now?



And what's the point of one with almost no posts have an avatar? Nobody sees his posts anyway...

IIRC, originally, after the switch to vBulletin, it was 1000 for a custom avatar. Some time after that, it became either 500 or a year. When it became 500, I dunno.

Yup -- and because of this, there are still warlords and chieftains with a custom avatar around.

Oh, and exception for SC

That's right, and IIRC not a long time passed after Markos lowered it to 500 posts.
