Markos, I'm serious now Avatar Enlargement: We've got the solution

The incessent smilies and avatars and images are a real tunrnoff. They make it very distracting to read the page.

Perhaps you went a little too far. I've been waiting to see if it would grow on me, like when you changed the color scheme. But I'm getting more turned off. Also seems like your traffic has dropped.

You can turn off the avatars?

And smilies are no more rampant now than they were before...

Full PM-box? Change here!

Exactly why I use light style. And, when I see someone overusing smilies (Saddam, usually), I just edit his post.

I have found that SMAC PBEM forums tend to be quite easy going in terms of moderation anyway, and if people occassionally put a joke in whilst posting their turn passed on, so be it. My job around there on CGN seems to be more maintenance (closing and opening new PBEM threads when past 150, tracking tournament games down if stalled, etc) rather than disciplining other posters. I just do my task and I find that there has never been any reason to take a serious moderation decision (I have only ever issued one warning for flaming in the best part of a year). Go easy buddy
