Morons in the chatroom, Markos where are you? Tired of ads?

Disable font-sizes in the chatroom already, a lot of people think it's funny to put really stupid text in big bold letters and spam everyone trying to view the forums.

...please

You did it too Ras... You should be setting an example... not joining in.

It's a good suggestion. There is nothing worse then when you reload a forum page and half the page is taken up by some HUGE message in the chat room

I know that, Ming. But compared to what Prop did, that was mild as I did it once and it wasn't assaulting.

EDIT: Attachment deleted as it linked to the picture rather than showing the picture here.
EDIT2: It was from the photoshop thread, with this version done by hexagonian.

There is always some 'children' who will try and abuse anything if someone doesn't keep an eye on them. I have come across a bulletin board which is completely unmoderated, and it is a complete farce. Ban 'em, and ban 'em hard!
