Text Only Threads Suffering from ads?

Is it another option implemented only when there is a lot of strain on the server?

Can we get an option that will allow us to always use this mode?

I'm also curious about this. I guess it would be similar to the page we get when we choose the "show a printable version" option in a thread.

My guess is that attached images show up as a link... maybe the buttons are replaced with text too. /edit - oh. Never mind...

Ah hell. It's still probably Skanky's fault.

If that option was available to members it might be useful for people with slow dial-up connections, although they'd have to turn signatures off, of course.

Who exactly is that in your avatar anyway? I keep thinking it's Calista Flockhart, but surely no-one would have her as their avatar.

Would they?

'cos she's just so darn nice to look at!

maybe you should just put "My avatar is Ashley Judd" in your location field or sig line, or something?

I hope this is only a temporial measure, the text only versions are more difficuilt to read and if I am uni I don't want to log in, because I don't have the time to read all the threads I want to read. But once I was logged in, after a certain time all the threads are marked as read even if I still wanted to read some of them.

As has been stated, this and similar measures that have been implemented in recent days to better manage the recent above-average server load.

On an ongoing basis, whether there is a server-load issue or not, we are working to best balance functionality and convenience at the same time, which tend to clash with one another. We thank you for your continued patience and understanding.

Don't worry about it Dan, I don't think anybody really minds all that terribly much. It's better than not being able to access it all, and we know you're not screwing with us on purpose or anything.
