Nephilim7 107 Posted September 28, 2011 Report Share Posted September 28, 2011 HELP! I had my profile set to turn off user avatar display. I access this sight at work, and many user avatars are NSFW. Is the option still around? I sure would like to use it. Thanks a lot! FIRST POST!!! I am just about to take the leap and get a Saiga 12. Thanks for all of the great info! You guys know your stuff.

chevyman097 2,579 Posted September 29, 2011 Report Share Posted September 29, 2011 I did too and asked in another thread. Id love to know if you can still do this too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
22_Shooter 1,560 Posted September 29, 2011 Report Share Posted September 29, 2011 I can't find the option either. All I can see even remotely close is the option to block all signatures. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DrThunder88 912 Posted September 29, 2011 Report Share Posted September 29, 2011 Depending on the browser you use, you might use an ad blocking add-on. I've filtered a few avatars in this way. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nephilim7 107 Posted September 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2011 *Chevyman - I'm sorry I didn't see your post before I posted mine. Is there a mod who could chime in on this? If I could turn off or hide the member avatars and "Recent Gallery Images" would allow me to use the site more freely, and it seems at least a few are interested in this ability. Thanks very much!!! BTW, I dig the new look. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chevyman097 2,579 Posted September 30, 2011 Report Share Posted September 30, 2011 Not a problem nephilium. I was more or less just thinking out loud. We are more likely to get answers in this thread im sure. It really isnt a huge deal to me, but I do browse at work sometimes and to say the least some avatars are nsfw. lol But i pretty much stay away from subforums and topics i know are best suited for home.

gunfun 3,931 Posted September 30, 2011 Report Share Posted September 30, 2011 I'm in the same boat, only I just don't want to have to see the sleaze. Also it is a lot easier to respect a forum member's post if I don't have to see his fetishes. (I feel the same way about smilies too.) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kresk 10,063 Posted October 1, 2011 Report Share Posted October 1, 2011 I don't see it under personal options, but maybe I'm looking in the wrong place. Shoot Max a PM as he's the forum's software guru. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Nailbomb 10,221 Posted October 2, 2011 Report Share Posted October 2, 2011 I'm in the same boat, only I just don't want to have to see the sleaze. Also it is a lot easier to respect a forum member's post if I don't have to see his fetishes. (I feel the same way about smilies too.) this statement makes me feel akward. I have the best smileys on the forum. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gunfun 3,931 Posted October 2, 2011 Report Share Posted October 2, 2011 Nailbomb- I don't know about your smilies, but I have no problem with your pictures. Aren't you an Xray tech or something like that? Anyway, the point is that this is a forum about certain guns. if people want to look at boobies on the interwebs, there are a lot of other options. I don't try to nag people, but I used to be able to turn it off. Even if you think having a moral objection is absurd, surely you guys can agree that some people have no taste, and it would be nice to be able to block their images and still see what text they post. Remember those huge repulsive pics that Glockmongler used to post in his sig that filled the whole thread with exagerated butt? They could kill the enjoyment of a whole thread. It's like every time you kiss your girlfreind you get a mental image of Rosane Barr in a bikini on a trampoline. No one should have to suffer through that. Anyway, some people have cool or clever avatars, and what I really want to do is just block the tasteless few. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nephilim7 107 Posted October 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2011 I agree with GunFun on this one. I would settle for a total block if that was all I could get. I am not a contributor though, so I don't really have much influence... Thanks for chiming in. I'll try to PM the mod mentioned earlier (perhaps others will too). Maybe the mods will smile on me and hear my plea! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
