Topic: Avatars

Stapes Paragon Member # 2 Member Rated:	posted November 05, 2002 20:09 Scotty, just now, I've noticed something. You have changed your avatar. In 2 different forums you have 2 different avatars. Why is that? For Example, in the StGFC forum, you have the dancing skeleton as an avatar, and in the forum updates you have a new Millie avatar.

Simple, that's a result of possibly two things:

1) For some strange reason, the forum cache is being crazy and keeping the Millie avatar on all of my posts that I made before you checked the forums again. I made some posts after I changed my avatar, so they should show the right one.
2) You're computer is being especially special, remembering the URL of the avatar that I was using but not the exact image. So, as a result, when you load the page, your computer searches for the Millie avatar that it expects to be there because it was there on your last visit, but rather than loading it from its cache, it strangely loads the image from the site.

Either way, no big deal. The avatar I'm supposed to have is the dancing skel.

Stapes this shouldn't be in Forum Updates. Scotty move this to Stupid Stuff Forum or something. Come on guys you are getting lazy. What is the point in havn't different forums when we don't even use them right? Plus wait till StGFC gets big, This prolly happen all the time so we have to prepare now...

Scotty the Great Paragon Member # 1 Member Rated:	posted November 09, 2002 09:03 Yeah, another reason we need a moderator But Ace, yeah, I see your point. This forum is meant only for updates on the forum (and a change of avatar hardly qualifies).

Stapes Paragon Member # 2 Member Rated:	posted November 09, 2002 18:06 The main reason I put that topic in the Forum Updates, is because I thought maybe there was something wrong with the forums. Therefore, I thought it would be senseful to post it in the Forum Updates.

Well he is sort of right Ace, we don't have a forum for problems, so this one is as close as we get. Maybe Scotty should think of renaming it 'Forum Issues' or something more general.

What is new is always evil, being that which wants to conquer and overthrow the old boundary markers and the old pieties; and only what is old is good. The good men are in all ages those who dig the old thoughts, digging deep and getting them to bear fruit - the farmers of the spirit. But eventually all land is depleted, and the ploughshare of evil must come again and again.
