i see some old accounts less than full member have avatar so from which year this site only allow for fullmember to use avatar

Same for anonymous users {Guest }

Avatar was initially disabled in late 2013 due to hack exploiting the avatar upload feature (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=306878.0). It was disabled for more than a year until theymos re-enabled (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1008863.0) that feature in 2015. That is when the Full Member+ rules for avatar started.

Yeah. This is the most accurate answer to that issue, I'm honestly confused about that kind of member rank user that have an avatar. Thanks for digging this very old thread. Kudos

thanks is this mean if i have account before 2013 can have avatar before full member ?

What about Guest posts ?  

No, only if you enabled an avatar on a normal member  / junior member account before 2013, if you have a > Full member account right now without an avatar, i don't think you will be able to add an avatar..

You can't change or upload it anymore now.


About guest posts, I  think they disabled these kinds of accounts somewhere down the road.

If avatar was added before 2013, you still can have it. But you can't replace it to another avatar. And if you have jr member or member account registered before 2013 and it's without avatar, you will not able to add avatar before reaching full member rank.
