It doesn't serve much of a purpose on a forum intended for research and discussion either. But as long as avatar images are allowed, I think animated GIFs should be allowed. If you would like to remove animated GIFs from your view only though, https://i.imgur.com/rF4Qg.jpg Also, thank you for making me smile since I know you're talking about me. ;D Title: Re: We need a "No animated gif" policy...

Post by: ThomasV on March 07, 2012, 10:15:55 AM please do so! this will just turn more users against animated avatars...
btw, is it offtopic to mention that I do not like ad hominem attacks? you might not like Bruce Wagner, it is not a reason to attack him that way. Title: Re: We need a "No animated gif" policy... Post by: BadBear on March 07, 2012, 02:48:12 PM There are plenty of ways for you to block the images yourself, why should it be forced on everyone?
