too many banners and flip all to say......
 

anyone else notice this site is gettinga bit ott with banners and flashy gif avatars? i seem to spend more time scrolling round here than reading lately and pages are taking longer to load. i thought there was a limit on the number of banners people can have? some of them take up 3/4 of a screen and people say one sentence every three or four replies......my poor mousewheel.

Dont have a go at me, sure its all very pretty, but its like a capuccinno thats all froth......

Usually the really big banners get picked up my mods and changed.

think the mods are the worst culprits lol

oh quelle surprise! someone has negged me for saying this...... come on you spineless sh1te own up......

I dunno, but I ahve to use my banner .. to show all these people who to vote for =)

I don't mind banners but when people put like 3 or 4 banners on its i agree a bit ott. and yeah 2 banners are the max i think easy.

theres nothing wrong with that kind of bannerage superstar, straight to the point and a good size. deffo not a cpu killer.

i dont really mind the more the merrier:thumbs::thumbs::thumbs::thumbs::thumbs::th umbs:

I don't like the very wide-banners that widen the thread page. Apart from that, I am not too bothered.

There is a limit to how big, amount and the lines of text you can have

but your not the only one who has noticed that there are loads of them around.

I have turned them off because even though I am on a fast connection broadband it still was taking ages to load some pages and I got fed up.

Check your karma now matey :hug:

I usually have 1 but I put up the evict Nicky one this week

I only have 1 banner as i mostly have text if I have too much text just say and ill remove some

I don't really mind provided it's within TiBB guidelines.

I like seeing what banners people have, I don't really go in the BB8 section, seeing as there are some very childish people in there, so I really just post in graphics - which seems appropriate.

They add a bit of colour to the board.

And (most of the time) they look nice - they make the board look... um... prettier!

it just seems a bit much when a cpu hits 100% use in a forum, Ive found a way round it now and ive installed firefox plug in "ad-block" so i can magic away those banners and gumph that slow my old pc down or just get on my tits.
Im building myself a better pc to, just ordered a decent graphics card this morning and fitted a dual core athlon 64 in a new mobo yesterday. thing is older computers really struggle with this site lately, its as bad as ebay.

Go to control panel, and edit profile and you will find an option to turn off signature viewing easypeasy.

For you, no banners or Avatar!

ta stropz, never knew that. :)

Glad to be of assistance muh dear.. :D

cor thats loads better now, your an angel! i think this computer has a one way ticket to the tip when ive built my new one. hehe

Hey! Lol :laugh2:

Oh lovely so again it is the Mods who are to blame for the demise of the world as we know it!

There are guidelines about the amount of banners etc and I think you will find all of the Mods are within those guidelines

oh gawd......talk about upsettin the gaffer......hehe
