optio should not be default. i didnt even know i had it turned on. you should have to turn it on if you want it. if you are a whiney puss, you should have to click it. new users arent going to know they have the option. just because one guy complained.... default should be uncensored.

As I've mentioned before, if adult avatars are on by default then we will have to begin enforcing the R-rated policy again. Personally I think this is a better solution.

A PM about this change would have been nice, I had no idea

Sorry, it was discussed pretty extensively in this forum when it went into effect. See these threads:
http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/6059893 http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/6060645
I guess a PM wouldn't have hurt, I just don't want to spam people.

you know what would be very helpful would be an option to block all .gif avatars.
a lot of them mess the page up for me.

Sorry but I don't see that as being a very useful option. I'd either disable avatars completely, or figure out why they mess up your browser and fix it.

Har har har...
Work policy: "You can discuss illegal drugs online and surf magic mushroom sites all day on the job, but you better damn well not let me catch you with any R-rated nudity on your screen!"
I want to work where you're at!
So I take it that since adult avatars are censored by default that we're now allowed to use the most hardcore XXX avatars that we can find?

that's a pretty entertaining scene you have going on there in your avatar, some southpark episode i never saw with a fat spotty girl diarrhoeaing in a plate brought to her by an admirer, while she carries on surfing the web. good job
