Default How Many points do I Need

Trying to set up an old avatar I have used for a few years now, Site says I cannot use an animated avatar, But I have notice other users are using similar.
File size is well within spec (11.2 kb). Do I need to accumilate points. If so How many and do you ahve a B.O.G.O.f offer????

I seem to remember a post recently that said that animated avatars would no longer be allowed but that people who already had them could keep them.

JDR will correct me if I am wrong in which case, my apologies.

Beachcomber is right, since the upgrade to try and help the loading of the site for people with slow internet access animated avatars would be limited to those that already had them.
Saying that, if you want one you could always become a Premium member for a small charge and help the running costs of one of the best websites ever and receive extras as listed HERE. ;-)

The cost of membership depends on what you want to pay in Dollars, quids, or €`s.
The cost of banning depends on the bribe ;-)

in £ of course i understand the money .. and on the ban ?

What if i was typing a post and said something like , i think Englebert Humperdink knew how to sing and was better than Max Bygraves !! Then some poster butted in and said NO WAY which then caused me to realitate by saying something like . YEA is so !!! and they said Does NOT !! This then escalated into a major row bringing in such personal things as , who is the best interior decorator and stuff ? Which then resulted in Sue having to step in and BAN one of us ?

If i was banned is the money reimbursed ?

Surely a ban would be immaterial anyway because people who talk in this way get sectioned.

How do you get away with swearing on here!!!

Max Bygraves, Engel (cannot type the rest of his name) must be down as swear words in the OED by now sure.
