A CHALLENGE TO ALL OF YOU!!! - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

Liquor Dealer · 11-30-2003, 04:17 PM

Guess you've noticed that the board has a problem. It's slow and parts are missing. It sucks!!! I challenge each and every one of you to make it better. I'll start! Take off your avatar and all of the sig lines and let's free up a lot of what is slowing it down. Pay some money!!! Don't get carried away - we don't want what his face having enough excess cash to spend time in the South of France or whereever but it does cost money to run this thing. I'll take off my avatar and sig; Y'all do the same thing and it'll get better - you can always put them back when it's fixed.

redravin40 · 11-30-2003, 04:38 PM

Avatar is shut off.
Sorry but the sig stays, its just too important to me.

JadziaDax · 11-30-2003, 04:43 PM

Took my avatar down right after the server was moved... not a problem there.

But the signature stays... for donation purposes.

and thank you redravin

opentocomments · 11-30-2003, 04:50 PM

it cant hurt ive moved from an active role to a much more passive role so ill do what i can to help.

laconic1 · 11-30-2003, 05:06 PM

Took the avatar down, haven't had a sig in forever, also disabled viewing avatars, signatures and images. Hopefully by February or March I'll be in a position to donate, but 'til then even five bucks is more than I can spare.

Mr. Spacemonkey · 11-30-2003, 05:08 PM

Sure, why the hell not. Bye bye avatar.

Pragma · 11-30-2003, 05:11 PM

Sounds like a noble purpose. Done and done.

dragon2fire · 11-30-2003, 05:13 PM

sounds good to me

sure cant hurt

rockzilla · 11-30-2003, 05:13 PM

I'll miss Bob and Doug, but it's for the greater good.

Just took my avatar down now. And the sig stays for the same reason.

Fremen · 11-30-2003, 05:28 PM

Who am I to be a drag?

The_Dude · 11-30-2003, 05:30 PM

I'll jump in too! I feel all naked though

Mephisto2 · 11-30-2003, 05:39 PM

Done.

And I've turned off "viewing avatars". Never had a sig, so there's nothing for me to remove.

Mr Mephisto

11-30-2003, 05:58 PM

I’m all for the community…

Got rid of my sig.

santafe5000 · 11-30-2003, 06:01 PM

Turned off the sig, never had an Avatar. Money is on it's way. Can't let the line to the outside world go down. I did notice that thing's were moving kind of slow but something is better than nothing. We will survive.

bobby · 11-30-2003, 06:09 PM

TURNED MINE OFF(I thiNk???)...YA'LL SEND $$$ TO HALX,YA HEAR!!!!!.......LOVE YA ALL,BOBBY

sillygirl · 11-30-2003, 06:39 PM

I'm in

anleja · 11-30-2003, 07:06 PM

Avatar off. I was getting tired of my sig, kinda nice I don't have to think of a new one right away, I suppose.

sadistikdreams · 11-30-2003, 07:11 PM

Yo. Sadistik in the hizzie.

sailor · 11-30-2003, 07:31 PM

Avatar gone. Im leaving the sig, but its small. Im also donating when I get payed at the end of the week.

saltfish · 11-30-2003, 07:37 PM

Ahh! I'm naked!

HamiC · 11-30-2003, 07:41 PM

Wow.....nice to see such a positive response from everyone to a great idea by Liquor Dealer.

I have to say, I don't miss the avatars. It is not that I thought they were bad....and no, I never earned one....I just don't really miss them. That being said, I appreciate those who turned them off doing so for the community's benefit. Nice to see the proactive steps people are taking. I hope it helps.

Now it is time to get of my butt and donate...

ARTelevision · 11-30-2003, 07:45 PM

Thanks...

Yes. It is a good time to donate...

Spartak · 11-30-2003, 07:46 PM

Avatar's off, but the sig stays, the glory of Arsenal FC has to be broadcast regardless.

Hehe, now I have to squint and read the usernames of people, instead of quickly realising who they are because of their avatars.

merkerguitars · 11-30-2003, 08:10 PM

Done deal for the avatar

Nefir · 11-30-2003, 08:14 PM

Well, there goes the avatar. I am sure every little bit will help. I feel warm and fuzzy already

Kaos · 11-30-2003, 08:19 PM

Avatar is shut off now, but I never had a sig, so that saved me half the work

costello · 11-30-2003, 08:33 PM

just gettin to the point where i can almost get an avatar ... but i had a long sig so thats off :P

basmoq · 11-30-2003, 08:36 PM

Too new to have an avatar, so I think I'm good, I was just about to add a sig, but I guess not now... Have a good one all

BigGov · 11-30-2003, 08:39 PM

*sniff* I miss my soap box already

Batman976 · 11-30-2003, 08:44 PM

Sure, I'll ditch my avatar for a while and I don't usually have a sig anyway. I suppose I'll do whatever I can since I can't afford to donate.

emphant · 11-30-2003, 08:54 PM

Hey I don't have a sig, I dont have an avatar, AND I donated too! I'm the perfect member!

How do you get an avatar though? A certain number of posts I would think?

BigGov · 11-30-2003, 08:58 PM

It's in your profile options, you get to find a pretty picture to associate with your username.

i8one2 · 11-30-2003, 09:12 PM

gone again, but not forgotten.

Czernobog · 11-30-2003, 09:23 PM

Well, never had an avatar, and the sig is one teeny line, so.....

I DEARLY wish I could donate, but seeing as how I'm on the bad side of the broke line, I dinna think it's possible.

But rest assured, once I get some spare cash, it's going straight to the TFP!

Represent.

Cycler · 11-30-2003, 09:36 PM
