how so?In the early 2010s I created an avatars user script which turned into a browser extension which results in me getting pissed off after two users were arguing with me over PM and I had enough and lashed out at one of them unfairly updating the extension's backend to inject hate speech into the extensions settings. As a result, I was banned for 6 months, I willingly shut the browser extension was shut down and demand lead to the feature being added to the site. At the end of its life over 2000 people had avatars and even more were using certain other features of the extension such as rotating signatures and quick account switching.
thank you for your bigotry
snipIt's more than just Error on here that's touchy & doesn't want you talking about those subjects or saying them in any thread where it doesn't have the 'politics' tag. Interesting thread though
Error
Lmao, even when soulless corporations ruin stuff it still comes back to Error
Talk about a ripple effect.Every time bby.
There's no doubt in my mind that avatars eventually led to the downfall of CE and therefore gamefaqs.gamespot.com as whole.
Ergo, Judgmeni killed GameFAQs.
Keep in mind I am only posting all of this now because my friend told me CE was shutting downNope not shutting down, it's just private now.

This site has avatars?Ive never seen any.
GameFAQs has avatars?? I legitimately didn't realize. Do they show beside people's names on desktop? I haven't been on GFs on desktop in...uh, I don't remember when I got my first smartphone.No. AFAIK Devin was always too conservative with allowing avatars in posts. That's a user script that I made myself, but there's a wonderful one that another user wrote many years ago that should still be usable now:

Also at the end both Devin and Allen used it (or people exploited the REST API and injected avatars into their avatars I don't know).
Also at one point I captured everyone's IP addresses and did not do anything with them.
Very fun stuff. I'm a software architect at a cybersecurity company now creating enterprise endpoint protection software.

For what it's worth, I might've been the first one to exploit it to give SBAllen his first avatar of a Legend of the Galactic Heroes character, but tons of other people found it a few days later. I wanted to show some friends that I figured it out and might as well go after the most high profile proof I could.Whoever was the one replacing porn with people's avatars was a riot. That was when I was still a software development noob (I was still in college) and didn't know much about anything.
