Anyway, I agree with Qyz about avatars; they're great for recognising another member at a glance (Ironically, I hate Qyz's new avvy for that reason). At Rayman Pirate Community*, another forum I visit, you have to have an avatar that is given to you automatically depending on your ting** count. In the low ranks, you rank up often, so you can't really recognise people this way, especially when multiple people have that rank. I prefer it when people have the higher ranks, because I can recognise them immediately; the supermod Xenon has Reflux 2, our 3rd top poster Beebop has Rayman 3 and the Admin has his own special Bad Rayman*** rank. So yeah, individual avatars is great.
*I'm so cool, I'm a member of TWO separate video game related forums.
