What are you talking about Muff1n.

There's no shortage of forums that have built-in image alignment.

That one won't make the picture smaller/loading time shorter. The reason the 500 height rule exists is so the loading time is shorter and so people don't have to scroll too much.

Oh please, who complains about how slow the forum is? It's perfectly fine, especially when there are massive threads (What's on your Mind version 1) compared to other websites. Doesn't anybody remember dial-up? I do.

Follow a simple rule, don't tell us to fuck off because you think you shouldn't have to follow a rule, that most resonable people think should be enforced.

It's that really draconian? Please.

...No?

What is the point of this thread, then?

It seems like the decision to have this transparency deal is a wavering one. I mean jesus, look at you -- you're getting all defensive when I haven't shown any real reason to warrant the reply 'deal with it' -- just simply an objection (I derped the OP and assumed "talk about decisions" meant just that. Sounds like resentment to me.

Yes they do, that's why they're spoiler tagged. Obviously larger resolutions will produce longer load times as a whole but are you insinuating you know of some magic formula of what is desirable and what isn't? The tags are there to give members the obvious to view said larger sizes.

I'm sorry man, but really?

What authority do you have that 'most reasonable people' believe a forum image larger than 500x500 is abrasive. Lol, good god.

This thread, as far as I'm aware, isn't about arguing with the rules. If you want to debate that he didn't break a rule, fine, but the rule he broke is here to stay.

We hear your complaints and, after talking, Frag and I have agreed on how to handle this. From now on, the staff of The Halo Forum will be more lenient. We will not close threads without a provided reason, posts will not be deleted, and members will not be banned without a public reasoning provided in a thread that will be made in either CoT or THF support, stickied, and constantly updated by the moderators as a "moderator log." It will be open for discussion so any decisions can be defended and debated in a mature manner. In my opinion, the recent hostility towards the staff can only be answered with more transparency.

We are willing to compromise to ensure that everyone enjoys their experience on the forum and, as the administration, it is our job to reflect the wishes of the members. If the majority find this decision a mistake, we will adjust as we all see fit. Personally, I'm sick and tired of how divided this site is becoming. Things aren't perfect by any means, but the fact of the matter is that we have two admins who are constantly trying to make this place not only better for you all now, but for the future members we are hoping to bring in when the site goes through the upcoming updates. Can we just work together? Some of us have been here for six goddamn years and I think we all deserve to keep this site afloat for as long as we can.

Oh yeah? Seems like you're speaking on behalf when you're out of the loop.

I think we should rename the H in our name from Halo to Hypocrisy.
