All ruby members (and maybe some other usergroups) have had there avatar sizes decreased. I have been infracted because mine is too big :rolleyes: To be honest management should have told everyone because I had no idea that the sizes had changed.

There was an announcement at the top of every forum which was there for about a week.

There was a global announcement on the forum giving you so many days to sort your signatures and avatars out. There was also an announcement about the new ranks/different features.

Even though I've not been caught out - purely because I don't have an avatar - I think a thread which everyone had to view would have been much more useful, for example, I don't even take notice at the global stickies considering they're not bold like new threads.

A thread that people must view to carry on using the forum would have been much more effective.

To be honest when that was done everyone complained you had to view that aswell. So you can't win really.

People are always contacted via pm before they are given a warning/infraction anyway. It doesn't count as anything really just a reminder so unless that message is ignored the change in avatar size limits shouldn't really affect anyone badly.

But if they don't want to read it, they can simply click off the thread :P

Is there an add on or something where you can choose to be notified (by email, PM or being sent to the thread or something...?) about important posts?

Everyone would have it switched off if that was the case anyway so I can't see it doing a great deal of good :P

As has been said, there was a global announcement that was pretty hard to miss and was there for a week, it certainly irritated me so I don't know how you managed to miss it :P But like Jess said, you are contacted by PM before you get warned/infracted anyway so if you didn't know before, you do now!

Then do a global announcement and a post everyone should see then :P

I probably missed it because over the four years, nothing really important is put up there... Just the normal 'No spamming' and certain rules for each forum. Meh :P

I saw it, but I must admit that Announcements would be a lot better if they were 'bolded'. Is that a word? But yeh.

I would have used Force Thread but it broke when we upgraded the forum :(
