Fuse Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 So me and PaperThinWalls were talking about how annoying that symbol is in people's usernames and whether we should remove them. I would love to remove them, because they're annoying. I thought, it wouldn't be fair to the people with that in their name. But, then again, they're disruptive and make you click on other topics by mistake and stretch pages. I know, I'll ask CAWs. Annoying or not?

Misery Business Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 although the Poll is weird, yes that symbol pisses me off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Masson Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 Well, due to my inferior versions of windows, and using Chrome, I can only see a square. Don't see how it's disruptive. Can someone give me a screen of how they are disruptive? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ollie The Magic Bum Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 Remove it. It's annoying, especially when someone with that thingy in their name is the last person to reply in a topic. You can't click on the topic, you can only click on the dude's username.

Jαyson Voorhees Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 Yes, it *censored*s up the ability to click onto new topics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaperThinWalls Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 Here are the problems: [img]http://i46.tinypic.com/28amfza.jpg[/img] Although you can't see my cursor, it was on the date---not on his username. This is the main problem. [img]http://i45.tinypic.com/14o817r.jpg[/img] Although minor, members shouldn't have to put up with this if you mention a member with that symbol.

Guest Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 I have noticed that they're fading out on the forum now but still there are one or two users with the symbol. I think if they can give a convincing argument as to why they have it in their username then they should be able to keep it, but frankly all it does is annoy the rest of us so good luck with that.

Masson Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 I had a feeling it was those things. They appeared when I used FireFox, and a few people had them. They were a bit of a problem, so I am for them being removed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OutҚast Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 I never really had a problem with them because they just appear as [] for me, but if it's causing that many problems for others, I'm all for removing them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
