Anyone know how to block individual avatars? I don't want to be forced to turn off all avatars, but occasionally I come across certain avatars I really just don't want to see.
 
some browsers allow you to block images, so I'd use that feature against them, it'd remain blocked until they changed.
 
I admit there's a few I put my ICQ box over while I read their posts. Then again, I really like my ICQ skin.

How does that work?

Jim, it's not your fault. It's my problem. I just can't take serious posts seriously when presented by genitalia. That goes for anyone's private bits. Except for Ginny's. That one's just a hoot.

I'm going to look through my browsers to see if there's one besides the iCab that will do it.

Not to worry. I was gonig to change it anyhow. Though I find it makes me feel better to know that my genitalia isn't funny. ;)
 
go on irc

There are a few channels dedicated to vbulletin boards and have created software you can run with your browser to do what every kind of blocking you like

presently I am using a little program that deletes all unregistered guests posts, they won't show up period.

there is a little program that you can download from there as well to cancel individual avatars as well
 
This is a very open society and the freedom rings. I work with dickheads all day long. Have no urge to look at them all night as well. I am sure I am not the only one who does not read those posts but skips down to the next. Unless the next post is another PenisPoster in which case I go play Mahjongg.
 
Put the poster on ignore.

The things you'll pick up off of IRC to block or work with vBulletin stuff is, well, unless you're familiar with computers and software, DO NOT USE THEM. Script kiddies who write these programs are great, but they're also the people who propogate viruses and things.

Accepting anything from IRC is like accepting Halloween candy. Most of it is probably safe, but sometimes people poison it. Unless you know what to look for, it's better to be safe than sorry.

Since when do Script Kiddies write stuff?

That's like saying that the illeterate who write novels are great.
 
True.

The people who write this stuff can't be trusted not to insert malicious code into it.

Better?

"Put the poster on ignore."


She doesn't want to put the poster on ignore, she just doesn't want to see the avatar.
 
It's okay, or mostly okay.

I changed my av, which should have solved most of the problem.
