  2. Our gif only content threads have a rule where all thumbs must be posted as a static thumbnail that does not play. Currently imagebam made a change where they no longer produce static thumbs. Therefore, please do not use imagebam, or any host, that provides live playing gifs in those specific threads. If you see your gif playing once you post, try to use a smaller thumbnail and if that does not work use a different approved host.

  4. ATTN: Imagehost picpie is infected with the "internet security warning" redirect that tries to take users hostage with an inescapable redirect. Avoid using picpie as an imagehost.

    :lol: All kidding aside, this has been a persistent problem since the middle of last year but it's hard to really enforce. If you're assuming the "bumper" is using a proxy to change his IP address each time he/she is online, then mods have to constantly watch those IP's to see if they're changing - and even then, the actual using of proxies is not illegal.

    ^ we actively monitor and BAN users with multiple IDs. You can always PM a mod if you have knowledge of someone abusing this policy. We catch a lot of the offenders, but there are always new ones cropping up.
