Well, SJ is a National Security Advisor, which is almost as high as you can get.

And about avatars, you can upload them to shrapnel, to save your own server space. If you click on this link, you can still upload stuff to shrapnel. Just use the url that it gives you in your profile, where it says "Use Custom URL".

Who knows? Minister of war for us Commonwealth Countries or Head of Joint Chiefs for the US?

(I know they are not the same things but both of them high up the ladder.)

It now takes me 2x to 4x longer to load a page....You guys accessing on company T1s don't have to worry about banwidth, but us living in the Qwest induced technological suckhole do. I thought waiting 45 to 90 secs. for a page to load before was bad, now I can see I won't be reading very much here. Bells and whistles. Besides, It cheapens the special effort people went into to get pics on their sig before. Why do I care if someone else in logged on? I'd rather have my privacy. Pic for "Poll" and a couple at the page bottom are not loading.

Check your profile. At the bottom of the page there are "Hide from Recent Visitors" and "Hide Avatars of Other Users". Hope that help.

The load time is not due to the mod, it is due to the fact that our server is maxed out and it why we will be moving to a new server over the weekend.

In the past, after posting I would be taken back to the topic and it would show my new post. Now it takes me back to the topic and shows me what was there *before* my post. I have to hit Refresh to see my post.
I've never seen any behavior like that.

I only have a 31.2K connect, and I haven't noticed any change in the page loading speed.
