Robotengineer Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 I have noticed some former moderators who still have large avatars, is there a reason for this? I can see why moderators should have large avatars to be able to get peoples attention, but there isn't any reason for former moderators to have them that I know of.

Vanamonde Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Mostly, because the forum software needs a permission to make a larger avatar, but not to keep one. But also, the bigshots say its an acknowledgement of their efforts on behalf of the community. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norpo Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Ok, giant animated penguins are distracting though.PROTIP: Get adblocker if you don't already have it (there's probably a version for pretty much every single browser nowadays), right click the offending avatar, and block it.
