I'm on Google Chrome, but its a work computer and it just takes too long to load. It's OK, I've blocked the posts with them. I can still see your post though if I click 'Display Post', so it doesn't take AS long to load then. Ok, it's strange - I use Google Chrome. I hope you wont all be blocking me as I see you as friends, not people who block me due to an avatar Your case is different however Sarahhound because it seems your computer doesn't like them

I'm not blocking you because I don't like you, its just because of the avatar killing my seemingly steam powered computer! It's easier to have it blocked and then click to read each post, rather than the comp automatically trying to load the avvies.

BorderTerrier I thought you liked your moving avatar? I second @scallwag, I'm disappointed that you'd let some intolerant person make you feel you need to change it. If some people don't like these avatars then thats their problem not yours. So if you have one then good luck to you. It show you all have a sense of fun, not matter what age you are. Ah you see BorderTerrier took hers off as she didn't want people to complain about her. Yes it's fun as I said in my first post on this thread - some members seem to dislike fun though and I see no reason why. Yes it's a shame BT has taken her avatar off but maybe some members should think about why she did it?

I agree CurlyCub some people should be ashamed of themselves. But I do respect SarahHound comment about slowing things down for them when using an older computer that may not have a good graphics card.

How do you block just those avatars without turning them all off?
My laptop is not really that old either and I am on firefox.

There's no need to discuss this publicly, talking about blocking certain members (if only because of their avatar) could be quite upsetting to them. I won't be blocking anyone you're still alive to me scallywag! Even if you are a dinosaur

I am feeling very low now. I am doing what I want to do! I wish that could be respected. I'm not being 'rolled over', I am doing what I want to do. I can't be bothered with arguing anymore - I've had to much bad experience regarding it and I can't be bothered with it again. Good for CurlyCub and scallywag, standing up for themselves, that's great, but I'm going to let this avatar thing pass by me thanks. All to their own. I'm sorry xxx
