Intentionally or not someone must have hit a check box for images in that forum or something.  
What’s next, avatars?  
I’d like that but I’ve gotten used to the curmudgeonly nature of these forums.

I bet my D’oh artwork doesn’t show up on this board.  
Or does it?

In the other thread, **Sicks Ate** points out that the IMG code is On for The Game Room now, as it is for Thread Games, so it seems likely this change is related to the split.

I like inline images, myself.

Wasn’t me pointed it out, but I did wonder if this is an intentional-but-as-yet-unannounced policy change.

Weird. Tapatalk must just be better at pulling down images.

I think it’s a great idea for Thread Games. There could be plenty of uses for it there. Games could be created based around image posting. There is at least one there already that would benefit from it.

Cafe Society, Game Room, MPSIMS, Thread Games, IMHO should all have images. GQ, GD, ATMB, BBQ Pit, and Elections should all stay image free.

drewtwo has decreed it.

The IMG tag has now been turned off for the Game Room and Thread Games, for those who come to this late and wonder what’s going on.

You can still post inline images if you know what you’re doing!

En el vídeo que hoy os traemos os queremos mostrar mediante una recopilación de golpes y caídas a lo que nos estamos refiriendo, y es que una cosa está clara, si nos gusta hacer el tonto, lo más probable es que al final nos suceda algo malo.
