What? Question is so unclear.

Citizens of Me! The cruelty of the old Pharaoh is a thing of the past. Let a whole new wave of cruelty wash over this lazy land.

Hear the word of Pharaoh. Build unto me a statue of ridiculous proportion. One billion cubits in height......that I might be remembered for all eternity!

And be quick about it!

Hmm... good question, I don't know.

It's quite clear, just terrible grammar.

Edit: Thanks Achronos, now I know, and knowing is half the battle!

I believe this is what DoubleMatt was trying to ask.

As I was thinking about changing my avatar, I noticed that there was no Halo: Reach spartan or elite player model option (for an avatar). Why is that?

I don't know.

Count how many possible variations of Reach avatars there are. Then scale that with the number of potential users.

Add in the strain of the forums would put on the avatar renderer, and it just isn't worth it.

Is that why H:3 ones are allowed? Because there are less possible combinations?

....spongy, bungie, who cares? I got mine!

Download firefox, then the add-on Greasemonkey.

Make a script to change your Avatar to whatever you want. Boom, problem solved. But it'll only show on YOUR computer.

I use that method, and that's also why on my computer, My text is the same color as my Member bar, Blue. And I have a bright blue highlight around my Member bar, kinda like how mods have the orangeish bar with bright orange highlight.

I also made a script I can add peoples users names to and it blocks their post from my view, so I feel like I've banned them.

I have this false sense of being special... Wow. I'm a loser. Wish I were a real mod instead of a fake greasemonkey mod :(

I acknowledge my user name is stupid. However, I promise I'm not.

Disclaimer: The latter is a lie.

Most likely.

They sure didn't remove the avatar option, so one can presume. :D

Why don't you just get coup so people can actually see that stuff?

I think Achronos is trying to tell us that it will make load times for the forums longer. He and the webteam are smart people, I'm sure they have their well discussed and thought out reasons.

I suspect llamas are secretly wizards. I <3 poptarts n' milk. I like me. Grimick is defined as: a logical parodox, the act of funnaling a potato down your throat, and a deliciously flavored muffin (with pecons and blueberries). Norway is the Swedish word for 'moron'. My sister has cancer, so i get to use handicap parking and cut small children in line at Disneyland.

The problem with that is that coup gives me such a big head ache. So many people use such bright, flashy, contrasting colors that trying to read becomes a nightmare.

Just ignore the bad ones, or if you're to lazy for that, ignore all. That way people see your coup, and you see your coup. Everybody wins!

Yeah, and since my car already has power, why won't my car power my full sized fridge? I DON'T UNDERSTAND!?

But about coup, I tried it before, it made the pages WAY to laggy.

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

There is like 10x the customization options for Halo Reach than on Halo 3. Not including all the different color variations to add to all the armors.

I wonder if their next game has character customization and if we can display player models for that. My gut says no becuase high levels of character customization isn't good on the forums but I am curious nonetheless.

Just ignore all, then you can only see yours and there's no lag.
