    Default No More 56k Warnings!

    Back in the day, it was nice of you to let us know that clicking your link would be the cause of havoc on our computer.

    These days, almost everyone is running some kind of high speed internet connection.

    Even if they are still sporting a dial up, they know to stay away from a thread in the "PICTURES and PHOTOSHOP" section or any thread that there is a paperclip on.

    This has become annoying and needs to stop as of now.




    Thank you and good day.

    I dont mind the 56k warnings, but when people get silly with them, thats when they get annoying. Case in point "My Cali Pics (56k GO FUCK YOURSELF)".

    Hide and watch


    News flash, you're not the first person to do it. Therefore, its not funny, nobody laughs and its a little immature.

    (Get the fuck out, go fuck yourself...) You're right, people with 56k actually see what you wrote and IMMEDIATELY go find the quickest means to penetrate themselves. You've done it! Your epiphany has saved the day! Hip hip hooray!

    Not once did I ever say that. But its common sense to not click it. If they do and they see tons of pictures and know that it will take forever to open it, they will probably reserve the right to click the back button.

    Exactly my point. The warning is pointless.
