Possible to make avatar obligate?

[AlfrunGrima]

Hi forumwizard @SkullTraill,

Would it be a good idea to make having a avatar obligate? Momentarily, when you see in the forumlist the box "members online" you see all those colored circles with a character because a lot of people don't use an avatar. Kind of difficult to see who is online and who not. It would be much more clear if everyone has an avatar. It gives more the feeling that there is a real person behind the account, in human interaction would that be a big plus.

Thank you for reading this and taking this in consideration eventually,

Alfrun Grima

...thinking about it, how many non-avatars are active anywhere but in the library? (I'm asking, not really knowing...)

You can probably count me in?
I think you're asking a good question: it'd be a pity to imped some active members from using the forum simply because they're not computer-fluent enough to make or get an avatar (most likely rare, but not impossible at all I think). If needed we can probably help such members?

Absolutely not.
