The OMNI forum has been switched on and off over the years due to misuse by a handful of members.

Avatars and image attachments would have a life here measured in hours and those features, trust me, would then be switched off.
And this is why I do not support avatars. Any special features we have had in the past have been abused within a short period of time. The features are not essential to a rich FT experience, but rather become divisive and contentious. It's baffling, but that is the reality.
