Why even care about custom avatars?
I protest their existance by not having one

Curiass, If you post a lot in the Apoly/Community, AC-Fiction, and Civ III sections, with at least 6 posts in 30-40 minutes of net activity each day, you will reach 2000 posts in 1 year. Thus 1000 posts in 6 months and 500 in three.

Avatars are as useful as a signature, profile, or login-in name. They're just a visual form. What exactly is it you hate about them?

By the way, don't ask.

Not sure if that will work, bribery or blackmail would be a more reliable option. Although I must stress, I would never condone such behaviour.

No, you have to do it the hard way:
Be online a minimum of 8 hours a day and read all posts in all forums but the OT, and reply to everything that you think you can add something to. And don’t even try spaming that will give you PCRs (Post Count Reductions)

I hate that they are a visual form- they take up too much server and download space.

...And they don't seem to work for me for some reason

they're so people that have posted here waaaaay too much can be proud of themselves and look down on new members if they have something useful to say or not.

of course, that isn't always true but there's alot prince+ guys that are asses while i like most everyone else.

Well, you don't have to post lots each day. I've been here since late '98 and I will (finally) reach Warlord sometime this week. Slow and steady. Lets see, at this rate, I will reach deity in....

the year 4714.

Hmmm, something tells me I might not make it to deity.

Click on the picture of the person next to the notecard along the top of one of your posts; or alternately click control panel and then your name to see your profile.

Of course, create learned threads on the Strategy forums causing long drawn out debate over whether to move your Settler North on the 4000BC turn or other similar matters of errudition.
Or - a much more fun alternative - flame the efforts of Eyes - sorry I mean Enigmatic God - to convince anyone that he knows how to play this game ...

If you click on "membera" at the top of the screen, then top 20 posters you can get a run-down of how many posts people have made.

You currently sit on page 72 although only a couple of posts could leap-frog you a few pages.

As you move higher in the list, you must make more posts to overtake someone... The # of Posts gets more spaced out the higher you go.
