They can still be awarded in special cases for extra special meritous actions to Paradox or the forums. Extremely rare.

..he said, with a smug smurf avatar :D

Just out of curiosity - am I getting old and senile, or was custom avatar rights once awarded (automatically) based on post count/membership age?

When the forum had only a dozen members with the 3000 required post count, it was more manageable. We removed it because there are a lot more options now and so many members over 3000 mark, and you need server access to do it so only Admin level can do it.

Ah, I remembered correctly then. Thank you Castellon! :cool:

And I perfectly understand the rationale for not offering it anymore, especially if you need root-access for every change. I remember blue emu getting his avatar, so I take it the policy changed the last couple of years(?). And btw, the increase of forum members probably correlates to more Paradox-business - and that's always good.
