You can now block the cornerstone and avatars:

The exception to this will be if we have ads in the cornerstone.

Nevermind, this completely blew the fucking site up. I'll try again when I don't feel like throwing my computer.

I would love to see the ability to block avatars. Some of them are getting pretty racy, and aren't exactly work appropriate.

That being said, a workaround that I've been using is to use the Ad-Blocker Plus extension in Firefox. It grants the ability to block specific images with a couple of quick clicks.

I had it all working, but there's an area that was causing errors that I couldn't find. The reason I couldn't find it is because my work VPN crapped out on me right after I updated the site, so I was forced to roll back the changes.

Thanks Dain. I especially appreciate the ability to block avatars. Have to agree with Batty here, some of them are getting a little embarrassing to have on the screen at school .

Yeah, I'd have to agree with that 110%. No need to have half naked women, or anything else inappropriate plastered all over this site. Has nothing to do with being at work or not for me, I'd just rather not see any of it. I know a few website for when I want to view that stuff.

Thanks for making the changes! They work nice!

I agree, avatars shouldn't be sketchy borderline NSFW

Question: Can any one tell me why I can't get NA mobile to work on my iPhone. This is the only way I have to go on NA at work. It used to work but now it just redirects me to the normal site. Help please!
