    I am not sure what this new policy is about. I enjoy posting pix that extend the joke in the toon and make other people laugh. Why does that bother them?

    Saw this on another comic here:~*Our apologies, but to fight off abuse from the spammers, we now limit our comments to include text with bold and italics only.~Dang. I’ll still come here for the comic but I’ll miss the pics in the comments. I hope they can find a better way to weed out the spammers.

    In fairness to GoComics, I believe all the included pictures (especially GIFs) were a major reason that the site loaded slowly and consumed a lot of memory. In my case, visiting GoComics generally required restarting Firefox at least once, because it would start to freeze up.

    Ten Cats is a favorite for both the strip and the comments. What a wonderful group of people who care about each other and share a laugh or two each day. Because of the comments, I have recommended Ten Cats to everyone who will listen to me.

    I won’t stop coming to the strip because of GoComics’ attitude towards posting pictures (and I don’t understand how that can be considered spam, the comments from the trolls were a lot more spam-like), but I will certainly miss the pictures as they lifted my mood every morning. I may not be able to comment any more as I am not sure how to get bold and italics here.

    Perhaps the problem isn’t the trolls. Perhaps the long stacks of photo after photo posted by some people is the problem. I did that a few times in the beginning when i first learned how to post photos, but stopped. I made it a personal limit of three photos in a row in one forum MAX. And i tried to keep my bunnies on topic, either of the comic, or conversation in the forum. Some people have gone overboard with the number of posts, and that might be the prob

    I, for one, LIKE seeing pictures of kittens, cats, bunnies and puppies. It’s what makes this comment section so different and wonderful. I like seeing pictures of members new pets and seeing the joy. I like seeing the pictures of the cats who have passed on and letting the member share his or her grief with us. I likes sharing pictures of my foster kittens.

    This is where I start and end my day.

    I don’t know what gocomics problem is. Who cares of someone posts 10 pictures of cats in jail outfits or bunnies sleeping in cereal bowls? We are all animal people here and it’s what draws us to this place.

    If go comics is going to do this to us, I, for one, will not renew my membership next year. Now I’m angry that I just renewed it at the end of Sept.

    This comic is perfect for what is going on. We are in Lock Down. I, too, love all the pics, especially ones of commenter’s cats and all the funny ones that make me smile. No smiles today. I will still read the comic as I love it.

    I guess I’m guilty of “spamming” several pictures at a time on this comments section (rarely post pictures on other comics), but a warning would have been nice, or a message implementing a restriction on the number of posts per hour, or something like that.

    I’m a pro member, mainly to avoid the ads and support the site, but I think I will not be renewing my subscription when it comes up for renewal, plus I will move Goat-Comix to a different browser and implement ad-blocking software.Their loss, not mine.

    I have not been commenting here that long. I do enjoy the people and loved the pictures. I only posted pictures twice, but I guess no more. That’s too bad, but it’s their little store so they can do what they want. I will let my pro account expire mainly because of the way they handled the so called “problem”. It wasn’t discussed, there were no alternatives offered or reasons given except for the spam thing.

    Have a great fall and winter everyone..

    I guess I am guilty as well, but I loved posting pics of cats, trying to carry on the theme of the strip. We have an unique community here and I;d hate to lose it. Not renewing your Pro membership would only help GC. They would then be able to get more ad revenue. Please write (politely) to Customer Services and tell them they will lose readership unless they give us back our original format.Today is a sad, sad day.

    I used to browse and really enjoy the icanhazcheeseburger site until the owners/hosts decided to roll out changes that made the site less user friendly and included more adverts, I (like many others) walked away from the site, and its content took a nosedive. This could also happen to Gocomics.

    Not dissing on anyone here, because I do enjoy your photos and comments, but when few commented on the strip, I can sort of see where others would complain, I enjoy this strip, pictures and all, everywhere around here, and all the camaraderie that has happened here. I have friends, email and phone that I have because of gocomics. But the ones they should be going after are the “Trolls Under the Bridge” and they aren’t!

    I haven’t seen anything on any of the 50+ comics I regularly read which would constitute span (like it did in the early days when advertisements were regularly posted). And if the only spam is from the Trolls, then leave the rest of us alone. I am so sick and tired of the 99% being punished for the sins of the 1%.
