The Greater Goon: Breaking Hearts and Chains since 2006
So am I the only one who can't get pretty much any images to load on the forums?

It doesn't seem to matter what the host is, only a few avatars will load and that's it. I really don't want to go back to Firefox (it's soooooo slooooooooowwwwwwwww) but if I can't find a fix to this I'll have to :(

What version, have you tried disabling addons, etc etc. You're not doing yourself any favors here. Help us help you.
I was more looking for if there was some sort of general problem with Chrome that made it not work properly. You're right, though, I didn't give any useful information.

When I looked at my extensions list to see if there was something that could be causing the problem, I decided to go into the settings on Adblock Plus to see if I accidentally set something incorrectly. There was some entry for the forums in there (that I should probably have saved because I don't remember it now) that I didn't recognize which I deleted and now it seems as if images are loading properly again. (My guess is that I probably tried blocking an avatar or something on here and didn't do it right.)

It's happening to me as well, even in an incognito window. I tried messing with the font settings in Chrome but nothing seems to change.
I've gotten this on some websites, as well, where some of the text is bolded and italicized.

EDIT: Fixed by removing Roboto Bold from my registered Windows Fonts. It was added by EVGA Precision X, but does not include a non-bold alternative so I guess you could also download and install Roboto to fix it.
In my case it was Open Sans, and deleting it seems to have fixed the problem. Thanks.

Is there a way to do something similar for the forums here? The white/gray scheme is a bit much sometimes :(
I use Something Awfully Wrong, which is a Tampermonkey/Greasemonkey script. It looks pretty nice.

turns out I have to put it to 80% zoom to get the last 4 to display. This is retarded as poo poo considering I'm on a 4K monitor using the default Windows DPI settings which is necessary for such a high resolution. Why not just.... let me scroll down instead of flat out removing them just because they wouldn't fit a single screen? It was perfectly fine before the update. There was no need to gently caress with it like that.
:google: gonna :google:, I guess.
