I use chrome, and I didn't get it. Could it be that you are otherwise infected by something?

Chairman, i duplicated the URL and i got it.

Must be a suspicious image used in that thread.

That's always a possibility but I hope not. This doesn't normally happen to me either. That's why I was mentioning it. I don't think bay12 is out to get us or anything like that, but sometimes sites get mistakenly added to google bad site list.

EDIT: well if it's been duplicated we know somethings up and it's not just me. I still don't think it's anything malicious on bay12's part but i wanted to bring it to their attention.

I use Chromium and I didn't get it. It could be a bug with Chrome.

The offending content is Dennislp3's avatar.


EDIT: I sent him a PM suggesting he host it elsewhere.

I know it's unrealistic, but I can't help but imagine little bearded babies for dwarves. In my mind, they come out of the womb fully bearded. That's how the mother carries them around, too, she just drags them around by the beard or ties it to her belt. When the father's on duty, he just ties their beards together and the baby just kind of hangs there, swinging to and fro with Urist McDaddy's movements.
