I know some of you might think that removing background chat messages could be a killjoy but let's think about how much lag users get when they visit chat. We can't ask them to get better internet either. They can't help it if they have to deal with the internet they are currently using, not to mention how fast internets can sometimes be costly for them.

And really. GIF backgrounds are much more murderous than plain image backgrounds. Besides, you can also code your own background-embedded chat messages in your own personal CSS. (I can teach you how it is coded.)

And don't worry. I actually prefer that plain-image backgrounds would stay instead of the GIF ones.
