I'm still offended that they haven't fixed the photobooth yet
From what I've heard they might be removing it
Where did you hear this?
apparently there was a stream where it was discussed sometime in January and Poerkie said they would be removing it however on a stream at some time in February this had changed to they were looking into it (much the same way they're looking into giving CM mods Jmod account status I expect).
HLF thread: 259-260-292-66139819
Also Lyon has said it isn't a problem with the forums but rather an ingame issue

I know this was meant flippantly, but we did get an update recently that they're making headway with this. Not saying it's coming soon, but they are actually putting work into figuring that out - it's just been a lot more of a headache than they predicted.

So hopefully they make progress with the photobooth too lol
I'd imagine whoever did the original code didn't document it well and no one really cared to look into it so now someone has to figure out where it went wrong.
And I swear I'm not going to let her know all the pain I have known

I bet the backend of the game is just a total mess now as it's seen so many devs and revisions over the years.
I have a feeling the photobooth just needs to be written again from scratch.

Honestly, with so few players in the forum it doesn't make sense to waste time doing this.
The avatar module is stand alone, so an avatar image can be displayed anywhere on the site. The forums, RuneMetrics, the header (menu), Message Centre, and you can even go into the module to pull a copy if your avatar to save and use on other websites and services. It's not just a "forum thing".

Food scientists have finally managed to remove the mint flavor from gum! The ex-spearmint was a success!

They need to do it tho. It's not just the forums, it's runemetrics too
What does runemetrics have to do with photobooth??
There is still a huge amount of players that visit the forums, I wish I can remember the numbers, a while back Jagex gave us the numbers and it wasn't all gloom and doom. So yes having the Devs spend time on the photobooth is essential in my eyes.
