 |  Visible vs. Hidden Gamercard
Currently the forums display all gamercards as visible. This means that attached to every single post a person makes, their entire gamercard will display beside their post. We can hide these gamercards and toggle them to appear only when you put your mouse above their gamertag.
An example of the popup gamercard is on the Xbox Live Leaderboard @ Xbox Nation - gXboxLive Leaderboard
So would you prefer hovering over a person's gamertag to view their gamercard or view their gamercard attached to each posts? |

To be honest, I'd rather just leave mine Visible as well as all others.
There is a small load delay when you scroll over those on gBox, and the constant pop-up of gamertags annoys me. | |

I agree, though wouldn't it be easier for dial up users?

But for some reason, when it goes to load them for me it slows them down as they pop-up...(maybe it is just gBox)
That aside, it would be beyond annoying.
Zii said it best.

Zii said it best. | The load time is due to the time it requires to connect to xbox.com and load the gamercard iframe. Faster the connection, faster the load. Simply don't notice how long it takes when the entire page is loading.
It would only be beyond annoying if you're constantly checking your own, or others, gamercards. | |

Well, it is just my opinion (which is what you basically asked for).
No poll, but I would vote to leave it as is. | |

I'm fine with either of them.
