Many forums have banned them because they can contain virulent code.
They can hammer those on dialup unless there is a max size setting... loading an animated gif can be only slightly faster than hammering out an animated stone tablet on some connections...

And sometimes browsers puke on them. The three most recent Firefox updates have been extremely unstable... they haven't fixed the stability, but at least they made the recovery upon reloading cleaner
