you can't because the forums have been hacked and they haven't fixed it yet..

If you read the linked thread in my previous post, you will know that the avatar indeed has nothing to do with the hack at all...
It was initially suspected by many that the attack was done by exploiting a flaw in SMF which allows you to upload any file to the user avatars directory, and then using a misconfiguration in nginx to execute this file as a PHP script. However, this attack method seems impossible if PHP's security.limit_extensions is set.

That feature is disabled by the administration i think, because someone told me that it was the reason of forum getting hacked some time ago correct me if i'm wrong . 

Yup, you are right. The feature is disabled since Oct 2013.
