Signatures

OK, I accept that. However, where your freedom of expression hiders mine

It does not hinder your ability to express. Your ability to read what other people are trying to express, yes.

One of them toned it down...perhaps the others will follow suit.

And to think, we only had to ask.

i like my sig... i want all to read it

[Rongar]

Nice! We've hit a new low in blandness. Or is it a high?

The fizz should be in the post, itself - not in the sig

[filihok]

You know, rongar, your sig is three lines which is one line more than Ohms' suggestion of two vertical lines...

i like my sig... i want all to read it

The only sig that I ever read, is my own (and I'm probably the only one whoever reads it! )

Control Panel -> Edit Options -> Thread Display Options -> Uncheck signatures.

thanks, looks much better now.

I made mine smaller

"Freedom of expression"?

What freedom of expression? This is a private board. You have no rights but what is granted.

Another forum dealt with this issue by restricting sigs as follows:

10 lines. Blank lines count.
No size adjustments (upwards) (Downwards is okay so you can fit more in a line, but doesn't change the ten line limit.)
No pics.

I found that a LITTLE restrictive...but not overbearing.

I agree something needs to be done. Turning sigs off isn't the answer, either on a moderator OR individual user level. Sigs is one of the main routes a dynasty writer has to 'advertise.'

I shrank mine, some others have too, and personally I dont find them annoying. if people are annoyed, just turn them off and quit complaining

[HoustonGM]

Signatures don't annoy me. I like reading signatures usually, and as CatKnight said, I've found out about some dynasties through signatures. Its' when the signatures are bright and attractive and gigantic and start to take away from the flow of threads that they annoy me.

ZZZZZZZ......Sorry huh I just woke up....what's all the fuss about?

[RedsoxRockies]

people are complaining about signatures

[RickD]

Oh ok....nothing to see here...move along....ZZZZZZZZZZZZ

[beerchaser]

They didn't used to bother me either, in fact I thought cartman's WTF? cat pic was hilarious. Still do. But then yamiviet started in with his big purple Barney-sized letters, and that started it. I don't really get into the whole dynasty thing, so I'm quite happy with the whole business turned off now, thank you.
