Deffinatly. When I see a "shartley" or "cledford" post, I'm pretty sure I'm commin' up on quality posts

most of the time, at least.

I honestly can't say that I remember someone simply because of their sig.

most of the forums i post on dont allow sigs at all. the new rules are just fine in my book.

I host my sig elsewhere, therefore it does not eat up AO bandwidth. Do I still have to follow the dimensions?

i didn't know that so many people cared.. wow.
so should it be sigs... or no sigs. j/w

classic posts

ok something else that is really starting to get to me.. but i didn't feel like makeing another thread..
all of those stupid classic posts at the top of the fourms.. those are just as annoying as all of the loading sigs... is there any chance that there should be no classic threads.
i mean, i've had some threads that have had more post then a classic.

Sigs shouldnt take up more space than your post

A classic thread is used to provide AO'ers with important information, for example Signature Rules.
Large events are usually made classic because its easier for the masses to find them if they stay at the top. Classic threads are there for a good reason, as are sig rules.

it wasnt the sigs, or the numbers, except for the overly large ones, it was the number of html tags that the server had to conect with to host the tag... Get it now?

Oh, and just to give credit where due, my sig came from Patrongodofpirates, and i now display it happily on my ao jersy.

Baisically, i gotta say quit your belly achin, its a friggin sig for god sakes, they will be back on monday, GOT IT?

**psycoclown414** · 02-23-2003, 08:27 PM

**magman007** · 02-23-2003, 08:29 PM

**psycoclown414** · 02-23-2003, 08:45 PM

pssst... your sig appears to be to big! hehehe sorry, had to say it!

**Tom Sparkman** · 02-24-2003, 11:55 AM

I got tired of the sigs real fast.

However, the simplest thing to do is to change your user preferences to not show them - I'm surprised more people don't. I also like the option to show pictures as clickable links, that way I don't need to download huge pictures unless I really want to see them.
