    AO makes me mad for the 1st time...Hopefully the last

    ISSUE RESOLVED, THANKS CPHILIP



    Why, mods, why?

    I have been gone from AO since about the end of July, or the beginning of August only to return to find some bone head sig replacement. My sig has been up for about a year or a year and a half and then gets DELETED. I have no way of getting it back without remaking it and I have no time due to the current season.

    I do agree however, that there shoud be limits on sigs, but I dont see why they shoud be DELETED right away. A warning should be given via PM or e-mail to the person who has the sig. I also don't see why they should be replaced with a dumb, pointless, demeaning signature that was not desired by me.

    In my eyes, AO is a great place and I can come here to talk to friendly people who have useful information, and maybe even to help some people out. When I saw this "thing" on my post, I lost some respect for AO. By taking one person's art that was made by them (most of the time) from scratch to express their love for the game, and throwing it in the trash really upset me. When I finally get some free time to get back on my AO, I find it has been defaced without anyone notifying me. Can someone, prefferably the mod who trashed my sig, answer some of my questions please?

    Once again, I have a sick taste in my mouth by how this could happen without notice to me here on AO. This is without a doubt, far below the high standards given to AO.


    EDIT: After checking the sig file on my computer, it is 288x101pixels and 6k which is under the 20k allowed limit and the 350x175. Why was it deleted?

          sorry but you're in the wrong here. the sig image rules have been in place for quite some time now. long before you left. there's no way a mod actually deleted your image unless it was on AO's server as an attachment. in that case it belongs to them and if you didn't keep a copy somewhere else that's your own fault. that's doubtful unless something happened to get whatever thread you posted it in deleted. so in all likelihood your image still exists somewhere and you should quit your whining and go find it. and next time remember where you keep things. AO has not been defaced by your sig being deleted. it was defaced by your sig which broke the rules. somebody cleaned it up and you're complaining? any way you look at it you don't have the right.

            There's been a thread or two where they said they were going to start cracking down on sigs and delete them without notice.

            Don't get your panties in a wad. It's just your sig.

                It was defaced by a bone-head replacement sig that was insulting to me and was unnecessary. I'm mostly "whining" about how it was replaced not just deleted. I also, dont see how it broke the rules in the first place. It was black and white, and smaller in size than almost all other sigs that I've seen.

                    I think I hold the current record for delete sigs. They come and go....if you can't read the rules I have a hard time feeling sorry for you....
                    That being said, my latest creation is going to blow you all away. IF i can finish it before I get board....

                        Ehh mods here wouldn't do that, it isn't easy to become a mod here. They aren't just a bunch of 15 year olds like on PBN. Maybe someone just figured out your PW.


                        I do know the AO sig rules, I just want a free sig pic, that's all! :mad:

                          dude its an overreaction....

                          you have to understand that the mods regulate AO 365 days a year and 24 hours a day...

                          they're bound to make a mistake sooner or later...

                          and posting like this isnt going to make people want to fight for your cause...




                          not to mention that I made your sig... and gave it to you..




                          edit* it is saved where I tested it in Official Sig Test Thread...

                            This is a catch-22. I know I cant win, but I know someone made a mistake.
