Default FAO Mods with regards to sigs..

I know we have a size for the picture, but can we have a length limit on words etc. As the craze seems to be quoting people in sentences or even paragraphs is getting a bit old and tiresome especially when you have to keep scrolling down half a page to get past them

Its not just that but people put X amount of links all spaced down the page etc. Not sure if it’s just me? But I find it annoying and a bit well, erm….. shit

I do find it anoying when someone posts a pictures or 5, then people posting on the thread, copy the whole post, with all the pictures and re-post them on their post

Same pictures over and over again


I don't get out much

Just turn signatures off in your profile settings...

Makes the site look at least a tiny bit more mature

Agree.... I always use the option NOT to view sigs on any forum I use. Saves wearing the mouse out too with all the scrolling

I do agree but there are siggys just now which are pretty funny. I cant remember the name of who the quotes are supposed to be like but click on the siggy and it takes you to a link. Graceland has one for example.

Think i might turn the sigs off.


THe ones like Gracey has where its two sentences under his sig is fine. But its when numerous quotes are there and they are spread out etc.

i can't imagine it without sigs. how would you put a name to a 'face'? i identify a lot with the sig pics, but then i suppose the aviator could also do that

chuck norris got fed up of mine and got rid this morning. i realised the ridiculousness of it all when i saw one on AlexF's that said "there are no such things as lesbians, only women that AlexF has not met"

as i make sigs i know all the size restrictions etc but think that the 25k limt is a bit small and limits to how good a sig can be , am i correct in thinking that it is to do with how the site runs speed wise that its only 25k?
