Question Avatars/Signatures On or Off?

Avatars on, easier to indentify posters when scrolling thru a thread rapidly

Signatures off, some are just too long. Let's clean it up people. 5 lines max, no double spacing. Records or a short quote, not a whole ****ing verse of a song, indirectly using iggs as an example. long sigs make it 3x harder to read threads, especially while on iphone.

also let's keep it to records of sports people have actually seen on TV before. records must be current, and don't bother posting one if you have restarted it 3 times already this year.

If you want to state the awards you won that's ok, or maybe a HOF member, but lose the ones that say you won a weekly hockey contest 3 years ago, wasn't important then, isn't now.

no stating ur fav team won a championship either, don't know if u can do this anymore, but absolutely no pictures for a signature, that's why we have avatars

if ur signature is longer than ur posts, just delete it all together

I agree totally. Have to have avatars on, does make it so easy to know who's posting very quickly and just puts a picture to the poster.

Judge doesn't want Seanie to rip his book. Honestly people spend way more time then needed worrying about other posters.

I wish the signatures could be the same size as the avatars.


Keep the 500 x 100 and go from 19.5 KB to 97.7 KB
