    can't think of any at the moment, there have been a few ridiculously large ones in recent times but they're mostly gone now. Anything sig taller than 5cm on my screen annoys me. Also those stupid "lolz i are an apple trader" sigs are gone with the rep system :) they drove me insane.

    i vote garth too, just for the laugh like

    Get yourself your very own annoying sig in the world famous photoshoppage sig requests thread!


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 16,659 ✭✭✭✭dahamsta


    For me it has to be anything with Firefox and a car with an IRC channel written down the side of it. Could a sig be more retarded?

    why does the system specs annoy people....? I usually have mine in the sig as it's handy when you are on the comp/tweaking forum, not having to type out the system spec everytime you have query wht something doesn't work...

    EDIT: Hey Garth, while i think your sig is silly, i wouldn't remove the pimp daddy car coz people are having a go at you over it!!! :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,698 ✭✭✭garthv


    naa i was gonna remove/change it anyway
    mords bullying just pushed me over the edge :/


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,286 ✭✭✭SprostonGreen


    The ones that point out your ISP, IP address and Operating System, they're not annoying as such, they're just..... meh, so what.

    It just comes across as a pissing contest tbh. Maybe if this was a dedicated comp/tweaking forum it would be understandable, but it's not. Keep them in a .txt file on your desktop. Are people really needing to type out their specs that much to warrant placement in their sig. I doubt it. It's just "Oooooh look at my specs, they are directly related to the length of penis!" :D

    Well i have to say mine was never meant to directly relate to the size of my penis....way to inadequate (my penis that is) :eek:

    But i disagree regarding the sys specs in the sig. Tis a quick and convenient way to judge a posters experience with certain chips/chipsets and the like, when they advise you on certain technologies! Also dead handy to tell the intel/nvidia fanboys from amd/ati fanboys...if only the console guys would do the same....:D

    But funnily enough i do keep my specs in a txt file on my desktop for posting on the comp forum now.... :D

  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 5,154 ✭✭✭Oriel


    The system specs people are definately very annoying.
    Pictures don't make annoying sigs. Annoying pictures make annoying sigs.
    ...and just some people with downright crap photos.
    Shrimp - you had a really annoying/freaky picture in your sig.

    S.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,727 ✭✭✭✭Sherifu


    The lego A-Team van is class.

    System Specs and those twats that have "clever" sigs that show your IP !!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 658 ✭✭✭Trebor

    Along with your own presumably.

    Personally it's any and all of the firefox militia and their incessant viral marketing, and newband's 'feck off' sig.

    hmm, so how about the option to have different sigs for different forums.....now that would really annoy some people :D

    It is way too big, but then it has to compete with all the crap you have put in your ID under Location.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,461 ✭✭✭Blisterman


    I like pictures in sigs, seeing as you can't have custom avatars.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,107 ✭✭✭John R


    The most annoying sigs are the animated gifs.
    Basquille I'm thinking about you and that stupid fukking monkey.

    All of the rep whore sigs were annoying too.

    yeah and even if you do pay for the custom avatar, it's very small and hard to make something good in that confined size

    I didn't "make it". It was part of a fuller graphic I came across last year on the internet I saved to my hard disc, & all I did was take out a section of it for my sig so it wouldn't break 'sig' rules ....
