SIGPO - Notify

Raphael · 2005-05-05 17:09:20

(from post 4384) SigPo and fans, thank you for your valued, dedicated, and diligent help in promoting signature awareness throughout all these fantastic years we have been together. I must now close this long held tradition in favour of a sleeker, quieter, and dirty laundryless SigPo 2.0. This M3GA-Thread has now been…

I had an idea, dont know wheather it would be taken up or not, but maybe cloud can shed some light if it will work.

Basically create a forum called SIGPO, can be made hidden or closed.
Add mods to it that you want to become "The Sigpo"

Theres a radio button like this

That gives the mods of that forum the permission to edit user sigs, but the question i wanna know does that only apply to that forum or the whole site?
But in thinking hard into it, i think it will allow the mod to access the user info page that all mods see (you know the one), but have the option to edit the sig and allow you to save it.

Only a suggestion, could work if Cloud trialed it to see if it would work, or even if this is at all required.

Sparky.

Afair mods can remove the sig of the user when they edit their post on the forum they mod. I reckon that's probably what the edit signature refers to.

yeah thats what i think it means, i must see myself how it works

Just tried it there: yeah mods can edit the users sig by going into their mod panel and selecting a user once
"Can View Whole User Profile (but not edit)" is clicked yes.

Where the sig is, there is a Edit sig link, which allows you to edit the sig.

So thats that anyway, selected mods for a hidden forum can edit sigs once the permission is set

We really need a Sig Mod with no other authority other than policing sigs. It would free up other mods whose time is currently being wasted on muppets.

Would be a good idea, give the job to a few active SIGPO posters with strict rules to mod only sigs that are clearly outside guidelines.

It would certainly be more streamlined than this set up and would leave the SMods and admins free to deal with all the other idiots.

It's not the commerical advertising I'm talking about.
All in poker is a bit of a "pyramid scheme" type thing, where when you recruit players they enter your down-line and you get commission based on what they gamble.
Just wondering if people are allowed to pimp that kind of thing in their sigs

This guy's signature is in clear breach of the rules as pointed out below. More tangible proof in case he suddenly tries to change it. This is no way for a moderator to behave imo.

Cloud wrote:

* For text signatures: 4 lines normal size OR 8 lines small size, and up to 90 chars per line. Font sizes above 2 are not allowed. Do not use the [.quote] [./quote] tags.
* For images in signatures: 1 image up to 300 pixels wide, 125 pixels tall and 20k in size. No animated images are allowed.

I would like to make it quite clear that I have no inclinations what so ever towards Miss Harney, and I find it quite offensive that I Should to misquoted like that. Quoting is not allowed as per the signature rules above. Whatever this guy won't do is try and hypnotise the whole of Boards.ie into thinking I actually fancy Mary Harney.....Shudders.

Please remove this offensive signature!
