Signature Police

LoBo · 2002-08-23 15:16:47

What with the new rules for signature sizes etc, could we also not allow animated gifs? For example, here's mirv's sig: [Snip. Do not post rapidly flashing images - I will disable the accounts of anyone who does. Cloud.] As you can see, epilepsy-inducing.

Eeeeeeeee! /shabadu gets excited because she finally sees a teeny flashing dot on the interweb; realises that she needs to get a babysitter and go out more.

I'm surprised so many people can read Morse

I'm even more surprised that I've had that for about two or three months and the signature police have only caught me now. You're losing your edge

Your sig was already pointed out to you several times already, the sig rules were quoted for you and people suggested ways in which you could rectify it, however you chose to ignore all of these posts and sent me a rather bizarre PM which I have been unable to decipher.

If you were genuinely concerned you'd have heeded all that has been said to you already.

Just keep the ( "8 dot's and a dash" ) out of the sig.

Surely this is a killing offence?

Btw, there is a rumour in the rumour mill that some poor unfortunate has taken to pm'ing some people about their sigs. Grand so- but seriously- if it's someone like amz, Beruthiel or any other boards overlord, don't be a cocktard. You'll give SIGPO an even worse rep.

WWM's sig is animated, but it's tiny, and also possibly the least obnoxious sig on boards. Besides, he's WWM. I presume Goodshape was only putting amp's here for the laugh too.

Just- don't. Ok? stop. Whoever you are. Before we all get throttled. Jaysis.

I stand by my accusations of brainwashing and sincerely hope for swift and immediate action to be taken against the accused (amp) in this case.

alright, 'twas just a laugh so.

Yes, yes she is.

She's the sort of nutter that would track you down and tattoo her sig to your thigh.

And she's a dote.

Could you compact the text a bit?
Or put a smaller size on it?
Many thanks.

@_@

rkm, you're off the force. For cheek.

Or you would be if I had any say in it, which I don't. Still, Boo-urns.
