You don't want to see this every time someone posts.

If there's a really tight limit, yes. Nevermind, no.

is
the biggest you can have

It would be terrible, have you seen the size of people signatures?
exactly
i dont want half the page taken up by giant pictures, if sigs were enabled thered have to be an image size limit

the only thing badspot would even bother with if literally everyone on the forum asked him to and bribed him, is a one line signature with like 8 pt font. even then he'd hate it.

badspot recently added a 1000pixel size limit

It would piss off the forums if they had sig. posts, we can clearly see their names to the left side of the post.

thats not what OP means

im sure people would intentionally make long signatures. Most of the time if I scroll through my PMs to find the most recent message, I have to scroll past really long sigs and it sucks

I don't wanna see no stuffty gifs between posts in a discussion.

You can turn them off.

Most (good) forums I've seen that have signatures enabled on regular posts will have a restriction on the height and width of pictures, and sometimes even a limit on the amount of individual pictures allowed in one signature (more than just a character limit).

I suppose I wouldn't mind them too majorly if they were organised and clean, but it would easily promote all sorts of annoying crap.

You'd have people putting in their stupid "Click this link and feed my internet dragon" images.
There would be an enormous amount of random quotes leading to things people said 4 years ago.
You'd probably still have people using "How many people visited this page" sort of thing, which would be annoying on a signature.
You'd have people putting in made-up titles/awards/badges.
You'd have people putting in images and links to their fandoms, which would cause numerous arguments.
You'd also have lots of creeps who constantly praise other people in their signatures to gain their attention.
Loads of random links/"endorsments" to Add-Ons they like or have made.


The only useful things I would find in a signature on these forums would be a banner/link to a Clan topic, banners/links to server topics, and one of those "My server is Up/Down" images.


forget no, that's the main reason I like this forum.

I'm pretty sure it used to be like that
but every forum I've been on that had it enabled had some kind of rules regarding how big the things in it could be, so I'm sure this one would, too, if that were the case
it'd still suck though


it would be awful if we had that feature
people would likely have profanity (or otherwise inappropriate content) in their signature. while that isn't a problem for must of us, it'll likely be an issue for those with strict parents who happen to glance at their child's monitor

It's also unnecessary.

Just because swearing is allowed on the forums, it doesn't mean I want to see "forget ALL THE loving HATERS, forget CUNT stuff forget" everytime someone posts.
