New Rules Regarding Signatures

Postby shekkie75 » Wed Jun 15, 2011 2:07 pm

In and effort to tidy up our forums we are imposing a few rules in regards to signatures. These guidelines have, for the most part, been mentioned before and generally are adhered to for a few weeks and then forgotten. As a MAANagement team we've decided not to be as lax about the topic as we have been in the past.

From now on signatures will be limited to 1 image and 2 lines of text. No more multiple image stacks.
For an example see tastyfish's signature here ---- memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=67

One week from today's date we would like everyone to have complied with new rule and adjusted their signatures.
*Please keep in mind the rules about putting NSFW material in your signatures also.

After a week, members whose signatures don't comply with the rule will receive a PM with their signature material attached and their signatures will be removed until they take the time to set them right.

Thank you in advance for your compliance.

I find the following NSFW and offensive as part of a signature and as a maanager I think the example should be coming from them. Otherwise, this is just a joke.

Ok.....I'll need help with this as I am an illiterate bastard when it comes to making a signature! Jandtng created mine back when Bush was president.
Although I think I do have only 1 image?

So you are telling me that feces and penises are safe for work? That's what I see on your avatar Shekkie. I think you are the one who is confused or think that there is nothing wrong with your signature. I would prefer to see tits going up and down on a signature, than feces and penises.

I'm sorry if you're offended by my signature but there really isn't a rule about them being offensive, just NSFW. That said, you've had ample time to bring your complaint to someone as I changed to this signature on 7/13/10, nearly a year ago.

Seen here ---- viewtopic.php?f=5&t=277&start=620

This just sounds like sour grapes, Treo. If you were offended you would've said so before now.

I got all warm and fuzzy when I saw a PM from Shekkie.
Then I see it's all business. Well fuck....

For example of a perfect signature, see mine. :)

New Rules Regarding Signatures

Postby topodisc » Wed Jun 15, 2011 3:06 pm

In lieu of an image can I get 4 lines of text? I haven't displayed signatures in over a year. Would an admin/maanager be so kind and let me know if mine is ok?

Thanks!
