View Full Version : A Modest Proposal to TJ
ABlairican Pie 06-30-2003, 11:46 PM Obviously people are upset that their siggies are no longer going to be part of their posts. This is a big part of their self-expression, their personalities. Obviously we want our siggies.
BUT.... We seem to forget we have taken advantage of the priviledge of our siggies, and made them 20 times larger than a simple two-word response on a thread. These things cost a lot of money, and people apparently haven't been coughing up. And I just want to say since I have been a big poster here, I have been planning on sending a couple bucks out of gratitude for all the fun here. I don't want to see people's siggies missing from here on out, but I don't want to see TJ left in a lurch over this. Is there SOMETHING we can do to rectify the problem? I think I read someone say if we pitched in a few bucks here and there we could have a siggy...I don't know. I don't think it's going to do too much good for people to leave if they can't get their pictures up, because that might spread ill will to other online boards people go to, some jilted party might start bad-mouthing us here and not want to come here. We have to do something, because this is has been a great place for us. We are all family, and this is our home. We have to consider TJ's feelings about this, but there has to be some middle ground where we can get our siggies up as well as committing some kind of financial help to do so.
MonarC 06-30-2003, 11:57 PM I agree...
Who needs attachments???:rolleyes:
I can post pics all I want the way
I am really pissed about the siggy thing.
Especially since I paid a little ($1) to support this site.
I think that the people who have paid
should be allowed to have a small siggy within reason.

It doesn't bother me one bit. This is TJ's board. He can run it however he wants to. I agree we've been a bit selfish as far as images in signatures go.
My last signature, with the Bill Hicks picture and long quote - when TJ posted his poll, I realized how ridiculously long it was and immediately changed it.
He's also really lenient on our avatar sizes. 125x125 pixels is PLENTY! Most boards I post at are usually half that, if they even allow avatars at all!
TJ, whenever it will be possible for me to do so, I'll donate some cash for the boards. I've spent a year and a half on it, I've enjoyed it, and I really don't think you're the only person who should be flipping the bill for it. Thanks for tolerating my B.S.
¤I Love Clay Aiken¤ 07-01-2003, 12:03 AM I agree. I wonder if none of us over used the power of the sign's and followed the rules, we'd still have them.
dawsongirl 07-01-2003, 12:03 AM Totally OT...but that title reminds me of Jonathan Swift and I thought maybe you were suggesting TJ eat some of us...:lol:
If you've never read that story, that made no sense, I'm sure.

And um did we really need ANOTHER topic about this?
Czas na Zywiec 07-01-2003, 12:10 AM I feel good tonight so I'm not going to shut up about it. I'm sure the 15 lines of text MAX rule still counts. It's long to scroll through. It also shifts over the whole post. You may be bitchy and hate me, but oh well. I'm sure I'll learn to live with it. I agree, it looks amazing, but itgoes against the rule. Ultimately, TJ will decide if it's legit or not.

Is your screen resolution 800x600? Because mine's 1024x768 and it doesn't shift anything on mine. Oh well. And who said I was bitchy and hated you?

Pandora,
I'm sure a lot of hard work went into that, but it's a tad on the long side and kind of tedious to scroll through.

Yes, my screen resolution is 800x600. I never said you were bitchy, but by seeing all those immature people whine and complain about losing their precious pictures, I wouldn't be surprised if you told me to 'Shut up' or 'Go to hell' for telling you about your sig.

It doesn't bother me one bit. This is TJ's board. He can run it however he wants to. I agree we've been a bit selfish as far as images in signatures go.
My last signature, with the Bill Hicks picture and long quote - when TJ posted his poll, I realized how ridiculously long it was and immediately changed it.
He's also really lenient on our avatar sizes. 125x125 pixels is PLENTY! Most boards I post at are usually half that, if they even allow avatars at all!
TJ, whenever it will be possible for me to do so, I'll donate some cash for the boards. I've spent a year and a half on it, I've enjoyed it, and I really don't think you're the only person who should be flipping the bill for it. Thanks for tolerating my B.S.
I agree,AKA,it doesn't bother me,either! :D

Kristen 07-01-2003, 12:30 AM Holly, that Liz pic was really, really good. Must've taken a LOT of work!! (But I know you didn't really think of it as work! ;)) Anyway, about having pics in our sigs, maybe we could if there was some kind of limit on size like we have for avatars? I liked having mine. I never had a long sig, and I think there has to be some sort of compromise on this issue. Then again, it's TJ's board, and what he says pretty much goes.

Czas na Zywiec 07-01-2003, 02:59 AM I clicked on this page at 12:48PM. It didn't fully load everything until 12:54. That's 6 minutes. Is it supposed to take 6 minutes for a page to load? No. Those binary code pictures are just as bad images. No doubt they're cool, but they don't work. I wasn't going to say anything, and you might think I'm just being an arsehole, but those things just got to me so bad that I had to say something. I still believe the 15 LINES OF TEXT MAX still applies to signatures even thought images aren'tallowed.
I am going to have to agree with Original Prankster on that one. The amount of text probably is more then some of the photos that were being posted. I don't think they are a good idea, although they look cool.

Forgive me, Chris because I like you and all, but you're complaining just as much as the people who are complaining because there are no pics. So obviously, no one's gonna be satisfied. :rolleyes: You must have one slow a$$ modem! I have cable and I'm still not satisfied of it's speed.

TJ, between one webmaster to another I know it costs a lot to keep a site going. Especially, with bandwidth issues and such. How about we have a compromise? You allow only 1 pic in siggy's and you can keep them showing once per page like you have them now, but the catch is everyone has to link them from another site not SO. Like register a free account at boomspeed.com, like I have for my pics that I use on this site. And if it's a must have a pinned thread where people have to sign so we make sure they follow the rules about the 1 pic in the siggy deal. Make sense?
This is just a suggestion to try and make a compromise over this whole thing.
I really, really miss the pic below in my sig. :(

Excuse me? I follow the rules to be courteous to other people. I don't think anyone should be exempt of them, not even you. Look at TJ's post after mine. He even agrees. You might as well have a small sized picture and it'd load faster with it. I don't care if you like me or not, that's not the point of the post. I could care less about my popularity around here, or else I still wouldn't be here. The point is I'm trying to be a part of this forum as much as anyone else. Fine, I'll shut up about it. Do what you want. You can have your way. But I'm 100% sure there will be a lot more people to bring it up later down the road.

It won't work. There will ALWAYS be people who will abuse the rule and just keeping adding pics. It was two pictures when the rule was first initiated, but then it spiraled out of control. They'll NEVER listen to you, and you just can't ban them. Why can't you just be staisfied with text like the rest of us? The boards survived two years without signatures OR avatars and they were STILL enjoyable. They will continue tobe. Like I said beofre, it's PEOPLE that make up a message board, not images.

I never said anything about how popular you are or not. All I'm saying is that everyone is now complaing about how everyone else is complaining b/c there are no pics in our sigs. Well, now you were just adding to the complaints only on the other side so as far as I see it EVERYONE is complaining and whining about it. I just posted a compromise for TJ, but with all the extra posts I doubt he'll even see it. Don't get mad at me b/c I was stating my opinion on how I see the whole situation.

Well, it isn't my fault people are so stupid and can't follow rules. Maybe everybody should be banned and the board should be taken down if people can't follow rules. We should all be punished then. For pete's sake everyone is so stupid. :rolleyes:
A PLAGUE ON ALL OF YOUR HOUSES!
I'm siding with Chris on this one. These binary code image signatures - while cool - are kind of like directly going against TJ's wishes. Sure, they don't take as long to load as gifs or jpegs, but they're still eyesores and they definitely flood threads.

I don't care. They are still TEXT! I don't care anymore. Ban me, I really don't give a sh*t. I guess mama was wrong to fight for what you want, no matter how small it is.
Ravey 07-01-2003, 03:47 AM The binary code images work fine on my computer. I think it all depends on what type of computer you have, as much as what type of connection you have. On my old Windows 98 computer they make the pages load slow, but on the computer I use most of the time, my Windows XP they don't cause a problem.
fr00ti 07-01-2003, 03:50 AM You know what I think? I think that I agree with everything Holly says. And just because you have slow dial-up Chris, doesnt mean everyone else should have to change everything so you can be happy. JMO.

They work fine for my computer too. I don't really see how they are a picture though, like Holly said it's text. No one is breaking rules by having it in their siggy.

Yeah, they load just fine. My complaint is as listed above. But I'm not too worried about it. Why don't we just wait and see how TJ feels about them before we fly off the handle?

Because people wanna be stupid and start fights. They are text people in the shape of people we admire. Oooh big deal! :rolleyes: Maybe their just jealous cuz they don't have one in their sig or maybe it's because they don't know how to make one. Whatever the reason is they're just complaining about it to have something else to complain about.
If you all don't wanna look at sigs there's this little image called 'User CP' click on that, then click on 'Edit Options' go down and turn off siggy's. How hard is that?

I'm really not trying to start a fight. I voiced my concern in a civilized manner. I never once said, "Hey, doodyhead, your Samantha Stevens signature is too big. And you suck!" I just stated my opinion and that was that.
Oh, by the way, I don't think you're a doodyhead or that you suck.
Kristina 07-01-2003, 03:57 AM Here's an idea...
Maybe, someone could start a sitcoms board WITH freedom and doesn't have one person running the whole thing and making bad decisions.

Right. I know that. And I don't mind looking at signatures at all. I'm sick of repeating myself. If you don't want to read my posts, that's not my problem.

:lol: ..and it's spelled 'Stephens' on the show. ;)
Anyhow, I voiced my opinion 2 pages ago and got attacked about what I said so now I'm sitting here bitching to everyone who tries to complain about everything else I said. I tried to be nice about the whole thing, but I got attacked for it so of course my defenses are gonna kick in and I'm gonna fight back about it.

I never said I didn't want to stay, did I? I'm not too pleased with the way things have been going and when I asked for the money I donated back TJ tells me to get the text out of my signature because it's an "image" or else he won't give me back my money. AFTER HE OFFERED PEOPLE WHO DONATED THAT THEY CAN GET THEIR MONEY BACK. I did not have to give him my money, I did it because I liked the boards and wanted them to stay the way they were.

I can see that side of the argument, too. And hopefully, you can see mine.
Anyway, I said all I'm going to say on the subject for now. It's off to bed I go.
Do any of you want to go to work for me in the morning?

Why don't you take it up with him in a private message instead of airing it out here on the boards he puts hard work into? It's the least you can do for the guy. Hell, he's let you post on his board for two years. I think he'll give you your money back. Me? I'm going to donate. I like the way he's running things here. He's doing the best he can.
But like I said, you really should take it up with him via private messaging. Talking **** about him here is totally not cool.
Kristina 07-01-2003, 04:08 AM Oh, and these boards are so strict. It's like a religious board. For cussing I've almost been banned a few times, there is something called 'freedom of speech'.
Now watch me get banned for voicing my opinions "rudely" or whatever. :lol:

I'm not talking **** about him, I'm just saying how unfair it was for him to tell me the text in my signature was an image and if I didn't remove it I couldn't get my donation back that he offered to do for people.

Well, last time I checked, it was his board and he can do what he wants with it. Wouldn't you say that's a correct statement? Why or why not? Show your work on scratch paper.
Anyway, goodnight, folks.
Kristina, I am sending the $3 you graciously donated back to you tomorrow. I don't need it.. not with your attitude, just consider yourself lucky you haven't been banned for all the crap you've caused since you've been registered here. Grow up already.
