View Full Version : Signature pics and limits (please read)

I'm putting this at each board I moderate. This isn't my rule, it's TJ's rule. He mainly talks about sig pics and the limit on sig pics in the Chit Chat forum. Some of you might not visit the CC forum, so I thought I'd post it here, on the Batman board and on the Beaver board.

Okay, about a week or so ago, TJ took out sig pics. But he said we could still have text in our sigs. A few people started putting text pictures in their sigs, so TJ took out text for awhile and sigs were just empty. TJ posted yesterday that he was turning sigs back on, but we do have a limit on what we can put in our sigs. Of course, you can still choose whether or not you want 1 pic or 2 pics in your sig, but the combined total of both pics has to be 50K or under. I'm sure nobody will put you on the spot if you go a bit over, say 51 or 52K. But if it's 60K or 70K, you'd better shrink it up just a tad bit.

Some of you might be wondering what the hell a K is. And how can I tell if I've went over limit. Now I'm not gonna fork out all this jazz about a K=KB and all that stuff. Someone explained it like this on Chit Chat and I think this is possibly the best explanation. I would like everybody to look at my sig pic, so I can use it as an example. Please point your mouse cursors to my sig pic, and I want you to get right in the center of the pic and I want you to right click on the pic. If you did this right, a menu will pop up. Look through the menu options and go to 'Properties'. Look at the size of my pic. My pic is 38279 bytes. Okay, you divide the size into a 1,000. You'll see it comes up 38, so my pic is 38K. I'm under the limit and I'm safe.

Please everybody don't just assume you can get away with having a big pic in your sig that is way over 50K. On Chit Chat, it does look like TJ will be cracking down on offenders. If I remember correctly, he will warn you once. If he has to warn you twice about your sig pic, I think he takes away your sig. Not sure if he'll take it away forever more or just for a week or so. I will post the links to CC where TJ talks about the sig pics. I would recommend everybody reading that. I explained it the best way I could, but if you want it in better details, I would suggest you reading TJ's threads. If you still have a question, you can ask me and I'll try and answer it the best way possible.

I'm making this thread a sticky for the time being, btw.

None of my posts today have my sig pic on them. I checked the size and it isn't too big.

Sig pics have one again been taken out. I'm unsticking thread for now since the sig pics are indeed gone. However, you can still have quotes in your sig.

We are not gonna go through this again. I refuse to do it. This Walllllllllleeeeeeyyyyyyy crap had nothing to do with the original topic. Keep it up and I'll ask TJ to ban your IP #s. I'm sick of this. A bunch of trolls coming and ruining a perfectly good board. It's not gonna happen. That's all I have to say and this is all I'll say. You try to dare me and you do it again, I'll IM TJ in a split second and have your whole gang banned.

You edit but you can't put something that the person didn't say. Other will think it's their comments.

I only edit the stupid crap out. Don't like it, click that X button and close out the window. You people remember 4Aaliyah? That person got banned. I guess you people will be on the ban list shortly.

This isn't right you are making a mistake. People will think I said those things. That's not right. Don't be dishonest Jenny. Just talk to me don't edit my lines. That's not right that violates freedom of speech.

Like I said you COULD edit but make sure you don't put anything down. Others will think I said it and that is completely WRONG. As a monorator you should know better than that Jenny. I was just having a little fun. Trying to back my friends up now I'm really pissed off. That's not gonna be pretty.

Really? If I was making a mistake, if any of these moderators that moderate boards, if they didn't edit out troll messages and other senseless crap, this site would be overrun with trolls. Do you see where I'm coming at. I'm a moderator, I'm one up above Senior Members. The administrators have all the power. Thankfully TJ and Pav. both ban troublemakers. Sorry, moderators can't babysit some people like preschoolers. I won't babysit you. I don't get paid to babysit. You say something that isn't about supporting trolls, I won't edit your stuff.

Let's see what the law states on this subject matter. Ok, Jenny you could get back on my good side. Just apologize for what you've done.

Yes you could edit, edit all you want I could care less. But Please don't put words down.

You wouldn't like to see me getting pissed either. And you can have fun, but this isn't fun. These people got yelled at before for the same exact reason. If they came back and behaved themselves, we'd wipe the slate clean. But no, apparently they haven't learned their lesson. So I'm stepping out of the way. It's up to TJ now. He can ban you, put you on read only, maybe put you on a temporary ban. And you've already stated your case. You didn't say the stuff, I didn't edit out the past couple of conversations.

You don't need to go to TJ or whoever. All you have to do is not put words under MY name.

He will still be able to see what you originally said. And I do think I have to go to TJ. It's apparent you people don't know how to act. Good god, just act regular and we wouldn't have a problem. I'm quite a calm person. But I'm sorry, this site has been overflowing with trolls lately. And trolls just make this site not even worth coming to. If I didn't have the friends I have on Random, I would've left. It's not fun anymore.

Oh I see. I really didn't do anything wrong. What you did was wrong making people think that your words was mind. My goodness. This is ridicious. Once again don't call my friends trolls. We just having fun. Calling people trolls for saying WWWWAAAAALLLYYY and playing around that's wrong also. I'm sorry but this is getting out of hand. I sure as heck don't want this dispute with you Jenny. But calling my friends trolls is getting a little over the edge.

This is my last post I'm making in this thread and the other because frankly I'm gonna let TJ handle it. You really and truly don't get the point, do you? You can have fun, we aren't fuddy duddys, but we like to have serious discussions (okay, so wedgies aren't exactly the serious topic of the year) but that sig thread was pretty serious. I was stating what rules TJ had set, others might not go to Chit Chat to see the sig rules. And to post page after page of crap, when the whole post could be serious, it's just not even worth reading if you got serious posts mixed in with junk.

You want fun? Take it to a pm or email or IM.

What I originally said didn't violate anything. I was just backing my friends up.
