about your signatures - please read - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Could everybody please do me a favor try and shorten your signatures if you have more than 3 quotes - try and keep them to 3 quotes or less.. Also, you don't have to post your signature file more than once per topic - it does not make much sense to a one line reply then post your entire signature again.

I don't want to eliminate the signature option but at the same time I hope everybody can shorten them if they are really long and not post them more than once per topic. Thanks!

I know this may sound snotty...but it isn't how i meant for it to sound...but why is it such a big deal for the signature to be over 3 quotes?

Jo: No I didn't, it's a stop watch...it stopped

Jo: So things change, you're born, ya move on, ya die, that's life.
Blair: Don't get too mushy on us!

because these are not 'free' message boards, I have to pay to host them and once I reach a certain level of space and bandwith I will pay even more.. plus it is just annoying to read a one word reply then scroll through a whole page of quotes in somebody's signature file. The little 3 1-line quotes aren't a problem, it's the signatures with quotes/scenes which take up a whole page or 3/4 of the page. I know they give people an identity or personality, I just don't want to see them overused.

I think it's a simple request everybody can follow, the other option would be to disable them entirely.

No problem, TJ.

I don't even look at a person's signature line and quotes. I scroll right past that kind of stuff.

I shortened mine to 4 quotes.

I had to bump this to the top. Self explanatory really...

06-17-2001, 09:51 PM

I don;t even use mine

Max Whittaker · 06-17-2001, 10:13 PM

I'll stop using mine if it'll save you money,TJ. I don't want to cause trouble.
But to many people depend on their singnature for a picture so I'll sacrifice mine for theirs.

Bump to the top for obvious reasons...

No way. It's fine. Mine could be considered long and if anybody complains about mine, I can remove a pic.

Yeah keep the Spike & Drusilla pic and remove the other one

I'm changing my signature so it won't bother anyone. Plus I'm only going to post it once in a thread I post in.

I just wish Rainman would do that. His siggy bugs me.
