Guest Ikhnaton Posted August 6, 2001 Share Posted August 6, 2001 I've been noticing an awful lot of spam on this forum lately, spam of many different kinds. Because of this spam, I've had to implement the flood control--something I didn't want to do, but felt it was needed. Now I'm seeing other kinds of spam, taking the form of sig pics and whatnot. I'm sorry guys, I've seen too many useless sig testing threads and I see too many huge pics in people's sigs. Many of you can't seem to grasp the idea that less is better, especially in sig pics. I am now turning off the ability to use images in sigs. I'm sorry guys, especially those who have kept your sigs under control and/or small. But it only takes one rotten apple to spoil the bushel. When we upgrade to vBulletin, we'll have the Avatar option, and we'll work out a way for you to have a fair amount of flexibility with that. For now, you're going to have to make do with text only in your sigs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest S1DC Posted August 6, 2001 Share Posted August 6, 2001 hahahahhaha, and right after i change my sig from image based to text based... good timing. I fully agree with the new sig laws, as many peoples sigs were getting repetative *cough*Darksadshadowssickeningsig*cough* So thanks. ------------------ Saber One "I came, I saw, I Fragged."

Guest Ikhnaton Posted August 6, 2001 Share Posted August 6, 2001 sorry boys, if you can't use common sense, it will be forced upon you. I've also disabled HTML in this forum for the time being. Let's try to get back to meaningful discussion here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rogue15 Posted August 6, 2001 Share Posted August 6, 2001 ok...well, i would resize my at-at for use in an avatar, but i don't know how to change the size of it. It would be better to at lea**** allow 1 signature picture, and it mu**** be small (such as my at-at animated gif).

Guest Ikhnaton Posted August 6, 2001 Share Posted August 6, 2001 Rogue15, best not for a mod to argue with an admin like this, especially in an open forum. Please take your concerns to the private forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest S1DC Posted August 6, 2001 Share Posted August 6, 2001 Can someone PLEASE fix that censor problem? Besides, we have Mods to edit "bad" popsts, don't we? We don't often get idiots in here anyways, and they are swifty dealt with anyways. ------------------ Saber One "I came, I saw, I Fragged."

Guest Ikhnaton Posted August 6, 2001 Share Posted August 6, 2001 sorry again, boys and girls, but the UBB seems to have a bug that is not letting me not allow images in sigs. I've turned off the ability to use sigs for the time being. I know this kinda sucks, but let's just see if we can get by on having good coversation and meaningful posts instead of huge pics and sigs, mmkay?

Guest S1DC Posted August 6, 2001 Share Posted August 6, 2001 i think that the whole avatar thing is good. 70 by 70 should be as big as the ONE image on your sig gets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
