You don't get to use your own image, the forums automatically generate one that looks similar to everyone else's and is a fixed size. Its total height is less than that of your current sig. Not only that, you can hide them along with avatars if you want.


I understand exactly how it would work. I remember what the experiment banners looked like from a few months ago. I've seen the WoW banners. It still doesn't change the fact that it's still a waste of space. Just because it won't be as annoying as it is on other sites doesn't mean it's a good idea.


Are you against the use of colors in posts too?

I don't understand how someone can not want other people to have the ability to have small signiture images if it won't even affect them. (How the hell is it even going to be annoying?)

That's like me crying that that person giving blowjobs for political reasons in Belgium shouldn't be alowed to do that when it doesn't affect me at all.

It's because Illia plays WOW so we're not important. So no sigs because we don't play the right game...

It's not like that one bit, maaan! We just don't got what it takes to do dat kinda shiit, maaan!

You gotta find yer inner self before you can find yer sig. Maan, I remember this one time I found my inner self. I looked like that guy from that one show so I left.

If I have to look at it, then it yes it does affect me.

This is something I'm glad to hear. I love the site, but hate the idea of sig banners. If I can turn them off, then go nuts, let people toss in whatever ugly pic they feel best represents them. I won't have look at it, so everyone can be happy.

I know you've picked up on this fact now that you've read it from pikko, but please in the future try to pay little more attention to what you're responding to :/

They don't get to pick! Crimeny I don't know how many times it must be said...

It is generated by THIS SITE, and uniform with the others, it's relatively small and takes up less space than most people's text signatures.

My opinion is that if its available for one game forum it should be for all of them. Yes, even EQ, EQ2, DAoC, LoTR, EVE, SWG, and whatever else I forgot.

I hear RMT use that game to recruit. Then they make them kill puppies and thats why they're so uncaring to real players. I even heard of one legendary RMT who killed his puppy by eating it alive! Smiley: jawdrop

This is just a pet peeve of mine, but the job levels before the job abbreviations annoys me. That's not how they are in the game, and it's not how levels are traditionally written in other games either.

There are also some pixels around the character portraits left from whatever background they used to have.

I'm sure it "can't be changed" or whatever, but I thought I'd point it out.

o_oa eh? Try hitting <job> next time you're in game. It reads as Level Job/Level Job. So the way Pikko has it is correct as per how it's displayed in game.

Character level before character job/class is pretty common.

A level 6 Mage, for instance.
