Proposed Forum Rule
« on: September 18, 2004, 08:54:00 AM »
Am I alone when I say those images everyone twelve year old and his mother seems to have in his sig these days, you know, the ones with someone holding up a little sign "omg i know ur IP/ISP im a haxer."  It just gets so annoying, you'd think a technical based forum would discourage that sort of thing.  Who's with me?

I agree that it's kinda annoying... however it may be a little difficult to ban them.  I haven't really seen many of them lately.  Also, I think the effect of the image is lost on most people who don't even realize what the information is that is being displayed.

Moving to Compliments / Suggestions Forum.

Anyway...how long has there been a suggestions forum?  huh.gif

Erm...  more than a year and a half, I wasn't here before that.

As far as those sigs, if you find them that annoying, I believe they're basically hosted from one site, you could always just block the site in your hosts file.  They have died down in number though, luckilly.
