Thank you PM sent.

BTW first post updated because of the new signature rules.
They are basicly the signature rules as we were already used them, but now it has been officially changed in the TOS.

aidan196 has a video in his signature.

Signatures can contain banners, pictures, userbars or text. Animated pictures or banners (.gif or .png) are allowed. Video’s (e.g. youtube) aren’t allowed in signatures.

Repaird, didin't see that when I read the ToS

[Newfoundking]

That's okay, you fixed the problem with no hassle, hey, even with a smile. Good job, you go on my list of favourite offenders

[swatlord]

Not meaning any offense but, wtf?

This topic was supposed to inform people on the TOS in regards to signatures, not to openly narc on other members.

CFDJustin has 4 banners. Not any more!

Was it bothering you guys THAT much that you had to publicly rat people out? What happened to honor and integrity? Try doing something like this in the real world and see how many friends that gets you, ESPECIALLY in a fire dept. If it really does bother you that much, PM the mods.

Seriously. I think this topic needs to be locked and any other questions or tattling can be handled through PM'ing.

wow buddy... do you realize that you are comparing real life to the life on a forum?

I understand your POV but I don't think this has anything to do with honor

[Newfoundking]

I don't think he does... People don't click in this is nothing like real life...

[swatlord]

Think what you want about me, my point is I don't think the people who are narcing on people realize that. Tell me, what's the point of publicly reporting people's sigs? Are they that much of an inconvenience to your life that you have to tell on them? Does telling on them get you "respect" with the members and, more "importantly", the mods in this forum?

Mods - if the answer to that is yes, then I'm in the wrong place.

And my second point is it's not gonna get you respect anywhere else.

I understand this forum is not life, but there are living people behind every post that is made here. And I also understand there's a considerable populace on this forum that are young, but that's still no excuse. This is 5 year old behavior.

I'm just tired of getting online and seeing everyone's true personality come out

This topic was about explaining the rules about this forums signature policy, not about turning on members and reporting every little thing. This causes hostility, flame wars, and more work for the mods

Does telling on them get you "respect" with the members and, more "importantly", the mods in this forum?

If they hope on that they can go on for long

And my second point is it's not gonna get you respect anywhere else.

Nowhere we said anything about respect

So you expect us moderators to search for each member abusing the TOS instead of having people just help us a hand? I don't know but reading the important parts of the TOS can't be that hard and for each normal thinking human on this earth it should be logic that a signature is a signature and not a video blog or a wallpaper spot

[swatlord]

So you expect us moderators to search for each member abusing the TOS instead of having people just help us a hand?

No, I don't. But I also don't expect and entire topic to be turned into a place to report people. That's what the REPORT button is for. If someone has a problem with a signature, all they have to do is:
A: use the report feature
B: contact the user and advise them to take a look at their signature
Or C: Contact a mod via PM and discuss it with them

If I'm wrong, I would suggest not hiding warning levels anymore. Even put in big bold letters how many warnings they've recieved, who (if anyone) reported them, who warned them, and a detailed description of why they were warned. That sounds to be right up the alley of what this topic has turned into.

[Newfoundking]

Quite frankly, it's none of your business what member has done what, and what punishment that they have received, who got them in trouble, and what moderator dealt the punishment..

If people wanna report other people in ten foot tall text, that's their thing. If you don't want to read it, then don't

[Stan]

Anyways there will be changes made to all this on the new version of the forum. So this won't be a point of discussion anymore

[Cosreski]

No, I don't. But I also don't expect and entire topic to be turned into a place to report people. That's what the REPORT button is for. If someone has a problem with a signature, all they have to do is:

He has a point about the report button. Best wish's.....

Since the ToS has been updated recently and the max is 500 by 180 pixels, with he max size being 450 kb. - Is this any different from before the rules were changed?

[Forensics]

Is the 500 by 180 pixels if you have 1 banner or 2?
EDIT: After re-reading the rules, does it mean 500 by 180 pixels in total?
