Greetings I think you'll find Impar is the man guilty of the opening message. I often have to restrain my self from signing posts S since thats how I sign informal emails that are often about the length of a forum post. What bugs me are system specs in sigs, sorry guys but high spec willy waving gets old. S
Yeah, but if I want to know what people have in their computer I'll ask them. But then I just hate sigs in general. Once I've seen it once I really don't want to see it at the end of every single one of their posts. The day you catch me with a signature is the day I give the mods full authoritah to break out the banhammer.
I don't mind people signing their name at all. It adds a personal touch, and I tend to know who the people that do it are, and notice their posts more, whereas many others are anonymous. Same goes for avatars, I recognise many people by avatars rather than forum names.
Same here. Seriously, why do people still do this? I don't really need to know how slow everyone's computer is compared to mine. -Silver51 ___________________ Case: it's all in a box next to Schrödinger's cat SU: Your Mum :Mobo: A Jacob's Cracker :CPU: Heisenberg’s random core processor @ a bazillionty squagglehertz :Memory: Yes :HDD: Post-it notes adhered to the populous of France :GPU: The Moon
Ahoy! I can see why people would have specs as a sig - functional when they need help. As for me I wouldn't have a sig but I can't be bothered to get rid of it. -Approved by Ramble
tbh, I've got my box in my sig on the offchance that I post somewhere about having issues, or if something works etc etc. Makes it easier than having people ask what my system is, if I forget to.
I don't see anything wrong with it. I'm not quite sure why people type out their name each time though, that's what the sig is for?
Specs in sigs is fine (I would say that). It's mostly useful for issues (mine is hardly worth e-peen swinging about), and as long as it's subtle it's very easy to just ignore. Adding needless bits into a post though: I can understand it getting fustrating. People say it's like a formal letter, but you wouldn't start a post: Dear Sir/Madam
Dear Slizza, Life's too short to get an aneurism about someone putting a hail and sig on their posts. Chillax. --My name is Nexxo, and I approve of this message.
I have always ended a post with my Name, on each of the forums i be a member off, just habbit i guess. Sam
My pet forum hate is people starting threads about things that there's no need to waste time getting annoyed about.
