Sounds like a bunch of Justin Bieber wannabes in here. I bet you all wear skinny jeans too.

Does it really matter, as long as the post is on-topic?

Burrito's thread was locked yesterday because of a little line saying 'Oh, and by the way, this is the 777,777th thread in the Halo 3 forum', despite the main point of the thread being something absolutely irrelevant, and 100% on-topic for the Halo 3 forum. So according to how that thread was handled, one line is enough to justify an entire reply. Thus signatures can technically be considered spam.

Personally, I don't mind them. I'm just pointing out that it could be counted as spam (And if it is, then Great Pretender is in deep -blam!-.)

That's not why it was locked, I'm almost positive. It had nothing to do with some sort of 'signature'. He said the Thread was locked before he could even refresh the page which doesn't even give the person who locked it time to read the bottom of the post.

Maybe the mod thought that that would derail the whole thread?

I don't think it hurts anybody, as long as they are sincere about it.

Take Logan for example,

~B.B.


He always signed his post. He did it because it was part of his personality and it he had no malintent when he did it. If fact because he signed his posts we'll know when we are reading his posts long after his account is auto-deleted.

Now, if people are signing their post with nonsense just for the lolz, then yes, I agree it is spam. Report it and we'll deal with it.

Don't turn this into a whinefest about that stupid thread. It was locked because it was a get. Which is spam. Stay on topic.

I'm using it as an example, feel free to snip that post if you think it's going to derail this thread.

I don't understand I though we had no rights and had to play nice. So we can use signatures?
