Signatures.
So question: So I've seen many users with extremely long (and sometimes obnoixous) signatures and yet everytime I make mine longer than 3 lines, I get nailed by a Mod? It doesn't really bother me but I was curious. I didn't know if there are exceptions or reasons behind it? Or maybe the Mods just hate me? *smile* Either way, no biggie. Just curious.
Cheers,
Linz

The mods don't often venture into the "retarded" sections of the forum (like word games), and consequently that's where most of the stupid teens with huge signatures post. So they don't get busted as much because mods don't see them and because they don't matter.

But what about you Hodge? Your signature is longer than 3 lines. They haven't said anything to you about it? ....it's a conspiracy. *sulk*

Nothing here. No idea why not. Maybe I'll get told now?

I thought I'd clarify that the limitation is four lines, not three. That's four lines of twelve point typewritten text, and if you have an image it should be no taller than that limitation. Personally, I take action on the violations I happen to notice and those which are pointed out to me.
That said ... Well, I've just now noticed a couple right here in this thread! If you guys would please do the honors, I'd be very appreciative.

Whoops. Didn't mean to become the big tattler but there you have it... 4 lines? Really... then the Mod who told me it was 3 was wrong?! HA! I KNEW YOU HAD FLAWS! BWAHAHAHAHA! Now I will use your supposed weakness to perpetuate the downfall of the hierarchy of Moderators! VENGEANCE WILL BE.... okay fine. *sulks*
Wow. Do not drink soda before 10am. WHOOOO!
