support our troops is a good point though. even things that promote one side can be at the expense of another. getting offended by someone supporting their national defense is different than a sig that says nuke israel.

This is why I think the only fair thing to do is all or none.

I think people know when their sigs are in good taste and wouldn't object to changing it if they got a PM from another member.

But I think that people with offensive sigs tend to be a bit less reasonable and more biased, and most likely less will to be agreeable. If they care so much about a particular issue that they'd make a sig about it, they're pretty secure on the issue and most likely unwilling to give up any ground. I'm not saying no one would, but I'm saying quite a few wouldn't.

I agree. Signatures kept small can serve the same purpose as an avatar, but i've already seen several rather obnoxious ones.

Why not small restricted avatars for identification and no sigs?

Beautiful. You essentially say people shouldn't be upset by sigs earlier, then you say you have ignored people because of their religious ones, all while displaying the avatar you've adopted?


I hope double posts aren't a no-no.

Dude, what's up with bumping the old stuff?
And you're on this avatar kick still.

Doh!

Apologies, all.

I keep forgetting to check the dates after finding threads using search and i happen to belong to forums where posting in old threads on a topic is preferred to beginning new ones. I was looking for threads about rules regarding avatars (which i noted there are none of) and sig size.

Will try to watch dates in future.
