Sig limits now?

[6spdcoupe]

When did this happen?

1. Your signature can not be longer than 200 characters including BBCode markup.

2. Your signature contains too many lines and must be shortened. You may only have up to 4 line(s).

I noticed it a few days ago. I'm all for smaller sigs, doesn't bother me at all.

[kimokalihi]

Actually I believe it's 100 characters because I just tried making one the other day and it bitched because it was over 4 lines(6 but in the smallest print)and it was over 100 characters long which is nothing really.

Really pissed me off. Had to abreviate everything, totally lame. But I do agree there should be some sort of space limit because it really pisses me off to see a super long page with posts that are less than a sentence long and signatures that are way too big.

But the sig I made was just using up all the wasted space below the post anyways, it wasn't going to make my posts any bigger.

Why can't I change my signature?

Some people have ridiculously long sigs including all their equipment on each line, plus stuff they are selling and their life history.

I think 100 chars and 4 lines should be plenty. I might increase it a bit, but it's definitely not going back to the old limits.

[kimokalihi]

How about 200 with 6 lines but only allow size 1 font! lol. Probably not possible but oh well.

My image shrank, which is good. I better not add a second car or equipment

100 characters is going to be tough when some folks try to update their sigs, 200 would be nice. Was there a limit before now, it must have been well over 600 characters? Heck, my sig, though I rarely displayed it was 461 characters.

Here was my old sig...

'99 Acura Integra GS
currently playing: iva-w200, tua-t020xm, cha-s624, 30gb iPod, blackbird w/dock, 450/4, kfc-p603
currently on deck: pxa-h701, pce-216, rce-216, 500/1, 10w7, mrmarv enclosure
soon to be cut: kfc-p603 (old), pce-216 (never used), rce-216 (lightly used)
free agent wants: pdx amps, ideas for mids and tweets, a car audio buddy
for sale by owner: two jl audio sub enclosures, ask for details

and my new one will follow this post.

My monitor has about 10 inches of forum-viewing space, assuming a non-maximized window. Four lines of sig take up about an inch. At ordinarily three posts per window, nearly 1/3 of the screen is taken up by endlessly redunant information. Do you say, "Hello, my name is J.R. 'Bob' Dobbs, I grew up in Dayton and spend a lot of money on green and gold argyle socks," _every_ time you speak up to someone else? Very little on the screen is actual content/conversation. God forbid those forums that allow a bunch of graphics in a sig!

If it were up to me, there'd be no sigs at all.

Bob Dobbs........ He Sed it

[dawgdan]

sigh.. I just killed the old sig, which unfortunately had a link to my fiberglass tutorial that I had gotten many compliments on. Oh well.

I has a system diagram.
