HTML Forums [2]

Shamousey a dit :

It's yet another thing for sentinels to deal with, a lot of people have useless signatures that take up lots of space on the page unnecessarily whereas right now the forum is what it's meant to be-

I understand that the dealing with obnoxious and/or inappropriate is a bit of a tassle but to the large signature thing the forum devolper (whoever that is, guessing Tig) would most likely be able to set the dimensions allowed for the signature just like how everyone's forum avatar is the same size. I Just enjoy forum signatures since it gives you something to remember the forum poster by. But I completely understand what you're trying to say.

As someone who works on CFM I can confirm that signatures can be a pain in the side for staff. It's an area where you run the risk someone placing something inappropriate in it, or it's large, et cetera. I normally have to notify three to five people a day that their signature is oversized or some other problem and CFM's community is small when compared to this community.
The forum will honestly be better off without it heh.

And I can't find a good use for sigs, seriously :p
The profile page can replace it without the problems that Haru said and without appearing in every post

That can help to stop large images from being used, although people can always find ways around it, and there's plenty of other ways that people can abuse their signature space.

It's the wonderful Narayan who's been developing these new forums.

I don't remember people for their signatures when I see them post on forums, nor do I remember them for their avatar (which can be pretty iconic and an alternative to a signature). I remember people because they say something interesting that grabs my attention, which at heart is what I believe a forum should be based around.

Not that I'm against forum signatures, I browse plenty of forums that have them, use them myself, and see plenty of good uses for them all the time.

There's always the option of prohibiting images from being placed into signatures. Can still have a signature, it's just less cluttered.

#426

If they find problems during beta I suppose they will :X

#434

The best thing about the new forums is the advanced search.
