Can we get the sig rules posted?

NAND NOR

A Secret Messenger ...
I was sifting around and noticed that the only place the sig rules are really listed are in JFC's signature. It would be nice if they were stickied up top across forums like the general rules. The rules post Faiz made only says "stay within the signature guidelines" ... well, what the heck are those?

The only thread for it is in the site updates and announcements section ... which I doubt many people actually spend time in. Would it be possible to include the sig guidelines along with the rest? Would be a lot easier to find that way.

Speaking of the rules. The rules about name changes need to be updated to reflect the new money policy.

No kidding. I already mentioned that.

What I'm suggesting is that they are included with the rest of the rules, or that thread be stickied across the forums. The idea being that they will be more easily seen. I seriously doubt that many people spend time in that section of the forum.

As I said the rules post just says "Follow the sig rules"

It's a drag when I have to spend a bunch of time searching around the forum to find something that should be listed along with the other rules.

I dont see why they should be stickied in other forums. Its not hard to find them.

Because it's something that would be simple to do and any other forum I visit that has sig guidelines does the same. It makes everyone's life easier.
 
Wouldn't it be better to just have a link to the sig rules, and/ or a brief summary of them, on the page where people edit their signature? Dunno if it's allowed with vBulletin, but that'd be where people will be most likely to see it, right?
 
yar~

yea so waaay off topic (probably cause Im afraid to make a thread XD)

so, down the line, will HJU ever let members have two sigs, instead of one?

If by that, you mean "Will HJU ever let members have multiple banners in their Sigs so that they can have posts where their Sigs take up 3 times as much space as their actual post like how they are in other forums?"...then no.

People come to forums like HJU to participate in online discussions, NOT to look at Sigs. Think of where the name "Sig" comes from. It's meant to be something relatively short and simple to characterize/identify it as being yours.

The term "Sig" comes from "Signature", like when you write your name at the end of a letter. Now think about that, when you write a letter and you come to the end (where you have the "Yours Truly" part), do you write your name in such obnoxiously HUGE letters that it takes up more paper than the actual letter itself? Of course not, because that would look AND be stupid. Your forum posts should be treated/regarded in the same way; it's what you say in your posts that are important.



EDIT:Incidentally, while it's on my mind, and before I head off to bed, just an FYI to all HJU members: Do NOT be surprised if a change occurs here in the future regarding Sig banners/images in Sigs and how members will be able/allowed to put them in their Sigs. These changes wouldn't be too drastic if/when they occur, but if/when they happen the size of someone's Sig banner/image will NOT be something the Staff will have to worry about monitoring.

Hell, I might even be able to change my Sig.
