1 picture and 4 lines of text, or 8 lines of text w/ no picture. SOME FREQUENT POSTERS... have ridiculous novel like amounts of text AND a picture; it makes for longer load times of pages, and more scrolling. vote for smaller sig limits today!

to be honest, theres no need to quote a million insignificant lines, half of them arent even funny.

advice to fledgling archers:
Going sage is like drunken sex, at first she may look good, but when you wake up the next morning; you'll look at her and go WHAT HAVE I DONE.

    I agree.

    Also, testing siggy. Is that one line all I have for siggy?
    I was early taught to work as well as play,
    My life has been one long, happy holiday;
    Full of work and full of play-
    I dropped the worry on the way-
    And God was good to me everyday.

    Shouldn't this be in the suggestions forums?
    If you would please, allow me to interject with an interjection into your conversation which requires, an interjecting. For if I'm to understand correctly and correctly understand the present situation, which I may or may not understand correctly, then it seems that you all don't make sense at all.

    They are just looking for something to complain about. Images make a fraction of a second of download on broadband which almost everyone has. Text takes nothing to download. Almost no one plays MMO's on dial up.

    read your sig!

    @natassiya, i can lock up your internet with just spamming of the same word on one page, its called a DDoS attack.

    ie: if i posted the word spamspamspamspam thousands of times, the page would lock up on you.

    ngl, whenever I read a thread that you've posted a lot in, your sig tends to get in the way lol. It's not that big of a deal though.

    Yes, because text takes so long to load, not to mention those cell-phone sized pictures. Here's an idea, jump off of the dial-up and get real internet.

    Simply put, if your signature takes up more space than the rest of your post, it might be a little too big, don't you think?

    even though I have a sig file myself I would be quite fine if they just removed it completely. at least they limit the size of the pictures unlike another forum i go to often b:surrender

    Err... Yeah. First off I thought the sig size limit was small, and you're asking it to be reduced even more? I've actually seen smaller on some other forums, so I guess I gotta be thanful, hehe.

    Though I gotta agree, some posters go with wall-of-text sigs. They don't take time to load, just annoying - but it's something I can overlook.

    (Kinda off-topic, kinda... well mine seems to get the point across. The number of PMs asking me if I was German has dropped nicely, lol).

    Due to constant PMs: I'm not German, sorry folks D:
