Man o man some of you guys have  L O N G signatures.
I just saw one guy who had 2 posts back to back, he typed a total of three lines of text and his two posts took up the whole blasted screen.
I bet nobody even reads most of the clever little blurbs at the bottom.
Post it here, who has the most annoyingly long signature?

HTC, please limit it so we get two lines at most of these players 'wisdom.'
Far too many, if not most, people on this Board post just to say something opposed to posting when they have something to say.

We're supposed to follow a 3 line limit.  That is what they set when they cracked down on long sigs a while back.  Lately sigs have been growing again.

You expect others to edit THEIR preferences, to keep from seeing those offending sigs?  How dare you suggest that!

Besides, what would we do all day at work if somebody didnt have something to get worked up over?

Do spaces between lines of text count as a line?  :eek:
and if you use text twice as small as the default size do you get to use 2 lines for each 1 line the default size would take up?
