Suggestion to change of Forum Etiquette Policy

I want to punch someone every time I see people with large text and/or animated signatures.

Can we make a policy similar to the policy of the Penny Arcade forum? There are policies similar to this on other servers, in fact most servers don't even allow most HTML tags and limited number of characters so people can't abuse the etiquette rules.

Why.

 

I like my signature

 

Maybe I should make mine bigger as an act of rebellion to this...
Honestly, I don't see the problem. If you don't like it, can't you ignore that person?
EDIT: DONE

 

I don't want to look at people insulting me to my face on the forums, but SOMEHOW I deal. I'd imagine your eyes can stand a few pictures over and over.

 

You shouldn't stand for someone insulting you to your face on the forums.
Similarly we should be kind to each other and not spam one another with stupid walls of images / text.

 

Sorry that I'm only in high school and can't see the issue with everything I post like you all manage to.

I can respect that, but I still don't see why I can't retaliate when you can. If I asked people to be nice on the forums I'd end up banned.

 

There is no reason why you shouldn't be able to defend yourself civilly without being banned.
Don't "retaliate", retort instead. Maybe it's the way you retaliate?
Maybe it's the 3 giant ass pictures in your signature that makes people not take your opinion seriously?

 

Nobody's ever taken me seriously, why try to change that. Last time I did that I almost got permanently banned.

 

Don't have a goofy signature, be civil to people, don't troll, then people will take you seriously.
Don't be serious, have a goofy signature, be uncivil to people, troll, and yes people will not take you seriously.

It's really that simple.

 

I'm not going to change myself as a person so that you will accept me, not a chance. I guess I instigated something, and I'm sorry for that, but that's it.

I meant to suggest this a while ago, but I guess it slipped my mind. The way you guys are reacting to this is almost as annoying as the signatures that take up half of my screen. Granted my signature is relatively large Nothing close to those that I'm referring to, though.

 

While not a proper solution, I've been using this chrome extension to block images in signatures. Definately cleans up threads a lot

 

Moose, you're my hero. Never again will I ever have to look at any disgusting avatars (cough you know who you are cough). Except, I used the adblockplus "block element" button to remove it. Success!

 

i do agree with the smaller sig but cant we have it at 600 by 100
