Brief question about policy.

[The Man]

if it's really that torturous to spend a few extra seconds editing a .sig, I can whip up a script that'll automatically comment out a person's .sig and leave a prewritten message saying to fix it in about two minutes. Just say the word~

And as mentioned before, having an admin add <!-- --> immediately after a person's .sig in postbit and postbit_legacy will remove the problem of people not closing comment tags once and for all.

Ah, this takes me back.

apparently both are hard

I don't even care about my own case anymore, it's just for other people who aren't observant, because I can completely identify with them now. believe me, it's easy to think the sig warning rules are just some random crap that vB always says. It'd probably help make them more noticeable if you put them in solid red or something.

Get it right next time, Manny. Why be courteous to rule breakers? You waste a couple of minutes of our time, we can waste even more of your time as you go and recode everything. Hopefully this will encourage people to get it right the next time around so as to avoid having to recode their sig from scratch all over again.

I think we should all just laugh at Manny here because he's all uppity because we did the right thing and removed his rule-breaking sig. This seems like the logical thing to do.

You don't gotta tell me twice.

[DMKA]

Just remember kids: it's only spam/flamming/inappropriate if certain people do it.

[Loony BoB]

No, I'm 100% fine with anybody in these forums laughing at Manny. It's what we do on [insert appropriate letters]days.

because apparently, some people missed this.

But, you apparently missed this :

Because the rules are *still* easy to miss for absent-minded people like me:

[Leeza]

I'd go more for YELLOW rather than red because red makes my eyes blur, but I do agree with you on this point.
