    I use signatures as a way to further identify the posters. It's kind of a "oh, it's that member posting" thing.

    But if a topic is worth my reading, it's worth my reading every post.

    I'm cooler than Yams any day And Yammie said he would change my name but I can't decide what to change it to... *^_^*sUpErBunnNi3z4eva*~~~^_^*? ...haha, kidding XD Maybe.

    Anyway I definitely notice people with the more recognizable sigs... sometimes I don't really look at who's posting what, and the sig helps me recognize people more I change my sig way too often though, but I like to think that I have awesome sigs >=D

    When I read things using the Simplified Style at work, I don't see anything but the username to tell you all apart, so I don't have that problem. Avatars, custom titles and sigs are disabled in that style.

    At home, where I use EoFF Classic, I don't think I've ever had that problem, although I do find myself not noticing who the post is by. I still read it, just don't often pay attention to who it is that said it.

    I pay more attention to avitars/usernames, but I typically read everything anyways

    If there is a chance that I interested in a thread, I read every post in it. However, as I learn more and more about certain people, I do start to skim their posts, finding them not worth their salt to bother reading. Also, if you use a colored text and different font type, I am likely to ignore your replies altogether. I would not skip anyone's post until I feel that a poster has lost brain function altogether.

    Also, people with signatures tend to be more recognized than people without. It helps their post stand out a bit more and if it is an attractive signature, it will draw one's attention to it. However, if you are changing your signature every day or week, people are not likely to associate you with one image for identification; the more static your signature, the more likely you are to be recognized as a person scrolls down a thread.

    Avatars, too, can do the same, but because EoFF offers such a wide variety of default ones, many members use similar or same avatars, so people are less likely to know each other by avatars unless it is wholly unique.

    I identify people by their usernames. It saves confusion.

    Except when they get it changed and you have to guess who they are now!

    I think my sig is very identifying.

    I find myself usually attracted to the posts of people who don't have sigs as the posts naturally look shorter and simpler, even though they might not be so I'm quite the n00b.

    Capisce.

    I just don't feel like moderating signatures. Gives me some excuse, at least.

    "Oh, I didn't know I had sigs turned off, Leeza. Must have been that last forum upgrade. It messed with my options."
