I don't mind them being disabled. I've been on a ton of forum sites where people load them full of images that take a bit of time to process.

Forum signatures were temporary disabled to prevent abuse from spammers.

Forum signatures have been re-enabled as of today.

I'm not quite sure why, but my last reply to this thread showed "Re: RANDOM thought for the day." as the subject line. I went in and corrected that with a quick edit.

I'm not actually seeing any signatures displayed yet. I guess people haven't set any up yet. I didn't see any option to switch the display on or off in my control panel, though I haven't set up a signature either.

Thanks Trimax :D


Hi Sanfung, the subject title was different because the topic was moved from the RANDOM thought of the day. Many new users won't have set up a signature.

Well, I certainly feel like a dork for not having realized that my post was moved. I'll certainly have to get working on my signature soon. Thanks Trimax :D By the way, I assume that avatars have also been disabled? I did a quick search through the "About the Website" board archives, and it seemed like there were problems with them in the past.

Please forgive me for asking all of these newbie questions. I don't mean to tie you up at all.

Yes, Sanfung avatars are not enabled.

Feel free to ask as many question as you require.
