Default This is the first forum that has forced me to...

... block all signatures.

There are several individuals with huge looping gif images.
That type of image is incredibly obnoxious, since it forces people (like me) to hide all sigs and miss out on legitimately amusing/clever ones.

I would hope that the mods would be on top of this issue... but apparently they aren't.
Block huge looping gif images please.

I feel this was a bit of a push poll, but I still voted yes.

Animated GIFs in signatures results in me spinning my mouse's scroll wheel an extra one or two times. Probably not a big deal.

I have a general forum rule I live by.

If their signature is larger than their posts, anything in that post gets ignored.

This includes my own posts, by the way. Just in case you want to call me a kettle or a pot or something.

This forum forced me to download Opera Mini. Only site I've been to in the 18 months I've had it that crashes the default browser on my EVO.

Not that I was going to mention it, but yeah.

Voted yes. One of the first things I did was disable sig and avatars.

Browser crashes? I don't have any problems at all.

I've had more than a few chuckles at some of the gifs...positives outweigh negatives imho.
