im very pro sig.. i don't see the point in being anti sig.. whats the big deal? we're all in the same industry.. we've all got something to share.. i think it's great to know what people have to offer without having to start some thread asking about it..
do the sigs really somehow detract from the viewing pleasure of a "rate my poo thread"?
sure i understand when it comes to RSI inducing half page sigs.. that can become annoying.. but it helps fuel the board to be what it is without heaps of spammy threads... i'd rather sig ads than constant spam threads.. as long as everyone abides by the rules lens has set out..
i think people are way too sensitive about a few goddamn buttons

If people would keep it under control, I would agree.
But there's always idiots out there who try to weasel around the rules, or who think their signature is a full page ad or something. When you limit the size of the button, they start adding too much text. Limit the amount of text, they start coloring their text like a goddamn coloring book. Limit the color of the text, they'll try and find some other way around it.
It just gets annoying seeing people who can't just slap a button and two catchy lines of text in their sig and call it a day.
