Food for thought.
Agreed... so obnoxious. I wish there was the ability to block certain user's signatures instead of all of them.

I don't see what's obnoxious about it, its got links to his websites and a speed test.. though I really dont see the point in the speed test graphic.. but to each their own.

It's obnoxious because it could be condensed and spaced on one or two lines. I could understand the speedtest report in the signature if this was dslr.

BigJohn has an annoying signature as well, possibly the most annoying signature on this forum. BigJohn has 7 links in his signature, twisted only has 5 but one huge speedtest image.

Personally, this looks better:

[ Twist3d.net ] [ My Gallery ] [ Bor3d.net ] [ Myspace ] [ My Flickr ] Yep I got FAST Internet!!

As for BigJohn;

Well I guess it doesn't matter considering I just skip over everything he has to say every time I see that obnoxious signature.

I still question the value of signatures.

While we're pondering the value of signatures... can I make a really annoying one in protest?

Well, if you're a member of several forums, and google indexes those forums and something something increase google ranking things whatnot randomtalk.

It's a way to advertise and show creativity? Not that I really click on people's links, but I do like it when people have neat quotes.

I mean no offense at all - it's just that
having
to
scroll
a
lot
is
really
annoying
especially
when
the
annoying
text
could
simply
be
placed
in
one
line
instead.

The idea in a forum should be to show more posts and less signatures, especially if the posts are usually short.
