ATTN: Restricting Spamming in ALSB and other clans!

Avatar · 10-08-2001, 12:51 PM

This is a message of importance from Avatar. To lower the spamming in Ironworks:
If you have a large sig like me or Tiamat. This is what I propose we do:
In one off long posts we are very entitled to sigs.
But in short skirmishes (like me against Neb) sigs are unecessary as everyone knows who you are....
please limit spamming in ALSB temples as I'll get by *** liberally kicked by Ziroc!

I agree with Avatar, and previously I made that same decision in my adventures with my companions. They know who I am, and I will not use my signature in the story we are running. That will help speed up the thread and make it easier to access...etc...you get the picture.

Also, in some threads I have seen a continuing one-liner phrase that has no business being posted.
Things like "hey! That was cool!", (followed by a 30 Gig. signature

)

Also, if you are making a response to someone, then remember that you should have included one more sentence or question...why not utilize the EDIT option?
There is more danger of you being called out by name from the moderators if you post three one-line sentences to make one complete comment.
EDIT is there for a reason...

You know what annoys me? When someone posts one or two lines followed by a sig that's almost as big as all the other posts in the thread combined.
