    Clean GFY the FUCK up: Ban all sigs.

    I've had sigs ignored forever, great feature, but with the recent 150+ posts-per-day sig whores this week, enough is enough.

    Tired of sigs, sig whores, sig drama, sig abusing sponsor contests, sig everything.

        Sig whoring is a business. Believe it or not, a lot of these people sig whoring are outsourced laborers posting to give programs exposure.

            I actually like sigs, first of all I recognize the posts of people I want to read by their sigs and second of all sometimes I find useful links in sigs

                      Who is posting 150+ a day?

                      Did I miss any troll?
                      I'm just a newbie.

                                What the fuck did I say? "I've had sigs ignored forever" = Already turned off in my profile. READ. Another problem with GFY, lol, no one READS before posting...

                                And sicone, my sig is a PIC, not a click through. Whole different ballgame. No one is paying me for "x" amount of worthless posts that pollute the board to have this pic in it. It's there so people can recognize the poster more easily. Take your meds.

                                  True... the sig whore vs new sig whore drama's entertainment value is beginning to wear off.

                                        Wrong. Turning off sigs has nothing to do with idiots posting thousands of worthless bumps, one-line responses, and general distractions, as has been the case this week.

                                        And if you actually read my original post in this thread, it says that I turned off sigs ages ago. Read FIRST people, I know this is hard, but stay with me.

                                              That's why I edited my post. I actually agree with you to an extent... the sig drama is getting out of hand... established sig guys versus new sig guys and "call out" threads. Basically pots calling kettles black. It used to be entertaining... not anymore. Maybe people are feeling threatened cuz instead of being able to charge 25 cents a post, the outsourced price per post is way way lower so they feel threatened?

                                                544 post in a year and he's tired of sigs...

                                                See sig BTW

                                                544 in a year? Try 375 in just two days as three asshat sig whores have accomplished just this week alone. Where do we draw the line?

I actually agree with you to an extent... the sig drama is getting out of hand... established sig guys versus new sig guys and "call out" threads. Basically pots calling kettles black. It used to be entertaining... not anymore. Maybe people are feeling threatened cuz instead of being able to charge 25 cents a post, the outsourced price per post is way way lower so they feel threatened?
                                                          No question. The people speaking up most vocally in a negative way, including personal attacks, are the ones driving a significant portion of their monthly income simply from spamming a message board. That alone speaks volumes to the issue.

                                                          It's one thing in say CD_Smith's case, where he runs contests (trivia questions for prizes), helps new webmasters maximize their revenue with personal help, and is a genuine BENEFIT to a sponsor on GFY. He's a perfect example of how in a perfect world, sponsored sigs would be an asset.

                                                          But for every CD_Smith there are ten jackasses here posting "thumbs up" in every thread simply to qualify for some idiotic sponsor prize. That's the real issue.

                                                            That's a good idea. Maybe even 30 chars.

The sig guys are just trying to make a living. If it wasn't such a big deal to have your company banner flying in every thread, it wouldn't matter. But most people go with a company they've see a million times. Company Branding. Though it seems to have backfired on one company here recently.

The people speaking up most vocally in a negative way, including personal attacks, are the ones driving a significant portion of their monthly income simply from spamming a message board. That alone speaks volumes to the issue.

                                                                                      It's one thing in say CD_Smith's case, where he runs contests (trivia questions for prizes), helps new webmasters maximize their revenue with personal help, and is a genuine BENEFIT to a sponsor on GFY. He's a perfect example of how in a perfect world, sponsored sigs would be an asset.

                                                                                      But for every CD_Smith there are ten jackasses here posting "thumbs up" in every thread simply to qualify for some idiotic sponsor prize. That's the real issue.
                                                                                      CD Smith's threads are great. Maybe there should be an ISO type of thing people can agree on? So if people comply with the quality standards they agree not to bash 'sig whores'?
