View Full Version : Annoying Signatures

I think that Signatures should be limited a bit more so that there is no need to add an extra scroll bar (iframe) for the signature, or just make the space of signatures larger so no iframe is needed.

If you happened to be scrolling a page with a mouse, you are repeatedly stopped by these signatures as your mouse scrolls them before the rest of the page. Very annoying.

It's not that bad but its just a thought.

I just keep my mouse to the right of the screen. Seems to work well. Using the arrow and page up/page down keys work well too...

Just turn off all signatures. Useless forum feature that is on by default. This is more annoying on forums where signatures exceed post length by at least 10 to 1.

I agree. I use a scroll wheel on my mouse and am always getting caught up in the stupid signatures that scroll. Turning that feature off would be an improvement, IMHO. Turning off signatures might be a bit much. Many people have them and they can be fun. But, limiting their size would be beneficial.
