I find "signatures" to be distracting and clutter. Many forum administrators disable that option and even have a rule against creating a macro that adds a signature to circumvent the code.

I'd venture to guess that most people here never gave signatures a second thought, because their experience with this forum has always included them.

But for people who frequent fora that forbid signatures, it's pretty distracting.

The administrators here are trying something new. It hasn't even been in effect for 48 hours yet, and it isn't breaking anything.

I'm amused, and bemused, by this overall fear of change by this forum's membership.
