.sig netiquette...some people are taking liberties...........


Recommended Posts

not mentioning any names but c'mon people, some your .sigs are a getting a little out of hand.........one Twilo fan just posted something and his/her .sig is now as big as the screen!?!?! At least if someone glances at my screen in my open plan office and the board is mainly text, it doesn't warrant a 2nd look, but a whole screen full of bold and graphics? .sig is a SIGNATURE

lol OK enuff being serious, it is friday afternoon after all! biggrin.gif

glad I'm not alone, I wonder if the culprit I referred will raise his/her hand!?!?

I'm likening it more along the lines of consideration thing, from divalicious's perspecitve, i.e hogging bandwidth (thank god we've got DSL in the orifice), or from my perspective, where a 'screenful signature' just screams ANDREW'S NOT WORKING lol

yeah SHUGABOOGA'S NOT WORKING EITHER!!! i agree with you and have even considered starting a thread about this very topic, but you just can't stop people from expressing themselves creatively in a medium like this, ya know?

You guys missed a memo about this... peeps complained and they stopped letting us having our sigs... agreed, some of the sigs take way too much space, but I want my sig damit...

Mine is small, so don't be complaining about mine.

andrew, you are on point with this one... no matter how much or little drug content, the graphics are a dead giveaway. But, then, 'freedom of expression' is always going to be the default argument when there is no rational purpose to somthing that takes up between 10% and 40% of an 800x600 screen.

It may be art, but it may also be very difficult for those who must dial up to access the board. Freedom of expression is not absolute, in case the constitution-thumpers have forgotten. Words, images, or actions that may cause harm to another, or might serve to deny another of his constitutional rights are not allowable. And if surfing the CNYC board without getting in trouble at work, crashing the computer, or taking bloody forever to load is a right, then have some consideration for those you are trampling.

It's all about thinking of the other guy. Anyone remember that cliche, PLUR?

Etiquette is not about infringing upon a person's rights, it's about being polite. Of course, "as an American", you probably don't know much about that.

Thank you Chris, rarely has a more eloquent argument been presented on this board.....and if u don't like trotting out a cliche like PLUR how about calling it consideration lol
