it's my sig. don't you like it?

Looks like spam ?

[scottburn38]

geez.. ok, i'll just change it.

[malfunkshun]

is that against the rules, to put ads in your sig? and why would that matter anyway if somebody did put an ad it their sig as long as it wasn't a gazillion by a gazillion pixels?

[onewecallgod]

is that against the rules, to put ads in your sig?

it's not against the rules, but it is very suspicious when a new member puts advertisements for completely unrelated commercial services in their sig. we've been having a huge problem with spam within the past few days.

forgive me for still not being completely satiated with that answer, but what exactly do you mean by 'suspicious'? more to the point, how does an ad in your sig make you suspect, and of what is the said person suspected of? it seems pretty clear to me that an advertisement in someone's sig is a straightforward method of making it clear that said person either has services being offered for a price, is trying to sell merchandise for a price, or possibly is trying to draw attention to something that is of interest to that person.

at other sites that i frequent, i have seen people put ads in their sigs for stuff like consoles that they have for sale, digicams, graphics cards, whatnot. why, in my sig at the site where i mod, i even have a link embedded that takes you to another gaming site that i spend a lot of time at.

edit: oh yeah, so whats the big deal with ads in the sig? you mentioned problems with spam. is a sig considered spam if it has an ad in it?
