Danqazmlp Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 Well in the other thread it was quite obvious we have one thing missing from signature rules, Text size and lines of text, and how many etc. It was obvious that mods will just use their judgement on what they deem appropriate at the time, but i think to stop further arguments happening, we could set clear rules for how many lines of text we can have in signatures, how many lines combined with an image etc. To sum up (i waffle on alot): Can we set some clear rules for how many lines of text we can have, size of text and text size combined with images etc. Want to be my friend?

tripsis Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 I would love to have an official rule. But the problem is how many lines of text do we allow? I mean you could say "Four lines of text in addition to an image with a height of 200 pixels." But then what about when people use larger or smaller text sizes? And what if their image isn't 200 pixels high? We could specify the amount of "pixels worth of text" you could have, but that would require moderators to take a ton of screenshots of every single signature that could potentially be oversized. While possible, it does get tedious. - 99 fletching | 99 thieving | 99 construction | 99 herblore | 99 smithing | 99 woodcutting - - 99 runecrafting - 99 prayer - 125 combat - 95 farming - - Blog - DeviantART - Book Reviews & Blog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

compfreak847 Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 Yep, just throwing it out there. The only problem is how that's measured; it can be skewed either way, but I'd go with bottom and top most pixel; leaving it open to interpretation is generally a bad idea.

obfuscator Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 I think overall pixel size would be the best route here. Just my opinion though ;) "It's not a rest for me, it's a rest for the weights." - Dom Mazzetti Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pryomancer Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 Please don't post profiles of users with potentially bad signatures. Instead just pm a moderator, or report it anyway, if the mod who gets the report thinks it's fine, they will just close it, you won't get banned or anything for false reporting.

compfreak847 Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 Honestly, if they're this much of a problem, why not? Yes, forcing the moderators to decide on a pixel limit is REALLY a drastic problem. Eliminate the signatures, lest the moderators have to pick a size! To the town square with torches, my friends! No. No. No. I use signatures to identify people, and it's a nice trademark to leave on a post. I associate different people's signatures with different levels of maturity, intelligence, and detail. It's also a great means of creative expression (tripsis), or communication your RS levels to people at a glance so they don't have to dig into the RS high scores every time they want to see your skills.

Danqazmlp Posted March 24, 2009 Author Share Posted March 24, 2009 It shouldn't matter who was making a fuss. It shows that there is a problem (albeit a small one) with the fine rules, a small change to the rules can save alot of hastle in the future. Want to be my friend?
