Make our forum like every other forum in the known world. It seems to me that signatures are pointless, considering all they do is attract some attention, and take up alot of space.

+, they increase the loading time of a page containing signatures... Pictures have to be loaded too you know.
And, it IS possible to have a signature, but then you'd have to manually add it after every post. Noone takes the time to do so though.
There should be signatures (but only text ones as I believe was already said) ____________________ | __|| __ || _ | | | |_ | |_| || |_| | |__ |___||_____||_____|____| My awesome signature to awesome games (In case you can't read it it says COOL)
Woah...(edit would be nice here) it should look like ____________________ | __|| __ || _ | | | |_ | |_| || |_| | |__ |___||_____||_____|____| (if it doesn't turn out just do copy and paste into notepad and you'll see it
I'm new here, I've just realized there was a sign up button >_<
On topic tho, coming from big forums, far more advanced then the one i see here, which include Signatures of all sizes (restricted, and limited to 3 signatures or 500 characters long) the loading time is quite acceptable, with a forum like this, you won't notice a difference in loading times, if images are saved in PNG. also, they cut any extra loading time by half. Signatures, are attractive, and can be great for people who want to dress there posts up, there is also a choice on some forums to Check the box each time you post to include your signature
Couldn't we always add the 'simple-style' and 'full-experience' feature that some forums have? For people who don't want the forums to load slower on their computer they can just choose the simplified option that doesn't have signatures. However, those people that want their posts all fancied up and want to see other peoples signatures can go for the full experience.
There would need to be a "show no signatures" button. My iPod couldn't handle it >.<
I'm all for image signatures, except for when 2 people in a thread start back2backing. Then it would be annoying as he'll unless they have the common sense to not put it on every post. There would need to be a button next to the text box saying "attach my signature" or something.
