Simon asked nicely not to use the letters for the reasons he stated so I've edited your post rather than remove it, so you can still claim the corner though.

That's okay, you can get the same effect on the bandwidth by going to a page onto which lots of moderators have replied, and repeatedly hitting CTRL-F5.

Neil Smalley

Be a bit dull though would'nt it

MarkO

If you've read any of my posts in the last 6 months you'll know exactly how bored I am.

dsmith

ROFLMAO

MarkO

And besides, as any of the really old school scoobynetters will remember, I've never had any qualms about stretching the bandwidth requirements of the board.

Neil Smalley

Just as well Simon does'nt use a 'pay as you' scheme for generating money for keeping scoobynet going is'nt it

Jeff Wiltshire

If the moderators are allowed to do the sig thing, what about the vendors that are supporting the whole idea by discounting items.....????

Jeff

Neil Smalley

Any Scoobynet plus card members can have a signature. Its just that at the moment the moderators are the only members. Wait a few days.

dsmith

Actually we have to assume Scobynet uses page hits for selling advertsing - if it used object hits, we'd be positively encouraging the muppets to abuse it...

Jeff Wiltshire

My point was that if the moderators are being thank (and no reason why they shouldn't be ....) surely something could be done for the vendors as well, for instances having PLUS Vendor rather than PLUS Member....

Just a thought


Jeff

MarkO

What next - PLUS muppets?

Jeff Wiltshire

Only for you .....

Mr evolution

So if someone gets a 'plus' card do they HAVE to have the crappy gay signature thingy.

Jeff Wiltshire

Of course......

Neil Smalley

Mr Evo'

No you'll be able to change it to what you like(within reason), or get rid of it.

carl

What about the thing on the left? Will you be able to get rid of that?

Might be interested in being a plus member, but I'd rather register another username than have that 'medallion man' logo under my name

ex-webby

OK... everyone calm down!!

The sig is going to go.. It is clear it's going to really irritate enough people to warrant the decision.

We will change to an avatar and the small plus member logo... possibly have the graphical text, but smaller, and keep it all in the left hand column.

Thanks for all the feedback, I've listened and it will be actioned.

When you sign up for ScoobyNetPlus, you get the option to assign your membership to your scoobynet profile. If you don't want to you don't have to.

Thanks again, please bare with me today, and possibly tomorrow until it can be removed.

All the best

Simon

Mr evolution

Perhaps all the moderators secretly want £300 zx's and capri's (still an upgrade from a scooby)

MarkO

Oi - getoff. If the images aren't hosted on Scoobynet, I'll post whatever I want!!! (check the URLs before being so quick, smartarse).

carl

Have you got all the letters on otway.com, or just the ones you needed to use....?

MarkO

All of 'em. Help yourself.

I'll be deleting 'em in a couple of days, though. After all, these bandwidth costs can get out of hand.

Oi - Neil deleted my post!

Ah well.

, .

ex-webby

guys... the bandwidth was the second reason I gave to why I would be grateful if you didn't post up the letters.

I want to point out the irony of a thread with complaints about how cluttered and difficult to read the signatures make the site look, with a decision that they would be removed followed by "corners" and the use of the graphics I had asked everyone not to abuse.

I deleted the post, not Neil.

Simon

Neil Smalley

MarkO Have you checked that Simon will let you nick his fonts ?

Looks like Simon's answered the question

[Edited by Neil Smalley - 10/14/2002 3:12:04 PM]

carl

What, the MicroGramma D Bold Extended font, the copyright for which is owned by the Nebiolo font foundry of Turin?

PS: I did the 'corner' thing before the decision to remove the signatures
