space saving

I hope that Im not opening a can of worms here , but here goes:
In the general discussion forum I noticed a thread about saving bandwith and starting a Part2 thread when it reaches so many kilobytes...Heres a suggestion, how about limiting some the amount of signatures to 1 or 2? As I scroll thru some of the threads I cant help but notice that some signatures by members are longer than their response to the thread. i.e. 3-4-5 signatures or quotes.
Just a thought, Cuz

I like that suggestion too. I really get peeved when someone creates a post that says something like, "Right on man" or just

. And then his tag lines go on and on for 15 lines. What a waste. One or 2 lines is sufficient.

Cuz-
I, too, am in complete agreement. It's just something that we wouldn't want to mandate. TFL's about personal responsibility.

Thanks for the observation, though.

a good one-liner should be enough. anything more is just not worth reading anymore.
