Hey guys, I'd like to know who removed my sig quote and why ? I've read the rules here and as far as I can tell I wasn't breaking any rules. Thanks in advance.

I see, thanks for your help.
Why are quote tags not allowed anyway ?

They tend to disrupt the flow of threads. In some cases, a quotathon for example, a signature can be misinterpreted as text flow. These can often be missed as it's not as annoying to the boards public than animated gifs are, but quotes can be mild disruptive influences.
