User has 5 lines of text. Only 4 allowed.
Sig contains text and an image (not sure if this is allowed)
User is also pimping for money.

It's 600 * 100 which is nearly double the allowed width.
Also he lists his homepage as the page he's advertising. If he wants to advertise his own site then he should pay for advertising like everyone else.

But you do admit it's breaking the sig rules by having an image that is nearly twice the allowed size?

Thats the problem with having sigpo run by all users. If there was a SigPo moderator or superuser that had the decision to make decisions like that it would make matters easier. Or have a poll system for on the edge images and situations like this where the boards userbase votes on it and decides wether it stays or goes? Just two ideas that might work?

I've been arguing for Signature mod for a while...would take the hassle away from the supermods/admin.

Oh, sorry. I read your post as saying boardsie isn't a commercial site. The other way makes MUCH more sense =p

i think the top four posters in this topic should be sigmod, and to take into account that some of us do be on boards everyday.

Indeed. Although it would be a nice thing to happen I can't imagine it being possible to do.

But it's worth someone sticking a new thread up on Feedback about this topic of sigmods either way.

By my reckoning, it requires admin/supermod access rights to start messing wth someones profile. Right?

i think it can be possible, but requires a lot of trust tbh.
i think its possible to create a usergroup that allows the moding of user sigs.
ill check.

I'm guessing that the problem would lie in the fact that the full profile would have to be viewable to the sig editor.

However, is there a problem with the way this is working so far?

well it's just a little bit convoluted. You're doing a great job but you seem to be the only one who looks in here with any regularity....

plus there is the issue of getting dissed for reporting offending signatures.:D
