I'm seeing more and more signatures in the subject lines lately. What's up with this?
Signatures, signatures everywhere!
Well, let's be honest, most people just put "0" in it to remove the subject line, or forget to put anything there at all.
It's certainly less annoying and more personalized than putting it at the bottom of your post. I don't think it impacts the post's size all too much, either!
I really dont mind it, I dont think anyone really uses it as a subject for their post anways. Some signature even have some fun stories behind them, and it is a lot less intrusive than having a giant image at the bottom of every post.
I'm not complaining about it. I was just wondering whether this is a new fad (for our forums) and why it's popular.
I guess I should have one since Draycos gave out the secret.
Yeah, I thought that was kind of one of the "hidden rules of Spiral Knights forums", you don't tell people how to remove the subject line...
I used to think putting stuff into the subject line was kinda messy (probably just because of the formatting though), and I always hated how it automatically took on the first few words of the post. But yeah, it is a lot neater than putting stuff at the end of your post. And people don't always read it, so it's not a good idea to put anything important in there.
Next thing you know Draycos tells everyone about "+1", we will never hear the end of that one.
what do you want, I recently finished bastion.
and I loved it.
I feel you made this thread to tempt me to start using my Signature again. My answer: No, These forums are too polluted, only worthy threads get my signature. But that's just me #Yolol
I'm not that evil.
Why do I need to go in your treehouse when I could just stare at it and shout at you from atop your house?
My signature has the word cheese somewhere in there. I rarely leave the subject line empty.
It's a secret to no one.
Then why did you explain how to do it if we all already know how to do it?
Well, you know these forums, someone probably started a trend.
Draycos said, "it's a secret no no one" maybe because he was referencing The Legend of Zelda. Either that or i have no idea. Although the line in zelda is, "it's a secret to everybody
I usually just put a . or an @ in the subject line personally.
It used to be DERP or -_- or [Darust]?
I need a COOLER one! D:
Because it isn't a secret (in my opinion), just information.
Think "science textbooks".
lol. Alt symbols are fun.
BUT!
Signatures are against ToS.
edit: nvm. its pasting images. So there is a way to paste images on Forums. (now....whats that HTML tag?)
Well, you can't really put an Image on a Post, but you can Link one.
Replace these "(,)" with these "<,>".
(a href="Link")Text(/a)
Another "secret" is that some people used to put links on the very last key of their message.
Is sauce the sneakiest way to make sauce?
As a side note, I'll just use this subject whenever I reply to you provided you're using that subject.
Maybe you could if one is oil based and one is water based or something..?
But that joke's old. Everyone knows that one.
Well... most everyone.
It's still funny to those who haven't read it though.
As a bonus, it will show up only for logged in people. Surprised people haven't used this forum exploit yet to link non-http/https stuff links. Add a &action=logout for added hilarity.
We're doing this by using the logout page to forward to a different url, and the url we forward to is a data uri which actually represents data we're linking and is decoded as the media we're viewing. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_URI_scheme
Now we wait for the eventual data uri signatures to appear...
Wow, after a while it finally did what was supposed to do... It was nice to be able to comment w/o being logged...
Isn't having signatures on each of your posts against the forum rules, or is that image signatures? :s
I always wonder how many $$ my signature would be worth, 2 cents at a time o.O
Lot of wasted money that I can tell, always throwing money at my screen!
What's a signature?
