I have seen many revolutions in many forums before for many different things. But I have not seen one for one of the most important topics of the minecraft forums, the signature limitations.
I have a server, a YouTube channel, a WIP Mod and a WIP texture pack and I have to decide which to put in my signature. Forget about supporting other mods. The signature limitations are ridiculous. 2 lines, 1 url, 1 image. My reaction when I read that is:
:mellow.gif: :huh.gif: :blink.gif:
What? That is incredibly small! So, for the sake of all the people who want to support more mods/suggestions/texture packs or have more than one project, post here! This revolution must be done!
Basically, if you want bigger signature restriction, post here saying you support!
The reason it's like that is so the signature isn't larger than the post. The Terraria forums had a problem with that so they limited. But I think they should allow more links, there are tons of stuff that I support and I'd like to include in my signature.
+1 support.

It would still load in though. If the signature limit was introduced to reduce page load times then the fact that the old forum sigs scrolled doesn't matter.
For the record I support no limits on signatures. I find it to be a fascinating way personalize your posts.

For the record if I correct you it's not meant maliciously, but if you whine about it I AM laughing at you.

I'm pretty sure long sigs wont vastly decrease performance, as it never did in the old forums. And I agree, I never had a long sig, but I know people like to include mods they like, servers they like, suggestions they like, uh...anything else they like.

You'd be surprised how much slower it can make pages load if everyone is using high resolution photos in their signatures.

It was mainly because the new software needs a lot more data flow, which means if people had large signatures, the increase from the old software to the new would be far more than double.
A signature is just that. Not a place for advertisement, just a place to tell who you are. There's twitter, YouTube and many other places used for advertising. The sig limitations are not a problem

...dude, your own signature is disagreeing with yourself.
"not a place for advertisement", you are advertising the voxel box.
"place to tell who you are", doesn't tell much to me. sigs that tell me who they are have quotes in them.
not that I am agreeing with your statement,in fact, I disagree, just you are disagreeing with it to.

In the old forums, long sigs had scroll bars.

I guess so, I don't really know what causes slowly loading pages to load slowly, so...

or, here is a great limitation:
whatever you want, as long as it does not exceed the normal sig size (meaning a scrollbar appears). I personally whud think that is the best plan.

that last one was an Idea I thought of, but I couldn't see a way to articulate it properly.
i think they should really limit the file size only
