What happened to signatures?...mines gonzoooooo where?
What happened to signatures?
- Thread starter Mr. Robin Parsons
- Start date
In summary, the conversation was about changes to the signature and smilie options on the forums. It was mentioned that signatures may become a privilege for donators, and the scheme for smilies has changed. Some users expressed frustration with the changes and suggested using normal smilies instead. However, it was pointed out that disabling smilies is already an option and using normal smilies would not significantly impact the forums' performance. The conversation ended with some exaggerated reactions to the new changes.

Hit the 'post reply' button, you will find the smilies there :tongue:
As for the signatures, those will probably become a privilage for donators to the forums (you have to pry people in some way)..

At the rate people are asking for features they think should be included the forums would load 5 times slower and your options menu would be 10 times longer

Ehh, disabling smilies is already an option on the reply page. I'm sorry but I don't see how using normal smilies would slow the boards down or make the options menu any longer.

Ooooops is that slowed...erk elWhat happened to signatures?
Signatures are still used in various contexts, such as legal documents and email correspondence. However, with the rise of digital communication, physical signatures have become less common and have been largely replaced by electronic signatures.
Why are signatures becoming less common?
As mentioned, the increase in digital communication has led to a decrease in the use of physical signatures. This is due to the convenience and speed of electronic signatures, as well as the environmental impact of reducing paper waste.
Are electronic signatures legally binding?
Yes, in many countries, including the United States and most of Europe, electronic signatures are considered legally binding. However, there may be specific regulations and requirements for the use of electronic signatures in certain industries or for certain types of documents.
What are the benefits of using electronic signatures?
Electronic signatures offer a number of advantages over physical signatures, such as convenience, cost-effectiveness, and increased security. They also allow for faster document processing and storage, as well as the ability to easily track and verify signatures.
Are there any concerns or limitations with electronic signatures?
While electronic signatures are generally accepted as legally binding, there may be concerns about the authenticity of the signature or the security of the document. Additionally, some countries or organizations may still require physical signatures for certain documents or transactions.
