You need more posts!

If you have 30 posts AND have registered for 30 days, you can give yourself a custom title and a custom non-animated avatar.

ohh.. okay.. that sounds fair...
Give me a few days, and I will be up and passing your 5.500 posts, like a busy little bee with a rocket-engine in my ...

And thanks by the way

 

[ComradeDavo]

No problem

 

[Officer Reene]

man that sux...

but rules are rules..

so posting here we go....

 

[taper]

Consider yourselves lucky. When I joined you needed 300 posts to get a custom avatar.

Just a reminder: Spam is also against the rules.

We will delete spam posts, therefore lowering your postcount, particularly if it is obvious you are spamming for PC.

(the custom avatar is on not really worth it then...)

Reene reckon your sig might be too long tbh, gonna have to change it.

 

[Padma]

Don't give up on posting, just don't spam! Make your posts at least reasonably meaningful.

And yes, that sig is about twice as long as allowed....

 

[BCLG100]

what is the longest sig that anyones had? Cos that one is fairly large.

what is the longest sig that anyones had? Cos that one is fairly large.

The minimum allowed length of a sig is five lines of normal text. I know this because a while back I had mine longer and a mod sent me a PM telling me to shorten it. It was also the first PM I had ever received and it sat in my message box for two days before I even realised that I had one.

EDIT: Here is the official rule on the subject.

This forum has a signature feature that allows you to "sign" your posts with a customized block of text. The text may include links to other sites (as long as they are within the forum rules) and emoticons. No derogatory references to other members, spoiler tags, or quote tags are allowed in signatures. Signatures are limited to 5 lines of regular (size 2) text. Using smaller text (size 1) allows 7 lines of text. Larger text (size 3) allows 3 lines of text. No text size larger then size 3 should be used. The number of lines for any text size includes blank lines and room used by emoticons and is evaluated at 1024x768 resolution.

man you people are tyrants...

this is the first time I registered with a forum and come against such strict rules

I shortened it out a bit.... hopefully it is short enough (if its not I know I will be hearing about it)

man I regret even registering here...

(it was way better as a anon visitor)

 

[Ginger_Ale]

You can have five lines. You agreed to have fine lines in your sig when you registered because you agreed to the Forum Rules.

BTW, to answer the question of BCLG, the longest I've seen is 15 lines...

Mod whining also isn't allowed, just so you know...

very well
carry on

ok ok ok ok ok ok

I got it

 

[Thunderfall]

We probably have one of the lowest requirements for custom titles and custom avatars.

As for signature, 5 lines is a reasonable limit so we don't have extremely long sigs that are far longer than the posts.

, reene got more than halve his posts on this thread

I remember when I was a youngling, a newbie, way back in february last year. Its tough
