Which is why i was suggesting being able to use the spoiler feature to display videos in signatures

I'm not even going to argue with you, if you were PM'd regarding a signature 3 pixels oversized, as Catzsy said you'd probably call moderation anal, so I guess there's no way of winning here. There's nothing wrong with the way signatures are moderated so I feel this conversation is somewhat pointless.

You still havent highlighted the need to have a youtube video in your signature in a spoiler...

Probably for the sake of having it there?
Whatever the argument is, I honestly hope it is never allowed.

And even if someone goes 1px over the limit, it shouldn't be allowed. Otherwise a super mod might think "meh, its only 3px" and then a different user might get a pm for just 1px.

Why do you pm when you could just report? :S KK, I don't see the point of putting a signature into a spoiler as they are for show aren't they?

But then you'd refer to the rules and say it clearly states the exact size you can use..

Is there any need to have images in peoples signatures? In fact, theres no need to have avatars, or any signature. I dont need to see your signature image, i mean, whats with all the extra space youve used?


@Rosie, I dont really care how i show my signature, if people want to click a spoiler then fine, they see whats behind it, if they dont, then thats there choice, and my fault for putting it in a spoiler

what difference does it make? Its slightly larger than an image, and it doesnt load the player until you click the spoiler

No not at all but reporting takes about 3/5 seconds and you are a busy man! :P :D

Youtube videos in signatures look extremely ugly. Something I dont want to see a lot tbh. You will now argue that some peoples signatures are ugly ...
I am guessing you use adblock plus? For those who do anyway, simply block the image :).

In my time in the moderation department, I haven't seen anybody treated injustly in regards to signatures or avatars. I think it's incredibly stupid arguing over the sake of a few pixels.

You are correct in saying there's no need for signatures or avatars, but it's nice to have a signature/avatar but I don't see why we'd need to allow larger signatures in spoilers, and I think in regards to loading times, this is quite a valid point, as if people have videos hidden in their signatures, it is going to increase them.

I just don't see any need for users to be able to post larger images/videos in a spoiler in their signature, I just don't get it :S

I have :P The avatar page said I was allowed a avatar sized larger than I really was :P So I put that sized avatar. I got a PM saying my avatar is too big. I provided screenshots of the page, the person agreed and asked the Admins to fix it. Still got a usernote for having a larger avatar when the person doing the settings messed up ...
