Signature change

[Wit]

At some point, this weekend, SEORefugee is going to implement new Signature rules.

Basically we want to put up a (small) threshold for sigs, in an effort to discourage people signing up for the free links alone.

The signatures for new members have always been automatically 'nofollowed' anyway, but later this weekend people will have to earn the right to add a sig.

This "earning" is not going to be some Sisyphean task, but it will take a bit of time and effort nonetheless.

Alas, we cannot avoid new members losing their current signature in the process. We hope you'll stick around long enough to add them back

The change has been made.

Please report all anomalies right here, and I will try and sort them out as soon as I can.

For your information: it will take more than just a week and a good number of posts to get the signature rights.

Yes. Fix it by meditation will I. And talking like Yoda.

How many postings should be made before having a forum sig...

[Wit]

It's not post-count-related, core8284

But thanks for searching and finding the right thread to ask about it

Yeah you need to stand in a field on one leg, singing I should be so lucky by Kylie Minogue, while juggling plates on both index fingers.

It should be filmed and uploaded to youtube for inspection by the mods.

Oki dokie..thanks a lot WIT..Cheers!.

[jabo]

so what are the conditions again to get sigs? a certain amount of good posts and certain time (days or weeks) participating with out sigs?

[Wit]

Yep. And rep

So posting a gazillion crap posts won't do any good.
But being helpful, nice and non-spammy will lead to rep at some point.
