Nice one! You should totally use that for your sig. :-)
I have to admit, my sig is quite large, i will review it
shrugs…
I would strongly support a character or line limit for signatures. There are some prominent forum members who have obnoxiously large signatures full of images that are extremely distracting when reading threads, and I sincerely doubt they will remove them without moderator intervention. I also welcome the rules limiting political and religious topics. I don’t need bible quotes and gun ownership activism constantly in my face on a flashlight forum.
Thank you SB.
Yeah, let the offence takers rule the internet…
No, let’s not do that.
At least, not here too.
What is the policy on sigs containing dog whistles such as a single letter from the alphabet?
Signature? What signature? 
This post inspired me to add a sig to my posts; violating the law of Aristotle.
There’s a time and place for everything. This is a place for discussing flashlights, not plastering religious or political statements everywhere.
I think even having a thread/section devoted to discussions would be a poor choice, on the internet discussions like that rarely stay civil except in the most homogeneous communities.
The slippery slope is real. I’m not happy with this rule. It’s too heavy handed. Perhaps a better option would be to make it possible for the ‘offended’ to simply NOT SEE signatures at all, like the button that allows members to see a home page sans commercial posts.
But a signature is not a discussion.
Of course, if a signature attacks or flames people, it’s not acceptable.
Not sure what religious signature on BLF causes some people to get their panties in a twist, i only know of 1 religious (or rather theological) signature and it attacks or flames nobody.
Don’t you mind someone calling himself satan here? There’s at least 1 account with that name.
As for the gun control signature some of you may have in mind, it does not attack or flame people either.
(It’s not untrue either and it’s part of the US Constitution (and for good reasons), but that’s not important right now. 
)
Get over it. People disagree about many things.
Man this whole site has too many rules! Overbearing moderation and such! Lets go start our own forum. We can call it economylightforum.com or something
You laugh, but that’s exactly why a few of the flashlight forums got their start, including THIS one, IIRC.
How do you find the time to be offended about these things when we have members who prefer 6000K tints w/ micro-usb charging built in? I can barely sleep at night knowing I share an online space with these members.
Dont you dis integrated USB charging man. 
Don’t you know that Internet is ruled by the Freedom Country ? Bible quotes are universal man, get over it or they’ll teach you to run faster than bullets !
Yeehaw !
That’s already been made available. You know how to find this stuff. You just need to know the magic word: “uncluttering”

That’s rather like one of the high points of the Usenet pre-WWW, the “killfile” — a tool that made it it the responsibility of the irritated to choose not to see whatever set them off.
“Doctor, I can’t help but flame when I see X”
“Then stop seeing X”
Not yet.
SB requests us to take note of the rules and decide ourselves.
Hmmm… That could be handy for when you’re on a smart phone too.
Save some much needed screen space.
I’m not sure which signatures on BLF trigger the ‘offended’.
But as long as they’re not attacking or flaming people, i don’t think it’s justified to deem it inappropriate.
But then still, there are limits to what is acceptable.
Quoting John 3:16 would be over the limit i.m.o., because it can be taken as implying judgement over a large group of people (rather than salvation of a not so large group of people (although interpretations vary about the ultimate size of that group of people)
Quoting a bit of Biblical theology about Christ being the Light (and the darkness not comprehending it (depending on the translation)) does no such thing.
Your signature, Dave, can be considered problematic too by today’s ‘feelings over facts’ standards.
My posts here in this topic can be considered problematic too, i guess…
Crazy times.
