The amount of vulturing in that forum section is completely repulsive. A person will post something, and 10 hosts will post the EXACT same thing, all just to get their signatures into a thread of someone looking foir a host.
I know SigSpam was made against the rules, but there are too many lowclass hosts who do everything in their power to get around it.
Since that is the most common forum section for people to ask for hosting help, why not just disable signatures entirely in that section. Allow WHT members to answer peoples questions for real, and not just troll for customers.
Example- Someone asks for WebHosting referrals. Does more than one person need to say "Use FindAHost at the top"? Once someone says that, and the next 5 people say that and nothing else, it's obvious they are just vultures.
And yes, I am aware that certain hosters will take offense to my posting this. Just remember, if you are doing it, then you have nothing to lose by it. If you're offended, then maybe the truth hits too close to home.
