I'm very surprised there was no announcement or any sort of correspondence sent to members that the signature feature was going away. Ah well, maybe this will weed out all the sig flashers out there and will increase the quality of posts. Or will it? Dan_EZPZ 07-29-2007, 02:52 PM Has the premium member forum gone or been moved?? I can't seem to find it :eek: Cheers, Dan DominicQuick 07-29-2007, 02:53 PM Im having the same problem Dan. They must have buggered up :D csparks 07-29-2007, 03:00 PM I just went to do the same thing! Normally they let people know when they are going to do something like this. We will have to see what happens I suppose. TheWiseOne 07-29-2007, 03:02 PM Same here, I like it! Sooo many people post just to add in their signature. As much as I loved the extra hits, it's hardly a revenue stream for me :) <satire>It's ok, I can say everyone else at TekTonic can't see it either</satire> writespeak 07-29-2007, 03:06 PM ...or some sort of error? Yeah, that. It should be fixed shortly. :) Lois writespeak 07-29-2007, 03:07 PM Thanks for letting us know about the problem. We're working on fixing it. :) Lois seankoons 07-29-2007, 03:38 PM Yeah, that. It should be fixed shortly. :) Lois Take your time. The more I go through all the posts, I kind of like the fact that some providers actually have to shell out some cash now like the rest of us to advertise on WHT instead of relying on their signatures and one-liner posts to lure in customers. TheWiseOne 07-29-2007, 03:49 PM No cash needed, that's why there are the offers forums :) RossMAN 07-29-2007, 03:58 PM Like Sean said, please take your time. I kinda like this. Nick H 07-29-2007, 04:15 PM Thanks for letting us know about the problem. We're working on fixing it. :) Lois I want an SLA credit :D bear 07-29-2007, 04:34 PM This place gets more interesting every day. :wht: ATLDedicated 07-29-2007, 04:44 PM It looks like our custom user titles are also gone... :) ATLDedicated 07-29-2007, 05:03 PM Seem to be back up and running. writespeak 07-29-2007, 05:09 PM i was trying to edit my signature.... Sigs have been fixed. Sorry to disappoint some of you. :look: It looks like our custom user titles are also gone... :) Looks like the squirrels yanked them off the server. :mad: You should be able to recreate them now, though (the user titles, not the squirrels). Lois Outlaw Web Master 07-29-2007, 07:22 PM lmao.....I thought it was just me who noticed this but didn't want to make a butt out of myself for posting about it just in case. OWM Project X 07-29-2007, 07:50 PM Sigs have been fixed. Sorry to disappoint some of you. :look: Looks like the squirrels yanked them off the server. :mad: You should be able to recreate them now, though (the user titles, not the squirrels). Lois the signature is the only way i know most people here! Aussie Bob 07-29-2007, 08:02 PM Has there been a mod added whereby only 1 sig per poster will be displayed in a thread, where that poster makes multiple posts? Too much social tinkering me thinks. :erm: Aussie Bob 07-29-2007, 08:07 PM Yep, looks like it. I just checked a bunch of other threads, and only 1 sig displayed per thread per user. Seems a bit harsh. Could have opened this up for discussion before implementing such a restriction too. :S Christian 07-29-2007, 08:17 PM Mmm. I see two Aussie Bob signatures here. :eek: http://i15.tinypic.com/6b4moh4.png Aussie Bob 07-29-2007, 08:22 PM I must be going nuts, and it's only been 4 hours with no TV (http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?t=624029). :blush: I only see 1 sig per thread, per poster, and it's not just my posts. It's everyone's posts. It's not a bad concept actually, now that I think about it some more. Fair Dinkum 07-29-2007, 08:25 PM Maybe it is on a per forum basis? Bob, I see all of yours here. :) Martie 07-29-2007, 08:26 PM Thats strange AussieBob! I see all your sigs in this thread too. I wonder if this has something to do with this bug from earlier? http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?t=623975 Aussie Bob 07-29-2007, 08:26 PM Somehow I am blocked from seeing multiple sigs for the same user, in multiple posts per thread, yet you can see my multiple sigs per thread. This is wierd. :crazy: Martie 07-29-2007, 08:29 PM Somehow I am blocked from seeing multiple sigs for the same user, in multiple posts per thread, yet you can see my multiple sigs per thread. This is wierd. :crazy: Yep weird! I just looked and my custom title is back to the default so will see if I am able to change it back. Fixed it. :D Tyler 07-29-2007, 08:42 PM I saw two of your signatures at first Bob. I revisit this thread a bit later after new posts have been made, and now your second signature is gone! :eek2: It must be those pesky squirrels (http://www.forumuniversity.com/campus/showthread.php?t=344), now they're after signatures! the_pm 07-29-2007, 09:03 PM After a little investigation, it appears signatures are one per page, as opposed to one per thread. That's what I'm casually observing anyway. I didn't see that one coming, but I'm not bent out of shape over it. Maybe with enough tinkering, we can remove the signature spam rule? That one is always a bit tough to moderate (quite a bit of subjectivity to it). I'm in favor of the rule because it helps keep posters honest, but I'm even more in favor of technology that makes rule enforcement obsolete :) the_pm 07-29-2007, 09:03 PM This is my second post in this thread, and my signature is turned on. But will it display? Hmm... Edit: When I first posted it, I saw my signature (thanks to AJAX). When I refreshed the page, signature gone! When I view this post in the edit dialog, the signature button is checked. It looks like we have a new filter folks :) Jay August 07-29-2007, 09:04 PM Ah, those darn WHT squirrels again! But nevertheless, I noticed this too indeed when actually replying to an AussieBob post :) //EDIT darn too slow, two replies already, with one explaning the situation... ub3r 07-29-2007, 09:11 PM I got this email while I was at home today: Dear ub3r, TheBrigade has just tried to send you a private message.

SoftWareRevue 07-29-2007, 09:19 PM What's up?I'm going to merge your thread into the other one with the mysterious goings on. They're all related. Or were related. SoftWareRevue 07-29-2007, 09:22 PM I'd post in here, but too many of you have mentioned rodents that have terrorized me for over a year. :gone: Aussie Bob 07-29-2007, 09:32 PM Now my sigs are back. Whoever's tinkering, step away from the interwebs. :D Aussie Bob 07-29-2007, 09:35 PM . . . It looks like we have a new filter folks :) Them darned squirrels have hacked WHT! Squirrel Alert! Squirrel Alert! :eek2: ub3r 07-29-2007, 09:50 PM maybe it's a memory issue. bear 07-29-2007, 10:02 PM Durn squirrels had eaten my sig...had to redo it. Still the same old user title, though...dangit....:wht: :angel: anon-e-mouse 07-30-2007, 12:03 AM I don't see many sigs in this thread :banana: tsj5j 07-30-2007, 12:12 AM All these problems seem related...? My user title is gone... :P csparks 07-30-2007, 04:52 AM Well, i have no problem receiving pms, it appears people are liking to spam me. I already reported one yesterday, now it looks like I have to report another. DominicQuick 07-30-2007, 07:25 AM Well WHT has been going made recently with the following problems: 1 - Premium Forums Disappearing 2 - Not being able to post a for sale thing 3 - Signature Links not working Lucky:lovewht: im still here. Keep up the good works community leaders. :) Dom ;) bear 07-30-2007, 07:31 AM Truly strange. Some have sigs, some don't. Redid mine, it worked, then it was gone again. Makes life interesting. :D ..and it's back... [EDIT] And a few minutes later...gone again. :rolleyes: seankoons 07-30-2007, 05:02 PM Well, i have no problem receiving pms, it appears people are liking to spam me. I already reported one yesterday, now it looks like I have to report another. You get SPAM in your PM box? That's weird... I though my WHT PM-box was the one place that I did not have to deal with SPAM. Mr. Obvious 07-31-2007, 10:23 AM lol... now I got a problem :( I want to change mine, but now i keep getting the your signature is to long message (when I add i bbcode) when I remove the bbcode, its fine, but the bbcode is making it to long! *cries* Mxhub 07-31-2007, 10:33 AM This place gets more interesting every day. :wht: The title 'WHT addict' isn't given to anyone so easily. Nick is one, i know. :D |
