AJuff Posted October 1, 2010 Share Posted October 1, 2010 When I try to remove Darcy from my signature I get the following message - Your signature contains 442 characters. The maximum number of allowed characters is 400. If I am removing characters why do i get this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted October 1, 2010 Share Posted October 1, 2010 Looks like the character limit has been reduced?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoid Posted October 1, 2010 Share Posted October 1, 2010 It would be best to ask Christian, send him a PM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy chickens! Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 That happened to me too when I edited mine earlier this week - only allowed 10 'smilies' too. I think there was a mod posting earlier this year about only having small signatures with links etc, but didn't realise that would limit things so much!

I can understand the 2 discrete links thing, but why the change to a smaller character limit and only 10 smilies... Don't know if that is the case (mods?) but if it is ... controlling much?

Christian Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 Nothing to do with the Mods Lewis. We don't have access to change signature master settings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plum Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 Just be glad it's limiting characters and smilies not chickens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karlotta Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 How about we start a thread in which we can go to town listing our chooks and cubes/pics of set ups etc all in one post each. We could then pop a simple link in our signatures to the specific post in that thread... That way those of us with lots of detail to share can do so, but signatures get neater/smaller?

Lewis Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 I like sigs ... can see what people have really easily. Know what you mean about photos + stuff - what about a links to the gallery (top of the page) instead of everyone making a thread/post + linking to it? Think it brightens the page up a bit too, some other forums where people only have a couple of words can end up looking really boring with just a load of text! PM'd Matt to ask about the change but not had a reply yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy chickens! Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 I agree lwescott - I probably wouldn't click on a link very often, but I feel I know forum members better for seeing a little info on a signature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
