Could some of you please stop adding "signatures" to each and every one of your posts? Most of them: 1) are simply kitschy and annoying; and 2) aren't signatures at all. Thank you!

This restriction is only in place for new accounts, to prevent spam. I must admit, though, that I don't remember if it was a treshold of a certain post count or account age.

I think we had this in the past due to some ad server being looked up but not being responsive. Ads are what keeps the site running, but if it's not loading properly try an adblocker. Another option is to just hit the reload button, which will most likely cause a different ad to be loaded, without this issue.

I believe the restriction is only for 100 posts, although it might be 250.

The curious thing is: I haven't seen any ads on this site. (And no, I don't have any ad blocking software installed.)

On the forums there's an ad at the very top of the screen, or at least there is when I turn off my ad blocker.

Nope. None. Never.

It works.

The funny thing is that you could have said this literally ten years ago.
