best signatures

Stickymayhem · Thu Jul 08, 2021 6:21 pm

i noticed my signature again and decided it's a very nice concise but thorough encapsulation of what i think i am and thought that's neat

then i thought who has the best signature and whether your signature is better than mine

i used to subscribe to the slam a bunch of quotes in spoilers method of saving the best quotes

fuck i already remembered crag has the best signature with the crag was right meme but with that in mind anyone who's copycatted that has an extremely cringe signature only crag is allowed to do that

talk about signatures FUCK

holy fuck i cant believe signatures like that still exist that's some museum worthy shit

looking at that signature put me back in the early 2000s

Gigapuddi420 · Thu Jul 08, 2021 8:08 pm

terranaut's sig > Sticky's sig because it's more minimalist. I only see signatures when I'm logged out anyway but fuck huge sigs are the worst.

Still, I rate your sig more then my own Sticky, I'd say it's above average for this forum. Some choice quotes and no scroll bar. Near perfect.

While I agree that terranauts signature is punchier it loses value over multiple viewings. Such a minimal amount of content is well chosen for a single scroll but over time fades into the background too quickly.

I like my signature but that's because it's my signature.
I really wish wubli's whole quote was smaller so that it'd be a bit easier to look at quickly, but it is what it is

vekter's pissy shitties comment was funny though

Legoscape's old signature with the "The legoscape story" was good, too bad it's not preserved anywhere.

Super Aggro Crag · Thu Jul 08, 2021 10:03 pm

the best signatures are the ones that quote me saying something funny that i forgot I said so when I see it again I can lol and say "haha i'm great"

denton and omega_darkpotato have pretty good ones

I find my own signature to be incredibly tasteful

Sniffing glue doesn't make you better at ss13, but ss13 does make you better at sniffing glue.

I was gonna say that I thought we could all agree that scrolling signature is an instant F, but I see already that would be controversial, wouldn't it

Fishimun · Post by **Fishimun** » Fri Jul 09, 2021 4:05 am #606238

Scrolling signature is an F maybe i'd give it pass if you could fit the entire gravel post in the signature

Post by **Misdoubtful** » Fri Jul 09, 2021 4:20 am #606240

I used to just do little graphic art doodles to make my own or had others to but that was another time and age.

Stickymayhem · Fri Jul 09, 2021 4:28 pm

the real question is do our posts come from signature or signurture

Fri Jul 09, 2021 5:04 pm

all of my posts are carefully made in a factory where they extrude the funny smooth brain goop from my head into a mold of my next post
there is no nature its just pink slime in text form

I’m a big fan of signatures that quote me. Ambivalent about the rest, although if you need a spoiler or have to scroll it’s probably bad.

i think spoiling scrolling sigs are fine since you pretty much read someone's signature once it ends up making a smaller sig than one without scrolling or spoilers

XivilaiAnaxes · Fri Jul 09, 2021 11:31 pm

Mine gives me a chuckle when I notice it

Sat Jul 10, 2021 1:08 am

ive got a mental fog that automatically ignores signatures 99% of the time though i do occasionally use my adblock extension to filter out the more obnoxious images that some of them have. when i do remember they exist they are generally good for a cheap laugh. i might as well remove the feedback link from my sig because i dont think it has ever been clicked once since 2019

Agree with sticky it's cringe - it's like one of those WE'RE GAMERS DONT MESS WITH US joker posts just awful

Removing just that would get rid of the scrollbar for me so maybe sticky is working class after all and can't afford a big screen

Tarchonvaagh · Mon Jul 12, 2021 2:04 pm

I'm going to remove it in order to appeal to the the small screen people and you can't stop me

fuck you seriously when I see you post I think my god the jannie has come from the grave, looking at you warning me about my microwave gun pisses me off, you are a limiter to my autism.

In short, fuck you.

What's the point of a signature?
What are you supposed to be signing?
Like, a signature is to show that you're the one writing the post. But that's already shown by your name. So is it just kinda like a "catch phrase" or "this is me" kinda thing?

cacogen · Post by **cacogen** » Tue Jul 13, 2021 3:55 am #606846

It's like "im cool and you should like me heres why"

it's just one of the many holdovers from the olden days of forum boards, customizability usually was there for many different reasons, from showing off clan tags to having a bunch of image buttons for your various proto social media profiles

This is an extremely confident signature, of course a me quote is going to be popular with me but taking someone's salty dunk attempt and turning it into your signature is top tier reverse uno-ing

we are kindred spirits

Even more so than any other platform you have basically no indication of what a person is like on a forum. The signature gives you an idea of what they like, what they find funny and how cringe they are without having to ask them

For example, if you see anyone with their OC character in their signature (other than literally just a "I am X in game") you know to avoid them or be drawn into a three hour barrp about their tragic backstory

I want you to know I genuinely wrote that last post without reading your signature and then scrolled back up and it's just spot on

he should add this to his signature too

Super Aggro Crag · Tue Jul 13, 2021 11:42 am

Another way to know whether someone is cringe or not is to see if they triplepost within 3 minutes on the forum instead of just editing their first post
