Title: Users who sign their post Post by: twister on February 23, 2015, 08:14:36 AM I see some people sign their post and was just wondering why they feel the need to do that?
It annoys me just-a-wee-bit :D I mean what's the point? Would anyone really think that this post was not made by me if I don't sign it? Title: Re: Users who sign their post Post by: Lethn on February 23, 2015, 08:17:25 AM Maybe they do it just to annoy oversensitive people like you? ;D
signed sincerely, Lethn Title: Re: Users who sign their post Post by: twister on February 23, 2015, 08:28:59 AM Maybe they do it just to annoy oversensitive people like you? ;D ;D I am not oversensitive.signed sincerely, Lethn Tell the truth, doesn't it bothers you even a little? Title: Re: Users who sign their post Post by: krasaan02 on February 23, 2015, 08:32:34 AM Are you talking about Muhammed Zakir and Madness ?
Don't take it serious mate, it's just their own style. Title: Re: Users who sign their post Post by: Lethn on February 23, 2015, 08:33:06 AM Maybe they do it just to annoy oversensitive people like you? ;D ;D I am not oversensitive.signed sincerely, Lethn Tell the truth, doesn't it bothers you even a little? Meh, a bit, but everyone has annoying posting habits and stuff they do which bothers me :P Title: Re: Users who sign their post Post by: Blazr on February 23, 2015, 08:34:32 AM I don't get it either. Isn't this what the signature area is supposed to be used for? it must be annoying typing out that signature every time.
Title: Re: Users who sign their post Post by: croato on February 23, 2015, 08:39:23 AM Guess they do that to post looks more official lol. Sure it looks funny but dont bothers me.
Title: Re: Users who sign their post Post by: neoneros on February 23, 2015, 08:48:44 AM I don't get it either. Isn't this what the signature area is supposed to be used for? it must be annoying typing out that signature every time. But what is the use of a signature area if all of the author info is allready available. I think the name should be changed to something else, it is not a signature, it is pretty useless even. Other than signature campaigns or spamming you own site :) Title: Re: Users who sign their post Post by: hilariousandco on February 23, 2015, 09:24:40 AM It is unnecessary and redundant really.
I don't get it either. Isn't this what the signature area is supposed to be used for? it must be annoying typing out that signature every time. I don't really know why they do it either but must just be their 'thing', as annoying as you may or may not find it (though I agree it must be a hassle to write or copy and paste it with every post). Title: Re: Users who sign their post Post by: twister on February 24, 2015, 09:02:36 AM Guess they do that to post looks more official lol. Sure it looks funny but dont bothers me. Yeah, I guess I just have to learn to not pay attention to certain things. goosefraba Title: Re: Users who sign their post Post by: verwalter on February 24, 2015, 06:06:39 PM I really dont know why people do this you already have your username by the side

I've long wondered this as well, but never looked for others opinions or researched it.
And yea, it annoys me just a bit as well lol. Title: Re: Users who sign their post Post by: gentlemand on February 24, 2015, 07:41:39 PM Yes. It gets on my nerves. I've seen it on plenty of other forums too where every single post has been signed for years on end. I assume they immediately kill themselves if they forget to do it one dark day.

Title: Re: Users who sign their post Post by: Neonecrox13 on February 24, 2015, 09:18:52 PM Wait til you get hacked. You'll sign every post you do then. I'm going to from now on once I get in my Coinbase account. Believe me you don't need to do it all the time, but every now and then you should. This way everyone will know it was at least you at this point in time. Take my advice, with the rise of stolen accounts, you won't regret it.

And I get hacked, but the hacker will just take couple of minutes to study your old posts and copy that. So, an hacker would just copy the fact you sign your posts.

If the original account holder did not post BTC address or PGP key then there is no association in existence.
