Naniniwala ako na may magandang epekto itong signature ban sa forum, lalo na at mismong admin natin ang nagpatupad nito.
Napansin ko rin na minsan, dahil relaxed lang tayo sa pagpo-post, hindi na natin masyadong binibigyan ng effort ang kalidad ng mga post natin. Pero nitong mga nakaraang araw, parang marami-rami na rin ang nabigyan ng signature ban.
Naipaliwanag naman ni nutildah ang basis nito, kaya mayroon na tayong guide kung ano ang dapat nating gawin, lalo na kung ang mga post natin ay puro maikli, paulit-ulit, o hindi masyadong substantial.
Para sa akin, magandang sistema ito dahil hindi lang ito nakabase sa merits. Ang merits kasi ay puwedeng maapektuhan ng personal na bias o kung sino ang kakilala natin. Pero kapag mismong kalidad ng buong posting history ang sinusuri, mas patas at mas seryoso ang magiging epekto.
Malaking bagay ang signature ban para sa mga kumikita sa signature campaign, kaya mapipilitan talaga ang bawat isa na pagbutihin ang kanilang posts. Sa tingin ko, makakatulong ito para mabawasan ang spam, repetitive posts, at mga sagot na ginawa lang para makumpleto ang posting requirement.
Personal na opinyon ko lang ito. Ano ang tingin ninyo? Sang-ayon ba kayo sa signature ban? At ano pa ang nakikita ninyong maaaring maging positive effect nito sa forum sa kabuuan?
mag basehan..
I'm working on a demonstration that will answer a lot of questions. Its not easy to put together but I will have it done shortly.
A couple things worth pointing out now:
- Merit will not save you if your posts are for the most part unsubstantial and you write the same things in the same threads over and over again.
- You run the risk of being sigbanned again after your ban expires if you do not demonstrate marked improvement in your posts. Simply leaving the forum until the ban expires will no longer work.
I am currently picking the lowest-hanging fruit, and there's a lot of it. No offense meant to the affected, but that's whats going on.
It will take me a while, so there's not point in bringing up "but what about so and so" -- its simply impossible to address every type of spammer low-quality poster at the same time.

I have been issued a signature ban recently. I am not here to argue that my ban is right or wrong, instead, I just wanted to know what mistakes I have been making and what things I need to focus on that may improve my writing skills.
Thanks
There's a few major issues:
- you aren't getting many merits because your posts don't have much substance behind them; you're repeatedly making the same surface-level conversation
- the majority of your posts are deep in threads that don't (or no longer) encourage genuine discussion
- you're posting in the same few topics over and over again
Simply put, the majority of your posts are unnecessary. If you want your account status to improve, you'll need to radically change the way you post and what you post about. At the very least, you should attempt to write more engaging posts about topics you actually enjoy.
