    Err anyone that can read, knows that Champions Elect wrote that, not you because the post is just above mine! You are just confusing yourself on this one.

    Post the signatureat the time that I infracted you so and I'll tell you again if it was too big. All of it.

    Can I ask why I've been given an infraction for a post made on the 10th and this thread was made on the 11th? A simple "Please check the signature rules" would have done the job. I had a sig for months the same size on here, and nothing has been said of it. I make a post on the 10th and I get an infraction after a thread is made telling people to change them on the 11th? Am I missing something here?

    Nearly everyone was getting infractions last night Ron, the size of the sig rules has always been in the forum rules but until last night hadn't really been inforced.

    This thread was just made on the 11th because of all the moaning and uproar that happened last night.....well....still seems to be happening.

    OK.. but like I said it wasn't a problem when I made my last posts, 2 days ago, but a day later when I get zero warning for not being online, I suddenly get an infraction for it? How does that work?

    It's like someone eating a cake on monday and suddenly on tuesday cakes become illegal, so they get punished for eating the cake on the monday.. Like I said, I may be missing something so please point me in the right direction to what I've missed. Otherwise the infraction was unjust.

    To be fair to the mods, the sig size limit of 300x100 has always been in the forum rules, it just seems like nobody was too strict about it

    That's all I'm asking, is to be pointed to the thread where it says that. I'm wodnering what I've missed. My sig wasn't over the top like some others and I certainly hate sigs which are stupidly big for no reason at all, which is why I kept mine to a reasonable size.

    EDIT, nm,i found it myself. my sig was 53.4kb and wasnt hosted on this server. I think giving people such little time to change them (i.e i hadn't logged on since it changed) is the only problem I have.

    Tbh, it's true that the normal file size in graphics forums is 500x200px, but that is understandable as the whole site is basically dedicated to sigs.

    However, this is a Celtic based forum and graphics aren't a necessity - they aren't needed at all. Actually, considering all of the * some people are doing about something that doesn't even matter, you're lucky the admins haven't even banned sigs altogether.

    It'll be in the terms & conditions you agreed to when you registered... which you should have read like... er, everybody else did :)56:)

    I believe there may also be a "FORUM RULES" thread somewhere (probably stickied)

    An infraction is a warning over just removing the signature and banning the user for x amount of days. A warning is only used for new members in certain scenarios.

    You are regulars, you should know the rules well by now.

    And yes Dazza is 100% correct in what he is saying. you get a PM about the rules, there are announcements in every forum displaying the rules, there is a sticky in this forum.

    It is your responsibility to read and understand the rules. If you dont understand or need clarification, you post in this forum.
