Poll question: Should the mods crack down on big sig pics?
Its against DU rules to have large sig pics. Having four or more sig pics falls into the same category. The rule doesn't appear to be enforced too often. Should it be?

1. I had to go with the flying fuckists...
Few have really bad ones unless we're at war with each other.

3. I'd like to see them go
simply because as it stands now, I can read about one or two posts per screen. I'd like to read more without having to scroll constantly.

22. does size matter?
I think the rules say in terms of file size, but display size isn't always related. I could have smiley bitmap thats a meg in file size or a 10kb pic that takes up a whole screen.

I like hummer-sized sigs... although the mpgs suck.

25. have you called him up at 2am to tell him
...that you're in a room with drunk DUers?

Ok..maybe that doesn't actually endear a person to someone. But I do feel closer to him now. I heard his "I'm trying not to let on that you just woke me up" voice. :P

17. Not without turning off ALL sig lines.
You can't just turn off the pics.

16. Can you turn big pics off without
having to miss out on actual sig lines? Nope. I guess that's why the rule exists.

24. Just did it.....
Can't believe how much faster this old dial-up loads big threads now. I really didn't even notice anything missing :dunce:

I do enjoy the pictures and sig lines, but not all the time when I'm just trying to catch up reading :)
