Ban "lockers" from EVERYWHERE.

[epicelite]

Can we ban people advertising "lockers invites1!1one111!1!!1!" in their sig, or anywhere?

Sereously.

 

[mthrnite]

Is my sig ok?

No, it's against the forum rules due to size. Pick one, delete the other.

Hey, mthrnite. I was just listening to your song (the one in your sig.) It's great. Love the tune! The name suits the song well.

Funny how the only people complaining about the filter is the people with it in their Signatures :|

I really don't get how fussy kittens relates to "fussy kittens"... In all honesty, I normally just glance over sigs anyways. The posts are more important...

Guess I'll take down my sig now if it hasn't been taken down yet...

Lockers is just...bull...sugar

I got like 120 points and EVERYTHING is ALWAYS "More Soon"

Then I'll go ahead and complain about the filter. It's silly and should be removed. We have moderators on this site. We don't need no stinkin' robots.

edit: Thanks Revolutionize, more to come!

Maybe that's because they're the only people who care about Locker.z.

I just realized something... Those of us with an invite site could just link to it without having to mention "fussy kittens" at all... I think this is just getting kind of stupid now. There's no way to cover every single possible way people are going to try to get invites from here.

I care just a little about "it", but not a lot.

I think your making it sound harder than it is to implement a rule against it mthrnite, I mean there is a rule against mentioning rom sites all you have to do is ban people talking about they kind of sites. I will make my point again if the users spam us with ads, why do gbatemp not do it to make more money for the server? It doesn't make any sense.

gbatemp always state they will always be ad free for it's members yet they allow their members to spam each other with ads that they are against?

t's not like fussy kittens logos burn your eyeballs out or anything

It ruins the quality of the site! members start making short posts then they mention lockers on purpose to hide the fact that they are doing it.

This post was sponsored by Snickers! get some nuts!

The problem here is what could be and should be considered an ad. Lockerz could be banned under the "no begging" forum rule, but then where does that end? If you've written a guide to wii hacking and want to promote it, do it in your sig. Sigs are for promotion, either self promotion i.e.: THIS IS ME!, or promotion of a cause (breast cancer awareness? BANNED!), or anything else that isn't strictly advertising GBAtemp, all would be banned. I personally don't want to do away with sigs. I think this is a small problem that is getting blown out of proportion by the counter-trend of HATING LOCKERZ.

You are completely correct about the short posts "just so they can see my sig" thing, but that's what we have moderators and report buttons for.

My initial point remains, that to single out one venture means to single out all ventures, and personally anyway, I'm not against ventures in sigs.

Lockerz will go away soon enough and be replaced by something else, it's the nature of MLM. At that point, I'm sure we'll be having this discussion again, only about MYPONYPOINTS.COM or something.

..and just to be clear. Staff has already had a discussion and made a decision about Lockerz, and come to the decision that it is allowed in sigs and profiles only. All dissent from this decision will be duly noted of course, but for now, you're stuck with it, it isn't against the rules.

Lockerz

 

[zuron7]

We are doing what youre doing.
You sell things in your siggy and don't let us put a fussy kittens word.
Ok i'll take it out.

vv how's my sig?

 

[Jakob95]

It shouldn't be removed from our Sig.

 

[Law]

We should ban everything but solid blocks of colour with a border from signatures.

 

[Minox]

As far as I'm considered I'm tired of all mentions of Lockerz in normal posts, sigs I do not care about so let the obsessed people keep their obsessions there.

Yeah, let's ban 99.999% of GBATemps Signatures! This will speed up the Forum

(This post is also a test to see if I removed that Kitty from my Sig...)
