Personally I love to have sigs on forums, but it seems like no one is using them here. Why is that? I sorta feel intimidated whenever I want to put my sig up (that's everytime )

So what's the reason?

don't be intmidated, all that could happen if it bothered people is they will flame you to your face or say mean things about you behind your back. Just like at work

Excuse me for seeming stupid here, but bear with me....sig as in signature? Hell, I use mine all the time, where have you been? You are a newbie, correct? Have you been a LBNPer? Curious, or is this a new name for an established poster? Answers, please! LOL!

I'm new to this forum, but I'm an established member at a few others. Hehe, that wasn't very encouraging Shannon... oh well I'll use it from time to time ......?????

Spryroripguy: Why do you keep using that quote from Keiko Matsui on a lot of your posts in the Magic Island BB's? And, you ask why others don't use sigs, well....why don't you?

youngun, a sig is just something that personalizes your character a bit more ie a quote from someone. It doesn't just have to be your name.

Anyway I decided I'm not going to use a sig since no one else does so it seems wierd if only I do it. No matter.

Gee, I guess I'm no one, then! And by the way, most of us here have been here a long time and know one another, that may be why, too!

I love that Keiko Matsui quote..If you ever look on any of the boards in Salon.com almost everyone there has a sig that is the length of a short novel. Of course most of the poeple that post there are in the process of writing long novels. If I had a sig it would be a quote from Joni Mitchell that I found in an interview, its very long and very cool (but I don't have it with me, its at work). I have also used "its not my revolution if I can't dance"/Emma Goldman and "When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro"/Hunter S. Thompson. Now I would probably use "Ho Che Minh my chicken skin"/Serge A. Storms as channeled by Tim Dorsey. So see, it's better that I don't use one!
