Yanno, now that you mention it...when the net at my complex is fine it's really no BFD.

...but to be honest whenever the connection becomes loaded down the first things that don't load up and cause the site to take forever are the sigs chock-full of graphics and those little "Stats of how many hours, games, kills, etc. I've had this week and all time".

But whateva, I know if I wanted all that unnecessary stat stuff in my sig then I probably wouldn't want someone to tell me it was too much either.

I think that they should be limited, although not too dramatically. Most forums that I goto have a sig limit, and I think small restriction would be a good thing.

ya we're not talking about nuking them at all...just restricting to small userbar sizes like the ones the site generates for our names (the one in my sig)
