There an anti-gay filter for the sigs now. This part of your sig

your jealous that my

Is too gay for the anti-gay filter, thus it is blocking it. The CIA/FBI can also be to blame.

ya know Korey, after pondering this for 5 seconds your comment could be considered racist. and since we now live in the Politically Correct Country, also know as the US, I could sue you for it...


But alas, i got better crap to btch about... like how we ended up with advertisements smaller sigs and smaller avatars... Sounds like we're getting the crap covered end of the stick here.

You should stop complaining because you don't pay for the site.

^agreed.

Sigs were cut shorter mostly due to people having 6" long signatures with 5 quotes...it was more obknoxious after the new format was put in. One or two quotes were fine, but more than that, is really excessive. Line limit might be bumped up in the future, but making long signatures full of stupid stuff isn't going to help things. You're not a contrib so it's even shorter thank a contrib if you edit it.

I'm sure I can make your duck and bunny your avatar if you wish....





And Korey....ROFL!!

Dude...

Being a racist is about a person's RACE... not sexual orientation. However, I will not make fun of you and your lifestyle.

i will cry dammit!

FX4.... I was just gonna change my quote I wasnt going to add another one. then I tried deleteing the quote still too long, so I left it the way it is...

Also, in a way, I do pay for the site, just like everyone else, via the ads. back when that texan owned it the site was free, truelly free to all visitors... not contribs just pay a lil more to get a bigger sig. but thats not to say we all dont pay for the site, when we do. its just a different method.

You can't count the 50 cents the ads give the site from you a month as paying.

You would think someone with 3,300 posts would care enough to be a contributor. And like trent said, the ads dont count for you paying to use the site.

50 cents x 12 = $6

$6 by 10,000 'users' according to the 'owner' = $60,000+ per month.

To sue Korey you would need some specifics with regards to IP, email addy, time date and server logs.

Sadly, you would need to serve me with a subpoena, or the ISP. In either case we will be down at the hockey rink playing playing pickup and wondering what you are complaining aboot.

Yet another reason why this site is getting worse.

It really boggles my mind on how we have to put a limit on sigs. This is becoming a dictatorship.

Its stupid. When I want to know what someone has on their truck I dont want to have to ask. It should be like the old days when you could just look at their sig.

Some would say you have the freedom to go elsewhere.... but only some.

I would go eleswhere but every other ranger site is ****ter.

I will have to deal with it like everyone else.

I have a suggestion. If we cant edit our current sigs why not just take them away.

BTW: thank you for pointing out my constitutional rights.
