Oh, and people confuse the New "Joisey" accent with Long Island, IMHO. -

I have to agree.
I do not mind the content, of some of the buttons at least. But the ones in your sig are just too big, VG. -

Quote:I know, we've had this discussion before ;-) Argentina is crowded, but the average NJ speed is 85mph on the 55mpg highways.Originally Posted by Leandro
I'm from Argentina. Do you want to know what traffic in Argentina is like? This is a quote from Wikitravel guide which is spot on: "the traffic in Buenos Aires is extremely chaotic. Stoplights, signs, traffic laws... for many porteño drivers, are just suggestions. Picture yourself trying to get several thousand heads of cattle to move down the street and stay inside the lanes, and you have a decent idea of driving in Buenos Aires. The best advice? Take the bus! Otherwise, best of luck to you. Argentina has one of the highest motor vehicle accident mortality rates in the world."
Still, putting my seatbelt on is automatic for me, and I taught my nephews the same. I always drive within speed limits and respect all traffic lights. Just because everybody else drives like a lunatic (my own mother never puts on a seatbelt and doesn't even have a valid license), it doesn't mean I should follow their example. -

. That's like getting a speeding ticket for going 65 in a 55 road, and your defense is "I've gone around looking at other cars and they were going 70, so why is my 65 unacceptable?"

It has been pointed before, like in the case of the "Loyalist"/"Resistance" signatures. And in any case, now you know, but you're not making any moves to actually play by the rules; in fact, you are openly saying that you don't care about them. Please reconsider your attitude.
As for the "not a Photoshop guru" bit, all you have to do is say you'll replace your icons for appropriate-sized ones if provided, and I'll post 120-pixel tall versions of all of them for your use. But right now you are not giving any indication that you would accept such an offer. -

They are big enough to dominate a post to where I have little clue as to what is being said without hunting for it. I should never have to hunt for it. If you going to be so hell bent on using images that go against posting guidelines, then don't be shocked your posts get reported.
Hardly.
It's an internet forum. It doesn't pay my rent. It doesn't buy my groceries. It doesn't affect if my trains run on time.
My level of "hell bent" on the forum, on a scale of 1 - 10? 0.5.
But, if for you, however, if the image size of a forum user's signature is such a cause for serious concern, then...
Yikes!
If you bothered to read any of the posts above, like the one where I mentioned to Snow Globe about my outdated imaging software
I'm not a photoshop guru. I don't spend my days sitting and reading forum regulations to such finite detail to know offhand or to know instantly what an appropriate forum signature size is.

Shockingly, I agree with Snow Globe (I guess it had to happen once). The forum guidelines clearly say, "Signature Images are allowed, however they must be limited to 600x120 pixels AND less than 150kb"
This is the size that complies with the forum guidelines:

Quote:My PNG optimizer doesn't like to do partial transparency, unfortunately. It's either a specific color transparent or not at all.Originally Posted by Snow Globe
Oh, I can see you fine. I just didn't want to see a ton of ugly buttons equating Free to Play with the bastion of capitalism. I am Canadian, I find patriotism shocking. I'm also a digital artist, and find poorly optimised PNGs and GIFs to be annoying to look at. The shadows on the PNGs should be translucent, not showing white, and the halo of white surrounding the buttons just are irritating.

Those buttons look a little big, (ie exceeding forum guide lines) and overly 'US patriotic' for this non American.
I'm glad for the intent of them though.
And everything's bigger in Texas. -

Might want to change the order on that one.
I mean, it's true enough, people are more than likely gonna have to shell out if they want to be involved in the Coming Storm, I'm sure, but I don't think that's really what you were going for.

We're not going to be losing some HUGE chunk of our population to the VIP server.
The new free players won't be stranded without help - and even if you were, you don't think they wouldn't be able to figure out the game? Didn't we all have to figure it out as we went along? -
Do you embrace the new F2P hybrid business model? Show it off in your signature! Below each image is the corresponding BBcode that you just need to copy and paste into your signtuare.
At the bottom is a blank button image if you want to create your own 
These prettier versions were made by SnowGlobe.

Quote:I don't think we have to show them our community doesn't suck - I think it will be evident when they log in.Originally Posted by NuclearTwinkie
I know I have had some bad experiences in F2P games, an will be slowly moving characters to the VIP server. With the free transfer each month plus 400 points for extra slots as needed, it should be fairly easy.
However, what has made this game great is the community and the fact that we are willing to help new players. There is a chance that we can show these bums a community that doesn't suck. Silver lining and all that.
I know I, for one, will spend a lot of that time when the new generation comes in mentoring who I can. Years ago, when I was on Victory (and it still had a population,) I used to spend my evenings in Mercy Island waiting for new new players to log in and would offer to help them.
