    I don't think it hurts; don't think it helps much either. I do think he may help a little big, though.

    Every forum is a possible way to get your site out there. No harm done.

    It can improve. Particular pages, especially old topics can get it's own PR, so...

    bottom line is always traffic anyways, so if people check out your links in sig its worth doing.

    Forum postings with signature is one way to improve the site. There's nothing bad in performing this, just keep doing those things that you think can help you even in a little way, because it still helps.

    i think forum links are worth the same as do-follow blog comment links... kind of worthless when it comes to high competition terms but better than nothing.

    In the light of new GOOGLE ALGO, forum signature links are not as good as the previous ones. Earlier it had very good impact on SEO.

    The more your links are 'out there' the better. The degree of "better" varies.

    Absolutely. I agree with you. Even if it doesn't get u a backlink, it helps you get visitors.

    Cheers.

    I think it helps a little. Unlike blog comments, forum signature links are "do-follow" which means you should receive some benefits of SEO.
