    in the meanwhile you'd want to state that in your signature or you might lose potential PMs. :)

    I got two infractions and a neg rep on my first day posting here. I didn't see any rules regarding "fake signatures" in any of the guidelines (or in the first post of this thread for that matter).

    Could someone please add fake sigs to the guidelines so that other newbs like myself won't get smacked down right off the bat like I did? I didn't realize that:

    Name
    <unlinked>website name

    Counted as a fake signature. It's a habit really whenever I'm posting or emailing people and now it seems I'm locked out of some site functionality because of it.

    <not a fake sig>
    Jack
    </end non fake sig>

    Time to reread the posting guidelines found in the FAQ!. You are not locked out because of your infractions. :)

    Hey it looks like you're right. I seem to recall reading somewhere that you needed rep of 10+ to be able to have a sig. I guess I was mistaken :)

    My rep is still at 5 though which gives people cause to call me names like "chuckles" and "Conan O'Brien". Oh the humanity!

    If you skip over the spelling mistakes instead of trying to edit them, and stop trying to translate the FAQ into one of the known modern languages, it goes a little faster...

    Honestly, not many people read rules to forums or sites. Look at how long they are, I'm sure not one person read every word from it (except admin/mods)...well I'm pretty sure at least.

    Shawn, make a test for all DP members to take before being allowed to log in again as of Wednesday lol - a test about the rules ;)

    I think the infraction of "Running Up Post Count/Post Has No Value" is so subjective, it needs to have more details to it.

    Sorry minstrel and samantha_pia to break your thread :D..

    May be we should set up a MC exam about FAQ and you need to have 80% right before you can post
