OK, I've been an active member on DP Forums for 7 days (today is day 7), I have 14 or so posts, and a green reputation bar but my signature link is not showing yet. And, when I go into the User CP, I cannot modify my signature - I just get the signature FAQ's page. I'm stumped. Any idea what's up?
I don't know what the terms are but after 16 posts I wouldn't exactly call myself an active member. No offence intended though, I could be wrong. Good luck anyways! Supreme.
Can you people not read the FAQ? It's the first entry! http://forums.digitalpoint.com/faq.php?faq=dp_faq#faq_signatures
Thanks for all replies. As obvious by my original post, I did read the sig. FAQ and I (thought) I touched on all sig. points - and met the requirements - in my post. I was just curious...guess I just need to wait a few more hours. Just an FYI: My original post "member on DP Forums for 7 days (today is day 7), I have 14 or so posts, and a green reputation bar" Here is the Sig FAQ: "What are the restrictions and requirements to have a signature and live links? Our system has automatic signature guideline enforcement. Currently the restrictions are: Up to 250 characters No more than 3 lines No more than 4 links Images are not allowed Signatures and live links within posts are not available to users until they have been a member at least 7 days, have positive (green) reputation and have at least 10 posts. I have 10 posts, but my signature still does not work. There could be two different reasons for this. .. If your 10th post was very recent, it might not be in affect yet. The system checks for users that need to be "upgraded" once an hour (on the 25th minute of the hour). You need to be a member for at least 7 days. The forum has a reputation system that allows users to add or take reputation from other users (you can find details on how it works by clicking here). If your reputation falls below a certain level, the system automatically revokes your ability to have a signature and live links. If your reputation returns to being above the threshold level, the system automatically restores your ability to use live links and signatures. So, this means it's a good idea to try and get along with others. "
