Starflyr3 Posted July 10, 2016 #26 Share Posted July 10, 2016 (edited) It is fine to keep a signature, but there are ways to make it MUCH smaller so others don't have to see it take up half a page several times, especially in a thread like this where you respond multiple times. The folks with obnoxiously long signatures come off as braggadocios. The revised signature conveys the same information without taking up lots of valuable screen real estate. Wow. There's a little button in the user profile that lets you turn signatures off, if it bugs you so much. Talk about judgemental! And I would like pictures, too of the renovations in the suites, as we'll be on Dawn in March Edited July 10, 2016 by Starflyr3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimS4210 Posted July 10, 2016 #27 Share Posted July 10, 2016 It is fine to keep a signature, but there are ways to make it MUCH smaller so others don't have to see it take up half a page several times, especially in a thread like this where you respond multiple times. The folks with obnoxiously long signatures come off as braggadocios. The point of the signature is to assist people in knowing where you have been, but it isn't necessary to let it run on and on in large font which makes it annoying when you have to scroll past a long half page signature trying to find relevant content. For example Mahatma has a particularly long signature with excessive spacing and repetitive information which currently looks like this: This signature could easily be trimmed to this much more reader friendly format: The revised signature conveys the same information without taking up lots of valuable screen real estate. So I guess we now have a new phrase - The Signature Police. If your signature is deemed to be too long or the wrong font size (or God forbid, multiple colors!). you risk the wrath of the Signature Police. Hopefully, I'm safe since I only have two cruises completed, although I do have two coming up. Am I allowed to have two countdowns or does that offend your sensibilities? Must be a slow day in NOLA if this is what you're complaining about... Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAMATAMA Posted July 10, 2016 Author #28 Share Posted July 10, 2016 Wow….. I guess I never noticed how things worked here. I am surprised how critical people are. I am not a not sure if I will not be posting anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What difference is it to you? Jeeze now we have signature police here? :eek: Crazy - Mamatama - I suspect there will be pictures coming out soon if there are none by then maybe you can post some when you return? I am going on the Dawn in October and would love to see new pics of the rooms! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAMATAMA Posted July 10, 2016 Author #30 Share Posted July 10, 2016 Thanks so much… I will certainly post pictures for you….Happily:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fonrouge82 Posted July 10, 2016 #31 Share Posted July 10, 2016 Mamatama, I too would love current pictures of the refurbished suites! I thought your question was very reasonable. We are booked in an SC for the first time 8/12. I, too, will happily post pictures. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAMATAMA Posted July 10, 2016 Author #32 Share Posted July 10, 2016 Thank you so much, I am unsure why there are such critical people. We all going on a cruise, why on earth are they not HAPPY people! LOL I am unable to locate any updated photos will let you know if I do. Thanks again for the support:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonvoyagie Posted July 10, 2016 #33 Share Posted July 10, 2016 Mamatama - I have been posting here for over 10 years now and this is the first I have heard of this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRAustin Posted July 10, 2016 #34 Share Posted July 10, 2016 Wow….. I guess I never noticed how things worked here. I am surprised how critical people are. I am not a not sure if I will not be posting anymore. Don't worry about the comment. The signature is no big deal and it isn't bragging just showing where you been and when may even list type of room. Most everyone who sails a lot has one. I appreciate the post. Waiting for suite pictures too. Dawn 10000 or 10500. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
