  1. Add the [Solved] feature to “Post options” - this really cuts down on excessive reads and aids the searcher for genuine solutions.

  2. Allow sigs, but mandate that they are monochrome, fixed text, and contain only your systems’ specs and/or a single line of non-commercial, non-offensive single line. The former would also would assist debuggers; the latter, well… :slight_smile:

Thanks!

Thank you for your suggestions.

Sigs were allowed until recently, but too many abuses were happening, so now only forum crew/staff is allowed to have a signature.
We deal with tons of spam everyday, and we have zero tolerance on spam. Disabling signatures for regular users was, unfortunately, a necessary measure.
