POLL: Do you really look at people's signature lines?

RNCHSN

Hi guys and girls,

I'm just curious. How many of us actually look at the signature lines at the bottom of our posts? I mean all of them, not just the ones with pictures and graphics that jump right out at you (or just sit there drinking alone! LOL!)

I look at them. I think it's pretty interesting to see what you think is inportant enough to announce to the group.

As a matter of fact, I take that signature line AND photo very seriously. When I see a cashier zip the card thru the machine without a glance at me,I usually ask "How do you know that's me?"
This question usually elicits a response like..."Dah..like you know Man...cool".

Of course when you're an old fart like me you can get away with that stuff. Twowood

why yes I do look at the signature.

Usually, although I do kinda wish that we didn't have so many large pictures in sig areas. That is, pics that are > 3K in size.

kranky

I sometimes notice them, but I don't like the large pictures either. Slows down loading the page.

Hi Twowood,

I think you misunderstood my intent. I'm talking about the signature line at the bottom of each posting you place here on the message boards, NOT credit cards. Although, I've noticed some people DO ignore those signatures too. LOL!

I always check out yours Ron..


going to NYINC?

LanLord

I imagine most people don't care for mine. Slows down the works too much.

SarasotaFrank

well Tom, I can't count how many times my wife has asked me what I am doing when she sees the images you put in your sig line go by.

remind me to send you a thank you card. Don't worry if it's ticking.

really.

wingedliberty

Always.

I seldom do and I suspect a large percentage don't either.
I know I have never had someone PM me asking for one of my lists that are mentioned in my sig line.

I do find large pictures and graphics annoying and scroll through them rapidly to read the threads of interest

RNCHSN

Hey Tom,

I ALWAYS look at your signature pic. Shania's HOT!

Bill,

I'm not going to NYC for the show. Penny just got into a Nurse Anesthesist program that starts in May. She won't be able to visit her family in MS again for about 3 years. We're going down in mid Feb. so I'm tight on cash after my recent purchases. I'm going to try to make Mike Dixon's show in spring as my last coin show that's more than an hour away. After that, I'll probably be tied down, pretty close to home for 2-3 years until she gets out of school again.

RNCHSN

I started this because I contact people about their signature notes, and have had a few people contact me about mine. I'm just curious (ie...NOSEY) about what the rest of you think.



edited to add the nosey comment.

Sure do. The signatures are informative and clever.
Also I can see what particular coins a member and I
may have in common and I might pm them. You can see
the emphasis I place on eye appeal from my signature.

mbbiker

yes i do always, i know some other people do read them because i have gotten a few pm's about it.

dorkkarl

Usually.

I look at Lanlord and Traderbobz sig lines, but then I forget what I was going to post.

Russ

I frequently get PMed asking for larger pics of the coins I put in my sig.

Always.
With cable even the ones with big pictures in them are no problem.

I always look. I find it interesting too, like you said. Mine has been my motto all my life.

PhillyJoe

I always do. It gives you a little insight into the person posting. Usually, I try to find something cute or witty; for now I'm just a smartazz.

For me, it's not always the size byte-wise of the image that is the issue but the size dimension-wise. After a while, some of these threads look like the classified ad section in a newspaper with three lines of content and big pictures for other things. Just a clarifier of my original post.

airplanenut

If I'm not rushing through the post, yes.

I'm sure mine stands out

BlueCole

i can't help but love mine,

but i think having an icon and a pic is a bit too much. . . nah!!!

B.

cosmicdebris

Of course I do

DCAMFranklin

NEVER. And the big, overblown pictures are a complete waste.

I think Sarasota Franks got a classic line there, Makes me laugh all the time.
I always look at the Sig lines.
