Creating a signature?

[DrageMester]

Many users on this forum have a signature and the FAQ mentions How do I add a signature to my post?

But how does one create a signature in the first place?

If I go to my Profile, there is an option to control whether to attach the signature to posts or not, but I can't find an option to create or edit a signature anywhere!?!

Perhaps I'm looking in the wrong places, or perhaps my Buffer Underrun status prevents me from creating a sig? Perhaps I'm just blind?

Your help is appreciated.

go to your profile. in the Profile Information section enter your signature.

Thanks!

Did you change something in order for the signature field to appear, because I could have sworn that it wasn't there before.

so yes just recently

edit: whoever was the llama who complained about my avatar: go grow some cojones and stuff em

besides i guess it was time for me to change it anyway

welcome.
nope, it's always been there AFAIK.

This is due to an anti-spam mod we have in place. Essentially, you can't add a signature until you have so many posts under your belt. It was set to 10 but I lowered it to 5.

I see. So I wasn't blind after all - just impatient!

Thanks for making the change.

I didn't even realize it was doing that until I went in and updated that mod today.

it certainly is nice to know one isn't going blind
