Signatures are pretty much universally lame. One can find reasons to have them in email (particularly for work), but on a message board? Seriously lame. I'm really surprised at the outcome of the poll. When I clicked "yes" I honestly expected to see an enourmous bar on the yes vote and virtually no no votes. Wow.

They're usually lame and you can usually pass over them too, by changing your preferences in the software.

The spammyness and lameness of the way Toth is doing it is because first, signatures are disabled in these forums, and second, he decided to make one anyway, and you can't avoid it.

The actual clutter it takes up is reasonably minimal, last I saw. I'm sure we've all seen signatures that were so huge that they were bigger than the the posts they were attached to. Even worse when they're incredibly stupid or dull. Toth's seem against the spirit of the forum rules, but basically inoffensive except for that.

my question is, does he type it out every time, or does he have some sort of automated thing that puts it in for him?

i think it's slightly spammy...although, only after you pointed it out - it's not really that big of a deal.

Good question. Like many others I have signature viewing disabled. The fact he types it out makes it ... well ... interesting.

I don't think you read the correspondence between Barron and some of the other MHL posters. His whole history makes it obvious that he types this out at least 250 times a day.

I'm not voting in this b/c I don't give a crap, but I always wondered this about Barron, john nickles, and Raymer, if they have something that does it. Especially complex ones like Jim Kuhn and the guy in Home Poker with the Home Poker League website in his signature.
