Signature lost?

Does it happen to you that your signature was lost? I can't find my signature. I don't know what happened. I checked my edit signature but can't find it.

Signature Policy Change

I'm really excited about our Community's fast growth, and I want to ensure that we maintain a high level of post quality.

I've noticed that many low-quality posts have lengthy signatures attached, usually with multiple spammy links (which aren't related to Google in any way), such as:
  • Hot stars
  • Bad credit loans
  • Cheap/discount pharmacy
  • Pain relief
  • Luxury watches
  • Soma/health/cialis/ultram
  • Real estate
  • Shopping/sales
To eliminate this problem, I am disabling signatures for all regular users, effective immediately.

Forum Software Upgrade and Signature Policy Change

You are probably going to lose some members, as this is a webmaster forum, and webmasters like to post their signature. I'm pretty sure half the people who post here post because of signatures. They will probably move on to another webmaster forum , which allows signatures.

No, it's not allowed.

When people like what you say with high quality posts, they will go to your profile and find your site.

OK. Thanks. But there is still question remain. Why above type of signature not allowable. So what if some member use a hidden signature. Let say like use url on the smiley. Are this type of signature not allowed too?
