Waitasecond, **ParentalAdvisory** … Was that a sig? Because it’s far, far to big to be acceptable. The rough guidline is about four lines or less, and that clocks in at about 16 or 17. I would suggest that you change it back, before one of the admins notices. ---

[**Profile signatures**](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?s=&postid=3407287#post3407287) > [@](#): > > **How long can my profile signature be?** > Your signature should not be more than 4 lines in length when the browser window is seen on an average size monitor. If your signature is deemed too long, then a staff member may ask you to change it and/or change it for you. > > **How many times should I include my signature in a thread?** > Once per thread should be sufficient for people to admire the pearl of wisdom included in your signature. If you post multiple times in a thread it is recommended that you only include the signature in one of your posts. > > **What if I copy and paste the same text at the end of each of my posts? That’s not a profile signature.** > Let’s not quibble on definitions. For all intents and purposes that text included at the end of all your posts is indistinguishable from a profile signature and should follow the recommendations for profile signatures. **Chronos** is correct, **ParentalAdvisory**. Your sig won’t cut it. Correct it, or an Administrator will do it for you. * * * **Cajun Man** ~ SDMB Moderator
