Couple of thoughts. I post on a number of forums where the signature is
automatic. If other people here do the same, it's easy to see how unsigned posts appear here. People are used to it happening automatically. Is there any feature in Yahoo which would allow us to set up permanent signatures? Also, I have not discovered any feature that allows me to edit one of my posts. So if I forget to sign, I can't go back and rectify it. Kerry 92 FC 35 Denver |

Signature "requirements" are tough for Yahoo forums. Even if there is some
feature for web-based posts they do not affect those of us who post by e-mail. When I posted to the Wanderlodge groups from my regular e-mail account I probably forgot to change my signature 2 times out of 3. Volume eventually got so high that I set up a different e-mail account strictly for Wanderlodge posts, and that allowed me to have a "proper" signature. I suspect that when I'm on the road my location is going to be wrong rather often because I will forget to update it - I suppose I could change to this for that part, since it will usually be correct: My location: http://map.datastormusers.com/user2.cfm?user=1 On 3/22/2007 at 2:25 PM davidkerryedwards wrote: >Couple of thoughts.

Don't quite get it. What is the big deal about unsigned posts? If
someone sends an unsigned post and the message is unimportant why worry about it?

Forum protocol and common sense. If you have something worth while to say, sign
off on it. Many people won't respond to questions or dispense information to unfamiliar posters. The real problem for some of us is the bizarre behavior of hiding behind a internet nickname. Some of us choose not to interact with those who won't stand for who they are.
