Yurgon Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 What do you want done about it exactly? Nobody here can influence it. Except raise awareness. Which this very thread might accomplish. Of course if I was an admin on this forum, I'd probably set up a script that temporarily banned anyone who doesn't know how to set up his stupid app for a week or two. :devil_2: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KLR Rico Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 I think it's a good sign of how well DCS is running when the biggest thing people have to complain about is some stupid tacked on default signature.

Not really seeing how its that much more annoying than some peoples sigs, seems pretty minor in the grand scheme of life. People force you to read stuff you dont want to all the time, whats another few words?

sobek Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 (edited) Not really seeing how its that much more annoying than some peoples sigs Sigs are clearly separate from the message body. Also (at least hypothetically) there's rules for sigs keeping their size and form at bay. seems pretty minor in the grand scheme of life. As is 99% of what goes on on this forum ;) As for the "old Usenet days" well there is probably a good reason why they are now "old" The reason they are "old" now is that people favor fancy colors and html smiley BS over readability. .... that argument works as about as good as my Dad's arguments about all the "the new electronic features in cars being a waste" argument ;) Yeah, how on earth did humanity come so far without heated bum cussions?

Also (at least hypothetically) there's rules for sigs keeping their size and form at bay. I am sure our public image on other forums (Hi Tom) would soar if we started banishing people for an innocent line of type, of course on those other forums (Hi Tom) we apparently already do worse ;) Its Apple's fault isn't it, don't they already do those auto-generated sigs with their crap? :) You can blame years of marriage for my superpower of being able to ignore bits of info I dont think I need to see/hear (ie tapatalk sigs & request to take the trash out) Sent from my heart and soul to all you good people :D Forum Rules • My YouTube • My Discord - NineLine#0440• **How to Report a Bug** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yurgon Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 By the way, what is it with Tapatalk replacing smileys/emoticons? Apparently the app does it while displaying posts: http://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=2568089&postcount=29 And apparently it also replaces smileys when quoting: http://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=2563155&postcount=4442 http://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=2564641&postcount=4446 The original thumb-up comes from http://forums.eagle.ru/images/smilies/thumbup.gif and the quoted one is sourced at http://emoji.tapatalk-cdn.com/emoji106.png, and for some even more obscure reason the quoted smiley is simply displayed as [ emoji106] (without the space) in the "View Single Post" mode, so it seems as if the forum itself replaces the bracketed term with the image from the Tapatalk CDN. I guess that's the Tapatalk plugin taking action there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
domini99 Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 I don't like the smiley replacement eirher. The Tapatalk smileys aren't even fun. Would like to be able to use the smileys like they appear on PC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
