Hi folks, probably a stupid question with a simple answer but I've looked at my control panel and tried adding a signature to my posts but can't find how to do it. Can anyone help me out?

Iirc you have to be a member for 7 days (or something like that) - it's an anti-spam thing.

[Edit] Well, it ain't that obviously!

Right, it's because you're a "new user" - once you post x number of times (and I haven't worked out what x) is, you automatically move to "registered users" and will be able to add a signature.

Yes, it's an anti-spam feature.

:lol: Until he goes and posts spam on X number of threads to unlock his signature.

Of course...I guess it could be argued that I've posted garbage at least a 1000 times. :)

I'm new here and was about to post same question, Don't this idea just encourage spam posts just so we can get a sig? And how can some one spam a sig isn't it just by posting so what difference does it make if you have a sig or not, seems bit silly really.

I ran into this issue as well. It's unfortunate that I could not find anything about it in the FAQ...

Guys, it's a 'sig'. Hang around long enough and you get one. What's the rush...?

No rush, but it's annoying when you look for a feauture you see in use, and cannot find it. :P
