For a second, I thought that you meant an IP signature--which actually might be good, if the IP were scrambled.

I'd like a signature line, but I think that I would be the only one who uses it--nobody seems to use the email tag for email, so the signature line would be mostly redundant.

Nay. The email line should simply be retitled signature of tagline and have its email linking disabled.

I say no. Main reason is that this board's format (unlike e.g. VBB) is not really suited for signatures. Sig lines would more or less double the length of each post and make long threads even harder to wade through (as it is, I already find threads hard to read after more than 30 posts or so).

I think the email tagline works well. Get rid of the email link so I can actually have a working link to my blog or something. Also if people do want an email link (or have a private message function), you can embed the link with the poster's name so people could just click on that and contact the poster directly.

I think I agree with this.

The e-mail function is used by absolutely no one. But is a good place for an inane "signature," like mine.

Yes, it is a fortunate coincidence that it happens to be colored and italicized/underlined, to set it off from the rest of the header. But the fact that it's an email link is useless and confusing.

Also agreed.

Additionally, there's a certain visual appeal in having a "sig" (i.e. the e-mail line) immediately to the right of a user's name, rather than at the bottom of every post. The fact that it's colored and italicized sets it off from the name, like a further commentary on the poster's personality. A little bit of insta-identity fashioning, if you will.

this sounds right. there's no reason to lengthen posts for a sig line when everyone uses the email field already, and i like the idea of embedding the email link in the moniker.

and an 'ignore poster' filter function would be phenomenal. no more aznazn posts.

We tried outsourcing and it was an absolutely horrible experience. Maybe I'll go dig up the demo those Indian programmers made for us and post a screenshot here.

Here is why we aren't keen on the outsourcing idea anymore:

http://www.autoadmit.com/autoadmitbad.JPG

This was the mock-up sent after we sent a very specific five page job description that primarily focused on integrating AA/XO and LSN.

Another programmer sent us something similarly bad for summerassociate.com, though I can't seem to find that monstrosity right now.
