Everyone, How about keeping signatures to 5 lines or less, pretty please?
Keep the basic facts in your dignature. We don't need to know the date every single time you caught your spouse with someone.
When there ar 15 posts in a topic and has an 18 line signature, you get 3 lines of info & 75 lines of stuff you have already read.
Thanks!

Chris-
Sometimes, we need to show sig lines so those that respond don't misunderstand our 'stories' when they try to give an intelligent response to posts. I will shorten my sig line when the D is final. I came here from GQII and Recovery threads. Beside what about those 'monster threads'? Who has time to read every one of those posts?

Just a suggestion. You could put all the d-days on one line separated by a comma...
Usually people don't jump into the middle of a longer thread because it (the thread) is too long to read everything & "catch up."

Something that helps, is if you have a long signature, deselect "Show Signature" on your 2nd or 3rd or 10th reply to the same thread ... just a suggestion!

If I have read the signatures once in a thread, I just don't read them again and scroll past...however, I do like PB does, and usually choose not to post my signature after the first post.
Love and light,
Jacky

Chris I am with you and it has been posted before here and on GQII that sig lines need to be 5 lines or less, it's a courtsey thing, I believe!!!
I scroll threw those lenghty ones. And I post my only once on a thread, if then, if it is a thread of someone that I know, I usually don't post it at all!!
My 2 cents worth tonight and now I think I have spent a dime!!!
Thanks for making the statement!!!

28 lines for a signature line is far, far too many people!

I agree with CA125----Anything long is too many details. Long sigs confuse me. I think that sig lines are so important to our purpose here cause it reminds us of the place we have all been, but I don't read long ones.

I guess it's better but I don't know if you are the husband or the wife?
We don't need to know every single d-day, everytime she said she doesn't love you, if she threatened to divorce 15 times. As the saying goes, just the facts ma'am, just the facts.
Here is a good example;
husband (me) - bs - 42, wife ws - 41 children 2 girls, 17 &12, I have sole custody. Married 22 years, met in high school d-day 25 Dec 98, wife moved in with om 17 Feb Counseled with Steve H, wife left & never came back. Now divorced over one year & she don't know it.
