honestly i think the whole thing is stupid, no one complained about sigs until now, and most of us have had the same sigs for a very long time.
They do care about the current member's opinions, which is why their compromise is to have the signatures still available via a click. If they didn't care this would have been over a long time ago by disabling signatures altogether.

How many forums do you frequent? Five? Fifteen? 100? I don't know about the forums you visit, but a lot of the boards I frequent are more concerned with content, rather than pretty or cool signatures, so they set limitations or disable them altogether.

Don't you care about TouchDS.com? Don't you care that it gets new members? Don't you care about it being here a few months from now? If traffic continues to dwindle I doubt the owner/administrator will continue to shell out money to keep it running. Keep in mind that the administrators are attempting to bring people in, and as chuddy indicated earlier, the signature problem is something people are complaining about.

When someone new to a site finds it unattractive, annoying, or hard to get content from, they typically just move onto another. I was around TouchDS before the signatures started becoming a problem, so I'm actually complaining. If I looked at the forums for the first time last week I never would have come back; I wouldn't have attempted to contact a moderator or admin. It's that bad to me.
