Wonderful! More of a reason not to donate. If it were not allowed before it wouldn't be so bad, whats next only if you give money or are a moderator will you be allowed to reply to posts?

this does seem to require a modicum of justification

I disagree with the justification given there, but I have no problem with maing site supported be the ones to have them.

Its your board and if this costs you time/money, you have the right to limit what you want! Also, giving perks to supporters is one way of helping you support your board.

A lot of people who complain are those who dont understand all the work that goes into running/hosting these discussion boards. Its really a hands-on endeavor.

I too realize how much work goes into a board, however I was just speaking in comparison to other boards. I post on quite a few but paying for a sig is a new one! However its better than paying for a avatar or not having one at all. Also I like that the site has no popups another expensive item. I only donate to one site, not because I am stingy but my lively hood is my non profits, which are running in the red thanks to our horrible economy.

I've turned on signatures and added the following rule:

14. Signatures which are deemed to be uncivil, insulting, or inflammatory are subject to arbitrary removal by the administrators (or moderators). Repeated infractions can result in disciplinary action.
