I like them am not talking about teddy bears but in my case a disclaimer. I will not use the word trigger if I have to type it in every time or tell people to not do what I do IF I have to type it in every time. Tis an option

It's not something I'm crazy about, but I certainly wouldn't fight against it, a lot of people seem to really like them. I'd still like you Fallen : )

But if you used your trigger warning as a signature, it would be at the end of the post, after someone has read what you have written that is potentially triggering..

I don't much like signatures either. I like the uncluttered look.
I would very much like itallics and bold. At the moment I just YELL the words I would itallic. Not too polite.
I like some emoticons. Embarrassed, happy, sad. Some of the emotional ones help add a tone to the post. But I guess you can say what you can emoticon and that is probably a useful skill too...

Thats true I meant to say disclaimer.....I am fed up with trigger anyways whats the point ....to me it seems youre gonna trigger someone some way in here so the whole site should read TRIGGER....I anger over this is most likely why I posted trigger and lol I am not mad at you :)

Ooooh. That's what it means. I thought that was something Yahoo did to people.
But how does it improve security?

I think signature lines are a horrible, horrible idea. Please do not allow them.

Really?

I also always wondered but was too shy to ask. I eventually started using * around words I wanted to stress or make bold. I think it just made sense to me from seeing how it was used in other posts. At least I hope so!

Yo Dr Bob I will go play at AOL and see what I can push the limit to :) as to is that civil I covered that in my one post saying I wasnt sure but hoped it was OK in here lol in AOL it is :)
My sigline in here would change no doubt but would most likely be of a disclaimer nature...you know do not do this things are closer in the mirror then they appear kinda thing :) I will get back to you when I know on how much> > they limit the letters and spaces on AOL ...I am guessing they set the limit...

No.. a link that doesn't show the entire URL.. an "<a href type =" type link.. I hate showing the entire url when posting something more than a random link.
I will keep asking on occasion though *L*

Good idea :-)
Happier about no itallics now I know about putting asterisks around the word too.

Dr Bob after a lotta time with aol tech help I was told 284 on the message boards and 2000 on the email siglines....both seem very large to me for your site. My opinion would be like less than 50...JMO
