Can we have avatar on the forums, I feel that it makes it easier to read, as each person has a diffrent pic, just makes it quicker and nicer, please! Even if it is only the flag of our nation!

Due to what effects it would have on the server having to host the avatars, it is not possible. However, the game admins are contemplating this after we move to Jolt, if we ever do.

Same answer - perhaps after the move to Jolt.

Some users have a bit of code they copy and paste after every post; though I've never wanted to bother myself.

Personally, I'm finding myself hating the concepts of sigs more and more.

I'm really sick of seeing other forums where people will have insanely long sigs with multiple lines of text, giant pictures, and 18 links, and you have to see that crap every single post, even when they're only actually writing 1 line of text.

Agreed.

I agree, but if we restricted sigs to a couple lines of text, like we do at another forum I mod, it is generally fine. We don't really have problems with sigs there.

I think sigs would be a nice feature, if limited and kept just to text.

Fifthed. Copy-paste is generally sufficient on the rare occasions when I use a sig.

And on-topic: I wouldn't mind national flag avatars, but would object to others as being somewhat off-topic to NS.
