    So 1% of SBR posters can have a trophy in his sig when he wins a poker tourney??

    Yes, very questionable decision that involved zero consultation.

          Sigs make the site appealing for first time readers. Bring 'em back!

            I like that they are gone. they were in the way and made the forums load slower. Now everything loads much faster and looks cleaner

                            I don't recall even seeing a thread on this decision, why would they do this without asking sbr posters? At least start a thread with a poll in it

                              newbies are all the time on here wanting to know who to follow & who is a good capper.

                              Sigs allowed posters to document their records for everyone to see

                              I mean, how is someone supposed to know that Rubberband plays are hitting at close to 70% without it being in Brock Landers sig???

                                        Sigs are very sketchy in nature

                                        Un-verified information available for everyone to consume

                                        Removing them makes SBR safer

                                          Not everyone uses sig's for records. And I don't understand why you cannot use both signatures AND trophys.

                                              I see now that they were primarily for unverified hype.

                                              Taking them away for trophies is essential to SBR's legitimacy, good call.

                                              But maybe a middle ground can be reached, no record posting in sigs allowed but a quote is okay? W/e.

                                                Bobby pushed for this because someone hammered him in their signature

                                                This was a personal vendetta Bobby had

                                                                There were a lot of guys throwing out some crazy sigs and nearly every one with a record was padded. Plus, the software did not allow mods to edit sigs so a guy could say something that needed moderation like personal info on a fellow poster and there was nothing we could do. We came up with the trophy case and lets give it a chance.
