How do you identify people?(In the forums)

You know, in the forums? Some people identify the by name, but I am really lazy, or maybe not. I don't bother to look at the name, and instead look at the signature, because it is usually bigger, and more visual. So now I have these repositories of signatures in my head taking up lots of space....  tongue

I know the general shape of them, so I can't describe them fully, but maybe a little bit.

And that's why I hate it when people share the same signature! People without one are fine, but I remember Lucario621, Jonathanpb and Chrischb had this flashy Scratch Wiki orange signature.

How do you identify people?

The reason I like my signature is because mine is one of a kind.  tongue

Signature!
I always think the Wiki is Lucario, but it never is. xD

Re: How do you identify people?(In the forums)

I keep getting annoyed at the Lucario, JSO, Jon, and Chris. Stupid sginatures!!!

But for some people like RHY3756547, I can tell by the little sound I make for everyone in my head because of their posting style.

Re: How do you identify people?(In the forums)

Usually by signature, but sometimes I glance at the name.


Now only using this account to post in Miscellaneous, but when Miss_Webgal becomes a Scratcher I'm ditching this account.

Re: How do you identify people?(In the forums)

I generally tell by name- unless they have a large sig with their name (like you) that draws my attention first.

Also my point.

Look at the signature, and bingo.  tongue

Re: How do you identify people?(In the forums)

Really? You use signatures to determine the user? That's so strange...

I use the username, of course!

In fact, I've disabled signatures...

So does that mean you can't see my super awesome signature?

Actually now that I think about it, it's the same one as the one I have at Astrogeek. So you've probably seen it enough

Kidding  lol

Anyway, I go by signatures, which gets confusing when more than one person has the same thing... then I go by their name.

I'm taking a break from Scratch until 2.0 comes out. Any messages sent between then and now probably won't be read - sorry.

You look at their name and get another mental image.

Don't worry then, I'll make a special topic and put my signature in it so that you can appreciate the awesomeness

Re: How do you identify people?(In the forums)

I still can't get over that you use the signature to identify somebody... I mean, isn't it just so much easier to use the username? It's just to the left of the post... And there's so much more information down there!
