deleted signatures

Ok, I go and post something about the so-cal fires ,and when it posted I was reading it I look down and my Alpha Phi and other signatures was not there. WHO deleted it? It has been there since 2002.......that is editing of my own signature/work and no one has that right since it has been there for a long time and it is not offensive.

There was a signature overhaul a few months ago and all signatures were reset. There's a line/content limit now (though I can't remember what it is off the top of my head). Do a search and you'll see the announcement from John.

ETA: Info about signatures in the FAQ

It was deleted and replaced with a generic one, not edited. So no one touched your precious work. It just left the building. Make a new one, check the FAQ for the rules.

/snarky because you made it more than it is.

I believe there were emails about this in advance of it happening too in order to warn everyone.

There were, as well as notices in various forums. It happened back in early July. This notice in the AKA Forum saved the email from John.

"GreekChat.com - The Fraternity & Sorority Greek Chat Network" was the default signature when the resets happened.

You were huffy about people touching your "work." Turn the dial down a notch or two on your OP and my response would have been different.

Do try to spell my name right next time. It's not complicated.

Um, actually, John Hammell owns this site and he can delete anything he wants to anytime he wants to for absolutely no reason, if he feels so inclined.

Don't get all agitated just because you didn't bother to read the email informing you. Everyone got one.

First off, I didn't get an email. and second, why are you questioning my tone? I don't believe i need to dial it down maybe there are others who need to dial their tone down. I just merely asked something and am put on the firing wall for it.

OP, I think your "no one has a right" type language seemed a little silly to people who were around for the initial discussion of signature changes. It was discussed pretty thoroughly, I'd say. Many users were angry about it.

You didn't miss much other than knowing that yours was one of many that were changed and possibly knowing in advance what you need to change if you wanted to keep it.

You can recreate your old one as long as it fits the requirements.
