Mabey make a poll about what they like about draynor sigs so much such as.

Size
color
way your name looks etc.

So that RW staff can make our sigs better and we put this "draynor.net" out of our minds.

Why are we putting it out of our minds now?

I'm still trying to discuss here, and it hasn't left my mind yet, and it won't (God Willing)

But I do like your idea for the poll.

Here's my take on this whole discussion:

First and foremost, if any of the moderators have to edit any more name-calling or outright flames, we will give that person a time-out. If you're going to act like a child, expect to get treated like one. So, if you see any flames, REPORT the post and ignore the comments. The post will be either deleted or edited and it makes it a pain to go find all the ones who quoted it.

Now, when the topic was made and contained the very first Draynor sig posted here at RuneWeb, I saw it and did nothing. RuneWeb will NOT stop you from using another fansite's sig if you so choose. As long as a signature adheres to our rules, we will allow it.

I did not remove the picture of the sig even though I knew that people here would start using it. And yes, I was curious enough to go to the site and see what mine would look like. What I found was a very limited variety available and thought it was a direct rip-off of RuneWeb's signatures.

A poll to see which one people like most? Sorry but I think that is pointless. You will get people voting one way or the other due to loyalty or personal involvement instead of on the merits of each signature. That fact alone will invalidate any results.

Just for the record, I would be willing to bet that it would be about a 90% to 10% split in favor of RuneWeb if you post a poll here and the reverse if you post it at Draynor.

But here is one more thing for all of you to think about: Using a rival fansite's signature here means that many members of RuneWeb will view you as being disloyal to this site. Not that big of a deal but I think that it is highly likely it will affect the way that you are treated here. I don't say that it will be on purpose but there is the definite possibility that the subconsious will affect the way that people respond to your post.

Being totally honest here I will tell you that there are some posts I have seen that caused a negative feeling simply because of seeing a Draynor sig appended to the post.

So use whatever sig you want but I will tell you that RuneWeb members will probably not cut you any slack.

But what im saying is that after we make our sigs better, we can all put draynor sigs out of our mind because no one will want them anymore so they will stop trying to take over. Im glad you like my idea on the poll.

I am in no mood to begin making signatures that look like copies of Draynor's. What I plan to do is stick to the basics and keep it in the RuneWeb style. The poll idea would indeed be invalidated because of loyalties to RuneWeb, and in a sense there's no way that a valid poll could reach an agreeable consensus.

Yeah well, I'm gonna go with what Baak said, it is pretty pointless, because on hindsight I didn't really think that "Yeah maybe we'll have a fair poll" I thought all the people would go with RuneWeb thus eliminating the Draynor sigs.

Baak is also right about other users not cutting any slack about using the Draynor sigs. This topic can be used as a discussion topic, but should also be used as an example of the way you present yourself here on RuneWeb.

If you use a RuneWeb sig, I would think that no other members would have any problem with that, but that just has to do with the SIG if you are having problems with any other members on the forum for other reason, the mods are always on call for any sort of personal abuse.

If you use a Draynor sig, you may have some problems, and this is not our fault, the whole thing with Draynor sigs is, our staff here spent hours on the RuneWeb dynamic sigs, and it probably doesn't make them happy that you are using the unoriginal Draynor sigs. I am NOT saying the staff will flame you, it's more of a guilt trip I'm trying to give you.

So it's up to you guys, do with this what you will.

Well you could make some new sigs with more graphic back grounds That would be cool to have some with metalic colors and stuff.

Ok, you 2 have had more than your say and this really is not a chat room. Let's give it a rest and let some other people post their thoughts please.

And Free4ever? If you do decide to post on another forum to "give them a piece of your mind," please remember that if you mention RuneWeb, you are representing us and should post accordingly.

What we do NOT want is a flame war between the 2 sites.

Nope. If you're using RuneWeb, then you'll be treated as if nothing has happened. If you're using Draynor.net, then others may look down upon you.

So...

• The lack of black outlines on the icons appeals to me, a bit.
• The white font doesn't look too bad, perhaps a choice between black and white text?
• The font for the name is pretty... new?

That's just my opinions for improvements. Obviously, many others can have other opinions on what they prefer.

As for the pictures of characters, I believe all of theirs can be easily obtained. Prayer Cape and Castle War Armour/Hood/Cape could be a bit harder though. So, nothing special.

I think your missing the point. The point is not because it is from another fan site, the point is that is is a clear ripoff of our very own signatures and every time one shows up here it is a slap in the face to to the Runeweb staff that worked hard to make them.
Kind sir, I ask you, how would you feel if you worked for hours on something(whether it was literature, art, whatever) and them somebody came and changed what you created just the slightest bit and said they created it without giving you any credit. Would it really be "immature" to be a little upset?

I'd also just like to clarify that we are not going to be baning people who use them.
All I'm saying is that it is your choice as to whether or not you want to disrespect Runeweb by using one of these Draynor signatures.

ya but im only 10 so.....i really dont care much sorry hehehe

Whoever uses/made the draynor sigs are complete and udder idiots. They are easily the most pathetic excuse ever for a signature. Small "handicapped" children could make a better signature with a paint brush and their flapping arm. They have absolutely no style what-so-ever and completely stole their design from RuneWeb. Only idiots who are absolutely blind to any art would use one of those crappy, waste of effort, sigs. If you are using one, please, either use a real signature or leave runeweb.net for good. You are an idiot.
