If there were to exist some form of "asylumite only" sig, premium only, smaller than the ffxi and wow ones, and requireing that someone have at least "x" posts in Asylum before they could display it, would that be something that people would want / use? I'm thinking no stats, just your name and "Asylumite", maybe a background change based on post count, somehting like that.

If you have to claim to the world that you're an assylumite with a lame *** sig banner then you're not an assylumite.

If you have to have a sig to be recognized as an asylumite then you are a **** poor asylumite. There would also be the worry of having people spam posts in the asylum in order to get the sig. If you want to reward long time posters (asylumers and non asylumers alike) with the ability to have custom sigs or sigs designed for them that would be cool though.


I still believe that premium users should be able to have signatures in much the same way forum avatars work. It would be simple to forum moderate much like avatars are and it would be a selling point for premium access.

I say go for it. Say, 8000 posts with most being in the Asylum. Nothing says elitism like a gold star or flashy badge.

I'd have quoted Bhodi's, but Mental beat him to it and did it with more brevity.

If you are willing to do it in a case by case basis to ensure they are really Assylumites and not some moogle fUcker or spam monkey : sure, why hell not? It's your time you are spending on it.

I can't believe that most of you are passing on the ability to be true elitist bastards.

I don't know you at all anymore.

Are you saying we need a custom sig in order to fullfill being elitist bastards? If that's the case this place really has gone down-hill.

The status of a poster would have to be decided by council vote, in any case.

I'm not saying we'd need a sig to proclaim that we post in the Asylum. I meant that if we could have something that not many others could have, then why the hell not?

if it weren't 5:45 a.m. and I had had some coffee, I could come up with a better argument.

I think a good 1500-2000 of my posts are/were here.


I'd go for it, but I can't have premium as you guys refuse to put the shorter premiums choices under the paypal option.

So you guys need a thread to ask if we want a sig to show we belong to the board we're posting on?

This place has really gone down-hill recently...

Though I think it's quite a cool idea, personally...

Redphoenixxx, Asylumite extraodinaire!

Right, better start spamming my way to 8k, then...

Have the Top 5 Asylum Posters make a list of those allowed to show the sig?

How bout instead of a sig, you do something more subtle, like change the color of the stars?

So when people ask, you could reply, "ohh that... I dont know."

Wouldn't it be more elitist to not even acknowledge your symbol of elitism, that way those that wanted the symbol would not have the ability to gain it...

I'd say put an "A" within the stars but thats reserved for Admins already. Maybe have a custom Asylum title like Princess or The Charming?
