UDWiki:Administration/Policy Discussion/Blinking Text Is Annoying

Ban blinking text. There is no need for it. I don't like it. Make it go away. From everything just sigs.

For bob:

The signature policy will be changed thusly:

What wouldn't be allowed

• Signatures which have images higher then 14 pixels high.
• Signatures which generally break the wiki in some way either through formatting or other means.
• Signatures which impersonate another user.
• Signatures which link to any of the following special pages: Special:Userlogout or Special:BlockIP.
• Signatures which link to external links that perform malicious actions (closing the browser for example).
• Signatures which contain images larger then 50kb.
• Signatures which contain blinking text or images that mimic blinking text.

12. -- Blinking text is dreadful, and should only be used in applicable (and rare) cases. Knowing you idiots (only a few of you...), that will never happen, so I am fully for this.--The Shoemaker ^{Talk Red Faction} 20:11, 14 June 2009 (BST)
13. - I debated making a blinking yes here, but thought I would regret it. --Haliman - Talk 18:45, 14 June 2009 (BST)
14. - Only because of the "images that mimic blinking" part. Blinking text can be disabled in FF, and I'm guessing the same for other browsers. --Bob Boberton ^{TF / DW} 19:02, 14 June 2009 (BST)
15. - All the way.--SirArgo ^Talk 19:21, 14 June 2009 (BST)

17. Yes, this is needed.-- Adward  22:42, 14 June 2009 (BST)
18. Yes, fine.. just as long as it doesn't affect my right to have jiggly boobies in my siggie----Sexualharrison 23:35, 14 June 2009 (BST)
